Abstract:
Reinforced concrete flat slab-column structures, lacking the redundancy provided by a beam-column system, are susceptible to punching shear failure under extreme loading conditions, which may lead to progressive collapse with catastrophic consequences. A systematic review of recent advancements in the progressive collapse resistance of flat slab-column systems has been provided, categorizing the methodologies into experimental investigation, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulation. Experimental studies primarily utilize the Alternative Load Path methodology, incorporating both quasi-static and dynamic loading protocols to assess structural performance. Different column removal scenarios (e.g., corner, edge, and interior column failures) clarify the load redistribution patterns and the evolution of resistance mechanisms. Theoretical frameworks focus on tensile and compressive membrane actions, punching shear mechanism, and post-punching shear mechanism. Analytical models, incorporating strain-hardening effects and deformation compatibility constraints, show improved correlation with experimental results. Numerical simulations use multi-scale modeling strategies, integrating micro-level joint models with macro-level structural assemblies. Advanced finite element analysis techniques effectively replicate collapse behaviors under various column failure scenarios, validated by full-scale test data. This synthesis identifies key research priorities and technical challenges in collapse-resistant design, establishing theoretical foundations for future investigations of flat slab systems under multi-hazard coupling effects.
