Abnormal events, that are unforeseeable low-probability and high-impact events, cause
local failure (s) to structures that can lead to the collapse of other members and, eventually …

The world has seen a surge in rigorous study efforts on the progressive collapse of
structures in the past few decades. These events have led to new standards and provisions …

This study explores the progressive collapse resistance of composite substructures with the
fully-welded connection (FC) and fully-welded connection with rectangular web openings …

As building structures in different parts of the world become increasingly exposed to extreme
events, there has been a notable research and professional effort to ensure the design of …

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 …

A state-of-the-art review is presented on design and research related to progressive
collapse of steel structures under fire conditions. The influence of load ratios, strength of …

In this paper, a new type of the strengthened strategy for the limited anti-collapse capacity of
extended end-plate connections (EECs) is proposed. Bending stiffened steel plates (BSSPs) …

To investigate the disparity in collapse performance between multi-story composite frames
with equal or unequal spans, experimental tests were statically conducted on two 1/3 scaled …

The current paper aims to provide a critical review of the fire-induced spalling of concrete
structures, its socio-economic and environmental impacts, and to establish a roadmap …

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns may be exposed to blast loading. Assessment and
prediction of the damage condition and failure mode of RC columns are necessary for …
