Abstract
In this paper, cyclic loading tests are conducted in order to certify the mechanical behaviors of the frame structures with PC Mild-Press-Joint. Two kinds of series specimens are prepared and experimented. Specimen BF Series was beam yield preceding type. Specimen JS Series suffered larger shear force in the joint panel. Both BF Series and JS Series were of two kinds, i.e. a partial frame using PC Mild-Press-Joint and RC-structured partial frame. The following conclusions were drawn from the study where partial frame experiments were conducted using prestressing strands and verification was obtained by comparison with RC frames. 1) The damage on P/C MILD-PRESS-JOINT frame is very small as compared with RC frame. 2) Shear crack strength of the joint panel cloud be evaluated by taking into account the column prestress and beam prestress. 3) Increase in shear strength of the joint by about 40% of the initial anchoring force can be expected for using the current specimens.
