This paper reviews the state-of-art in progressive collapse studies on framed building
structures. Such types of failure start with a local damage which extension increases, up to …

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 …

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 finite-element modeling study on the progressive collapse of steel moment-resisting
frames under column removal scenarios is presented. Different parameters, such as location …

Since the progressive collapse of structures could cause disastrous consequences for
humans and society, therefore assessing and improving the vulnerability of our buildings …

The hazard posed by debris flows onto mountainous settlements often requires structural
countermeasures, such as barriers, to be installed. There is a worldwide trend in employing …

Abstract The Alternative Load Path (ALP) method is widely used to assess progressive
collapse resistance of steel framed structures. Code-based ALP is a threat-independent …

The limited knowledge of the behaviour of modular buildings subjected to different loading
scenarios and thereby lack of design guidelines hinder the growth of modular construction …

Vehicle collision is occurred in the ground level of buildings accidentally or intentionally.
This event is a common scenario of generating structural damages. In some cases, these …

Civil structures are subjected to accidental or intentional impacts, which can lead to an initial
failure, and subsequently to a tragic progressive collapse. While progressive collapse …
