Dynamic progressive collapse tests are becoming more and more popular in recent years
since this approach captures the real structural behavior more robustly, and progressive …

Precast construction has received a lot of interest over the last few decades. Among the
advantageous aspects of precast structures are superior quality, faster construction, and …

To study the effect of the axial compression ratio, torsion-bending ratio, and eccentricity on
the mechanical performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under combined loadings …

The application of extreme loads, such as impact and blast, may lead to progressive
collapse and the robustness of a structure must be considered in this context. Although …

This paper presents the experimental and numerical investigation on resistance of two-
storey steel sub-frames subjected to a middle column removal scenario. Two different types …

The majority of previous quasi-static tests on disproportionate collapse simulated the column
removal through applying concentrated load/displacement on the top of the removed column …

In precast reinforced concrete frame structures, beam-column joints suffer severe damage
under large deformations, which may significantly influence their performance in resisting …

In this paper, three precast concrete (PC) frames and one cast-in-situ reinforced-concrete
(RC) frame were cast and tested to investigate the load-resisting mechanisms of emulative …

Abstract In this paper, four 1/2 scaled precast concrete (PC) beam-column subassemblages
with high-performance connection were tested under push-down loading procedure to study …

Although many analytical and experimental studies have been carried out to date on the
progressive collapse and robustness of cast-in-place reinforced concrete (RC) and steel …
