フロリダマンション崩落事故の再現解析

抄録

In this study, the building collapse of the Champlain Towers South in Florida allegedly caused by deck collapse was examined through the finite element analysis based on the existing hypotheses and investigation. For the numerical analysis, the Adaptively Shifted Integration (ASI) – Gauss code was applied. In addition, the member strength failure algorithm of RC components was modified and the flat-plate structure was introduced into the numerical model of the building. According to the numerical results, the building did not collapse when the external deck of the building connecting the columns, so called as key elements, were removed by the collapse of the external deck.
