Basis for design material properties

Material strength
Applied yield strength Fy = 355 N/mm (St. 52 or equivalent)
Ultimate strength
Fu = 510 N/mm

Dynamic yield stress

Fdy = Fy x SIF x DIF
SIF = Strength increase factor
SIF = 1,1 for structural steel
SIF = 1,2 for cold formed steel cladding panels

DIF = Dynamic increase factor:

DIF = 1.29 for bending/ shear
DIF = 1.19 for tension/ compression

Applied material properties

Structural steel Fdy = 504/465 N/mm (Bending-Shear/tension-compression)
Sheeting
Fdy = 550/507 N/mm(Bending-Shear/tension-compression)

Design modeling & analyses

Computer programs & analyses

Local wall and roof analyses
The structural impact and response to the blast pressures to the
external walls and roof are analysed by means of a time domain
non-linear physical excel software.
Overall frame design
The overall structural blast response calculation is performed with
the software STAAD.PRO.
The peak dynamic reactions from the walls and roof are applied to
the frame members.
