The problem of safety in the construction of buildings and structures has always been and remains very relevant. In our time of actively developing scientific and technological progress, new risk factors of a technogenic nature appear. Studying the survivability of buildings, and consequently the resistance of buildings to progressive collapses, is a very important task. This article examines the influence of the compliance of nodal connections of a metal frame on progressive collapse.
Keywords: progressive collapse, yielding of nodes, metal structures, survivability, special effects, calculation methods
