D3-1: Design Recommendations against Progressive Collapse in Steel and Steel-Concrete Buildings

Purpose of the project “Mitigation of the risk of progressive collapse in steel and composite building frames”- FAILNOMORE, is to consolidate the knowledge developed in the aforementioned research and transform it into practical recommendations and guidelines. The present design manual is a part of dissemination material and reflects the main outcomes of the FAILNOMORE project. Part 1 entitled “Design for robustness” which reflects the design strategies and the design approaches to be adopted Part 2 entitled “Worked examples” which illustrates how the different design approaches can be applied on four actual design examples: a steel and a composite structure designed in a non-seismic area and a steel and a composite structure designed in a seismic area. • Part 3 entitled “Annexes” which provides the reader with additional detailed information regarding some of the proposed design concepts. • Part 4 entitled “References”
