Detsafe Saves the Day
In February, a Detsafe 8M was being used by a leading UK training establishment to transport improvised detonators from its workshop to the firing area.
SJH Projects can assist you in undertaking a blast vulnerability study of your building or facility. Using experience in testing of building elements such as glazing and combining this with blast overpressure prediction software, we can help you determine what safe stand-off distances you need to create or what additional blast mitigation measures should be considered.
We have undertaken such studies in the UK and abroad for commercial and Government facilities.
With this information, actions can be recommended to mitigate the threat. These include alterations to limit the proximity of a potential threat to changes to the facade and fabric of the building. There are also procedural changes that can be made to aid prevention and minimise the potential casualties.
The predicted overpressures can be matched to the widely used specification performance levels used by Governments and manufacturers for testing and qualifying their products.
Much of the advice provided by SJH Projects is driven by a focus on business continuity and minimising both actual and reputational damage.
