Significant work has been done on the enhancement of load-bearing capacity of reinforced
concrete slabs through tensile membrane action (TMA) under fire conditions, since its first …

In order to capture global load redistribution in a structural system subjected to fire and fire
induced local failure such as column buckling, this paper develops a dual-3D hybrid …

Modelling slabs is vitally necessary when simulating building structures in fire. The
composite action between slabs and beams and tensile membrane action after fire induced …

Timber buildings have been preferred in many regions for the sustainable nature of timber
material. Although engineered timber products become promising alternates to traditional …

It is important to model the local failure of structural members as well as the global
responses of a structural system when it is exposed to fire. The local failure of columns such …

Layered shell modelling is an effective tool for the efficient simulation of two-dimensional
structural members. As machine learning (ML) provides a novel alternative for the …

The collapse of several tall composite buildings over the last two decades has shown that
the performance of tall, composite and complex buildings in fire is a necessary design …

In this paper, a coupled adhesive-frictional is proposed and implemented within an implicit
finite element (FE) solver, targeting interfacial behaviors between ultrahigh-performance …

The introduction of concrete damage plasticity material models has significantly improved
the accuracy with which the concrete structural elements can be predicted in terms of their …

Many design regulations around the globe rely on member deflection as a governing
criterion for resistance assessment in fire. The deflection evaluation in fire is generally …
