Wood is inherently light weight, flexible and brittle, which means that timber buildings are not expected to resist blast loading in a manner that adequately protects occupants against accidental and intentional explosions. In particular, protecting human lives requires prevention of progressive collapse and minimization of ‘debris throw'. Studies by the applicant and collaborators using a unique Shock Tube Facility at the University of Ottawa has already influenced blast related design code requirements in Canada. However much more needs to be done.*******The overarching objective of proposed research is mitigation of hazards associated with blast loads on timber buildings. This will be achieved by establishing risk evaluation strategies and developing technically and economically viable innovative retrofit methods for new and existing buildings. The research program will generate completely new information and be the basis of HQP research training. The main focus of the experimental component of the research program will be on establishing the behaviour of heavy timber elements and devising retrofit options for existing buildings that may be vulnerable to blast events. This includes examining the effects of fibre reinforced polymers to provide confinement to the wood elements and the use of post-tensioning techniques using steel guy cable and carbon FRP bars. The analytical component will include development of nonlinear material compliance models. Once developed and verified, those models will be used for dynamic analysis and parametric studies of building structures and substructures.*******The proposed research program has a great potential to significantly impact the knowledge base in the field of blast design of wood structures. The output from the research will yield data that would introduce provisions to the blast design standard. Ductility ratios and support rotations for various levels of protection and values for the dynamic increase factor are important examples of potential contributions to the profession. The research program will help ensure that engineers in Canada have the best possible knowledge and information to support design decisions for wood structures. Furthering knowledge on the behaviour of timber structures under blast loads will improve safety while adding highly trained and dedicated professionals to the Canadian workforce. Importance and novelty of the proposed research is the creation of material models for wood elements, which will enable analysts to predict behaviour of timber buildings subjected to blast loading without reliance on empiricism. Intent is to enable a leap from need to rely on prescriptive method to engineering blast design practice, which is comparable to the transition which took fire design of timber buildings from an art to an applied science in the late 20th century.******

木材本质上重量轻、柔韧且易碎，这意味着木结构建筑不能以充分保护居住者免受意外和故意爆炸的方式抵抗爆炸荷载，特别是，保护人类生命需要防止逐渐倒塌并最大限度地减少爆炸。申请人和合作者在渥太华大学使用独特的激波管设施进行的研究已经影响了加拿大与爆炸相关的设计规范要求。*******总体目标。拟议的研究是缓解这将通过为新建和现有建筑制定风险评估策略和开发技术上和经济上可行的创新改造方法来实现。该研究计划的实验部分的主要重点是确定重型木材构件的性能，并为可能容易受到爆炸事件影响的现有建筑物设计改造方案，其中包括检查纤维增强聚合物的影响。木材元素及其使用使用钢拉索和碳纤维增强塑料杆的后张拉技术。分析部分将包括非线性材料柔度模型的开发，一旦开发和验证，这些模型将用于建筑结构和下部结构的动态分析和参数研究。*** ****拟议的研究计划具有对木结构爆炸设计领域的知识库产生重大影响的巨大潜力，研究成果将产生为爆炸设计标准引入规定的数据。各种保护级别的轮换和动态增加的值该研究计划将有助于确保加拿大的工程师拥有尽可能多的知识和信息来支持木结构的设计决策，进一步了解木结构在爆炸载荷下的行为将提高安全性。同时，拟议研究的重要性和新颖性在于为木材构件创建材料模型，这将使​​分析人员能够在不依赖经验主义的情况下预测木结构建筑在爆炸荷载下的行为。实现从需要到依赖的飞跃工程爆破设计实践的规范性方法，相当于 20 世纪末木结构建筑防火设计从艺术到应用科学的转变。******
