Download or read book Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions Volume 6 Special Considerations in Explosive Facility Design written by M. Dede and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report, in six volumes, details design procedures for structures which are subjected to the effects of accidential explosions. The procedures cover the determination of the blast environment (blast and fragments) and then structural design. This volume, Special Considerations in Explosive Facility Design, in particular, contains procedures for the design of blast-resistant structures other than above ground, cast-in-place concrete or structural steel structures, as well as the design of other miscellaneous blast-resistant components. Included in this volume are the design of reinforced and nonreinforced masonry walls, precast elements both prestressed and conventionally reinforced, pre-engineered buildings, suppressive shielding, blast resistant windows, underground structures, earth covered, arch-type magazines, blast valves, and shock isolation systems.

Castellano and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Initial guidance in the field of protective structures design was provided in 1969 with the publication of the Tri-Service Design Manual Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions (TM 5-1300), NAFVAC P-397, AFM 88-22). The manual presents procedures for determining the blast effects resulting from an explosion and techniques for the design of reinforced concrete structures subjected to blast loads. A considerable amount of data, much of it not covered in the current manual, has been accumulated since its publication. This information has brought about the urgent requirement for revising the manual. This paper briefly describes the topics in the manual that will be revised, those that will be added, the format of the new manual, and the various committees set up to oversee the revision.

Download or read book Design Against Blast written by S. Syngellakis and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrorist attacks and other destructive incidents caused by explosives have, in recent years, prompted considerable research and development into the protection of structures against blast loads. For this objective to be achieved, experiments have been performed and theoretical studies carried out to improve our assessments of the intensity as well as the space-time distribution of the resulting blast pressure on the one hand and the consequences of an explosion to the exposed environment on the other.This book aims to enhance awareness on and understanding of these topical issues through a collection of relevant, Transactions of the Wessex Institute of Technology articles written by experts in the field. The book starts with an overview of key physics-based algorithms for blast and fragment environment characterisation, structural response analyses and structural assessments with reference to a terrorist attack in an urban environment and the management of its inherent uncertainties.A subsequent group of articles is concerned with the accurate definition of blast pressure, which is an essential prerequisite to the reliable assessment of the consequences of an explosion. Other papers are concerned with alternative methods for the determination of blast pressure, based on experimental measurements or neural networks. A final group of articles reports investigations on predicting the response of specific structural entities and their contents.The book concludes with studies on the effectiveness of steel-reinforced polymer in improving the performance of reinforced concrete columns and the failure mechanisms of seamless steel pipes used in nuclear industry.

This book was released on 1986 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Procedures for structures designed to resist the effects of HE type explosions are presently available in the Tri-Service Design Manual Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions (TM 5-1300, NAVFAC P-397, AFM 88- 22). However, these procedures are limited to reinforced concrete structures. Since its original publication, a considerable amount of data has been generated which brought about the requirement to revise existing procedures in the manual and incorporate new data. This describes the differences between the old and new manual and discusses the additional data incorporated in the new manual.

Another section deals with primary fragments (fragment velocity, distribution of fragments, impact effects) and secondary fragments (velocity, trajectory). The last section on shock loads contains procedures for determining ground shock and air shock effects, structure motions, and shock response spectra. An appendix is included with appropriate example problems and solutions.
