Nov 23, 2020 | Applied Element Method, Extreme Loading for Structures, Progressive Collapse, Structural Analysis Software
Abstract: Due to the repetitive progressive collapse events, it became necessity to form theories of designs against those cases of loadings. Prestressed reinforced concrete elements become widely used in construction field due to various properties that contribute to...
Nov 20, 2020 | Applied Element Method, Progressive Collapse, Structural Analysis Software
Abstract: Progressive collapse is defined as either partial or overall failure of the structure due to losing one of the main structural elements. In order to control this chain reaction, it is important to study the main structural elements behavior under column...
