LATERAL LOAD TESTS OF UNBONDED POST-TENSIONED PRECAST CONCRETE WALLS. IN: LARGE-SCALE STRUCTURAL TESTING

The paper discusses the behavior of unbonded posttensioned precast concrete walls subjected to static monitonic and cyclic lateral loads. Dynamic analysis results indicate that unbonded posttensioned precast walls have large flexural ductility and self-centering capacity without sustaining significant damage and excessive drift under moderate to severe earthquakes.
