This Part gives the description of the design philisophy in case of accidental design situations in general and covers the accidental actions due to impact and explosions in detail. It refers to exceptional conditions applicable to the structure caused by human activities, e.g. fire, explosion or impact; actions arising from war-fare and sabotage are excluded. Accidental actions arising from the natural environment such as tornadoes, extreme erosion or falling rocks are not included. However, they may be incor- porated in design using principles similar to those contained in this part.
