Progressive Collapse of Structures: Analysis Methods, and Design, you'll learn ...
- Types of progressive collapse
- Codes of practice, design guidelines, and design approaches related to progressive collapse problems
- Structural analysis procedures and acceptance criteria
- Determination of the vulnerability of a structure to progressive collapse, along with mitigation methods
Overview
There’s been a surge in rigorous study efforts on the progressive collapse of structures in the past few decades. These events have led to new standards and provisions in building codes of practice, many of which are still being developed and updated today.
Although there have been some excellent reviews covering different aspects of progressive collapse, the sheer volume of research performed in this area in recent years means that highly relevant investigation methods and research findings are not covered by them. To fill this void, this course aims to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of progressive collapse research on building structures.
