Built infrastructure is often the target of terrorist bombing attacks. Technology for alternative blast testing methods is being developed at the JRC, where the effects of bombs on structural members would be generated without the use of explosives. New fast hydraulic actuators have been designed for this purpose and a prototype already manufactured. The principle of its functioning, the mechanical components and the technical requirements of the testing setup are presented in this report. A risk analysis of the experimentation has also been conducted and the necessary safety measures taken are described.
