What is blast mitigation?
Blast mitigation is the engineered use of protective materials and systems to reduce the damage an explosion causes to a structure and the people inside it. The goal is to absorb energy, hold the structure together, and stop fragments from becoming secondary hazards.
In the UAE, blast mitigation is specified on government buildings, embassies, oil & gas facilities, data centres and transport infrastructure — assets where a single incident must not lead to progressive collapse or mass casualties.
