Abstract:In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) infilled frames having longer span are provided with tie columns to improve structural integrity but previous work ignored tie columns in studying the effect of masonry infills on progressive collapse resistance of RC frames. Therefore, aim of this study is to explore the effect of tie columns on the progressive collapse resistance of RC infilled frames under column removal scenarios. The high-fidelity-based finite element model of RC infilled frames were first developed a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
