“…Numerous experimental and numerical studies have been conducted over the last two decades to understand the progressive collapse behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) building structures at different levels, including beam-column sub-assemblages (Qian et al, 2018, 2022; Valipour et al, 2016; Yang et al, 2021; Yu and Tan, 2013a, 2013b), beam-slab sub-assemblages (Lu et al, 2017; Qian et al, 2016; Ren et al, 2016; Yu et al, 2018; Yu, Luo, et al, 2020; Yu, Tang, et al, 2020), planar frames (Li et al, 2021; Lim et al, 2017; Yu and Tan, 2017; Zhou et al, 2019) and overall structures (Brunesi et al, 2015; Feng et al, 2022; Petrone et al, 2020; Praxedes and Yuan, 2021; Shan et al, 2019) etc. In previous researches (Baghi et al, 2018; Brodsky and Yankelevsky, 2017; Li et al, 2016; Qian and Li, 2017; Shan et al, 2016), masonry infill walls have been proven to have a substantial impact on the resistance of RC frames to progressive collapse.…”
