The seismic resistance of an innovative precast reinforced concrete shear wall with vertical
plates along its bottom edge to be bolted to plates protruding from the foundation was tested …

Precast concrete shear walls are used to resist lateral loads in low-to medium-rise buildings.
This paper introduces an innovated joining technique for these precast walls that will reduce …

This paper studies the seismic performance of precast concrete shear walls with horizontal
bolted joints. A fiber-based finite-element analysis (FEA) model was developed to simulate …

In this paper, the seismic behaviors of four precast shear wall specimens and one cast-in-
place shear wall specimen are investigated by pseudo-static test method. For the precast …

To solve the fabrication problems of traditional precast shear walls caused by too many
connections joints, a new type of precast shear wall with unconnected vertically distributed …

Strengthening of the structures with external shear walls recently has become an attractive
alternative compared to conventional strengthening methods. These external shear walls …

This paper discusses the seismic performance of nine full-scale shear walls including seven
precast specimens and two cast-in-place specimens. The precast specimens were designed …

A novel precast concrete (PC) shear wall was proposed by disconnecting the vertical rebars
in the middle zone of the wall and using grouted sleeve connections for section steels at wall …

The objective of this study is to examine the effect of different wall-to-base connections on
the flexural performance of precast alllightweight aggregate concrete (ALWAC) shear walls …

This paper discusses the lateral load behavior of two, 0.40-scale, hybrid, precast concrete
shear wall test specimens and the behavior of a third precast specimen designed to emulate …
