The objective of the study was to investigate and verify model-to-prototype scaling relations for blast loaded buried arches that respond both elastically and inelastically. Four geometrically similar, semicircular aluminum alloy arches with 4-, 8-, 12-, and 36-inch diameters were buried in dense dry sand and subjected to air-blast-induced loads on the surface. The tests were conducted at the Large Blast Load Generator located at the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. The results of two series of tests, each consisting of 3 repeated shots, ranging from 70 to 300 psi, are presented. Within the range of parameters investigated, the scaling of the dependent variables were adequately verified. These variables included acceleration, velocity, displacement, thrust, and bending moment. (Author).
