In this study, experiments and numerical analyses were carried out to examine the flexural and shear performance of a double composite wall (DCW) manufactured using a precast concrete (PC) method. One flexural specimen and three shear specimens were fabricated, and the effect of the bolts used for the assembly of the PC panels on the shear strength of the DCW was investigated. The failure mode, flexural and shear behavior, and composite behavior of the PC panel and cast-in-place (CIP) concrete were analyzed in detail, and the behavioral characteristics of the DCW were clearly identified by comparing the results of tests with those obtained from a non-linear flexural analysis and finite element analysis. Based on the test and analysis results, this study proposed a practical equation for reasonably estimating the shear strength of a DCW section composed of PC, CIP concrete, and bolts utilizing the current code equations.

Reinforced concrete (RC) shear wall component is a very important lateral force-resisting member which is widely used in China. Its seismic behavior has a great impact on the seismic performance of the overall structure. Damage of some RC shear wall structures under the earthquake is caused by the damage of shear wall components, So shear wall components are an essential seismic members. However, the test datum are not enough to study the performance of RC shear wall components, Therefore, Finite element simulation of RC shear wall components is performed by software ABAQUS in the paper. Through comparing with the finite element simulation and the test of load - displacement skeleton curve, failure mode and steel bar strain, the result shows that the finite element simulation can more accurately simulate the situation of the test, verifying the finite element simulation is the most important research tool besides test.

The special dry joints for precast prestressed concrete segments are invented in this study toovercome the limitation of conventional dry joints. Eight specimens of special dry joints were madeand subjected to direct shear test. Test parameters comprise concrete compressive strength (normaland high strength concrete) and steel fiber volume added in the special dry joint (0%, 0.5%, and1.0%). Test results revealed that the inclusion of steel fibers remarkably enhanced the shear capacityand ductility index. Failure mode of specimens was changed from shearing off to concrete crackingaround shear key corners, defined as ductile shearing-off failure. Furthermore, the existing equationsfor predicting shear capacity of keyed joints were validated by the experimental results. Amongavailable equations from literatures, the Turmo’s equation yields better prediction of the shearcapacity for the special dry joint made with normal strength concrete.

The optimized-section precast slab (OPS) is a half precast concrete (PC) slab that highlights structural aesthetics while reducing the quantity of materials by means of an efficient cross-sectional configuration considering the distribution of a bending moment. However, since a tapered cross section where the locations of the top and bottom flanges change is formed at the end of the member, stress concentration occurs near the tapered cross section because of the shear force and thus the surrounding region of the tapered cross section may become unintentionally vulnerable. Therefore, in this study, experimental and numerical research was carried out to examine the shear behaviour characteristics and performance of the OPS with a tapered cross section. Shear tests were conducted on a total of eight OPS specimens, with the inclination angle of the tapered cross section, the presence of topping concrete and the amount of shear reinforcement as the main test variables and a reasonable shear-design method for the OPS members was proposed by means of a detailed analysis based on design code and finite-element analysis.
