Reliability and progressive collapse of structures

IABSE Reports, 2007
<p>The number of incidents of progressive collapse of structures has increased over the last decade. Design faults are becoming more frequent and the simple collapse of a structure during construction or in exploitation has become commonplace during the lifetime of a structure.

Methodologies for Progressive Collapse Analysis

Structures Congress 2009, 2009
Existing building codes contain some guidance on progressive collapse analysis and design. Unfortunately, in most of the U.S. building codes and standards that contain progressive collapse provisions, the available guidance is either vague, or does not define, the key issues that must be addressed.

Progressive Collapse and Earthquake Resistance

Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction, 2008
Images of structural collapse crowd our globalized television screens; from wars, terrorist bombs, and earthquakes. The outcomes often look quite similar, but what are the engineering differences? Look first for differences relating to collapse mechanisms: (1) earthquake engineering focuses on sway collapse mechanisms in which the building as a whole ...

Progress and Collapse, 1922–31

1997
Labour now entered a period of considerable achievement but also one which ended, ultimately, in defeat and demoralization. The 1922 election result more than made up for the disappointment of 1918.
