Comparative Study on Seismic Performance Between Improved Joint with Steel-Strand-Embedded Anchorage and SCOPE Joint

The structure comprising precast prestressed concrete components (SCOPE joint) is widely used in prefabricated buildings. For this type of joint, insufficient anchorage of U-shaped reinforcing bars can lead to premature core failure. To address this, finite element models of SCOPE joints are developed in ABAQUS for par...
