TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of one-way square reinforced concrete (RC) slabs subjected to a blast load through experiments and numerical simulations is investigated and different damage levels and modes are observed.

TL;DR: In this article, the scaling of the dynamic response of one-way square reinforced concrete slabs subjected to close-in blast loadings was investigated using two scaled distances, and the results showed that the macrostructure damage and fracture in the experiments are almost similar.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the damage character of reinforced concrete beams under close-in blast loading through experiments and showed that the spallation area increases with the decrease of the scaled distance.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the anti-blast performance and damage characteristics of reinforced concrete slab with different reinforcement ratios through both blast experiments and numerical simulations and found that the deflection thickness ratio of RC slab is inversely proportional to the scale distance and the reinforcement ratio.

TL;DR: In this article, the anti-blast performance and damage characteristics of reinforced concrete beams with different stirrup ratios were analyzed through experimental and numerical study, and the results demonstrate that the deflection thickness ratio of RC beam is inversely proportional to the scale distance and the stirrup ratio.
