Description
A prefabricated seamless connection structure for shear walls Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a prefabricated shear wall technology solution, and more particularly to a seamless connection structure for prefabricated shear walls. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of industrialized construction, prefabricated buildings have been widely used in residential and public buildings due to their advantages such as high construction efficiency, controllable quality, and low environmental pollution. As a core lateral force resisting component in building structures, the connection performance of prefabricated shear walls directly affects the overall stability, seismic resistance, and service life of the building. However, existing prefabricated shear wall connection technologies still have the following prominent problems: Insufficient joint sealing: Traditional shear walls mostly use simple tongue-and-groove butt joints or bolt connections, and the joints are prone to small gaps due to installation errors or material shrinkage. These gaps not only affect the building's appearance but also lead to problems such as water seepage and poor airtightness. Especially in humid or rainy areas, this may cause durability risks such as concrete corrosion and steel reinforcement rust; Limited seismic energy dissipation capacity: Under earthquake or wind loads, existing connection structures (such as grouted sleeve connections) mainly rely on rigid force transmission and lack effective energy dissipation mechanisms. Joints are prone to cracking due to stress concentration, leading to a decrease in the overall structural integrity and even causing localized damage. Construction is complex and unreliable: some technologies achieve connections through multi-step grouting or welding, but problems such as grout shrinkage and incomplete grouting are common. For example, the shear wall connection disclosed in patent application CN202321439633.3, which uses rebar insertion and overall grouting, simplifies the assembly process, but internal micro-cracks may still form after the grout layer shrinks, and the lack of dynamic sealing design results in significant performance degradation after long-term use. Durability and maintenance costs are high: existing sealing materials (such as ordinary rubber strips) are easily affected by environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation and temperature differences, leading to aging and failure, requiring frequent maintenance. Furthermore, traditional connection structures require stringent construction precision; installation deviations may cause joint misalignment, further exacerbating the risk of seal failure.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, the industry urgently needs a prefabricated shear wall connection solution that combines seamless connection, high seismic performance, convenient construction, and long-term durability. Based on this background, this application proposes an innovative seamless connection structure. Through a comprehensive design including stepped interlocking, multiple grouting channels, elastic compression sealing, and weather-resistant protection, it effectively overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies and provides technical support for the high-quality development of prefabricated buildings.

[0010] In some embodiments, an elastic rubber strip is pre-embedded at the bottom of the mating groove. The elastic rubber strip is compressed during assembly to fill the interlocking gap and achieve physical seamlessness.
[0011] In some embodiments, the mating protrusion and the mating groove have a stepped sawtooth interlocking structure, and each stepped surface is provided with a micro-sloping surface with an inclination angle of 3°-5°.

[0020] 1. Overall structural composition and connection method
[0021] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, this embodiment provides a seamless connection structure for prefabricated shear walls, including a first prefabricated shear wall 100 and a second prefabricated shear wall 200. The bottom of the first prefabricated shear wall 100 is provided with a mating protrusion, and the top of the second prefabricated shear wall 200 is provided with a mating groove that matches the mating protrusion. The two are seamlessly connected through the following design:
[0022] Stepped serrated interlocking structure:
[0023] The mating protrusions and mating grooves adopt a stepped sawtooth interlocking design, with each step being 30mm high and 20mm deep. The step surface has a slight bevel with an inclination angle of 3°-5°.
[0024] Its working principle is: stepped interlocking increases the contact area and disperses shear force; the micro-sloping surface guides natural fit during assembly and reduces installation errors.
[0025] Its advantages include: reducing construction difficulty, avoiding local stress concentration, and enhancing shear resistance and structural integrity.
[0026] 2. Grouting channel and sealing design
[0027] As shown in Figure 2, the upper grouting channel 302 and the lower grouting channel 301 are:
[0028] The bottom surface of the mating protrusion is provided with multiple upper grouting channels 302, and the bottom surface of the mating groove is provided with corresponding lower grouting channels 301; after assembly, the openings of the upper and lower grouting channels 301 overlap to form a continuous channel.
[0029] The top of the grouting channel 302 is inclined, and the grouting port 303 is located at the highest point of the channel.
[0030] Its working principle is: the inclined design uses gravity to guide the flow of grout, ensuring that the grout fills the channel; the highest grouting port 303 avoids air bubbles and improves density.
[0031] Its advantages are: improved grouting efficiency and reduced cavities and defects.
[0032] Grouting material and filler blocks:
[0033] The grouting material uses non-shrink epoxy resin with added micro-expansion agents (such as aluminum powder), and there are no shrinkage cracks after curing.
[0034] The grouting port 303 on the side wall of the first precast shear wall 100 is provided with a filling groove 400, and a lightweight polymer filling block is embedded in the groove. After grouting is completed, the grouting port 303 is covered.
[0035] Its working principle is as follows: epoxy resin grout is injected through grouting port 303, filling the upper and lower channels and curing; the filling block seals the grouting port 303 to prevent external erosion.
[0036] Its advantages are: the grouting layer is dense and seamless, the filling block is aesthetically pleasing and protects the grouting port 303.
[0037] 3. Multiple sealing and durability design
[0038] As shown in Figure 2, the elastic rubber strip 500 and the sealant layer:
[0039] An EPDM rubber strip (Shore hardness 60-70) is pre-embedded at the bottom of the mating groove. During assembly, the compression amount is ≥5mm to fill the interlocking gap.
[0040] The outer side of the rubber strip is coated with polyurethane waterproof sealant, and the outer surface of the joint is covered with a silicone weather-resistant adhesive layer.
[0041] Its working principle is as follows: the rubber strip provides an initial seal after compression; polyurethane glue fills the micropores; and silicone glue resists ultraviolet rays and temperature difference deformation.
[0042] Its advantages are: triple sealing ensures long-term waterproofing and airtightness, extending the service life of the structure.
[0043] 4. Assembly process and structural advantages
[0044] Assembly steps:
[0045] The second precast shear wall 200 is hoisted, and the docking protrusion is embedded into the docking groove. The stepped interlocking and the micro-sloping surface are used for automatic alignment.
[0046] Inject non-shrink epoxy resin grout through grouting port 303 until the grout overflows from filling groove 400.
[0047] Install the filler block to seal the grouting port 303, and apply polyurethane sealant and silicone weather-resistant sealant.
[0048] The structural advantages of this technical solution are:
[0049] Seamless connection: The stepped interlocking, elastic rubber strip 500, grout and sealant work together to eliminate physical gaps and visual seams.
[0050] High durability: EPDM rubber is resistant to aging, epoxy grouting material has no shrinkage, and silicone sealant has strong weather resistance and can adapt to extreme environments.
[0051] Convenient construction: Standardized components are prefabricated in the factory, and only alignment, grouting and sealing are required on site, which shortens the construction period by 30%.
[0052] Seismic performance: The stepped interlocking structure disperses seismic forces, while the elastic rubber and grouting layer buffer energy, enhancing the overall seismic resistance of the structure.
[0053] This prefabricated shear wall seamless connection structure achieves efficient and reliable seamless connection through the following core designs: stepped interlocking: enhances shear resistance and reduces installation errors; multi-channel grouting: ensures tight joints and improves overall integrity; multiple sealing: elastic rubber, sealant, and weather-resistant adhesive work together for protection; material optimization: non-shrink epoxy resin and aging-resistant rubber extend service life.
[0054] This structure features high construction efficiency, excellent seismic performance, and reliable waterproofing and sealing, making it suitable for harsh environments such as high-rise buildings and earthquake-prone areas, and yielding significant economic and social benefits.
