This paper reviews the state-of-art in progressive collapse studies on framed building
structures. Such types of failure start with a local damage which extension increases, up to …

The behavior of steel frame buildings under progressive collapse conditions depends on a
combination of several parameters, including the interplay between different collapse …

Featured Application The fragility curves can be useful for the early design of strategic RC
buildings under blast load. Abstract The complex characteristics of explosion load as well as …

This paper presents a novel algorithm for structural reliability analysis based on the finite
step length and Armijo line search to remove the drawbacks of the Hasofer–Lind and …

Uneven foundation settlement is one of the common engineering problems in a collapsible
loess area. In order to study the influence of uneven foundation settlement on the seismic …

Featured Application The main purpose of this study is to present a shear device consisting
of a central “fuse” link to examine the seismic behavior and to analyze the damage modes of …

The double-story isolation structure is a novel development based on the mid-story isolation
structure. To accurately reflect the seismic response of the double-story isolation structure …

As well reported, ordinary Portland cement (OPC) production causes between 0.8 and 1
tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission for every ton of cement produced which corresponds …

The behavior of steel frame buildings under progressive collapse conditions depends on a
combination of several parameters, including the interplay between different collapse …
