MISSION STATEMENT
Terrorist attacks against high value structures threaten the lives of those who work and live within the building and inflict extensive and expensive damage to the structure. Blastec blast protection provides a bottom line blast protection defense against an explosive attack.
When all the other protective measures have been circumvented, Blastec gives the final structural blast protection to prevent the progressive and brittle failures that lead to complete collapse.
BLASTEC BLAST PROTECTION
The Blastec blast protection System is a complete analysis, design and installation process that enables structures to withstand the adverse effects of blast loads with blast protection. With each project and application, from high-rise buildings to historical structures, the Blastec blast protection system provides an innovative, cost-effective solution to total building blast protection.
The Blastec blast protection System begins with structural analysis and design. Once an explosive threat has been identified, building owners, occupants, law enforcement agencies and security personnel will want to know how the threatened structures will respond when subjected to adverse explosive loads. Blastec’s blast protection structural engineers have many years of international civilian and military experience gained in the analysis and design of structures subjected to weapons effects.
Many cost-effective building protection measures have little to do with the actual building blast protection, but focus on the space surrounding it. Where it can be achieved, ‘stand-off’ or ‘set-back’ is without doubt the most effective technique to employ, but in urban environments this may be impossible or impracticable to achieve. The Blastec blast protection System offers a range of alternative blast protection mitigation possibilities including temporary self-inflating water walls, permanent permeable blast walls, vehicle anti-ram barriers and blast protection bins.
