Conventional precast segmental columns with seismic resistance design consist of only flat concrete segments with prestress tendon. This is because friction between adjacent segments is sufficient to resist the lateral forces from earthquake-induced actions. However, the friction between segments is not necessarily sufficient to resist lateral impact loads such as vehicle impact the column might experience during its service life. This article investigates the effectiveness of using concrete shear key in segments of precast segmental column in resisting the lateral impact loading. The precast reinforced concrete segments were designed with concrete shear keys to improve the column shear resistance capacity and minimize the relative displacement between adjacent segments. Two groups of segmental columns with and without shear key were designed and tested using a pendulum impact system. The effectiveness of shear key in resisting lateral impact loads was analysed by comparing the performance of the two groups of segmental columns. The testing results revealed that by introducing concrete shear key to segmental column, the relative displacement between adjacent segments could be effectively reduced. However, the large concrete shear key increased stress concentration in the concrete segments. Relatively, more severe damages to concrete segments were found on the columns with shear key. Further improvements on shear key designs should be made for better performance of segmental columns against impact loading.
