Behavior of a 6-Story Office Building Under Moderate Seismicity

这个项目是北方和 卡罗莱纳州立大学 内布拉斯加州和LEAP Associates，Inc.，一部分 PRESSS第二阶段协调研究 项目旨在研究 典型的东部预制混凝土系统 和美国中部。 目标建筑物 低层预制混凝土 低到中等强度区域的结构 地震活动 研究任务将在 以下阶段：系统分析、实验 面板连接的试验研究 框架连接和系统的研究 设计方面（生产和建设）。 该项目将侧重于系统，而不是 只限于孤立的细节， 最终产品可以容易地应用于 工业的需要。

This project is a joint effort between the North Carolina State University, the University of Nebraska, and LEAP Associates, Inc., as part of the PRESSS Phase II Coordinated Research Program to investigate the seismic behavior of precast concrete systems typical of the eastern and central United States. Buildings targeted by this study are low-rise precast concrete structures in zones of low to moderate seismicity. Research tasks will be conducted in the following stages: system analysis, experimental investigation of panel connections, experimental investigation of frame connections, and system design aspects (production and construction). The project will focus on systems rather than being limited to isolated details in order that the end product may be readily applied to the needs of industry.
