This paper proposes an analytical approach to predict compressive arch action (CAA) of precast reinforced concrete (PC) beams subjected to middle column removal scenario (MCRS). A beam-column joint with non-seismic detailing is employed in the prototype PC structures, which is a typical joint widely...
