Abstract

The article proposes the concept of experimental dynamic tests of aggregate behavior - sand used as a material for covering temporary protective shelters for the population and civil defense. These shelters are part of the construction shielding infrastructure useful in crisis situations. Laboratory tests of loose soil, including sand, with impact loads, are based on the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar using a clamp. The work describes both this experimental method and the original laboratory stand for impact tests based on a pneumatic launcher with a projectile - bar. This position was built at the Institute of Civil Engineering of the Military University of Technology taking into account the requirements of generally applicable legal provisions. Examples of preliminary experimental research on the behavior of selected aggregate - dry sand under dynamic load - are presented.
