Behaviour of pinned beam-to-column connections for precast concrete frames
The connection design plays a vital role in determining the successful of the precast concrete structure. The detailing and structural behaviour of the connection such as beam-to-column connections will affect the strength, stability and constructability as well as load distribution of the structure...
