Hydrogen explosion tests were conducted to grasp nonlinear response and to get its fundamental data for reinforced concrete walls subjected to hydrogen explosive load. In the tests, an explosive source (37m^3 -volume) that contained 30% hydrogen and 70% air was detonated, and the responses of the walls close to the source were measured. Two preliminary and three main tests were conducted for a variety of wall types with different thickness, heights, and steel reinforcements. The walls were instrumented with pressure sensors, displacement sensors, strain gauges, accelerometers and thermocouple. Wide varieties of experimental data were obtained in damage ranging from elasticity to complete failure. It was also confirmed that the wall nonlinear response depends on the blast wave duration and initial natural period. With increasing the initial natural period, the higher vibration modes were appeared on the response of the walls. Furthermore effects of strain rate were quantitatively investigated on the basis of the test results.
