Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When an explosive threat exists, building owners should strongly consider using blast-resistant glazing in windows and curtain walls. Architects and engineers have few, if any, publicly available tools, procedures, or formal guidelines to aid in designing blast-resistant glazing. This paper presents a design procedure for blast-resistant laminated glass. The procedure finds its basis in an empirical relationship between air blast pressure, positive phase impulse, and 60-second equivalent design loading for laminated glass and window glass constructions fabricated with laminated glass. The procedure is relatively simple to use. The paper also addresses framing considerations for the blast-resistant glazing. It gives a design example and shows comparisons with experimental results.

Book excerpt: Over the past decade a reliable, but possibly conservative, practice has evolved for the design of blast resistant window systems. Herein, the procedure for glazing design is first summarized. This is then comprehensively compared to the results of various prototype tests. Next, the failure criteria for the glass component of the system is critically considered. Finally, the practice for window frame design is examined with a view toward reliable economies. Over the last 10 years, a design methodology has been formulated, developed and tested for the design of blast resistant glazing. Design procedures have been specifically developed for thermally tempered glass, semi-tempered glass, polycarbonate, laminated tempered, laminated semi-tempered, and annealed laminated glass. A procedure for analyzing monolithic annealed (regular plate or float glass) has also been established (none of the authors recommend annealed or wire glass for blast resistant design). This approach has been subjected to peer review and published in the Department of Defense Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions, Army TM5-1300, Navy NAVFAC P-397, and Air Force AFR 88- 22, the Naval Physical Security Equipment Manual and the Corps of Engineers Security Engineering Manual Handbook. The approach has also been adopted for design by the United States Department of State and other governmental agencies. The theoretical approach used to develop the design curves, tables, and formulas has also been incorporated into many computer programs. Gerald Meyers developed and wrote TM, PE, PR, EMB, WINDOW, BWORK, BLASTOP, and GLASSTOP. Donald Baldwin has incorporated much of the theory into WINDX, GPLAC, WINLAC, SAFEVUE, MAXLITE, VUELITE and MAXVUE.

Book excerpt: Unique single reference supports functional and cost-efficient designs of blast resistant buildings Now there's a single reference to which architects, designers, and engineers can turn for guidance on all the key elements of the design of blast resistant buildings that satisfy the new ASCE Standard for Blast Protection of Buildings as well as other ASCE, ACI, and AISC codes. The Handbook for Blast Resistant Design of Buildings features contributions from some of the most knowledgeable and experienced consultants and researchers in blast resistant design. This handbook is organized into four parts: Part 1, Design Considerations, sets forth basic principles, examining general considerations in the design process; risk analysis and reduction; criteria for acceptable performance; materials performance under the extraordinary blast environment; and performance verification for technologies and solution methodologies. Part 2, Blast Phenomena and Loading, describes the explosion environment, loading functions needed for blast response analysis, and fragmentation and associated methods for effects analysis. Part 3, System Analysis and Design, explains the analysis and design considerations for structural, building envelope, component space, site perimeter, and building system designs. Part 4, Blast Resistant Detailing, addresses the use of concrete, steel, and masonry in new designs as well as retrofitting existing structures. As the demand for blast resistant buildings continues to grow, readers can turn to the Handbook for Blast Resistant Design of Buildings, a unique single source of information, to support competent, functional, and cost-efficient designs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glass fragments are a prime source of injury to occupants of buildings subjected to an explosive event. Health and safety considerations and the principles of a "reasonable duty of care" impose requirements on employers and on the designers and managers of buildings. Two International Standards have been prepared for the test and classification of "Glass in building--Explosion resistant security glazing." These incorporate three test regimes. One standard employs a shock tube method to simulate the blast from large vehicle bombs. The other standard involves two categories of arena tests using live explosives at varying distances. One test series uses small, hand-carried charges of up to 20 kg weight and the other is based upon the blast from 100 kg TNT equivalent vehicle bomb charges, where TNT refers to trinitrotoluene. The three test regimes and classifications are described and compared. The paper demonstrates how the Standards will facilitate the specification, design, and testing of glass and complete glazing systems having compositions from antishatter film applications through to thick and bullet resistant laminated glass. The tests are appropriate for other building components and the Standards will offer a valuable tool to provide safer buildings with blast resistance for protection or hazard reduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Emerging Materials Committee of the Materials Division of ASCE. This report presents a review of the state of the art on emerging materials for use in civil engineering infrastructure. Emerging materials include novel and new materials, as well as traditional materials with profound potential in new applications. A material or class of materials is considered "emerging" if its use has not yet progressed to a stage wherein well-established guidelines, codes, and specifications exist for its use. This report is conveniently divided into chapters that address specific classes of materials andØhighlight the most recent developments in materials technologies relevant to civil infrastructure.Ø Topics include: smart materials for civil engineering applications; fiber reinforced composites in civil infrastructure; emerging geomaterials for ground improvement; aluminum materials and the infrastructure; polymer concrete made with recycled plastics; state of the practice in asphalt technology; emerging uses for masonry materials; and emerging uses for window glass. The practicing engineer, student, or general reader will find this to be an easy-to-use reference for construction material systems that are being developed for use in civil engineering.

Othmer Though there are many industry practices for building design and siting, they do not always apply to all sectors of the industry, or ensure consistent levels of safety. This practical book, written by the same author as API Recommended Practice 752, provides the details to implement the recommended practice, "Management of Hazards Associated with Location of Process Plant Buildings." Its contents include safety guidelines on fire and explosion risks to process plant buildings as a result of events external to the building, which can apply across the spectrum of industries, and to conditions at any site. The book also offers guidance on assessing, screening, and managing risks associated with building design and siting. Two appendices give extensive coverage of explosion and fire phenomena, and effects and principles of blast-resistant design.
