Though the precast concrete structural systems are being widely used worldwide, in India most of theconstructions are cast-in-situ concrete constructions. The tremendous growth of population in India & limited spaceavailable has led to the demand for multi-storey residential buildings. This demand can be satisfied by the utilization offactory made quality controlled precast units that provides for faster construction leading to economy. Precast concretestructural systems displaying non-linear response characteristics can be broadly classified into two main categories asequivalent monolithic systems and jointed systems. Existence of a topping slab resulted in improvements in the crackingmoment and initial stiffness of hollow-core units. In the present study, seven types of simple mechanical precast beamcolumn connections and a reference monolithic specimen were considered. The monolithic specimens cast in two numberswith the reinforcement detailing as per IS 13920:1993.The seven precast beam column connections were grouped into threecategories. The specimens were classified into three groups with two numbers in each group. They are Type-I connectionsbolt and rod connections, Type-II Connection: cleat angle and stiffened cleat connections and Type-III connections: dowelconnections.
