  • Behaviour of grouted dowels used in precast concrete connections

    by Eduardo Aurélio Barros Aguiar, Ellen Kellen Bellucio, Mounir Khalil El Debs

    This research deals with the behaviour of grouted dowels used in beam‐to‐column connections in precast concrete structures. The research focuses primarily on the theoretical and experimental analysis of the resistance mechanism of the dowels. The experimental programme included 15 models for analysing the following variations in dowel parameters: a) dowel diameters of 16, 20 and 25 mm, b) dowel inclinations of 0° (i.e. perpendicular to the interface), 45° and 60°, c) compressive strength of classes C35 and C50 for the concrete adjacent to the dowels, and d) the absence or presence of compressive loads normal to the interface. The experimental results indicate that the ultimate capacity and shear stiffness of the inclined dowels are significantly higher than those of the perpendicular dowels. Based on these results, an analytical model is proposed that considers the influence of the parameters studied regarding the capacity of the dowel.
