Extreme events (ie terrorist attacks, vehicle impacts, explosions, etc.) often cause local
damage to building structures and pose a serious threat when one or more vertical load …

Over the past few decades, increasing awareness of the need for more resilient
infrastructure has led to a great increase in the amount of research being performed on the …

In current composite floors, the strength of the deck connections restraining the profiled steel
decks to the floor beams or to the neighboring steel decks are much weaker compared with …

The topic of robustness and progressive collapse of structures has attracted significant
attention within the field of structural engineering recently. This is reflected by the rise in the …

In this study, the alternate load path analysis is carried out to investigate the progressive
collapse resistance of multi-storey modular buildings constructed using corner-supported …

A static push-down analysis is conducted experimentally using a 1/3 scale one-story bare
steel moment frame substructure in this study. The objectives of this test include:(1) …

In this study, static tests of six two-story three-span composite frames with concrete-filled
steel tubular (CFST) column under a penultimate column removal scenario were carried out …

This paper presents a comprehensive study on three-dimensional steel frame structures
subjected to progressive collapse, drawing insights from a full-scale steel frame substructure …

Accidental events, such as impact loading or explosions, are rare events with a very low
probability of occurrence. However, their effects often lead to very high human losses and …

This paper presents static and dynamic tests on nominally-pinned steel joints equipped with
novel structural details for progressive collapse mitigation. The proposed structural details …
