Retrofit of an Elevated Metal Building in an LNG Faciliity to Resist Blast Loading Resulting from an External Accidental Explosion
An elevated one-story steel control building in a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facility was originally designed to resist wind and moderate seismic loads. Due to a change in the facility layout, the building became subjected to risk from a vapor cloud explosion. It was determined that the existing design could not withstand this over-pressure and due to schedule and operational constraints by the facility owner, the existing design required retrofitting to resist the blast over-pressures. The paper presented, utilizes the single degree of freedom (SDOF) and the multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) approach for performing a non-linear dynamic analysis to minimize the extent of retrofits to the control building without impacting foundation design or operational conditions.
