Seminar on Bomb Blast Resistant Structure by Shantanu PatilShantanu Patil
The design of civilian or commercial buildings to withstand the effects of a terrorist blast is unlike the design of military installations or the design of embassy buildings. The objectives of the “Structural Engineering Guidelines” for the Design of New Embassy Buildings are to prevent heavy damage to components and structural collapse. Adherence to the provisions of the guidelines will minimize injuries and loss of life and facilitate the evacuation and rescue of survivors. The blast-protection objective of any commercial or public building must be similar to those of embassy structures, that is to prevent structural collapse, to save lives, and to evacuate victims.

As we know that in today’s world terrorists’ attacks are common and not a single country is completely safe. High-explosive detonations propagate blast energy in all directions, causing extensive damage to both the target structure and nearby buildings. Structural damage and the glass exposure have been major contributors to death and injury for the targeted buildings. If the structures are properly designed for these abnormal loads damage can be controlled. Within the Indian Standard Codes these types of situations are not dealt with and they need further explanation as the engineers have no guidelines on how to design or evaluate structures for the blast phenomenon for which a detailed understanding of structural behavior as well as effects of different kinds of blast load is required. The calculation of blast load is studied in this report using various parameters.

DEMOLITION:-Demolition is the process of tearing down or falling down of a building after its life period with the help of some equipments or any other method. When explosives are used for this then the demolition process are called as an implosion. Every civil engineering structure is designed for a life period. After that the existence of a structure is very dangerous. So removal of such structures with proper safety measures has got great importance. There are different steps involved before and during the time of a demolition activity.
THIS IS THE PRESENTATION ON REPAIR AND RESTORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURE. DURING EARTHQUAKE, STRUCTURES GOES TO COLLAPSE OR GET CRACK. DUE TO THIS MINOR CRACK THE STRUCTURE WILL COLLAPSE AFTER EARTHQUAKE DONE. TO RESOLVE REPAIR AND RESTORATION WORK ADOPTED TO MAKE STRUCTURE STRENGTHENING.
Bracing elements in structural system plays a vital role in the seismic behaviour of high rise buildings during earthquake. Many of the structural failures in buildings during strong earthquake shaking have indicated that sustainable strength and stable energy dissipation capability are most desirable to maintain inter story drifts and overall structural displacements within tolerable levels. So earthquake action brings a greater concern in the structural design of buildings which is situated in earthquake prone areas. Steel bracing are the common type which mainly used to resist the lateral loads acting during a seismic activity. Conventional types of lateral load resisting systems are concentrically-braced frames (CBFs) and eccentrically braced frames (EBF). Buckling Restrained Braces (BRB) are recent developed structural system which has a stable energy dissipation property. Main advantage of BRB is its ability to yield both in tension and compression without buckling, thus obtaining a stable hysteresis loop. The BRB brace placed in a concentric frame is termed as BRBF system.

