Explosion protection

Structural control with blast-protective curtain wall system.

Explosion protection is meant to protect buildings and other civil engineering objects against internal and external explosions. It was widely believed[1] until recently that a building subject to an explosive attack had a chance to remain standing only if it possessed some extraordinary resistive capacity. This belief rested on the assumption that the blast load was fully beyond our control.
