Analytical Study of Concrete-encased Steel Column Building against Blast Load
Abstract: Study of behavior of composite building with Concrete-Encased Steel (CES) columns for blast loading is done. This is compared with the behavior of conventional building having reinforced concrete (RC) columns. In the following study, both composite and RC buildings are subjected to 0.1 ton, 0.3 ton and 0.5 ton TNT equivalent charge weight of blast load with a standoff distance of 20 m, 30 m and 40 m. To study …

Behavior of R.C. Buildings with Steel Encased Elements Subjected to Impact Loads
Abstract: This study examines the resilience of steel-encased concrete column beams and frames against blast loads, a crucial concern in regions prone to terrorist threats or accidental explosions. An exhaustive literature review establishes the historical context and theoretical frameworks of blast-resistant design. The research employs finite element analysis (FEA) simulations to study the dynamic behavior of these structures under various blast scenarios, revealing insights into load distribution, deformation, and failure mechanisms. …
