Some design examples are presented to illustrate the applicability of the tentative AIJ guideline to a selection of buildings. Two buildings, a reinforced concrete and a steel frame building structure, located at the corner of a crossroads were selected. Two accident scenarios are considered: road vehicle crashes caused by automobiles and dump trucks and internal gas explosion. Application examples of road vehicle crashes at the first floor of the selected buildings and internal gas explosion are shown in this paper. As an example of non-structural member, this study also presents information on glass velocity and dispersion when loaded by an internal gas explosion.
