Abstract

In this paper, a falling-weight impact test using real arch type RC structures was conducted to verify a proposed impact response analysis method. An applicability of the numerical analysis method was confirmed comparing with the experimental results. And an applicability of the current impact resistant design procedure to the performance based design procedure was investigated using the proposed numerical analysis method. From this study, it is confirmed that applying the current impact resistant design procedure, performance based impact resistant design with enough safety margin may be performed for the arch type RC structures.
