Strategies for Mitigating Risk of Progressive Collapse
A progressive collapse is a catastrophic partial or total collapse that initiates from local structural damage and propagates, by a chain reaction mechanism, into a failure that is disproportionate to the local damage caused by the initiating event. Procedures for mitigating the risk of progressive collapse can be developed using concepts of structural reliability analysis and probabilistic risk assessment, supported by advanced computational tools. This paper summarizes methods for assessing the risk of progressive collapse and implementation of strategies for its mitigation in national standards such as ASCE Standard 7, Minimum design loads for buildings and other structures.
