Effect of Berming on the Response of Structures Subjected to Nearby Detonations
A series of small scale blast experiments was performed in order to study the effect of having a soil berm outside the wall of a structure. The experimental results showed in general good agreement with the results based on the pressure-impulse (P-I) diagram theory. This theoretical approach could be used for the study of a large concrete wall exposed to nearby detonations, showing that in most situations, a soil berm tends to reduce the vulnerability of protected structures.
