Development of Practical Finite Element Models for Collapse of Reinforced Concrete Structures and Experimental Validation
This paper describes two practical methodologies for modeling the collapse of reinforced concrete structures. They are validated with a real scale test of a two-floor structure which loses a bearing column. The objective is to achieve accurate simulations of collapse phenomena with moderate computat...
