In order to study the effect of the support mode of a staggered truss system on the continuous collapse resistance performance of a steel structure, four finite element models were established based on the bracing arrangement of a five-story steel frame ...

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns, being axial-bearing components in buildings, are susceptible to damage and failure when subjected to blast loading. The failure of these columns can trigger a progressive collapse in targeted buildings. The primary objec...

More complex geological conditions could be encountered with the construction of urban subway projects. At present, many subway tunnels have been built in composite strata with upper soft and lower hard layers, but the presence of a cavity in the strata ...

In order to improve the progressive collapse resistance of an RC frame structure with an L-shaped plane under local component failure, X-tension reinforcement and steel trusses are applied to the progressive collapse resistance design. In this paper, the...

The progressive collapse of structures subjected to a truck collision with ground floor columns is numerically investigated in this paper. For this purpose, a four-story steel building with a dual system (including an intermediate steel moment frame, wit...

This paper presents numerical simulations of multi-storey reinforced concrete frames under progressive collapse scenarios. Reinforced concrete frames with different storeys are modelled using DIANA. The load resistance and failure mode of frames are obta...

This article proposes an progressive-collapse mechanism for suspended-dome structures subjected to cable rupture, based on experimental and finite element results. The anti-collapse mechanism can be succinctly described as a node-buckling mechanism: the ...

This paper examined the opportunities of composite double-layer grid superstructures in short-to-medium span bridge decks. It was empirically shown here that a double-layer grid deck system in composite action with a thin layer of two-way reinforced conc...

RC flat slabs supported by an array of columns subjected to the action of impulsive pressure were investigated. The slabs were designed for static loads according to current standards. The dynamic responses of 4 × 4- and 8 × 8-column-supported slabs were...
