“…irteen typical wide-flange steel columns with two different section sizes, W150 × 24 and W200 × 71, were chosen by Nassr et al [14] to investigate the dynamic responses of the steel columns to blast loads. Only the steel columns with a section size of W150 × 24 and a height of 2413 mm under the blast conditions in shot 1 and shot 3 are analyzed herein.…”

“…When a column is subjected to blast loads, the static compressive axial load induced by the gravity load affects the dynamic response of the column. e specimen analyzed above (W150 × 24) and the blast conditions (shot 1 and shot 3) available in [14] were employed here to investigate the effects of axial loads on the dynamic responses of steel columns. e effects of axial loads were investigated by applying three different axial loads, namely, 0 kN, 270 kN, and 400 kN.…”

“…is approach also has the capability to generate isocontour P-I diagrams of blast-loaded columns. To validate the suggested SDOF approach, the structural loaddeformation characteristics, predicted maximum displacements, and iso-displacement P-I diagrams in this paper were compared against experimental and finite element model (FEM) results from [5,14], respectively.…”

In this paper, a complicated single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) approach was developed to determine the global response of steel columns under combined axial and blast-induced transverse loads. Nonlinear section and member analyses were incorporated into the suggested SDOF method to account for the complex features of the material behavior, the high strain rate effect, and the column geometry. The SDOF technique was validated through comparisons with available finite element and experimental data, and a good consistency was obtained. Then, the validated SDOF approach was utilized to derive the pressure-impulse curves under various levels of axial loading. The level of the axial load was shown to have a significant influence on the dynamic behavior of a steel column subjected to a blast load.
