Analysis of the Existing Seismic-Resistant Concrete Structure

The seismic-resistant concrete structure is an important component in the buildings and plays a key role in many countries, like Japan, Philippine and America. Different from traditional ways, the use of precast concrete in those areas is feasible now. Regardless of the progress in the area of precast concrete, the major problem of joint technology persists. This paper aims to review the existing precast concrete structures and some other seismic-resistant concrete structures. It is concluded from this review that the performance of precast concrete is the same as traditional methods and has its benefits in construction and economic aspects.
