| SPEAKER |
 Nabil A. Rahman, Ph.D., P.E. is the Director of Engineering and R&D at Applied Science International (ASI), and its parent company, The Steel Network, Inc (TSN). He also serves as an Adjunct Associate Professor at the Civil Engineering Department of North Carolina State University. He has vast experience in the development of engineering software, as well as the design and analysis of structures against extreme loads (progressive collapse, blast, Impact and hurricanes). Dr. Rahman has participated in several vulnerability, blast and progressive collapse assessments of commercial and military buildings, and has several publications from this work. He led the development of “SteelSmart® System” engineering software for ASI, and advised on the development of the “Extreme Loading® for Structures” software. Dr. Rahman has given numerous continuing education seminars on Progressive Collapse Design and the Design of Cold Formed Steel Framing Systems to engineering associations around the US and to engineers from around the world. He is currently serving as a member of the Committee on Specification and Committee on Framing of the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI), the Vice-Chairman of the Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute (CFSEI) and a member of ASCE Committee on Cold-Formed Steel. |

| OVERVIEW: |
This presentation introduces the concepts and methods of analysis and design of cold-formed steel structures against blast and progressive collapse. The presentation focuses on the design requirements for cold-formed steel mid-rise construction and curtain wall framing in the Department of Defense projects per the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 4-010-01 and 4-023-03. The under-development ASCE Standard for Blast Protection of Buildings will be also discussed. A case study with computer analysis and design calculations will be presented. |

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
-
Understand main concepts of structural design to mitigate the effects of blast and progressive collapse on buildings.
-
Identify which buildings (based on height and occupancy category) would qualify for progressive collapse design per DoD requirements.
-
Identify which components of building exterior framing qualify for blast design per DoD requirements.
-
Select proper analysis methods and software tools to perform blast and progressive collapse design.
