Contents include: Introduction, Theoretical Aspects of Experiment Design,Procedure, Results, Discussion, Conclusions and Recommendations, Appendix A Nomenclature; Appendix B. Incline…d-Foundation Bearing Capacity, Appendix C, Computation of kd, Appendix D Pressure Records; Appendix E Field Instrumentation for Response Measurements of Dome-Type Structures under High-Strength Shock Loading and References. Numerous Tables and Figures. A total of ten structures were used. Analysis of the loading data failed to disclose any reflected-pressure effects on the structures. Enough loading information was obtained on the nonresponding structures at the 70-psi region to permit the computation of pressure coefficients as a function of time on these structures. The dome-response measurements obtained on the tests generally confirmed the theory which was used for the design of the domes. Defense Technical Information Center reprint 2001.
