Abstract
In order to study the damage characteristics of steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs attacked by chloride ion under explosive loading, contact explosion tests were performed for nine pieces of 500 mm × 500 mm × 60 mm slabs. These slabs were divided into three groups based on corrosion time of seawater (uncorroded, corrosion for 10 days, corrosion for 20 days) to achieve different degrees of chloride ion erosion effect. The dynamic response of the steel fiber reinforced concrete slab under contact blast loading were compared and analyzed, and the effects of explosives quality and degree of corrosion were explored. Besides, the propagation characteristics of the stress wave in the slab and the typical damage mode were also studied. The results show that the damage degree of steel fiber reinforced concrete slab has a non-linear increase with the increase of seawater corrosion. Slabs suffer different damage patterns such as cratering and spalling for different qualities of explosives. In addition, based on the experimental results, an empirical formula for predicting the diameter of the blast crater was established.
