摘要

A numerical model that facilitates frame analysis for a structure that has been damaged by blast and subsequently is subjected to fire is developed. The approach captures the details of the behavior of the frame members, including stability effects in the presence of the high strain rates associated with the blast. Fire-blast interaction diagrams are presented-these are used to determine the fire resistance of the blast-damaged members. Following the complete analysis of a multi-story frame, to allow the quantification of the complex interaction between fire and blast, it is shown that the frame has low fire resistance in the aftermath of the blast.
