Popis: A brief summary is made of structural damage suffered at New York World Trade Center complex due to explosion in February, 1993. A review is then made of the literature on the blasting action of explosives and on the large plastic response of beams to blast-type loading. Finally, discussion is made of the estimation for the amount of the explosive, of the mode of fracture for the damaged members, and of some lessons learned from the disaster.
