Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Engineering - Department of Civil Engineering Summary: Blast loading due to vapor cloud explosions is a common case of loading in the design of petrochemical structures. Most blast design codes allow the use of simplified single degree of freedom (SDOF) analyses to design structures subjected to blast loading. However, using SDOF simplification is always accompanied with overly conservative assumptions. Thus, performing advanced three-dimensional structural analysis can lead to reduction in the straining actions and deflections resulting from the analysis. In this study, the effect of using three dimensional Applied Element analyses for walls subject to blast loading was highlighted using the software (ELS). The program was verified by comparing the results to results from experimental testing. Also an applied element model was developed for a building was designed to resist blast loading using the SDOF method. The AEM results show noticeable reduction in walls deflection and rotation, and a cost saving in wall materials was achieved
