A novel structural system based on precast reinforced concrete (RC) shear wall panels mutually connected vertically using T-connectors and horizontally using friction-bearing devices (FBDs) mounted on interposed steel columns was recently proposed. To investigate the seismic performance of the proposed precast RC shear wall system, three subassembly specimens simulating a single construction modulus were constructed and tested by considering different slot length and numbers of FBDs under quasi-static cyclic loading. Ductile flexural failure at drift of around 4.2% and load of around 265 kN was attained for both specimens with long-slot FBDs, while shear failure after moderate flexural ductility was attained at drift of around 3.8% and higher load of around 368.3 kN for specimens with short-slot FBDs, showing not-direct dependence of the load capacity on the number of FBDs installed. However, the higher number of FBDs allowed for higher hysteretic damping with a 27.3% increase in dissipated energy through cycles.

The present paper addresses the analysis of structural vibration transmission in the presence of struc- tural joints. The problem is tackled from a numerical point of view, analyzing some scenarios by using finite element models. The numerical results obtained making use of this process are then compared with those evaluated using the EN 12354 standard vibration reduction index concept. It is shown that, even for the simplest cases, the behavior of a structural joint is complex and evidences the frequency dependence. Comparison with results obtained by empirical formulas reveals that those of the standards cannot accurately reproduce the expected behavior, and thus indicate that alternative complementary calculation procedures are required. A simple methodology to estimate the difference between numerical and standard predictions is here proposed allowing the calculation of an adaptation term that makes both approaches converge. This term was found to be solution-dependent, and thus should be evaluated for each structure.
