Abstract

The performance of an Industrialised Building System (IBS) consists of prefabricated reinforced concrete components, is greatly affected by the behaviour of the connection between beam and columns. The structural characteristics parameters of a beam-to-column connection like rotational stiffness, strength and ductility can be explained by load-rotation relationship of a full scale H-subframe under gravitational load. Furthermore, the connection

Key Words

Industrialised Building System (IBS); rotational behaviour; precast hybrid-steel concrete; experimental test; beam-to-column connection
