[ 1 ] - Effect of Initial Local Failure Type on Steel Braced Frame Buildings against Progressive Collapse

In many studies, the alternative load path method (APM) has been used for progressive collapse analysis. In this method, one or several columns of the building are removed and the building response is investigated. This method ignores the initial local failure cause of building and this can affect the structural response. Investigation of ignoring the initial local failure cause of steel braced...
