BLAST LOAD

By: Jivani Dipak

Need of considering blast load

loading To Grow awareness of the risks associated with important structures has led to advances in the application of analysis of blast and impact.

Blast loading.
During the e plosion!there is sudden e pansion of small amount of air surrounding the e plosive!which causes increased pressure in that small area around the e plosive.

Design loads resulting from aircraft impacts are governed by the absorption of kinetic energy from the aircraft by the building at its ma imum deflection.
