hii am designing a blast resistant underground structure. is it necessary to provide damping to the structure. my analysis method is equivalent statics method

Lee Clawson

Zeenath Abdul Azeez Zeenath, I recommend you ignore the "equivalent statics method" and do everything you can to protect the people and/or object inside a blast resistant structure. In essence, you do not want accumulative micro fractures to lead to sudden failure. Damping is not magic. But designing with "none" adds unnecessary risk.
