Blast Resistant Offices

Blast Resistant Portable Accommodation where design approval for the structure of the unit has been designed and manufactured to meet the blast resistance criteria under the following conditions:

  • Walls - Reflected overpressure of 650 mbar for a positive phase duration on 100msec
  • Roof – The roof for the 650mbar module (reflected on the front face) would need to be able to resist the 320mbar pressure (side on or overpressure) for the duration of 100msec
  • Floor– Reflected overpressure of 650mbar for a positive phase duration of 100msec
  • Windows - Reflected overpressure of 650mbar for a positive phase duration of 100msec
  • Door - Reflected overpressure of 650mbar for a positive phase duration of 100msec
  • Door has been classified as Category 1

All Blast loadings assumed to be of a shock wave form i.e instantaneously rising at time t=0 to the maximum overpressure and decaying linearly to zero mbar at t=100msec.
