PSEUDODYNAMIC TESTS ON FULL SCALE PROTOTYPES OF PRECAST STUCTURES

摘要

The paper presents the results of pseudodynamic and cyclic tests performed at ELSA Laboratory in Ispra on full scale prototypes of precast structures. The typical frame system used for one storey industrial buildings is treated. The results give clear indications on the behaviour of such structures in terms of seismic capacity, ductility resources related to reinforcement details and role of the different construction elements (connections, roof diaphragm, cladding panels).
