Analytical correlation of large mass, low velocity missile impact tests on reinforced concrete panels

  • 1. Bechtel Power Corp., Gaithersburg, MD (USA)

Description

An important consideration in the design of nuclear power plants is the inadvertent drop of heavy components which may be transported above safety related structures. The need for improved analytical models to represent the structural behavior of concrete beam and slab elements subjected to relatively high-mass low-velocity missile impact prompts the test program this paper discusses
