Progressive collapse is, according to GSA (2003), a situation where local failure of a primary structural component leads to the collapse of adjoining members which, in turn, leads to additional collapse. Since the experimental studies are costly and difficult to...

During seismic response, redistribution of load carried by damaged or failed structural members to adjacent members may lead to overstress or exceeding load resistant capacity of the other members resulting in spread or propagation of damage until development of...
