As steel reinforced concrete has got wide range of applications, this project is an attempt to study the dynamic behavior of steel reinforced concrete subjected to blast and pressure loadings using a non-linear finite element code LS-DYNA (version 971). The aim of this project was to analyze various parameters of a steel reinforced concrete slab by validating three of the concrete material models in LS-DYNA.

The first part of the project consists of validating three concrete material models in LS-DYNA by applying boundary conditions on simple single elements. The next part consists of using these three concrete material models of LS-DYNA (version 971) for the study of blast and pressure load analysis on a steel reinforced concrete slab for two different strengths of concrete with two different mesh sizes.

The main purpose of this analysis was to provide the behavior of these concrete material models subjected to blast loads, which would be a better guide for future applications.
