Abstract
Unbonded posttensioned precast concrete (UPPC) structure has shown its excellent aseismic performance in laboratory tests and earthquake investigation. However, the progressive collapse behavior of UPPC subjected to column removal scenario is still unclear. To fill this knowledge gap, two 1/2 scaled UPPC beam-column sub-assemblages were tested under a penultimate column removal scenario. The dynamic test results indicated that UPPC sub-assemblages have desirable load redistribution capacity to mitigate progressive collapse. The failure modes of the sub-assemblages observed in dynamic test were quite similar to that in static counterparts.
