Pseudo-Dynamic Tests on Frame–Shear Wall Structure with Precast Concrete Diaphragm

In order to study how to improve the spatial action of precast monolithic composite floor slabs, and examine replacing the cast-in-place surface layer for reducing the weight of structure, we used pseudo-dynamic tests on one-quarter scale models of two-span and three-story frame structures. The lateral load tests compared the stresses and displacements with a cast-in-place floor frame–shear wall structure (SJ1) and a precast monolithic floor frame–shear wall structure with X horizontal braces at the bottom of the floor (SJ2). The results show the X horizontal braces can improve the spatial action. Structural integrity (SJ2) as well as the effective transmission of the horizontal force can be ensured by additional X bracing at the bottom of the rigidity of the floor without a cast-in-place concrete topping. The results show that X horizontal braces more effectively transfer horizontal stress, which provides a beneficial reference for similar research.
