  ABSTRACT: With the increasing threat of terrorism and the rapid development of technology,the probability of accidental explosions such as incident blasts, mine explosions and terrorist attacks hasincreased. So, protecting important structures against terroristic attacks is a very important topic as terrorist attacks have increased and developed a lot these days especially using blast loads. This study is Carried out to coverthehistorical background and extensive literature review of the available previous research works focusing on the blast environment characteristics, fundamentals of blast loading and descriptionofthe methods used to predict blast loadings. Moreover, the research also covers a literature review on the response of structures subjected to blast loads and material behavior considering high strain rates. Hence blast loading effects can be predicted and utilized in improving the design of important structures.
