REV: D1 ENGINEERING STANDARD _ BUILDINGS
1.0 SCOPE
ww This Standard specifies the requirements for the design of the reinforced
conerete control building which is required to withstand blast loading.
1.2 The significant risk of accidental release of flammable materials of
sufficient magnitude to form a vapour cloud capable of explosion is
described as that for a Category 1 Plant in Section § of Publication
referred to in Clause 2.3.1 of this Standard.
13 The reinforced concrete control building shall be designed with shear wall
structures, whereby the horizontal blast forces on the building are
transmitted to the foundations by means of deep beam and shear wall
action of the reinforced concrete roof, wall and floor slabs
1.4 This Standard shall be read in conjunction with Vietnamese mandatory
standards, codes and regulations which also apply. In the event of any
conflict, Contractor shall seek clarification from VietRoss before
proceeding. Generally, the most stingent requirements shall apply.

Philosophy of Protectic
The underlying philosophy of the design of the control building against
blast loading shall be broadly in agreement with Publication referred to in
Clause 2.3.1 of this Standard. The design shall achieve the following
objectives:6960-8300-SP-0004 DESIGN OF 8LAST
PAGE: 6
3.2
FOSTER WHEELER RESISTANT CONTROL
ENGINEERING STANDARD BUILDINGS.
a) The safety of the plant personnel located in the building shall be
maximised at the time of an incident giving rise to an unconfined
vapour cloud explosion (UVCE).
b) Control of the plant shall be maintained, as far as possible, to allow
monitoring and shut down of the other parts of the process.
¢} Plant records shall be protected and maintained to aid in any post
icident investigations.
Philosophy of Structural Design
To achieve the above objectives, the structural design parameters
specified in this Standard are selected to enable the building to survive
one incident arising from an ‘at of near ground level’ explosion. The aim
being that the occupants shall be protected and the equipment
sufficiently preserved in working condition after the explosion. Under the
worst conditions, a major part of the plant would probably require re-
building and damage to the control building, whilst not reaching collapse
might render it unserviceable for further operation without re-building,
A considerable spread of effects are possible from a given Unconfined
Vapour-Cloud Explosion. This usually requires consideration of the
effects of three different blast waves in any particular design. Two of
these loadings considered “appropriate” when checked for compliance to
deformation limits specified and the third considered "extreme" is used to
check that the design for the more severe of the more normal loadings
would not reach ultimate collapse in terms of deformation of members of
the structure itself. Each blast wave is considered to be propagated as a
planar wave with a vertical face travelling in a horizontal direction at a
velocity of 426m/sec.
Whilst it is possible to carry out dynamic analysis on a structure to
represent the effect of blast waves, this Standard utilises an equivalent
static loading method, generally based upon the reference given in Clause
2.3.1 above.

44 Blast Loading
4nd Building Location
‘The Control building shall be as located on the plot plan and as far as
practicable (not less than 30m) from the nearest source of hazard giving
‘ise to about 15 tonnes of flammable vapour.
41.2 Building Shape
A Control Building should generally be arranged in the form of a single
storey simple rectangular box with minimum height.
In developing the building layout for the reinforced concrete shear wall
structure consideration shall be given to the provision of transverse
internal crosswalis within the structure, Where these can be provided in
a symmetrical pattern they will be beneficial in spreading loads and
reducing spans. Clear spans shall not be greater than 10m and internal
columns provided where internal shear wails cannot be provided.
Positioning of doorways in shear walls shall be carefully considered
Large openings shall not be positioned closer to the junction of two shear
walls than the internal height of the building
41.3 Positive and Negative Blast Pressures
‘The dynamic biast loadings acting on the building may be in the form of
positive pressures or as negative (or suction) pressures. A simplified
approach using “equivalent static” loads shall be used for this project.
The building elements shall be designed to withstand the maximum
combination of dead and live static loads given in Table 1.

The rebound resistance of a structural element shall not be less than
75% of the positive resistance to the element.
5.1.2 Deflection of Reinforced Concrete Beams
For deflection calculation purposes the Moment of Inertia of the section
shall be taken as the average of the Inertia of the gross conerete section
and the Inertia of the cracked section.
5.1.3 Design i
The limiting resistance (Ry) of a structural element to resist load shall be S
determined according to the ultimate strength method for reinforced
concrete provided by ACI 318 modified as follows:
a) Reinforced Concrete
Reinforcing steel - strength for the design stresses of those
structural elements subject to blast loads shall be the yield strength
of the applied steel bars and the failure stress of the concrete.
b} Minimum Conerete Strength
Unless otherwise specified reinforced structural concrete shall have
a minimum characteristic compressive cylinder strength of
25Nimm? at 28 days. Reference shall be made to Parts 3 and 7 of
ACI 318 regarding durability of concrete under various exposure
conditions. Blinding concrete shall have a minimum characteristic
strength of 15N/mm? at 28 days.
¢) Maximum Tension Reinforcement
Reinforced concrete members principally resisting bending shall be
“under-reinforced” to remove risk of compression failure under
dynamic loading,
This shall be considered to be met if, after removing any area of
compression steel together with an equal area of tension steel, the
nett section shall have an ultimate resistance moment, based on
steel strength, of not more than half that based on concrete
compression strength,

