Overstrength for enhancing the robustness of structures

, 2017
In the present paper, a methodology able to increase the robustness of a frame struc- ture is proposed. This methodology focuses on the structural behaviour of the key elements, which are endowed with a certain overstrength that can be employed to enhance the capacity of the whole structure to withstand a specific hazard scenario. The “loss of a column”
