| Abstract: | ▪ The test apparatus accelerates projectiles horizontally against a vertical wall or a
force-measurement plate as shown in Figure 1 (Lastunen et al. 2007). ▪ Projectiles can be deformable or rigid and geometry is free. They can be filled with liquid or light-weight concrete. ▪ Concrete wall can be reinforced and pre-stressed and different types of shear reinforcements can be used. |
