Numerical simulations for structures using advanced material models have become more systematic and reliable in recent times. This is more important for loadings resulting from explosion as it is extremely difficult to carry out real-scale field tests. Considering all the hardware capabilities of modern computers, the computation time for the analysis of structures under the blast load can be reduced significantly. In the present study, an effort is made to perform the numerical simulation of reinforced concrete slab under blast load to determine the dynamic response of reinforced concrete slab considering four different material models. The analysis is carried out with the focus on the study of the effectiveness of mesh size and material model on central point displacement. Finally, recommendations are suggested about the use of the available material models on the behavior of concrete under such extreme loadings.
