Seismic Performance of Precast Double-Skin Composite Shear Wall with Horizontal Connection Region

This paper proposed a novel, precast double-skin composite (DSC) shear wall, which was composed of two precast parts at the factory and welding and pouring grouting material on site. One monolithic cast-in-place DSC shear wall specimen and two precast DSC shear wall specimens with different axial compression ratios were subjected to reverse cyclic loading tests. The results indicated that the failure mode of both the cast-in-place and precast DSC shear wall shear walls were compression-bending failures, and the damage range of specimens within a height range of 100 mm to 200 mm from the bottom of the DSC shear wall. The load-bearing capacity of the precast specimen was 6.3% higher than that of the monolithic counterpart, but its ductility was reduced by 16%. The precast DSC shear wall with better casting quality and easier site installation exhibited a satisfactory seismic performance on a par with that of the monolithic cast-in-place DSC shear wall. Under higher axial compression ratios, the bearing capacity and energy dissipation of the precast DSC shear wall specimen significantly improved due to the enhanced confinement effect. Finite element (FE) models clarified the stress and deformation mechanisms between the exterior steel plate and the infill concrete. Finally, the key parameters affecting the seismic bearing capacity of the precast DSC shear wall were identified through FE parameter analysis.
