Concrete structures of spent nuclear fuel interim storage facility should maintain their shielding ability and structural integrity during normal, off-normal and accident conditions. The concrete structures may deteriorate if the interim storage facility operates for more than several decades. Even if deterioration occurs, the concrete structures must maintain its unique functions (shielding and structural integrity). Therefore, it is necessary to establish an analysis methodology that can evaluate whether the deteriorated concrete structure maintains its integrity under not only normal or off-normal condition but also accident condition. In accident conditions such as tip over and aircraft collision, both static material properties and dynamic properties of the concrete are required to evaluate the structural integrity of the concrete structures. Unlike the calculated damage results for the static deformation of the concrete structure, it is very difficult to accurately estimate the damage values of the degraded concrete structures where an aircraft collides at a high strain rate. Therefore, the present authors have a plan to establish a database of the dynamic material properties of deteriorated concrete and implement to a Finite Element Analysis model. Prior to that, dynamic increase factors described in a few technical specifications were investigated. The dynamic increase factor represents the ratio of the dynamic to static strength and is normally reported as function of strain rate. In ACI-349, only the strain rate is used as a variable in the empirical formula obtained from the test results of specified concrete strengths of 28 to 42 MPa. The maximum value of dynamic increase factor is limited to 1.25 in the axial direction and 1.10 in the shear direction. On the other hand, in the case of the CEB model, static strength is included as variables in addition to the strain rate, and a constitutive equation in which the slope changes from the strain rate of 30 /s is proposed. As plotting the two dynamic increase factor models, in the case of ACI, it is drawn as a single line, but in the case of CEB, it is plotted as multiple lines depending on the static strength. The test methods and specimen sizes of the previously performed tests, which measured the concrete dynamic properties, were also investigated. When the strain rate is less than 10 /s, hydraulic or drop hammer machines were generally used and the length of the specimens was more than twice the diameter in most cases. However, in the case of Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar tests, the small size specimens are preferred to minimize the inertia effect, so the specimens were small and the length was less than twice the diameter. We will construct the dynamic properties DB with our planned deteriorate concrete specimen test, and also include the dynamic property data already built in the previous studies.
