Impact of two columns missing on dynamic response of RC flat slab structures
Impact of two columns missing on dynamic response of RC flat slab structures is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''Engineering Structures''. The main subjects of the publication include reinforced concrete, finite element method, geotechnical engineering, parametric statistics, Slab, progressive collapse, punching, structural engineering, geology, materials science, and bending moment of force. It is found that although both specimens had exceeded their yield load capacity, no collapse occurred as considerable compressive membrane action developed in the RC slab to help redistribute the loads.
