Abstract

There is no method to delineate the safety line to the impact due to fall of ceilings, therefore it is difficult to judge if installed ceilings are dangerous. Authors have done drop tests using various materials for ceilings except for plaster boards because of its fine particles to establish the safety criteria of nonstructural components in large enclosures using human tolerance index. In this paper, drop tests via plaster boards from 1~16m height were reported. [This abstract is not included in the PDF]
