Experimental study on tensile performance of horizontal joint bolted connections in fully assembled modular construction reinforced concrete by RAN Mingming, KOU Guangyun, XIONG Feng, ZHANG Dongdong, LI Wei

“…According to the calculation theory for punching shear failure bearing capacity, the reduced peak load-bearing capacity of Mode III compared to Mode II was attributed to the reduction in the effective height of the punching shear cone caused by the crushing zone, consequently resulting in decreased anti-punching shear capacity. In Mode IV, when the load was increased to 134.2 kN, abrupt fracture failure of the concrete at the cross-section above the operating hand-hole of the specimen was observed, with limited cracking. …”
