Experimental Research on Antiseismic Performance of High-Strength Concrete High-Shear Walls with Built-In Steel Plates

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019
To study the antiseismic performance of the high-strength concrete composite shear wall with built-in steel plates, an experiment on a high-strength concrete composite shear wall with four built-in steel plates (SPRCW-1∼4) was set up.

Seismic Performance of a Novel Precast Shear Wall with Mixed Wet and Dry Steel Plate–Bolt Connections: A Finite Element Study

Mathematics
This paper proposes a hybrid steel plate–bolt dry and wet jointing method, where the dry jointing part is a steel plate–bolt connector joint and the wet jointing part is a cast-in-place concrete.
