Progressive collapse potential of different types of irregular buildings located in diverse seismic sites

This paper evaluates the effects of severity of Torsional Irregularity (TI) and In-plane Discontinuity in Vertical Lateral force-resisting element Irregularity (IDVLI) together with seismic strength of the building on the progressive collapse potential of steel Special Moment-Resisting Frames (steel...
