Experimental study on earthquake-resilient prefabricated cross joints with L-shaped plates

Earthquake-resilient functionality has become a leading issue in seismic engineering, and as an important component of earthquake-resilient, cross joints have become a research hotspot. A new type of earthquake-resilient prefabricated cross joint (ERPCJ) with L-shaped plates for damage control have been proposed in this study. The new type of prefabricated cross joint is constructed of a circular tubular steel column with a cantilever beam, a...
