  • Abstract
Seven reinforced concrete Beam-Column sandwich joint specimens were tested under cyclic load. The performances of these specimens consisting of loads resistance, deflection, ductility, displacement, energy dissipation could satisfy the requirement of structures for seismic design. The phenomena that concrete in joint region was crushed by axial load or eccentric load were never observed,and final failure for a multitude of specimens occurred by shear force. Though a few of performances such as beam bar anchorage capacity were not as well as those of traditional joints ,it is feasible for sandwich joints used while establishing structures.
