Abstract
Among the different incidents that result in progressive collapse, an explosion is one of the major reasons. An explosion can cause damage to the building’s structural frames, which may cause partial or full collapse of the structure. The partial collapse of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City due to the car bomb attack in 1995 (ODCEM, 1995) is a famous example of a blast-triggered building collapse.
