Seismic Testing of the SAFECAST Three-Storey Precast Building
In the framework of the SAFECAST Project (Performance of Innovative Mechanical Connections in Precast Building Structures Under Seismic Conditions), a full-scale three-storey precast building was subjected to a series of pseudodynamic tests in the European Laboratory for Structural Assessment (ELSA). The mock-up was constructed in such a way that four different structural configurations could be investigated experimentally. Therefore, the behaviour of various parameters like the types of mechanical connections (traditional as well as innovative) and the presence or absence of shear walls along with the framed structure were investigated.
