Abstract

Blast resistant shelters and structural designs therefor according to which the structural designs include anchoring systems and manufacturing of the anchoring system. The anchoring systems include at least one bracket with a spiral winding and opposing first and second end portions. The first end portion includes two holes, and the second end portion includes two holes. The spiral winding is disposed between the first end portion and the second end portion.

• E04H 13/00 - MonumentsTombsBurial vaultsColumbaria
• B21C 47/08 - Winding-up or coiling without making use of a reel or drum, the first turn being formed by a stationary guide
• E04B 1/38 - Connections for building structures in general
• E04H 9/04 - Buildings, groups of buildings or shelters adapted to withstand or provide protection against abnormal external influences, e.g. war-like action, earthquake or extreme climate against air-raid or other war-like actions
• E04B 1/32 - Arched structuresVaulted structuresFolded structures
• E04B 1/342 - Structures covering a large free area, whether open-sided or not, e.g. hangars, halls

Abstract

A method and apparatus according to which a blast resistant shelter is assembled. The blast resistant shelter includes first and second structural members, a third structural member coupled to the first and second structural members, a first airway adjacent the third structural member, and a first blast panel pivotably mounted to the third structural member and adapted to pivot thereabout in response to a blast wave. In a first configuration, the first blast panel is detachably connected to a first portion of the blast resistant shelter and prevented from pivoting about the third structural member so that the first blast panel obstructs air flow through the first airway. In a second configuration, in response to the blast wave, the first blast panel is detached from the first portion of the blast resistant shelter and permitted to pivot about the third structural member to permit air flow through the first airway.

• E04B 1/344 - Structures characterised by movable, separable, or collapsible parts, e.g. for transport with hinged parts
• E04H 9/10 - Independent sheltersArrangement of independent splinter-proof walls
• E04B 1/98 - Protection against other undesired influences or dangers against vibrations or shocksProtection against other undesired influences or dangers against mechanical destruction, e.g. by air-raids
• E04H 9/04 - Buildings, groups of buildings or shelters adapted to withstand or provide protection against abnormal external influences, e.g. war-like action, earthquake or extreme climate against air-raid or other war-like actions
• E04B 1/19 - Three-dimensional framework structures
• E04B 1/24 - Structures comprising elongated load-supporting parts, e.g. columns, girders, skeletons the supporting parts consisting of metal
