The work presented in this study aimed to investigate the influence of infill walls on the
progressive collapse performance of reinforced concrete (RC) frames. An experimental …

The interaction between the infill walls and the reinforced concrete (RC) frame members in
the progressive collapse process was examined experimentally in this study. Two 1/3 …

The main objective of the study is to investigate the effect of partial infill walls on collapse
mechanism of reinforced concrete (RC) frames using finite element models and …

The effect of infill walls on the progressive collapse behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC)
frames should be fully considered due to the formation of alternative load paths. To explore …

To quantify the load redistribution capacity of infill walls in reinforced concrete (RC) frames
to resist progressive collapse, a series of five 1/4 scaled RC frames with or without infill walls …

To study the effects of infill wall on progressive collapse resistance of reinforced concrete
(RC) frames with slabs, a macro finite element (FE) model was built using general purpose …

Progressive collapse behavior of RC infilled frames is studied experimentally under quasi-
static loading and numerically by using macro (strut) and micro (finite-element) models to …

In practice, infilled frame is a common structure but the contribution of infill walls is typically
ignored in previous research on progressive collapse. To this end, numerical models based …

This study aims to investigate the effect of the infilled frames through various important
parameters (ie, the openings' percentage in infill walls-several columns on the first floor are …

Abstract Masonry-infilled (MI) panels, which serve as partitions in buildings, are normally
considered as architectural elements. Their weights are considered in progressive collapse …
