Example PEMB Blast Specification

Ensuring the success of a building project where blast is a hazard of concern is dependent on a complete and accurate set of instructions in the hands of the design team. Typical blast-resistant design specifications include windows, personnel doors, roll-up doors, blast-resistant modular buildings (BRM), louvers, and other non-structural accessories. Clarity on all aspects of the design, at the earliest possible stage in a project, is critical in ensuring risks are mitigated during the project.


A thorough specification includes, but is not limited to, detailed guidance on siting, architectural, & functional considerations, performance qualification and criteria, blast load definition with…
