3 Course Description pg 3 Facilities constructed for the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) must often be designed for blast loads in accordance with antiterrorism requirements stipulated in UFC As cross-laminated timber (CLT) and other mass timber solutions continue making inroads in federal construction projects, demand for a design methodology complete with response limits for CLT construction exposed to blast loads has emerged. This presentation will provide a primer on general blast design requirements for DoD facilities and introduce a blast design methodology for CLT construction based on two years of testing research.

4 Learning Objectives pg 4 1. Provide an overview of DoD antiterrorism design criteria. 2. Review essential concepts used to analyze structural components for blast loads. 3. Discuss analytical response limits appropriate for CLT construction exposed to blast loads based on a suite of test data. 4. Introduce a design methodology for CLT construction exposed to blast loads that considers both panels and connections.

5 Background pg 5 Inhabited DoD buildings must comply w/ UFC Conventional construction concept. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is not **currently** conventional construction.

6 Overview pg 6 Topics CLT introduction Airblast load analysis basic concepts Resistance function suitable for SDOF dynamic analysis Response limits based on test results Analysis guidance assumes: Far-field explosion Airblast load idealized as transient uniformly-applied load

7 CLT Introduction Overview pg 7 Developed in Austria & Germany Engineered wood panel Bonded with structural adhesives and pressed CLT Handbook, US Edition Panel variation Ply number Wood species Grade classification distinction

9 Brief Introduction/Review of Blast Loading and Dynamic Analysis for Blast Effects pg 9 The objective of this introduction is to briefly describe the concepts and methods employed in the blast-resistant design of facilities. Important definitions and acronyms (ASCE 59-11) Standoff, R Charge Weight, W Scaled Distance, Z = R/W 1/3 Far Range: ~ Z > 3.0 Near Range: ~ Z < 3.0 Rate Effects Dynamic Increase Factor, DIF R 1, W 1 R 2, W 2

10 Blast Loads pg 10 Define an explosion. Define characteristics of a blast load and the parameters used to define it. Introduce tools used to compute blast loads. Goals: Know how blast loads are computed on structures for simple scenarios. Understand limitations of simple models.

11 What is an Explosion? pg 11 Baker et al. (1983) definition: an explosion is said to have occurred in the atmosphere if energy is released over a sufficiently small time and in a sufficiently small volume so as to generate a pressure wave of finite amplitude traveling away from the source. However, the release is not considered to be explosive unless it is rapid enough and concentrated enough to produce a pressure wave that one can hear. National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) definition: The sudden conversion of potential energy (chemical, mechanical, or nuclear) into kinetic energy that produces and violently releases gas. Key points: Sudden release of energy Produces, as a minimum, an audible sound Not tied to actual or potential damage

12 Combustion Basics pg 12 Basic chemistry: y y C x H y x O2 xco2 H2O energy / heat 4 2 High pressures and temperatures leads to an expansion of the gas Deflagration vs. Detonation Deflagration: subsonic combustion (< Mach 1) Detonation: supersonic combustion (> Mach 1)

13 Important Characteristics of a Blast Load pg 13 Point in space (incident pressure) Point on reflecting surface (Reflected pressure)

14 Example scenarios illustrating the effects of reflecting surfaces pg 14 Explosive Pressure Gauge Pressure Gauge o Free Air Burst Surface Burst Pressure Gauge Pressure Gauge Surface Burst w/ Reflecting Structure Barrier Surface Burst w/ Reflecting Structure and Barrier

15 Roof and rear blast loadings Incident pressures Dynamic pressures Axis of Symmetry Explosive 4 o o 3 o 2 o 1 5 o pg 15 Pressure Gauges 6 o o 7 o 8 o 9 Ground

16 How to calculate blast loads pg 16 Definitions: R = Standoff or range [ft, m] W = Charge weight/mass [lb-f, kg] Z=R/W 1/3 = Scaled range Type of reflecting surfaces and confinement Four general approaches exist: Hand calculations or look-up charts. Software implementations of look-up charts. Engineering-based shock reflection codes. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) codes.

17 Unified Facilities Criteria UFC pg 17 UFC Also known as Army TM , NAVFAC P-397, AFR Provides the best compendium of material that is publicly available on the subject of blast effects on structures. Material is basic in nature and represents the traditional approaches to blast engineering. A lot of useful charts for blast load calculation covering many scenarios. Detailed discussion on design approaches and procedures for hardened structures.

24 Structural Response pg 24 Introduce the concept of a resistance function. Describe the models that can be used to estimate their response. Range-to-effect and Pressure-Impulse (PI) models Single-Degree-of-Freedom (SDOF) models Finite element (FE) or Computational Solid Dynamics (CSD) models Goals: Understand the basic structural behaviors seen under blast loads. Know how the effects of blast loads are determined for structures under simple blast scenarios. Understand the limitations (and complexities) associated with each approach.

25 The Concept of a Resistance Function (a.k.a., Resistance-Deflection curve) pg 25 Analogous to a load-deflection response, or in structural engineering, a push-over curve. Particular to a component under a known (or assumed) response mode and a prescribed load. Resistance [Units: Pressure, force/area ] R u Plastic Elastic-Plastic Elastic Perfectly plastic behavior Softening behavior Membrane behavior Deflection [Units: Length ]

26 How to determine a resistance function pg 26 (1) Compute it using structural mechanics (2) Experiments (3) Computational finite element models In reality, all three are needed to develop reliable resistance functions. Much research has gone into this over the last decade. Software programs available for different components

29 Blast vs. seismic design from an SDOF perspective pg 29 Earthquake Loading is proportional to the mass. Blast Loading is proportional to the exposed area. More mass is bad. More mass helps. Ductility is desirable. Ductility is desirable. Damping helps. Damping helps, although is typically not accounted for.
