There is described a profiled sash section for a window sash holding a window pane and intended for being installed in an outer frame of a blast resistant window. The sash section includes a main member enabling inter-engagement between the profiled sash member and the outer frame a window pane holding member for accommodating and securing an end portion of said window pane in the profiled sash member, and a reinforcing member designed to support the end portion of the window pane and to transmit blast pressure, if incidentally applied to the window pane, to the main member. For at least partially absorbing blast pressure energy applied to the window pane, the sash section is provided with damping means for deforming up to predetermined limit. Also described is a blast-resistant framework for a casement window, including the window sash assembled from the mentioned profiled sash sections and adapted for rigidly and air-tightly securing the window pane in the holders of the profiled sash members.

The invention claimed is: 1. A profiled sash section for a window sash, said section holding a sole window pane and intended for being installed in an outer frame of a blast resistant window, said sash section comprising: a main member enabling inter-engagement between the profiled sash section and the outer frame; a window pane holding member for accommodating and securing an end portion of the window pane in said profiled sash section; a reinforcing member to support the end portion of the window pane and to transmit blast pressure, if incidentally applied to the window pane, to the main member; said sash section being characterized in that it includes therewithin damping means which is plastically deformable up to a predetermined limit for at least partially absorbing blast pressure energy applied to the window pane, wherein said damping means is shaped as a metal piece weakened at a particular portion, whereby the damping means is adapted to be deformed or broken by the blast pressure energy to partially absorb this energy. 2. A profiled sash section for a window sash, said section holding a sole window pane and intended for being installed in an outer frame of a blast resistant window, said sash section comprising: a main member enabling inter-engagement between the profiled sash section and the outer frame; a window pane holding member for accommodating and securing an end portion of the window pane in said profiled sash section; a reinforcing member to support the end portion of the window pane and to transmit blast pressure, if incidentally applied to the window pane, to the main member; said sash section being characterized in that it includes therewithin damping means which is plastically deformable up to a predetermined limit for at least partially absorbing blast pressure energy applied to the window pane, wherein the damping means comprises at least one male-female coupling unit in a non-engaged or semi-engaged state; elements of the unit being fully engageable only when the incidental blast pressure energy is applied to the window pane. energy. 3. A profiled sash section for a window sash, including a single window pane, and intended for installation in an outer frame of blast resistant window, comprising: a main member enabling inter-engagement between the profiled sash section and the outer frame; a window pane holding member for accommodating and securing an end portion of said single window pane in said profiled sash section; a reinforcing member constructed to support the end portion of said window pane and to transmit blast pressure, if incidentally applied to the window pane, to the main member; said sash section containing therewithin and as part thereof a damping member capable of and adapted to permanently deform up to a predetermined limit to at least partially absorb blast pressure energy applied directly to an outer surface of said window pane, wherein said damping member comprises a metal strip which is capable of and adapted to permanently bend upon the application of excessive blast pressure energy applied to the window pane. 4. A profiled sash section for a window sash, including a single window pane, and intended for installation in an outer frame of blast resistant window, comprising: a main member enabling inter-engagement between the profiled sash section and the outer frame; a window pane holding member for accommodating and securing an end portion of said single window pane in said profiled sash section; a reinforcing member constructed to support the end portion of said window pane and to transmit blast pressure, if incidentally applied to the window pane, to the main member; said sash section containing therewithin and as part thereof a damping member capable of and adapted to permanently deform up to a predetermined limit to at least partially absorb blast pressure energy applied directly to an outer surface of said window pane, wherein said damping member comprises at least one male coupling element and at least one complimentary female coupling element, said male coupling element and said female coupling element being located in facing relationship in a non-engaged or semi-engaged state, said male coupling element and said female element being fully engageable only when excessive blast pressure energy is applied to the window pane.
