    3) Concrete Columns

Blast Protection of Critical Infrastructure

FasRaP will be able to effectively protect the occupants in critical infrastructure and increase the resistance of fragile components in the instance of a bomb attack on the building. FasRaP can be applied on pre-cast panels to increase strength while keeping thickness at a minimum, applied to strengthen the joints of pre-cast panels and to critical concrete columns.

Blast Mitigation

A blast test was concluded without any deformation to the FasRaP FRP on the front and back of the brick wall.

Brick wall (1,800mm X 2,400mm) reinforced with 6 layers of FasRaP and 500mm overlay at both top and bottom was subjected to 2000 kPa blast load. This was done with 20 kg of TNT charge equivalent at a standoff distance of 4.5 m between the wall and charge.
