The described pre-buried parts 1 are pre-buried on the surface of the concrete wall to facilitate the assembly of the concrete wall by means of the connecting parts 2. During installation the shear key 13 on the pre-buried member 1 is inserted into the shear key adaptation hole 23 to provide shear resistance, which is then fixed by means of bolts passing through the second through hole 24, the first through hole 14 and the peg 12. Compared with the existing assembly methods, the shear wall connectors of the present application do not require temporary support and can achieve dry modular construction, ensuring safe and reliable transmission of tension and shear between the connectors and the prefabricated wall panels, enhancing the integrity of the shear wall; at the same time, the adaptability of the pre-buried parts and connectors has been verified in the factory, which can ensure precise seating of the pre-buried parts and connectors during on-site installation, speeding up the This speeds up the construction process, helps to save costs and has better economic benefits.

To facilitate construction and to ensure the reliability of the assembly, the present application provides some preferred ways of doing so as follows:

To provide a good connection, said first through-hole 14 and shear-resistant key 13 on the described pre-embedded member 1 are alternately spaced apart from each other.

To facilitate alignment of the anti-shear key 13 with the anti-shear key adaptation hole 23 during assembly, the described anti-shear key 13 is a conical table structure and the larger end is fixed to the side plate 11, and the described anti-shear key adaptation hole 23 is an inverted conical hole adapted to the anti-shear key 13.

In the installation process, in order to play a good shear and tensile effect, it is necessary to weld the anti-shear key 13 with the anti-shear key adaptation hole 23 after the docking is completed, therefore, in order to facilitate welding, the height of the described anti-shear key 13 is preferably 5-10 mm higher than the depth of the anti-shear key adaptation hole 23 to ensure that the anti-shear key 13 can pass through the anti-shear key adaptation hole 23 during installation, so as to facilitate subsequent welding around the anti-shear key 13.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the described shear key adaptation hole 23 is preferably set at the corner formed by the web 26 and the rib 25 of the H-beam 21, so that both the web 26 and the rib 25 of the connection 2 can play a certain limiting and fixing role against the shear key 23, thus improving the shear and tensile strength.

For the peg 12, in order to facilitate the processing of the threaded hole 15, a threaded sleeve structure can be used, but in order to avoid concrete entering the threaded hole during the production of the precast wall panel, a hemispherical top cap 16 can be set at the end of the peg 12 away from the side plate 11, as shown in FIG. 2, the outer diameter of the hemispherical top cap 16 is larger than the outer diameter of the peg 12 by about 5 mm, which can avoid concrete entering the threaded hole 15, and at the same time can avoid The prefabricated concrete wall can also be prevented from being loosened by the prefabricated concrete wall.

The assembled shear wall made with the above-mentioned shear wall connectors, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, comprises a reinforced concrete precast wall panel 3, and also comprises a shear wall connector, wherein the side plate 11 of the pre-buried member 1 is set on the assembly surface of the precast wall panel 3, and the wall plate reinforcement 31 in the precast wall panel 3 is welded to the inner side of the side plate 11, and said connector 2 is located between the assembly surfaces of two adjacent precast wall panels 3. The described pre-embedded member 1 and the connection member 2 are matched and welded together by means of shear keys 13 and shear key adaptation holes 23 and are fixed together by bolts passing through the second through-hole 24, the first through-hole 14 and the threaded hole 15 in that order. The installation of shear wall panels in one-piece, L-shaped, T-shaped or continuous-beam sections can be achieved by rationalising the position of pre-built parts 1 and connectors 2, which is highly versatile.
