Resistance of Flat-Plate Buildings against Progressive Collapse. II: System Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Using a macromodeling approach and alternate path method, dynamic and static analyses are performed to assess the progressive collapse resistance of a multistory reinforced concrete flat-plate building lacking structural ...
Effects of In-Plane Restraint on Progression of Collapse in Flat-Plate Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Resistance of Flat-Plate Buildings against Progressive Collapse. I: Modeling of Slab-Column Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A macromodel for slab-column connections is created for use in the system-level progressive collapse analyses of reinforced concrete flat-plate structures. The proposed model jointly uses shell and connector elements to ...
Experimental Study of Dynamic Progressive Collapse in Flat-Plate Buildings Subjected to Exterior Column Removal
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper documents the findings from a dynamic collapse experiment carried out on a single-story two-by-two bay reinforced concrete flat-plate substructure. The test specimen had a 0.4 scale, represented older flat-plate ...
