Objective Composite steel-concrete members provide ideal systems for impact and blast resistance, which have not been utilised to their full potential due to the lack of appropriate investigations, particularly when using high-strength materials.This programme aims to develop design guidance, for members incorporating conventional and/or high-strength materials, under extreme impact and blast loading. The work will involve experimental and theoretical determination of bearing and rotational capacities, coupled with complementary dynamic tests and non-linear analyses.Evaluation of residual strength/damage will also enable assessment of interactions with probable subsequent loading scenarios, such as ensuing fires, with a view to providing performance-based design procedures.
