Abstract:
The behavior of connection between precast panels is important as it controls the failure
mode of the shear wall. Therefore, it is aimed to test the behavior of different type of precast
panel connections in this study. One monolithic reference model and two precast panel models
having different horizontal connection details were produced. The behavior of connections was
tested under reversed-cyclic lateral loads. It was concluded that welded connections can be
designed in high and normal ductility levels.
