Elastomeric Polymers for Retrofitting of Reinforced Concrete Structures against the Explosive Effects of Blast by S. N. Raman, T. Ngo, P. Mendis, T. Pham

“…This paper presents an overview of the present retrofitting techniques in use to enhance the capacity of structural elements to withstand the effects of blast loads, and introduces an alternative retrofitting approach by utilizing polymer coatings. The authors have demonstrated the positive effects of this approach by conducting a numerical investigation on the behavior of an unretrofitted reinforced concrete panel subjected to the blast load from a 2 kg charge at 1.6 m stand-off distance, and subsequently comparing its performance with several polymer coated panels. …”
