US Army Centrifuge: Progressive collapse testing of a 4-story reinforced concrete structure at 1/18-Scale

A 1/18-scale model of a 4-story reinforced concrete structure was tested at 18 g in the US Army Centrifuge to support the development of computational modeling of progressive collapse of multi-story buildings. The model structure was 4 bays long and 3 bays wide with column spacing about 33 cm in each directions and story height of 20.3 cm. Three...
