Research, Design and Application of High Performance Earthquake Resistant Precast Structures in Indonesia


Abstract eng:
High performance earthquake resistant precast concrete structures are innovations among emerging technologies capable of achieving high performance structural systems at low cost. There are two main components included in this technology, i.e., unbounded post tension tendon and mild reinforced concrete as energy dissipater. Unbonded post tension tendon may be provided at column-beam connection, and at connections of vertical components or connections of vertical and horizontal components. Unbonded post tension tendon is construed to provide re-centering effect so as to prevent residual deformations after earthquake event. Various technologies of this type have been developed and applied in California, Latin America, as well as in New Zealand. One structure using this kind of technology survived the 2010-2011 earthquake swarm in Christchurch, New Zealand. Since 2013, Indonesian precast and prestressed industry has been developing this kind of technology. This paper describes the significance of the research supporting the development of this emerging technology in Indonesia. The paper also describes some examples of application that have been achieved thus far.
