Seismic performance of precast multi-segment columns with grouted sleeves: Experimental and numerical investigations

This research explores the seismic performance of multi-segment columns, which are gaining attention due to their segmented prefabrication and assembly that address transportation and installation challenges. The main objective is to investigate the effective use of grouted sleeves as connections, both between column segments and to the foundation, in order to achieve satisfactory seismic behavior. To achieve this objective, an experimental …
