EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL STUDIES ON THE REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMES SUBJECTED TO BLAST LOADS
Terrorist bombing attacks will endanger and may even destroy the target building structures, resulting in economic loss and casualties. Typical columns and floor slab systems are not designed to resist the complex blast loading. So, in recent years, the effects of blast on conventional public buildings are focused on. In this paper,a two-bay,one-story reinforced concrete frame structure which is used to model a portion of a typical reinforced concrete frame structural system is used to investigate the blast response. The experiments are conducted on two models, allowing a variation in explosives standoff and explosives charge. In each experiment,the blast pressure values are recorded and the degree of damage of the frames are studied. According to the two kinds of experiments, two numerical models are established. ALE method which considers the interaction of the explosive, the air, and the structure is applied.Structure response analyses are performed using the large deformation finite-element computer code, LS-DYNA. The numerical results are compared with the experiment results, and a good agreement is obtained. The calculating results also demonstrate that some experimental value is unreasonable.
