Experimental study on effects of multi-column removal affecting behaviour of RC frames to mitigate progressive collapse by Ye, Da Wei

“…Various studies were conducted in the last decade with majority focusing on instances whereby only a single load bearing member, such as a column, was removed. However, in most real life accidental situations (terrorist attack/ vehicular impact) involving progressive collapse, they will often result in heavy initial impact that will lead to multi-column loss in a RC structure. …”
