Hi! I would like to raise a question regarding precast wall-to-beam/slab connections.

In general, is the connection presented in the attachment enough for the wall to be securely placed in the beam/slab, for as long as the development length is taken into consideration?


Thanks to those who will reply :)

Apparently, cast in place corbel and slabs is supported on PC wall planks.. Will you post more details to get the full picture ?
I would not prefer the use of precast wall elements for LRS ..

its basically a corbel design. a bit more reinforcing is needed, but the jist is a tension bar to take the load. So if developed, it works.
Check PCI handbook, they have a design details and example calc.
