| Summary: | Recent studies regarding progressive collapse resistance of buildings considered only single critical column removal scenario. However, limited investigations have been conducted so far to assess multi-column removal scenarios. Hence this study is made to compare progressive collapse resistance of a multi-story building under both single and multi-column removal scenarios. An eight-storey reinforced concrete building was analyzed by using linear static analysis procedure and DCR values of the members are calculated to investigate the potential of progressive collapse as per GSA guideline. The values of DCR are compared for different cases. Comparisons of single and multi-column removal scenarios reveal that later scenarios are more critical because of their higher demand capacity ratios, and it is more critical when both corner and exterior columns are removed. |
