Overview

Randomized trial develops a blast-resistant structural system for critical infrastructure, suggesting improved safety against explosions.

Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a blast-resistant structural system for critical infrastructure that can withstand explosion forces.
  • Analyzed a G+10 reinforced concrete building using ETABS 21 software under various blast scenarios.
  • Developed 36 models by varying shear wall configurations including bare frame and combined systems.
  • Calculated blast loads using standard methods and applied them as joint loads on the structure.
  • Inclusion of shear walls improves structural response under blast loading.
  • Model-9 with combined shear walls at core and corners shows maximum reduction in displacement and drift with increased stiffness.
  • Proper shear wall placement is crucial for enhancing blast resistance and structural safety.
