Progressive Collapse Resistance of RC Structures with Tension Cables

Abstract:

In this study, three tie force models of a 10-storey concrete frame structure were prepared to investigate the effects of these methods on the resistance of frame structures against progressive collapse. Four cases of different first-storey column removed were considered using nonlinear static analysis method and their performances were compared with each other. From the nonlinear static analysis, the tie force methods in DoD 2005 and DoD 2009 cannot improve progressive collapse resistance of the structure because horizontal cables don't play a full role. X-type tension cables provide alternative load paths after loss of a single column, and improve progressive collapse resistance of the structure. The X-type tie force model remained in stable condition after sudden removal of a corner column, an exterior column, or an interior column in the first storey.
