Analysis of the Progressive Collapse Resistance Mechanism of an RC Frame Structure with an L-Shaped Plane

Yifei Dai and Lei Qin    

Resumen

In order to improve the progressive collapse resistance of an RC frame structure with an L-shaped plane under local component failure, X-tension reinforcement and steel trusses are applied to the progressive collapse resistance design. In this paper, the finite element software MIDAS Gen v2.1 is used to establish the RC frame structure with 6-story X-type tension strengthening and the RC frame structure with a steel truss at the top. Nonlinear dynamic analysis and a comparison of the two structures after local structural failure are carried out. The results show that both X-tension reinforcement and steel trusses can improve the integrity of the RC frame structure with an L-shaped plane and reduce the risk of progressive collapse in the event of single-column failure, but the steel trusses have the best effect. After component failure, adding a steel truss to the top layer can transfer the load above the failure column to other columns and reduce some beam resistance, providing a more effective alternative load transfer path for the structure.
