A numerical procedure has been developed to model the sequences of failure which can
occur within steel beam-to-column connections under fire conditions. In this procedure two …

Component-based joint model suggested by Eurocode is a simple yet efficient approach to
evaluating the joint behavior of composite beam-column subassemblies. The reinforcing …

In fire conditions the provision of connection ductility is key to the prevention of brittle failure
and progressive collapse of steel and steel-concrete composite framed structures. This …

The component-based model of a novel connection, which is designed to accommodate the
high ductility demand of long-span steel beams in fire conditions, has been incorporated into …

To enhance the robustness of connections in fire, the improved design version of a novel
ductile connection has been proposed. Performance of the improved design version of novel …

Purpose In order to improve the robustness of bare-steel and composite structures in fire, a
novel axially and rotationally ductile connection has been proposed in this paper …

This paper describes a recent development in a finite element software dedicated to the
modeling of structures in fire which deals with the way connections are simulated in global …

This paper investigates the progressive collapse behavior of composite beam-column
connection subassembly under column removal scenarios. An analytical model is proposed …

A combination of beam-web shear buckling and flange buckling at the ends of steel beams
is very commonly observed during full-scale fire tests. This can affect the behaviour of the …

A frame structure exposed to fire undergoes two types of changes due to the resulting
temperature fields. The first is the thermal expansion of the structural members and the …
