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 …

A state-of-the-art review is presented on design and research related to progressive
collapse of steel structures under fire conditions. The influence of load ratios, strength of …

Observations from realistic fires have revealed that a fire tends to “travel” across the floors
rather than burning simultaneously for the duration. However, the collapse mechanism and …

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 …

This paper presents experimental investigations on the collapse behavior of a full-scale 36
m× 12 m steel portal frame exposed to natural fires. Extensive thermal and structural …

This paper presents the progressive collapse experiment efforts in beam-column assemblies
with WUF-B connections after fire exposure. A refined numerical simulation approach that …

This paper presents both the experimental and numerical studies on the collapse resistance
of beam-column substructures with all-welded connections under a middle-column removal …

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 safety of extensive reinforced concrete (RC) buildings under sudden fire scenarios is of
particular concern nowadays. Localized fires may bring serious damage and even collapse …

The unexpected collapse of burning buildings has posed a great threat to firefighters.
Hence, early-warning methods for fire-induced collapse are urgently needed to avoid …
