EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION ON BLAST RESISTANCE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES UNDER PARTIALLY CONFINED EXPLOSION

Experimental Evaluation on Blast Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Structures under Partially Confined Explosion

Abstract As the risk of accidental explosions at ammunition storage or hydrogen charging station increases in populated area, it is needed to design the facilities against blast loading, particularly subjected to partially confined explosion.However, the partially confined explosion lacks experimental test data to efficiently design the facilities
