Abstract
Aim of this paper is to compute both the fragility curves of a typical precast concrete claddingwall subjected to blast loads, and the failure probability of the cladding wall, considering a detonation of explosives placed on an automotive vehicle.To this aim, and taking into account corroborated literature, non-linear dynamic analyses are carried out by the widely adopted equivalent non-linear SDOF method. The fragility curves and the failure probability of the precast concrete cladding wall are computed using Monte Carlo simulations. © 2013 Taylor & Francis Group, London.
