Progressive collapse behaviour of precast concrete structures with advanced joints by Nguyen, Van Hung

“…To improve inaccuracy in previous model predictions of structural response, a refined component-based model (CBM) was proposed for RC frames with conventional and special joint detailing against progressive collapse. Through numerical analysis, advantages of incorporating an additional bar layer (ABL) and plastic hinge relocation (PHR) in the beam-joint region for enhancing collapse resistance of RC frames were illuminated. …”
