Research status and application of prefabricated concrete frame joints

Abstract

Prefabricated concrete structure has the advantages of less energy consumption, easy quality control, fast construction speed, good construction site environment, and less contraction crack. As one of the important development directions of building structure at home and abroad, it is not only conducive to the development of China s construction industrialization and the improvement of production efficiency, but also greatly reduces the construction waste. The design of the connection between beam and column in the core plays an important role in the normal use and seismic performance improvement of the whole concrete structure. This paper reviews the research progress of prefabricated concrete frame joints both at home and abroad, introduce some applications of new connection, and analyses the merit and demerit of various connection methods and future development trend, in order to provide design reference for the engineering application of prefabricated concrete structure.
