This technical book is devoted to the empirical and theoretical analysis of how structures and the materials constituting them perform under the extreme conditions of explosions, fire, and impact. Each of the 119 fully refereed presentations is published here for the first time and was selected because of its original contribution to the science and engineering of how materials, bridges, buildings, tunnels and their components, such as beams and pre-stressed parts, respond to potentially destructive forces. Emphasis is placed on translating empirical data to design recommendations for strengthening structures, including strategies for fire and earthquake protection as well as blast mitigation. Technical details are provided on the development and behavior of new resistant materials, including reinforcements, especially for concrete, steel and their composites.Some of the highlights of the book include: Original research on performance of materials under a wide variety of blasts, impacts, severe loading and fire; Critical information for protecting buildings and civil infrastructure against human attack, deterioration and natural disasters; Test and design data for new types of concrete, steel and FRP materials.
