The writers conducted a full-scale loading test on a three-story steel building structure. To examine the interaction between the structural svstem and exterior finishes (ALC panel) was one of the primary objectives of the project. The ALC panel's connection detail adopted in his study is typical of the post-Kobe Japanese construction. The test showed little damage to the ALC panels. The panels did not affect at all the structural behavior up to the 1/25rad amplitude, and no visible cracks were observed in the panels except for minor cracks and spalling of concrete at the bottom of the panels in the first story.
