RECENT TRENDS IN BLAST RESISTANT CONSTRUCTION Rohit Maurya [1], Shubhendu Vikram Singh [2] Author [1] & [2] pursuing M.Tech (Geotechnical & Geo-environmental Engineering) from Kamla Nehru Institute of Technology, Sultanpur, UP, 228118 (Mail Id – rohitmaurya12ce@gmail.com, Mob-9897042913)

ABSTRACT As growing no. of terrorist attacks since last few years , we conclude that the effect of these attacks especially bomb blast attacks the causing loads on buildings and other important structure is become a matter to take seriously. We should take all aspects and consideration to increase the architectural and structural resistance by advanced methods of designing, advanced materials and procedure of implication. Because of these are manmade disaster that’s why it’s exceptional cases. These blast loads are actually dynamic in nature like wind and seismic load, to measure and control. So in this study we get some of the latest trends in blast resistance construction methods, material and codal provisions.

INTRODUCTION Due to terrorist attacks, there are large amount of assets waste with fatal damage of human life. Which become social panic to be stop. Constructing structure total blast resistant is not economical and reality based. So new engineering knowledge can improves the structure to decrease the explosion effect.

NEED FOR BLAST RESISTANT STRUCTURE Blast resistant structure is nowadays are getting trendy around the world and it is also getting aware in India as it was so many attack that happened in India that could prevent in presence of blast resistant structure. There are approx. LARGEST ATTACKS AROUND WORLD 1. Manhattan Attack

2. World Trade Centre Bombing 1993 3. The Wall Street bombing 4. 26/11 Mumbai Attack 5. The Okahlama City Bombing 6. 9/11 Attack (WTC)

RECENT TRENDS As we need to look for different aspects we have to go in the recent utilisation field of blast resistant construction around the world and different technologies which is used for these construction. These are as follows: 1. Ultra-high performance concrete and reactive powder concrete slabs 2. Blast-proof masonry wall system and assessment of coupling effects using a TDOF model 3. Blast resistance of stiffened sandwich panels with closed-cell aluminium foam 4. Impulse-resistant metal sandwich plates 5. Blast resistance of polyuria based layered composite materials 6. Polymer composites as construction materials (blast walls) 7. Innovative steel stud walls for blast resistance MATERIALS

USED CONSTRUCTION TRENDS

RECENT

In every few years there’s a change in different construction strategies in architectural, structural, environmental, economical, blast resistant etc. So likewise there’s respective change in the construction materials. There are several variety of material are used in the recent construction works. Which are as follows
