Abstract: Progressive collapse is spread of an initial local structural damage causing partial or total collapse of structure. It is one of the most devastating types of building failures, most often leading to costly damages, multiple injuries, and possible loss of life . Therefore it is neccessary to study the basic aspects of progressive collapse from historical background, mechanism, development of guidelines, Indin standard code etc and check the performance of structure. After mishap of blasting or mishap by any other reason, if structure sustain the excessive load then same structure can use for rehabilitation. Study of progressive collapse of Saptashringi apartment, Nashik said that structure was stable after blasting due to explosion in shop and it could be reuse instead of demolishing and constructing new structure.
