In this study, a non-welded beam-to-column connection applicable to the extension and renovation of pipe-rack structures was proposed. The structural performance of the proposed connection was verified at the component level through preliminary finite element analyses. In order to verify structural performance of beam-to-column connection implementing panel zone reinforcing elements, full-scale quasi static test was conducted. As a result, the specimen incorporating box-type panel zone reinfocing element exhivited maximum strength approaximatly 1.3 times higher than that of the specimen with existing connection detail of which structural behavior was governed by weak panel zone deformation. However, the specimen with suggested detail shows stable ductile behavior due to reduction of stress concentrated on the beam-to-column connection since the applied forces were distributed through the yielding of the beam end plate and the reinforcing element inserted into the panel zone.
