Abstract:PurposeThe robustness of building structures in a fire has recently drawn wide attention. This study presents the progressive collapse analysis of steel frame building structures under localised fire. The main objective of this study is to propose methods to enhance the structural collapse resistance of such structures in fire.Design/methodology/approachA modelling method was developed and validated against both experimental and analytical studies. Then, a series of robustness analyses were performed to invest… Show more
