Resumen

The bearing capacity of the grouted connections is investigated through the model test and numerical simulation with two rates (low and high) and four kinds of specimens: shorter without shear keys, shorter with shear keys, longer with shear keys, and conical with shear keys. It reveals that the bearing characteristics of the specimen of longer with shear keys is worse than the specimen of conical with shear keys, but better than the specimen of shorter with shear keys. Moreover, the bearing characteristics of the specimen of shorter without shear keys is the worst one.
