Analytical models of the structure using the Finite Element Method as well as the Applied Element Method are used to calculate global and l

The structure resisted progressive collapse with a measured maximum vertical displacement of only one quarter of an inch (6.4 mm). Deformation propagation over the height of the structure and the dynamic load redis

8、of mass casualties following local damage in structures, the General Services Administration 1 and the Department of Defense 2 developed regulations to evaluate progressive collapse resistance of structures. ASCE/SEI 7 3 defines progressive collapse as the spread of an initial local failure from ele

Following the approaches proposed by Ellingwood and Leyendecker 4, ASCE/SEI 7 3 defines two general methods for structural design of buildings to mitigate damage due to progressive colla
10、pse: indirect and direct design methods. General 山东建筑大学毕业设计外文文献及翻译 - 2 - building codes and standards 3,5 use indirect design by increasing overall integrity of structures. Indirect design is also used in DOD 2. Although the indirect design method can reduce the risk of progressive collapse 6,7 esti
11、mation ofpost-failure performance of structures designed based on such a method is not readily possible. One approach based on direct design methods to evaluate progressive collapse of structures is to study the effects of instantaneous removal of load-bearing elements, such as columns. GSA 1 and DO
12、D 2 regulations require removal of one load bearing element. These regulations are meant to evaluate general integrity of structures and their capacity of redistributing the loads following severe damage to only one element. While such an approach provides insight as to the extent to which the struc

In this study, using analytical results that are verified against experimental data, the progressive collapse resistance of the Hotel San Diego is evaluated, following the simultaneous
14、 explosion (sudden removal) of two adjacent columns, one of which was a corner column. In order to explode the columns, explosives were inserted into predrilled holes in the columns. The columns were then well wrapped with a few layers of protective materials. Therefore, neither air blast nor flying fragments affected the structure. 2. Building characteristics
