      Primarily, it is Structural Engineering from an dynamic point of view. We protect structures and people from accidental, and malicious explosions, fires and gas releases. Assessments look at the dynamic loading from the blast itself, and the potential damage to structures from this, and then recommend mitigation to protect.
