Abstract : The bolted prefabricated concrete wall is widely used in construction due to its simple connection and rapid construction. The quasi-static tests of seven full-scale dry-type bolted prefabricated concrete walls (including four steel-plate-type bolted walls and three through-connection-type bolted walls) were conducted. The test results indicated that the bolted prefabricated wall would spread out at horizontal connection firstly and then the wall had rigid rotation, resulting in a lower lateral