Comparative Study of Seismic Analysis of Building with Light Weight and Conve...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
In recent decades, the lightweight materials are used
in construction instead of conventional material. Lightweight
construction is considered to be favourable due to the saving
in construction cost and materials. AAC block is a lightweight
structural material with excellent acoustic and thermal
insulation properties. Due to the use of lightweight material in
construction in seismic zone reduce the percentage of
damages. In this paper the attempt has been made to carry out
the project comparative study of seismic analysis of building
with lightweight and conventional material. Structural model
of multi storey building (G+3) and analysis is carried out in
STAAD-Pro by RSM (Response Spectrum Method). Building
using infill AAC (Autoclaved aerated concrete) block and
conventional clay brick masonry are designed for the same
seismic hazard in accordance with the applicable provisions
given in Indian codes. The analytical results of the buildings
will be compared. The project is also aimed at getting
familiarity with STAAD-Pro.2008.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Agenda:
Need
Types of blasts
Principles
Effects on the structure
Preventive measures:
(i) Measures to be taken while planning
(ii) Measures to be taken while construction
Installations
Bomb shelter areas
conclusion
3. Need:
Increase in number of terrorist attacks.
To minimize damage to the assets
To minimize the loss of life.
To protect historical monuments and important buildings
To subside social panic
5. Maintain safe separation of attackers and targets i.e. STAND-
OFF zones.
Design to sustain and contain certain amount of bomb damage.
Avoid progressive collapse of the building.
Allow for limited localized damage of members
Minimize the quantity and hazard of broken glass and blast
induced debris.
Facilitate rescue and recovery operation with
adequate time of evacuation of occupants.
Principles Of Blast Resistant Design:
6. Effects of blast on the structure:
An explosion is a rapid release of potential energy
characterized by eruption enormous energy to the
atmosphere.
A part of energy is converted to thermal energy radiation(flash)
and a part is coupled as air blast and shock waves which expand
radially
9. Planning and layout:
Sufficient stand-off distance
must be provided.
In case of congested areas
where there is no provision
for stand off distance,
bollards, trees or street
furniture are to be provided
as obstacles.
10.
11. Structural Solutions for Blast Resistant Buildings:
Roof: Arches and domes are the types
of structural forms that reduce the
blast effects on the building compared
with a cubicle form.
Flooring: They must be prevented
from ‘falling off' their supports. Pre-
cast flooring is to be avoided in case
of blast resistant structures
12. Beam-to-column connections:
Frame structures are deficient in
2 aspects:
failure of beam to
column connections
Inability of the structure
to tolerate load reversal
providing additional
robustness to these
connections can be
significant enhancement. Side plate connection for a steel
structure
13. Beam to column connection in Reinforced
concrete structure
14. The use of extra links and the location of the starter bars in the
connection reduce the collapse and damages.
In critical areas full moment-resisting connections are
made in order to ensure the load carrying capacity of
structural members after an explosion
15. The need for fire resistance, strength and ductility favors
reinforced concrete as a construction material for floors.
Blast-resistant design philosophy allows structural
elements to undergo large inelastic (plastic) deformations in
response to blast loading.
• A ductile structure that undergoes large deformations
without failure can absorb much more energy than a brittle
structure of the same static strength
Ductile Detailing Of Reinforcements:
16.
17. Tensile reinforcement between 0.5 and 2 percent of the cross-
sectional area of the concrete element will usually insure
ductile behavior while providing the required strength.
Compression steel in flexural members serves two purposes.
After a structural member is deflected by blast loads, it
attempts to spring back or rebound. Dynamic rebound causes
load reversal and, under certain circumstances, can result in
catastrophic failure
18. Wrapping of columns:
Wrapping is done to done for
external protection of columns
and also to protect the column
from shock waves. Two types
ofwrapping can be applied.
Wrapping with steel belts or
wrapping with carbon fiber-
reinforced polymers (CFRP).
19. Miscellaneous measures:
Partially or fully embed buildings are quite blast resistant.
Projected roofs and floors are undesirable
Single story buildings are more blast resistant than multi story
buildings
Double-Dooring should be used.
20. Installations:
Gas, water, steam installations, electrical connections,
elevators and water storage systems should be planned to
resist any explosion affects.
Bomb shelter areas:
The bomb shelter areas are specially designated within the
building where vulnerability from the effects of the explosion
is at a minimum and where personnel can retire in the event
of a bomb threat warning.
21. Glazing and cladding:
Glass from broken and shattered windows could be responsible for
a large number of injuries caused by an explosion in a city centre.
The choice of a safer glazing material is critical and it has been
found out that laminated glass is the most effective in this context.
22. Conclusion:
It is not practical to design buildings to withstand any
conceivable terrorist attack.
It is possible to improve the performance of structures
should one occurs in the form of an external explosion
Design process to ensure that appropriate threat
conditions and levels of protection are being
incorporated.
