c. Drilling, cutting and reinforcing for hardware
d. Hardware, weather strip, insulation and insulation covering
e. Opening/closing system, where provided
f. Shop-assembly.

- Doors/windows shall be bonderized / primerized at Manufacturer shop and Painted at site


according to painting specification NIOEC-SP-80-02.

2. DESIGN

2.1 Definition

Blast resistant doors/windows will be designed to blast load


produced by the short –term dynamic pressure due to the explosion of a “500
pounds G.P. aerial bomb” blasting at ground level, at 10 metres distance
from the door.

2.2 Blast load


Doors and windows shall be designed for a “peak reflected pressure” of
473.6 Kpa (68.64 psi ) and a duration of 7 milliseconds.

2.3 Required dynamic resistance in the direction of blast load shall be


calculated in accordance with the procedure outlined in ASCE Manual 42, or
an equivalent accepted method which takes dynamic response into account .
The following general formula ( see ASCE 42 ) may be used:
p
R = ---------------------
√a aτ
--------- +---------------------
πτ 2δm ( τ + 0.7 )
where:
R= required dynamic resistance of structural member, expressed as
Static load equivalent of blast pressure and duration, KPa

P= peak reflected pressure ,KPa

a= energy absorption factor = 2 δm -1

δm = displacement factor = Xm/Xy = 10

τ = duration factor to/т

79
JULY, 2005 NIOEC-SP-30-04(0)
Xm = maximum allowable dynamic displacement, mm.

Xy = effective displacement at initial yield, mm.

To = duration of blast load, milliseconds

T = fundamental period of vibration of the structure or element under


Consideration, milliseconds.

2.4 Required rebound resistance opposite to the direction of blast shall be


not less than 25% of the dynamic resistance calculated according to
previous para. 2.3.

2.5 Structure Design capacity


The dynamic capacity of structural elements shall be determined according
to the plastic design method for structural steel as provided by AISC
specification, except that dynamic strengths of materials can be taken as
follows:
- for steel with fy ≤ 415 M p a:
. Direct tension or flexure ( fay ) : 1.2 fy
. Direct compression : ≤ 1.2 fy
. Shear ( fay ) : 0.6 fy

2.6 Additional Design Requirements

2.6.1 Door displacement under design blast load shall be limited in such a way that all latch
operating mechanism will remain operable after blasting.
For this purpose operating bars shall be provided with proper hinged joints, allowing the
mechanism to remain operable also after displacement of the door panel due to blast
effect.

2.6.2 Latch and hinges mechanism shall be designed to withstand the loads stated In previous
para.2.4
In all cases the latch shall be designed to fail before the hinges.

2.6.3 Windows and sash shall possess energy absorption capacity praor to collapse, more than
twice that required to resist the design blast loading.

2.7 Drawings

Complete construction drawings shall be prepared by the vendor. Such drawings shall
incorporate details of all door components, dimensions, material quality etc. Cutting, drilling,
stiffening and details of anchoring to reinforced concrete walls shall also be shown on the
drawings, together with necessary instructions for doors /windows erection.