5.2 al (non-blast) Loadings
Design shall meet the requirements of ACI 318 for the nor-blast load
cases. In general the blast design case shall govern the design, but in
the case of long span roof members, the normal design case may be
more severe particularly as regards to serviceability.
6.0 FOUNDATIONS
6.1 Foundation Design,
Foundations shail be adequate to support the normal loadings at normal 5)
allowable ground bearing capacity.
If piles are required to resist lateral movements of the structure under the
blast loading, raked piles may be used. In determining pile requirements
passive resistance developed on the foundation walls and footing shall be
taken into account.
7.0 EXTERNAL DOORS AND OPENINGS
7A Maximum Area of Unprotected Openings
‘The total area of openings other than those fully protected against blast
load in external walls and root shall not exceed 0.0067 m?/m? of the
internal volume of the building and not more than half of which shall be
in one face.
a
7.2 External Doors
7.24 Doors in external blast resistant walls shall be kept to a minimum. They
shall be fabricated from mild steel and shall open outwards and butt on
all four edges against steel frames cast into the concrete. Care shall be
taken in the selection of door ironmongery to ensure that they can resist
negative blast loadings. The weight of doors and ease of opening shall
be carefully examined particularly for frequently used doors.DESIGN OF BLAST 6960-8300-SP.0004
RESISTANT CONTROL FOSTER WHEELER PAGE: 13
BUILDINGS ENGINEERING STANDARD __ REV: Dt
7.2 ‘The door shall be fabricated from an approved carbon steel and designed
to obtain maximum strength from the materials used whilst being light
enough for normal use. A strong baftle wall shall be provided inside the
building to prevent the door being projected into the building in the event
of an explosion force in excess of the door strength.
73 Service Openings
Pipes, services, etc. shall be through transits fixed to the concrete so as
to resist blast entry.
7A Intakes/Exhausts
The area of these features shall be considered as part of the total area of
openings into the building. They shall be designed to prevent entry of
dobris into personnel areas by location, arrangement, baftles or any other
Where blast protection of these openings is required, blast activated shut
off valves shall be built into the structural opening of air intakes and
exhausts.
75 Viewing Facilities
Normal windows shall not be provided. Viewing facilities of specific
portions of the plant shall be provided by means of closed circuit
television.
8.0 INTERNAL WALLS AND PARTITIONS
The internal partitions in a blast resistant control building shall be
designed to resist a transverse differential pressure of 7kNim? considered
as a static loading. This degree of resistance is considered necessary in
recognition of the maximum unprotected area of external walls allowed in
Clause 7.1 of this Standard.
Where all openings in external walls are fully protected against blast
loadings then differential pressures on internal partitions may be ignored
Partition supports shall be constructed of ductile materials.
Partition coverings shall be adequately fixed to their supports

PAGE: 14 FOSTER WHEELER RESISTANT CONTROL
REV: D1 ENGINEERING STANDARD BUILDINGS
The design of the partitions shall recognise the movement of the main
structure in the event of a blast.
In a shear wall structure this will mainly consist of modest deflections of
wall and roof panels between supports. Racking deflections are
restrained by shear wall action and will be insignificant in terms of
partition design.
In particular design a review of main structure movements at partition
points shall be carried out and the partition system devised in the light of
the expected movements. These may include the use of sliding
telescopic joints, crushable panels etc. Partitions shall be able to
accommodate the vertical deformation of the roof whilst resisting the
specified design pressure.
9.0 BUILDING FINISHES
Building finishes shall be in accordance with Project Standard 6960
8300-SP.0018,
This Standard specifies the use of reinforced concrete for the whole of
the structural envelope of the building. The concrete finish shall be
specified to give an acceptable appearance without additional cladding
such as brickwork, tiles or any other potential missile producing
materials. Features such as parapets, copings, rainwater down pipes,
shall either be minimised or avoided altogether. Where necessary they
shall be formed integral with the reinforced concrete,
Wall tiles, where used internally, shall be fixed to the wall with epoxy tile
adhesive to prevent them coming loose in the event of an explosion,
All surface finishing materials shall be fire resistant or non-combustible
and shall not contain loose fibres. All surfaces, including those under
suspended floors or above suspended ceilings shall be sealed to prevent
formation of dust.
10.0 FIXING OF EQUIPMENT TO WALLS ROOF AND FLOOR
in the event of an explosion maximum acceleration of panels and beams
will be experienced mid way between supports. Sensitive equipment
shall not be attached to external walls or roof, Any equipment fixed to
walls or roof should be attached adjacent to support points and the
strength of fixings shall be made adequate in view of the likely
accelerations.WwW
