Blast Resistant Modular Buildings

What is a Blast Resistant Modular Building?

CID Buildings is an engineered-to-order manufacturing company with the technology and experience to complete turnkey Blast-Resistant buildings and Blast Proof buildings. CID’s blast-resistant & blast proof modular buildings are able to withstand the concussive forces of blasts from explosions, extreme heat, flame, and smoke created by fires as well as excessive noise levels. This allows complete equipment protection and ensures worker safety.

What Are The Regulations Covering Blast Resistant Buildings?

The CID/Proto-type liftable building has outstanding capabilities which include GSA high and low blast requirements, DOD Charge weight I and II, and with advanced design and increased ceramic panel thicknesses, Personal-Born Improvised Explosive Device (PBIED), and Vehicle Born Improvised Explosive Device (VBIED) can be deterred. 

As a leading blast proof buildings manufacturer, we have the ability to incorporate ceramic panel performance can be enhanced with aggregate strike face inclusions. The strike face improves capabilities and defends against NIJ 0108-01, UL 752, Stanag 4569, and EN 1063 various threat levels. Custom thicknesses to defend special threats are available upon request. 

The CID/Proto-type liftable building is capable of withstanding Kinetic Energy Threats (KE) and the associated high speed fragmentation threats that are generated by Fragment Simulating Projectiles (FSP) and IED's CID's Proto-type liftable building structures can be fully assembled and operational with electronic equipment installed. CID's Mirawal® interior board finish is a two-fold intrinsically safe spall layer made to capture fragmentation from ballistic or blast occurrences. It also provides interior fire-rated capabilities to protect against any flammable emergency.

CID Buildings, leading blast resistant modular buildings manufacturer, applies specific engineering requirements to these blast resistant modular buildings. Throughout the building to ensure that these blast proof buildings will withstand specified blast criteria.

  • The enclosure to be constructed in unitized form and shall be fully welded, utilizing tubular steel products.
  • Unit will have crane lifting lugs fully welded at reinforced vertical members.
  • The door openings to have a vertical subframe of 4" tubular steel to prevent deflection, displacement, and twisting of the steel doors and frames.
  • Wall system to be utilized within the 4" tubular steel panel superstructure to be CID wall panel.
  • Exterior wall panels to be carbon steel plate with continuous weld seams and VOC compliant alkyd industrial enamel finish.
  • The 4" wall system to incorporate mineral fiber acoustical insulating blanket.
  • This insulation will serve as a thermal barrier, dust barrier, and sound deadener.
  • The interior porcelain enamel finish steel hard wall panels are extremely rugged, nonchalking, corrosion resistant, and maintenance free.

#2 LOAD BEARING ROOF

  • The unitized tubular steel framework is designed for and will accommodate recessed structural steel channels inside the lifting crown framework.
  • A 10 gauge carbon steel load bearing roof shall be placed and fully seam welded (continuous) at panel junctures and at the structure periphery.
  • The completed roof material system shall be fully load bearing to meet owner specification.
  • The completed roof system is weather and water tight.

#3 FLOOR FRAMING, FINISHED FLOOR, DOORS, FRAMES, & ACOUSTICS

  • Floor framing materials to consist of tubular steel perimeter base members and structural steel C-channels, located to support exterior undercover as well as the finished floor system.
  • Steel C-channels are to be welded to the unit superstructure tubular steel base.
  • Finished subfloor of the structure to be steel plate.
  • Area between the interior and exterior floors to have mineral fiber insulating material, securely fastened to the understructure of the finished floor system.
  • The fire resistant, mildew proof insulation is inert and will provide both sound and thermal protections.
  • Exterior doors to be supplied with the enclosure at the entry locations.

#4 PAINTING
