The primary objective of the study was to determine the response, to collapse, of buried semicircular, unreinforced concrete fixed-end arches of varying stiffnesses when subjected to both static and dynamic loads.

The objective of the study was to investigate and verify model-to-prototype scaling relations for blast loaded buried arches that respond both elastically and inelastically. Four geometrically similar, semicircular aluminum alloy arches with 4-, 8-, 12-, and 36-inch diameters were buried in dense dry sand and subjected to air-blast-induced loads on the surface. The tests were conducted at the Large Blast Load Generator located at the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. The results of two series of tests, each consisting of 3 repeated shots, ranging from 70 to 300 psi, are presented. Within the range of parameters investigated, the scaling of the dependent variables were adequately verified. These variables included acceleration, velocity, displacement, thrust, and bending moment. (Author).

The determination of the loads on and behavior of shallow-buried arch structures is complicated by the geometry of the arch and by existence if soil structures arches interaction effects. A common approach to the analysis of buried is to idealize the structure as a lumped parameter single degree of freedom (SDOF) system. The parameters which must be assumed for input into the SDOF model include a loading function and a structural resistance deflection relationship. The applied load on a buried arch due to overpressure at the ground surface includes a radial and a tangential component. The radial component can be measured experimentally; however, there seems to be no available transducers to measure the tangential component or interface friction. Two 1/12-scale model reinforced concrete arches were tested statically in a sand backfill. The arches were semicircular with an inside radius of 1 foot 9 inches and a thickness of 2 inches. One arch was covered with two layers of 1/32-inch-thick Teflon at the soil-structure interface to significantly reduce the interface friction, and the loading and behavior of the two arches were compared. Pretest finite element calculations were conducted to estimate the arch behavior. Based on both the experimental data and posttest calculations, it appears that interface friction on a shallow buried arch has an effect on its behavior, at least for the case of static loads. The load path at sections in the arch with a lower friction coefficient at the interface tended more toward pure compression than it did in the other arch.

Predicting Blast Induced Body Motions Of A Buried Structure With Footings written by Jay R. Allgood and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1967 with categories.
An approximate theory is presented for predicting the absolute and relative body deflections of shallow-buried shelters in order to provide the designer with a rational approach for selecting footing dimensions. The theory consists of two coupled parts, one that describes the motion of the free field and another that defines the motion of a model of the structure, its foundation, and the covering soil. The soil characteristics are represented by straight-line approximations to the loading and unloading portions of the stress-strain diagram from a one-dimensional compression test. Incremental strains are integrated as the stress wave propagates downward to obtain the absolute free-field displacement at the elevation of the footings. Motion of the structure is represented by a single-degree-of-freedom analog. Empirical functions are used to represent footing reaction and arching in the model of the structure. These functions are incorporated in the differential equation of motion, which is solved with the aid of a digital computer. The results are compared with available test data; velocities and deflections agree reasonably well but the magnitude of the peak accelerations from the theory are larger than the corresponding measurements. Computations performed with the computer code indicate that surface loads above about 100 psi cannot be resisted if the maximum relative deflection between the footing and the floor slab is limited to 2 inches.
