It shows the complexity of designing and simulating blast action over structures and the development of researches and software at simulation of concrete under explosions. Also several alternatives of protective concrete panels with several reinforcement detailing are analyzed under blast loading to study panels behavior as sacrificial layers or as original structure walls. All results were studied to figure which factors can improve panels behavior to achieve best protection against explosions ER -
