Collapse Analysis of Pre-Engineering Building Subjected to Blast Load

By: Jain, Ankush Kumar

This book investigates the collapse behavior of a pre-engineered building (PEB) subjected to blast loading. PEBs, known for their lightweight and modular design, are vulnerable to high-intensity dynamic loads. The analysis focuses on structural response, deformation patterns, and failure mechanisms using finite element modeling. Results highlight critical weak points, particularly at joints and connections, where stress concentrations lead to progressive collapse. Understanding these vulnerabilities is essential for improving blast resistance through enhanced design and material selection. The findings provide insight into structural resilience and inform strategies for safeguarding similar buildings in high-risk environments.
