Riassunto

Sponsored by the Task Committee on Blast-Resistant Design of the Energy Division of ASCE.

Design of Blast-Resistant Buildings in Energy and Industrial Facilities, Third Edition, provides general guidelines and three worked design examples for the structural design of blast-resistant buildings. This new edition incorporates updates regarding new developments within structural blast engineering in energy and industrial facilities including risk-based facility siting, new building types, loading on elevated buildings, new screening level guidance, and mitigation using energy-absorbing systems.

 

Topics include

·       Determination of loads,

·       Types of construction,

·       Dynamic material strength and response criteria,

·       Dynamic analysis methods,

·       Design procedures,

·       Ancillary and architectural considerations,

·       Evaluation and upgrade of existing buildings,

·       Shear wall building design example,

·       Metal building design example, and

·       Masonry retrofit design example.

 

This book will be of interest to structural engineers and engineers in the petrochemical, power generation, pharmaceutical, and other chemical processing industries. This third edition will aid professionals working on the design of structures and buildings to resist the effects of blasts, explosions, and impactive/impulsive loads.
