Present Status and Future Problems on the Impact Resistance Performance Design of Civil Engineering Protective Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

There are many civil engineering structures that have different systems and required functions. Their design methods do not have consistent design concepts. Thus, it has been pointed out the necessity of universal concepts on assumed external actions and risk for various structures and on the required level of safety. In order to meet those demands, a research committee as part of Japan Society of Civil Engineers summarizing the basic concepts of impact resistance design. This paper introduces several design methods of structures subjected to impact loads, and presents the current status and remaining issues of establishing new performance-based design methods.
