Numerical study and development of component model for the behaviour of rigid beam-column joints in steel structures for progressive collapse

The risk of progressive collapse has been an increasing concern after the Ronan Point incident, even more so after the World Trade Centre incident. In blast events, load-bearing structural elements (e.g. columns) may be destroyed to a degree where it cannot sustain anymore load. This means that the...
