  1. Failure mode: “B”, beam flexural failure; “BJ”, Beam yielding followed by Joint shear failure; “BJa” Beam yielding followed by Joint anchorage failure.
  2. aExperimental-to-nominal joint strength ratio per ACI 318.
  3. bProvided-to-required confinement reinforcing ratio per ACI 318 without limiting \(\varvec{f}_{{\varvec{yt}}}\).
  4. cJoints with hysteresis performance satisfying the three acceptance criteria (Fig. 4) given by ACI 374.1-05 are evaluated to be “Acceptable” and denoted by symbol “o”. The rest joints are evaluated to be “Unacceptable” and denoted by symbol “x”.
