Initial guidance in the field of protective structures design was provided in 1969 with the publication of the Tri-Service Design Manual Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions (TM 5-1300), NAFVAC P-397, AFM 88-22). The manual presents procedures for determining the blast effects resulting from an explosion and techniques for the design of reinforced concrete structures subjected to blast loads. A considerable amount of data, much of it not covered in the current manual, has been accumulated since its publication. This information has brought about the urgent requirement for revising the manual. This paper briefly describes the topics in the manual that will be revised, those that will be added, the format of the new manual, and the various committees set up to oversee the revision.

Procedures for structures designed to resist the effects of HE type explosions are presently available in the Tri-Service Design Manual Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions (TM 5-1300, NAVFAC P-397, AFM 88- 22). However, these procedures are limited to reinforced concrete structures. Since its original publication, a considerable amount of data has been generated which brought about the requirement to revise existing procedures in the manual and incorporate new data. This describes the differences between the old and new manual and discusses the additional data incorporated in the new manual.

Procedures for structures designed to resist the effects of HE type explosions are presently available in the Tri-Service Design Manual Structures to Resist the Effects of Accidental Explosions. However, these procedures are limited to reinforced concrete structures. Since its original publication, a considerable amount of data has been generated which brought about the requirement to revise existing procedures in the manual and incorporate new data. This paper describes the format of the revised manual and provides a discussion on the contents of each of the six volumes, including the improvements made to the existing manual. (Author).

This report serves as an introductory manual to previously published reports which present methods of design for protective construction used in facilities for development, testing, production, maintenance, modification, inspection, disposal and storage of explosive materials. This volume contains the safety factor and accuracy to be used with the various design procedures presented in the manual. Also presented is the qualitative description of an explosion projection system, acceptor system tolerance, and the basis for structural design.
