| T5002 Facility Siting and Building Design for Explosion Protection | ||||||
| Overview | The siting and design of buildings continues to be a critical aspect in providing a safe workplace. A decade ago, the focus was on explosion risks to central control buildings. Incidents in the last few years both in the process industries and on the security front have highlighted the importance of applying these concepts to all occupied structures. New design tools provide greater analysis options and allow for more cost-effective blast resistant designs. Facility siting analyses and design of mitigative explosion protection should be based on process and site specifics in order to ensure a relevant and effective solution. | |||||
