Abstract:
A system for wall to wall connection for precast shear walls includes a plurality of horizontal and vertical reinforcement bars configured within the precast shear wall. The system also includes a plurality of connecting tubes fixed between the spacing provided between the reinforcement bars, a plurality of openings provided between the plurality of connecting tubes, a plurality of grout tubes fixed above the plurality of openings to grout the openings after completing confection of the shear walls, a plurality of connecting bars capable of being inserted within the connecting tubes of the precast shear wall, when erected, a connecting device for inserting through the openings to grip the connecting bars, and a driving device to supply power to the drive for causing rotation of the drive/manual action and, thereby, sending the connecting bar in a translational motion from the first shear wall to the second shear wall.

Claim (Index 5):
A method for connecting precast first and second shear walls, comprising:\n fixing connecting tubes in the shear walls at pre-defined locations, wherein the connecting tubes are disposed front to front in the shear walls when the shear walls are placed next to each other; placing connecting bars in the connecting tubes of the first shear wall when the first shear wall is erected; erecting the second shear wall next the first shear wall to align the connecting tubes of the second shear wall to centre-lines of the connecting tubes of the first shear wall; fitting a connecting device at an opening in the first shear wall to grip at least one of the connecting bars; rotating a head of the connecting device, thereby translationally moving the at least one of the connecting bars from the first shear wall to the second shear wall; and grouting openings and a gap between the first shear wall and the second shear wall.
