Fire, Blast and Extreme Loading

Fire

  • Effects of high temperature on the performance of concrete members reinforced with FRP bars (PRIN2006)
  • Behaviour at high temperatures of RC members strengthened with the NSM technique applied with cement mortars.
  • Passive protection of metallic elements with intumescent paints.
  • Fire resistance of steel and steel-concrete composite structures (COSTC26 and Commissione Fuoco)
  • Fire safety engineering for new and existing buildings (COST actions)
  • Fire Risk Assessment for the selection of fire scenarios METROPOLIS

Blast and extreme actions

  • performance-based blast engineering,
  • structural vulnerability to deliberate explosions (terrorist attacks) and accidental explosions (gas leaks from building utility service systems and pipelines)
  • structural vulnerability to landslides and large settlements due to subsidence and soil holes, structural robustness
  • resilience of urban systems to extreme events
  • the vulnerability related to malicious actions of transport infrastructures
