Progressive collapse‐resisting capacity of modular mega‐frame buildings
In this study, the progressive collapse‐resisting capacity of modular mega‐frame structures consisting of a few identical subsystems was investigated based on column‐loss scenario. Four types of mega‐frame structures were designed as basic analysis model structures. According to pushdown analysis results, the mega‐frame structure with four corner columns did not satisfy the design guidelines for progressive collapse regardless of the number of subsystems when one of the first‐story mega‐columns was removed. To enhance the resistance against progressive collapse, we redesigned the basic model structure with four mega‐columns by adding additional floor trusses in the transfer floors, adding moment‐resisting frames at the perimeter and adding vertical mega‐bracing. The pushdown analysis results showed that the schemes with additional mega‐braces were most effective in increasing the progressive collapse‐resisting capacity of mega‐frame buildings.
