Sažetak

Classic connection between prefabricated reinforced concrete columns on a foundation slab using the concrete plinth base can sometimes be very problematic, especially in limited construction conditions and/or foundation on sandy terrain where the groundwater is very close to the ground surface. By applying the screw connection between a prefabricated reinforced concrete column and the foundation structure using anchor bolts and column shoes, the overall height of the foundation is successfully reduced. The established connection between prefabricated reinforced concrete column and the foundation can immediately sustain the design force after assembly and it is considered to be a rigid connection that acts as an equivalent conventional connection with concrete plinth base, without any other additional support and welding. The successful implementation is possible with underground levels of structures where the inverted concrete plinth bases are implemented - the indentation in the foundation slab for the connection of prefabricated columns with base plate is avoided. Application of the screw connection also enables the design of the continuation of the column at higher altitude (column to column) or connection of the upper part the element with the monolithic structure. Screw connection is particularly suitable for use in seismic areas because the performed tests showed very good ductility of the connections under cyclic load
