    A series of tests was run to determine the effectiveness of earthen bar-* ricades in reducing fragment hazards from the detonation of collocated stores

    of ammnunition. Each test used three M106 8 inch artillery projectiles, deto-nated simltaneously, as the fragmentation source. The 8 inch projectile waschosen, as it represents essentially a worst case fragment hazard. Simultaneousdetonation of a linear array of projectiles in contact (at the rotating bandcovers) creates an exceptionally severe fragment spray - much more severe

  • I. INTRODUCTION

    New construction of military facilities is subject to Department ofDefense Explosive Safety Board review and must comply with the intent of DOD

    Standard 5154.4s, which specifies explosive safety quantity-distance stand-ard. Failure to generate solutions which comply with these criteria willeither delay or prevent the construction of needed facilities. The currentcriteria which form the limits of the quantity-distance criteria are: (1) ablast overpressure not to exceed a specified peak pressure (1 psi for in-habited buildings, 2.3 psi for R&D facilities involving explosive operations),and (2) hazardous fragments (defined as having 58 ft-lb (78.6 J) or moreenergy not to exceed a density of more than one per 600 sq ft (55.7 squaremeters). The arcs associated with these criteria are not intended to provideabsolute safety, but are intended to provide an acceptably low level of riskto personnel and material.

    The construction of facilities to house explosives operations can followdifferent design philosophies. One approach involves using sufficiently ro-bust construction that, in the event of an explosion, the structure Will sur-vive the blast loading, will prevent excessive blast overpressures external tothe building, and will prevent escape of hazardous fragments. If no other .alternative is possible, this is an excellent way to go. However, for signif-icant amounts of explosive, the material and structural requirements can be-come prohibitively high in cost. Under these circumstances, a feasible ap-proach is to design the buildings without the constraint that the buildingssurvive the blast loading. Explosive safety criteria can still be met if thebuilding prevents the escape of hazardous primary fragments, if the building,in the collapse process, does not itself become a source of secondary haz-ardous fragments, and if the blast overpressures are not excessive. Thislatter approach offers the significant advantage that it is generally much,much less expensive to construct buildings using this approach than buildingswhich completely contain fragments and blast. However, this approach suffersfrom the fact that engineering guidelines for construction are not readilyavailable.

    For the facilities of interest, the blast criteria could be met bylimiting explosion size. No attempt was made to take advantage of blast

    focussing, and buildings could be made of any economically and functionallyfeasible construction, with the provison that sufficient shielding be providedto prevent escape of an unacceptable number of hazardous fragments. To thisend, a series of tests was conducted to establish an acceptable thickness ofshielding.

    II. SHIELDING TESTS

    Soils such as clays and wet sands are low resistance materials which re-quire several projectile lengths of penetration to exert any strong effectupon the velocity of penetration. Gravels offer slightly more resistance, but

  • the differences are not strong. The trajectories of spherical or chunky frag-

    ments can be predicted with reasonable accuracy using the Ponoelet1 relation

    or the Sandia Laboratory's equations.2 However, fragmenting artillery shellsgenerate a large number of long, sliver-like fragments. These fragments areinherently unstable In penetration, and predictions of required materialthickness for stopping are not currently possible. Our problem is complicatedfurther by the fact that the distribution of fragment masses and velocities isquite broad. This latter rL, ult arises partially from the nature of the frag-mentation process for the individual round and partially from the interactionbetween rounds, which leads to extremely large fragments travelling at veryhigh velocities (velocities of the order of twice the fragment velocities gen-crated by detonation of an individual round). We therefore decided to rely onresults of experimental testing rather than attempt to use theoretical ap-proaches.

    Experiments were conducted using three N106 8 inch artillery shells asthe source of fragmentation. In each test, the three rounds were arrangedcollinearly, with the separation between rounds determined by the rotatingband covers. All three rounds were detonated simultaneously, to insure theworst possible fragmentation hazard. Shield materials were placed 12 ft(3.6 meters) from the centerline of the three rounds, as this distance is com-mensurate with the planned distances from explosive source to walls in theproposed building configurations. A 0.62 inch (1.6 ,) steel witness platewas used in each test to determine the number of fragments (see figures forschematics of test configurations). Results are summarized in Table 1 and areoutlined in Figures 1-10.

    III. DISCUSSION

    As noted earlier, the most hazardous fragments are generated in the

    interaction zones between rounds in contact. Powell, et al, in their studiesof the fragmentation generated by detonation of stacks of ammunition, showedquite clearly that the number of high velocity fragments generated by deto-nation of a stack of ammunition is directly proportional to the number ofinteraction zones. Our tests, involving three 8 inch projectiles in a row,

    faithfully reproduce the worst fragmentation hazards for a single pallet of8 inch projectiles. The fragmentation hazards associated with larger arraysof 8 inch projectiles can easily be inferred by enumerating the interactionzones.

  • Examination of the test data shows that several of the tested shieldconfigurations provide acceptable fragment protection, given that the haz-

    ardous fragment distance can be as large as 170 ft (50 meters) for thefacilities of interest. Thus, it appears that a 2 ft (61.0 cm) thick earthbarrier, with a steel retaining wall as thin as 0.016 inches (0.4 m) thick,will provide adequate fragment protection for simultaneous detonation of three8 inch M106 projectiles. By inference, the same statement can be made for twopallets of 8 inch projectiles, or two pallets of 155 mm projectiles, or forany other munitions array with less severe fragmentation.

    IV. CONCLUSIONS

    We conclude, on the basis of a small series of tests, that relativelyinexpensive and relatively thick earth barriers are adequate to reduce frag-ment hazards resulting from detonation of arrays of large caliber projectiles.
