The document analyzes the progressive collapse of low-rise steel frame structures with and without bracing systems. Progressive collapse is when one local structural failure causes additional collapse in a disproportionate manner. The study uses linear static analysis based on GSA-2013 guidelines to assess progressive collapse potential. A 5-story and 10-story steel frame is modeled and analyzed with the sudden removal of columns at different locations. Results show bracing systems help minimize progressive collapse by providing alternate load paths, as measured by demand capacity ratios, joint displacements, member forces, etc. being lower when braces are included.
