The development of strong and stiff lateral load-resisting systems (LLRS) is essential for mid-
rise and high-rise timber buildings. On the other hand, within a seismic design philosophy …

In a non-emulative precast shear wall structures, joints are the key to influence the overall
mechanical performance under seismic actions. While wet joints are widely used in the …

Dry-type connections have gained considerable popularity worldwide due to their superior
construction efficiency and quality. However, a significant drawback of most conventional dry …

A novel structural system based on precast reinforced concrete (RC) shear wall panels
mutually connected vertically using T-connectors and horizontally using friction-bearing …

This study investigated the seismic performance of an innovative semi-precast concrete
sandwich shear wall (SCSSW) system. The system consists of two precast reinforced …

In the present study, an experimental study was performed to investigate the direct shear
behavior of precast panel connections using steel fiber-reinforced cementitious mortar shear …

At present, numerous experiments have been conducted on precast shear walls with energy
dissipation devices, which have proved the effectiveness of this approach. Previous …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to show that the growing global trend of quality
assurance indicates the potential of precast concrete (PC) to improve construction quality …

Precast concrete construction is frequently preferred all over the world because of its rapid
