	abstract = {Little details on how to address the design or retrofitting of wood structures subjected to a blast threat are available. Wood structures may be exposed to such loading due to their proximity to an intended target or they may be subjected to an accidental explosion. This paper presents an overview of the current information available on the behaviour of light-frame wood structures subjected to blast loading. A scaled P-I diagram was developed and used to predict damage to light-frame wood stud walls. The ductility ratios provided by the blast code were verified using experimental data. The comparison showed good agreement with the observed levels from experimental work in the superficial and moderate damage region. More work is currently underway to better establish the behaviour in the heavy to blowout ranges.},
