It was observed that the\udmodel structures had high potential for progressive collapse when the second\udfloor column was suddenly removed. Then, the size of beams required to satisfy\udthe failure criteria for progressive collapse was obtained by using the virtual\udwork method; i.e., </span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;\udfont-family:"Times New Roman","serif";mso-ascii-theme-font:major-bidi;\udmso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-hansi-theme-font:major-bidi;\udmso-bidi-theme-font:major-bidi;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA">using the equilibrium\udof the external work done by gravity load due to loss of a column and the\udinternal work done by plastic rotation of beams. According to the nonlinear\uddynamic analysis results, the model structures designed only for normal load\udturned out to have strong potential for progressive collapse whereas the structures\uddesigned by plastic design concept for progressive collapse satisfied the\udfailure criterion recommended by the GSA code. <o:p></o:p></span></p
