Penetration, Scabbing and Perforation are the basic elements of
designing protective concrete structures against the impact of hard
projectile. Vital structures such as nuclear plants, power plants,
military structures, weapon industries, weapons storage places,
bunkers, water retaining structures (dams, barrages, etc.),
chemical and local industries, highway and railway bridges,
tunnels, flyways, barriers etc have to be designed as
self-protective structures against impact loading generated by
natural disaster (tsunami, hurricane, tornado, wind storm, sand
storm and earthquakes etc), consciously engendered unpleasant
incidents (terrorist attacks etc), against accidentally occur
incidents in nuclear plants, weapon industries, weapon storage
places, local industries, and collision of air crafts, buses,
trains with buildings, etc. Impact energy is the dominant cause of
damage in dynamics. When hard projectile collides with concrete
slab, it is the impact energy of the projectile that makes concrete
slab to deform. Therefore, this book is curiously focused on the
required critical impact energy of Hard Projectile causing
Penetration, Scabbing, and Perforation of Concrete Slab.
