In recent decades, precast concrete buildings have undergone significant development,
attracting considerable academic attention to their mechanical performances. Unlike cast-in …

Prefabricated reinforced concrete (RC) column-to-foundation connections are typically
located at the critical region of the columns and are subjected to a combination of large …

The lack of seismic capacity of piers leads to bridge collapse in recent earthquakes, such as
the 1994 Northridge (USA), 1995 Kobe (Japan) and 2008 Wenchuan (China) earthquakes …

In the process of strengthening circular concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) stub columns in
servicing period with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), the CFST stub columns are …

The cyclic response of a column to foundation connection system, based on the mechanical
connection between steel shoes embedded into the column base and protruding steel bolts …

The half grouted sleeve connection (HGSC) is widely adopted in the construction of precast
concrete (PC) structures. So far, a few studies have been developed on the mechanical …

Prefabricated assembly technology offers significant benefits for the construction of urban
bridges, including shortened construction periods and reduction of traffic congestion. It can …

Grouted sleeve connections are currently widely adopted in precast concrete structures. For
this kind of connection, there exists a kind of multilayer concrete-grout-concrete joint whose …

The paper shows the results of an experimental campaign aimed at investigating the cyclic
behavior of a column-to-foundation joint for precast concrete elements. The tested …

Precast technologies featuring rapid construction and reduced on-site manpower have been
gaining widespread adoption in the construction industry, particularly in reinforced concrete …
