Anti-explosion Performance of a New Type of Polyurea-Coated Corrugated Steel Plate Reinforced Concrete Slab

Improving the explosion resistance of the building wall has been a hot topic in the current protection engineering research, in this process, corrugated steel and polyisocyanate oxazolidine (POZD) were widely used, but there are few studies on the anti-explosion performance of the composite structure of the two. In this paper, the effects of POZD and corrugated steel on the explosion resistance of POZD-coated corrugated steel plate reinforced concrete slab (PSRC) under contact explosion were studied by test and numerical simulation. The finite element (FE) model of the PSRC slab was established by using Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) method. The principle of POZD coating reinforced structure was revealed by analyzing the attenuation process of stress wave propagation in the structure. Subsequently, a series of numerical calculations were conducted to investigate the effect of POZD thickness and corrugated steel angle on the performance of the PSRC slab under explosive load. The relationship between structural damage characteristics and the POZD coating was established, the empirical formula of the normalized maximum mid-span displacement considering POZD thickness and TNT mass was obtained. The effect of corrugated steel with different angles on its anti-explosion performance was analyzed, the empirical formula of the maximum deflection considering corrugated steel angle and TNT mass was obtained. Studies have shown that the peak stress of the stress wave generated by the explosion is only 2.79% of the incident wave after the POZD coating is coated on the back of the structure, the anti-explosion performance of the structure is greatly improved. Increasing the thickness of POZD can significantly increase the anti-explosion performance of PSRC slab, the maximum deflection of PSRC slab decreases exponentially with increasing POZD thickness. The explosion resistance of PSRC slab was enhanced with increasing corrugated steel angles. The corrugated steel angles is 50 , the improvement effect of PSRC is the best.
