Progressive Collapse Assessment of Precast Prestressed Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Applied Element Method

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...

Improving the Structural Robustness of Multistory Steel-Frame Buildings

This paper investigates the used of the alternate path method in studying the design of structures to resist progressive collapse using Extreme Loading® for Structures (ELS) and its Applied Element Method (AEM) based solver. Abstract: [dropcap style="font-size: 60px;...
