Anchorage Design for Blast-Resistant Windows - 59-83 p.
This paper presents a summary of experimental research on the performance of blast-resistant window anchors and the development of a design procedure for the ancors.The experimental results, obtained from forty-six window tests conducted under simulated blast loading using a shock tube are reported. Two analysis procedures that were developed for anchor design are described. The first procedure involves a two-degree-of-freedom dynamic analysis. The second procedure involves a single degree of freedom analysis that can be implemented manually. The development of both methods is presented for the anchorage design of windows subjected to blast loads.
