Axial–Flexural Interaction in Axially Restrained Beams in Progressive Collapse Column-Removal Scenarios
https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9851-7790
Progressive collapse alternate path scenarios are often characterized by restrained beam configurations that provide resistance to structural collapse after column removal. While various methods have been presented to model the behavior of restrained beams, opportunities exist for mechanics-based estimation of the complete static and dynamic load-deflection curves. This paper presents an axially restrained beam (ARB) model that incorporates axial–flexural interaction throughout the entire static load-deflection curve including the elastic material range, the plastic flexural dominant range, the range beyond plastic flexure with increasing catenary effect, and the full catenary range. Energy methods are applied to static load-deflection curves to determine dynamic load-deflection relationships. A parametric study was conducted to assess the accuracy of the ARB method compared to nonlinear, dynamic time history finite-element (FE) analyses. The model compares favorably to results of FE models with average estimates of dynamic deflection within 2.1% for ideal moment connections and 7.7% for configurations combining simple and moment resisting connections.
