SUPPORTING STUDIES TO ESTABLISH SAFETY DESIGN CRITERIA FOR STORAGE AND PROCESSING OF EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS.

Abstract

Picatinny Arsenal is presently engaged in an extensive systematic testing program which has as its ultimate objective the establishment of design standards for use in engineering of new explosive storage facilities as well as in the modification of existing facilities. Presented are the results of 40 explosive tests of one-third scale reinforced concrete slabs. The major portion of these tests was conducted under a program entitled Support Studies to Establish Safety Design Criteria for Storage and Processing of Explosive Materials. (Author)
