Application of Recyclable Materials for an Increase in Building Safety against the Explosion of an Improvised Explosive Device

With the increase of terrorist attacks it is necessary to explore the option of increasing the strength of structures against the blast wave resulted from explosion of an improvised explosive device. In our research we have focused on recyclable materials that could provide such protection and their comparison with other known materials. We present a FEM analysis of a wall strengthened with different type of materials. In conclusion we show the economical and ecological comparison of used materials.
