Abstract

Precast concrete shear walls are capable of providing preferable lateral strength and stiffness under earthquake loading and thus they are frequently employed in the moderate and high seismic risk regions. Guided by the building industrialization advocated by the government of China, domestic scientific research institutions and construction enterprises have carried out a large number of basic experimental and theoretical researches on precast concrete shear walls, especially emphasizing the horizontal connections between upper and lower precast shear wall panels. Meanwhile, numerous attempts to apply precast concrete shear wall structure was conducted in China. In this paper, the research and application progress of precast concrete shear wall in China were summarized and the key problems existing in the development of precast concrete shear wall in China were also presented.
