The benchmark IRIS_2010 is an exercise in OECD/NEA/CSNI framework. This exercise concentrates on improving robustness assessment methodologies for structures impacted by missiles. This paper is the 2 nd of a series of 5 companion papers (references [1] through [4]) that present different aspects of the exercise. It concentrates on experimental testing and results of the tests as they were measured. The experimental tests included into the exercise consisted of two tests for bending, three for punching and one for combined punching and bending behavior of reinforced concrete walls under impact loading. The test for combined behavior was performed by Hochtief AG in Meppen, Germany in the 1980’ s, while all the other tests were carried out by VTT Technical research centre of Finland in Espoo, Finland, during the spring of 2010. In the tests performed at VTT, the walls were simply supported at all of their four sides with the span width being 2 m. All the walls were reinforced with bending reinforcement in both horizontal and vertical directions with the horizontal rebars being nearer to the surface of the wall. The walls used in tests for bending behavior were 150 mm thick. All these “ bending” walls included also shear reinforcement. The bending walls (B1 & B2) were tested by impacting a deformable stainless steel missile against them. The mass of the missiles was 50.5 kg and the target value for the impact velocity was 110 m/s. The walls used in tests for punching behavior (P1P3) were 250 mm thick and they did not include shear reinforcement. These “ punching” walls were tested by impacting a nondeformable missile with mass of roughly 47.5 kg against them with the target impact velocity being 135 m/s. Main instrumentation in the tests carried out by VTT consisted of strain gauges placed on the reinforcement rebars as well as on the front surface of the wall, strain gauges on the supports of the mounting frame of the wall to compute the support forces, five sensors for measurement of displacements and high shutter speed video cameras to record the impact. All in all, the tests succeeded quite well with the realized input values being quite close to their target values. It also seems that the tests are fairly repeatable which was one of the objectives set for the tests. The results act as reliable reference data against which predicted results can be compared. In the Meppen test, tagged here as MII4, a 700 mm thick reinforced concrete wall was impacted with a deformable missile with mass of 1016 kg and with the realized impact velocity being 247.7 m/s. Span width of the wall was 5.4 met ers and it was both simply supported at each side and additiona lly tied to the supporting system with tierods. Support forces generated during the impact were measured with multiple load cells and strain gauges on the tierods. Displacements and accelerations were measured at the back surface of the wall and strains were measured from the reinforcement at multiple locations.
