Application of Blast Resistant Design Model for Safer Cities
Cities across world are affected continuously with terrorist attacks. These attacks happens particularly on Embassies, Parliaments, trade centres and others significant buildings. The nature of the blast intensity in case of terrorist attach depends upon the detonator used and its distance from the ground zero. The research here present a design of blast resistant building planned in Mumbai, India. The design showcase a model blast resistant method that can be applied for the design of similar buildings affected by terrorist attacks. Some of the key aspect of this model methods are blast intensity, blast load and retaining wall. Moreover, the chapter, illustrates how does the structural components of building reacts during the blast? How can we plan for safer cities? How the important institutional buildings can be protected in event of terrorist attach? What kind of urban planning is essential for blast resistant cities. Furthermore, a case illustrates the details design for blast resistant buildings.
