You can prepare for a facility siting study by first learning what a facility siting study is, and then preparing a list of questions and ensuring you have all the required documentation ready to be handed over.

Pre-engineered buildings are suite-quality buildings with completed engineering.

While people seem to use the terms blast-proof and explosion-proof synonymously, there is a difference. Simply put, we don’t say blast-proof or explosion-proof because we know that explosions are powerful forces. A building might fail if it exceeds the load that it is designed to resist.

A blast-resistant building is a structure that is made to withstand significant explosions and to protect personnel and equipment in hazardous environments like those encountered at oil refineries, chemical processing plants, or similar operations.

At RedGuard, we believe in testing. We know that the most critical element of the blast-resistant building is its ability to protect lives. For this reason, when it comes to testing, we don’t just test the building - we also place a crash test dummy inside to ensure the safety of occupants.

Unfortunately, there are no official regulations that cover blast-resistant modular buildings, but there are two recommended practices that cover blast-resistant buildings - API RP 752 and API RP 753.
