Precast　reinforced　concrete　structures　are　widely　used　due　to　many　constructional　advantages　such　as　faster　construction　speed,　lower　construction　cost,　being　environmentally　friendly,　higher　strength,　and　so　on.　To　study　the　seismic　performance　of　precast　reinforced　concrete　structures,　tests　on　beam-to-column　joints　of　precast　reinforced　concrete　structures　were　conducted　under　low　reversed　cyclic　loading.　In　total,　four　joint　specimens　were　produced　in　this　study,　including　two　precast　joints　and　two　cast-in-place　joints.　In　addition　to　the　comparison　between　different　types　of　joints,　the　axial　compression　ratio　of　column　was　adopted　as　the　main　variable　in　this　study.　Analysis　was　carried　out　on　the　basis　of　the　observed　joint　failure　mode　and　relationships　derived　from　the　test　data　such　as　hysteresis　curves,　skeleton　curves,　stiffness　degradation　curves,　energy　dissipation　capacities,　and　sleeve　joint　strain　curves.　Despite　the　closeness　of　energy　dissipation　capacity　between　the　precast　joints　and　the　cast-in-place　joints,　they　had　different　failure　modes.　Precast　joints　feature　a　relatively　concentrated　crack　distribution　in　which　the　limited　number　of　cracks　was　distributed　throughout　the　plastic　zone　of　the　beam.　Cast-in-place　joints　feature　more　evenly　distributed　cracks　in　the　plastic　zone,　especially　at　the　later　stage　of　the　loading.　The　steel　slippage　of　the　precast　concrete　joints　was　found　influenced　by　the　axial　compression　ratio.　Through　this　study,　it　is　concluded　that　seismic　resistance　capacity　of　precast　concrete　joint　needs　to　be　considered　in　design　and　construction　and　the　grouting　sleeve　splice　could　be　kept　away　from　the　hinge　zones　when　precast　concrete　structures　were　used　in　regions　of　high　seismicity.　The　results　in　this　study　can　provide　a　theoretical　basis　for　seismic　design　of　precast　reinforced　concrete　structures,　which　in　turn　can　promote　the　application　of　precast　reinforced　concrete　structures.
