Abstract:

Couplers are not allowed to be used in bridge column plastic hinges in high seismic regions. This prevents their use as a precast column connection. This ban is because of a lack of systematic test data on the coupler performance, limited experimental studies on mechanically spliced columns, and engineering precautions.
