The mortise-and-tenon joint prefabricated connection combines the assembly form of mortise-and-tenon joints and cast-in-place wet joints. It achieves reliable joint connections through small joint depths and lap-spliced reinforcement lengths. To study the impact resistance and damage characteristics...
