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 …

Dynamic progressive collapse tests are becoming more and more popular in recent years
since this approach captures the real structural behavior more robustly, and progressive …

Finite Element (FE) methods have been widely adopted in structural design to analyze the
mechanical performance quantitatively, while most comprehensive FE models are …

This paper proposes a real-time prediction method for key monitoring physical parameters
(KMPPs) for early warning of fire-induced building collapse using machine learning. Since …

For describing the temperature-dependent yield strength (TDYS) of precipitation
strengthening Ni-base superalloys, a temperature-dependent model of Anti-Phase …

Presented in this paper are test results on mechanical properties of high strength Q690 steel
after being exposed to high temperatures. Yield strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus …

Modular building is an innovative construction method and imposes unique assembly
requirements. Modular structures may exhibit different global responses and unexpected …

The sudden column loss, which is caused by fire, is a unique illustration of a localized failure
that can eventually lead to the progressive collapse of the entire steel-framed structures. To …

The accidents of firefighter injuries caused by the fire-induced collapse of steel structures
occur frequently, putting an important issue on establishing early-warning systems for such …

This paper presents experimental and numerical investigations on the collapse modes of
single span steel portal frames exposed to fire. A fire test on a scaled-down single span steel …
