The essential difference between precast concrete structures and in situ concrete structures lies in the precast concrete panel structres, it is necessary to understand the bahavior of joints and their implications regarding overall structural behavior. Form such a point of view, this experimental study observes the components and joint behavior under the stress states expected of precast concrete panel structures subjected to lateral loads. 2 full-scale subassemblages were fabricated and tested. The test results show that the characteristics of horizontsl joints and wall coupling beams mainly govern the whole hahavior of P.C. structres.
