Compressive arch action (CAA) is a favourable structural mechanism to mitigate progressive collapse of reinforced concrete (RC) frames. To quickly and accurately predict the CAA capacity of RC sub-assemblages under a column-missing scenario, an engineering analytical model is proposed. The model con...
