Handbook for Blast Resistant Design of Buildings
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
A comprehensive professional guide edited by Donald O. Dusenberry. It details the multidisciplinary strategies required to protect structures from explosive events, emphasizing a security design team approach that integrates architecture, engineering, and risk assessment. The source outlines a six-step risk management model used to identify threats, evaluate asset values, and determine a Design Basis Threat (DBT). It also provides a historical context of terrorist attacks to illustrate how past tactics inform modern safety standards for both government and private-sector facilities. Ultimately, the text serves as a technical framework for hardening building systems, establishing defensive perimeters, and ensuring the survability of structural components against high-impulse loads.
