Abstract
This paper describes results of shaking table tests on precast prestressed concrete frames. The frame with bonded beams specimen and the frame with unbonded beam specimen were tested to observe and investigate their structural capacities including their ultimate state. Input wave were artificial one under 75Kine and actual measurement on Kobe earthquake at JR Takatori in final. The results of tests indicate that precast prestressed concrete frames had the high ductility and returnable capacities. The bond beam specimen was stronger than the unbonded one. The lateral displacement of all frames was mainly occurred at the connected potions between members. Pushover analysis can roughly simulate the test results. The model of skeleton curves was assumed as tri-linear calculated using the fiber model analysis.
