On September 9th, 2021, the Thunder Bay Generating Station witnessed a significant engineering feat with the controlled demolition of its towering 650-foot chimney. This challenging project was expertly managed by Budget Demolition Corp (now known as YORK1) in...
Ayman Elfouly, PE from Applied Science International presented to ASCE North Carolina on the topic of High Fidelity Non-Linear Structural Analysis under Extreme Loading Conditions using Extreme Loading Technology Summary: Extreme Loading for Structures Software or...
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...

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...

Abstract Explosions bring a serious risk of damage or collapse when are produced inside buildings or in the close proximity. As the hazard intensity and possible effects are difficult to quantify, the structure should have the capacity to survive with inherent...
ASI’s paper on the progressive collapse of the Polcevera Viaduct Bridge in Genoa, Italy will be available free for the next 50 days from Engineering Structures. ASI Engineers modeled up the bridge and simulated the collapse using its Extreme Loading for...
