The determination of the blast protection level of laminated glass windows and facades is of crucial importance, and it is normally done by using experimental investigations. In recent years numerical methods have become much more powerful also with respect to this kind of application. This report attempts to give a first idea of a possible standardisation concerning such numerical simulations. Attention is drawn to the representation of the blast loading and of the behaviour of the material of the mentioned products, to the geometrical meshing, as well as to the modelling of the connections of the glass components to the main structure. The need to validate the numerical models against reliable experimental data, some of which are indicated, is underlined.
It is important to protect critical buildings (shopping centres, government buildings and embassies), infrastructure and utilities, train and underground stations from being damaged, destroyed or disrupted by deliberate acts of terrorism, criminal activity and malicious behaviour. Normal regulations and building guidelines do not generally take into account these threats. The introduction of appropriate regulations or guidelines, where deemed necessary, should enhance the resilience of buildings and infrastructures against explosion incidents. In order to protect the built infrastructure, testing methods are required which can answer the question whether certain building elements can withstand certain loading conditions created by an explosive event. The applicable state-of-the-art techniques may include either experimental or numerical methods, or a combination of both. Therefore, the thematic group (TG) on the resistance of structures to explosion effects was formed in order to bring the required expertise together, to make it commonly available and to find and define harmonised methods and solutions which can be provided to the decision-makers responsible for critical infrastructure protection. The TG described in a fist report JPC87202 the physical phenomena which have to be understood in order to ensure a proper testing of the elements and a correct interpretation of the results. In a second step, the differences between the existing standards for testing blast-resistant glazing and windows have been derived, and a basis for fundamental recommendations for the future development of the suite of European standards has been addressed JRC94930. Based on the prior findings, this report now formulates the proper enhancements of the existing standards in terms of actual recommendations for the improvement of the test standards.

ln den letzten Jahren wurden diverse Prüfverfahren und Methoden entwickelt, um die Leistungsfähigkeit von Beton bzw. Bindemittel hinsichtlich des Widerstands gegenüber betonaggressiven Einwirkungen beurteilen zu können. Ein wesentliches Ziel von Prüfverfahren zur Beurteilung der Dauerhaftigkeit von Baustoffen ist, die im Laufe der Nutzungsdauer zu erwartenden Einwirkungen auf den Baustoff realitätsnah abzubilden. Dazu sind die Prüfparameter auf die im jeweiligen Anwendungsbereich vorherrschenden Umgebungs- und Randbedingungen anzupassen. Daneben sind auch die Bewertungskriterien individuell unter Berücksichtigung der im Einzelfall geforderten Nutzungsdauer eines Bauwerks festzulegen. Eine systematische Zuordnung von adäquaten Prüfverfahren bzw. Prüfparametem und Bewertungskriterien für die verschiedenen Anwendungsbereiche im Betonbau, in denen betonaggressive Einwirkungen auftreten, ist mit Ausnahme von Einzelfällen bislang nicht vorhanden. Daneben stellt sich in der Praxis immer wieder das Problem, das Angriffspotenzial der Umgebung eines Bauwerks (prüftechnisch) zu erfassen und zu bewerten.
Der Hauptausschuss Baustofftechnik des DBV hat daher den Arbeitskreis „Chemischer Angriff auf Beton“ beauftragt, dieses Merkblatt zu erarbeiten, das auf Basis von einschlägigen Erfahrungen der Baupraxis und wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen Grundsätze und bewährte Methoden zur Beurteilung der Einwirkungs- und Widerstandsseite beim chemischen Angriff auf Beton aufzeigt und diesbezüglich Hinweise für verschiedene Anwendungsbereiche im Betonbau liefert.
Chemischer Angriff auf Betonbauwerke - Bewertung des Angriffsgrads und geeignete Schutzprinzipien
(2014)
In verschiedenen Bereichen des Betonbaus ist Beton einem chemischen Angriff von außen ausgesetzt, der die Dauerhaftigkeit des betreffenden Bauteils bzw. des gesamten Bauwerks beeinträchtigen kann. Für einen chemischen Angriff in natürlichen Böden und Grundwässern bestehen normative Vorgaben in DIN 4030-1 [R10] bzw. DIN 1045-2 [R19], um den Angriffsgrad anhand der Art und Konzentration der angreifenden Stoffe in Expositionsklassen XA1 (schwach angreifend) bis XA3 (stark angreifend) einzustufen. Hinsichtlich weiterer maßgeblicher Einflussfaktoren wird an dieser Stelle nicht näher differenziert, ob und inwieweit die Regelungen für Böden und Grundwässer auch auf andere Bereiche mit chemischem Angriff auf Beton zu übertragen sind, ist stets im Einzelfall zu überprüfen. Ebenfalls sind die zu treffenden Maßnahmen über die Vorgaben der DIN EN 206-1/DIN 1045-2 [R19] hinaus anwendungsspezifisch festzulegen. Der Hauptausschuss Baustofftechnik (HABT) des DBV hat daher den Arbeitskreis "Chemischer Angriff auf Beton" beauftragt, dieses Merkblatt zu erarbeiten, das Hilfestellung bei der Bewertung einer projektspezifischen chemischen Angriffssituation auf Beton sowie bei der Planung und Ausführung von Schutzprinzipien leisten soll.

The current report summarizes existing best practices for the numerical finite element modelling of blast loading, including the important topics of domain discretisation, implicit/explicit formulation, Lagrangian/Eulerian solvers, the mathematical description of the material behaviour etc. Furthermore recommendations for the modelling of laminated glass elements are formulated and knowledge gaps in this application area are pointed out. Hence the report builds the basis for an actual evaluation of the different numerical methods, their suitability to certain problems, and their capability to support/complement the experimental testing of glass components. It thus provides helpful information to design architects and engineers, and more generally to critical infrastructure stakeholders, responsible for the structural integrity and security of the infrastructure in case of an explosion.
In a joint project of partners from industry and research, the automated recycling of construction and demolition waste (CDW) is investigated and tested by combing laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Joint processing of information (data fusion) is expected to significantly improve the sorting quality of various materials like concrete, main masonry building materials, organic components, etc., and may enable the detection and separation of impurities such as SO3-cotaining building materials (gypsum, aerated concrete, etc.). The project focuses primarily on the Berlin site to analyze the entire value chain, minimize economic/technological barriers and obstacles at the cluster level, and sustainably increase recovery and recycling rates. First measurements with LIBS and NIR spectroscopy show promising results in distinguishing various material types and indicate the potential for a successful combination. In addition, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy is being performed to obtain more information about the quantitative elemental composition of the different building materials. Future work will apply the developed sorting methodology in a fully automated measurement setup with CDW on a conveyor belt.
The determination of the blast protection level of civil engineering buildings components
against explosive effects represents a topic of crucial importance, in current practice. However, some key aspects of blast resistant structures design have been only marginally considered in the last decade, and currently still require appropriate regulations. This is especially true in the case of windows and facades, where the intrinsic material brittleness is the major influencing parameter for blast-resistant assemblies. While blast assessment of buildings and systems is usually achieved by means of experimental investigations, as well as numerical simulations, general regulations and guidelines are currently missing.
In this regard, the European Reference Network for Critical Infrastructure Protection (ERNCIP) Thematic Group “Resistance of Structures to Explosion Effects” attempts to develop guidelines and recommendations aimed to harmonise test procedures in experimental testing of glass windows under blast, as well as standardized approaches for their vulnerability assessment via numerical modelling. In this paper, major Thematic Group outcomes and next challenges are briefly summarized.
