BEHAVIOUR OF A BEAM TO COLUMN DRY JOINT FOR PRECAST CONCRETE ELEMENTS
In Italy, precast concrete structures are traditionally designed as moment resisting frames with plastic hinges occurring at the column base and beams hinged to the columns. A ductile moment resisting connection between the column and the beam can provide the advantage of designing a seismic resisting frame which can develop plastic hinges at the beam-column joints, besides those at the column base. This paper aims at presenting the results of experimental tests concerning the cyclic behaviour of a particular beam-column dry connection for precast concrete elements. The joint is characterized by the use of high strength steel bars and of a fibre reinforced grout pad in the Z shaped beam-column interface, increasing the shear resistance of the connection. The experimental results show a good performance of the joint, in term of resistance, ductility and energy dissipation, with little damage observed in the connected members.
