A set of tools to simplify your understanding to some major concepts in the effect of blast on structures.
Tool
Concrete Wall
A tool that provides the necessary steps to design a concrete wall for a specified blast load. The tool follows the design procedure outlined in the ASCE document: Design of Blast-Resistant Buildings in Petrochemical Facilities
Tool
Concrete Wall P-I Curve
A tool that draws the Pressure-Intensity (P-I) curve for a concrete wall with a specified dimensions. The Pressure-Intensity curve is a powerful tool that can be used in the design of structural elements to measure its capability to resiste blast loads
Tool
Steel Beam
A tool that provides the necessary steps to design a steel beam of a W or C-Section for a specified blast load. The tool follows the design procedure outlined in the ASCE document: Design of Blast-Resistant Buildings in Petrochemical Facilities.
Tool
Steel Beam P-I Curve
A tool that draws the Pressure-Intensity (P-I) curve for a steel beam of specified dimensions. The Pressure-Intensity curve is a powerful tool that can be used in the design of structural elements to measure its capability to resiste blast loads.
