What is BlastCubicle?

BlastCubicle is a modular steel structure made of light gauge steel components. It is designed to protect personnel and equipment from short stand-off blasts and scattered small arms fire. Guard houses, equipment huts, living quarters or maintenance facilities are some uses for which Blast Cubicle is designed; however, it can be utilized in most any situation where military threats or terrorist activities are likely.

BlastCubicle has its origins in sister company Remagen Safe Rooms’ Closet Vaults and Storm Closets. These storm closets were designed to provide protection from the effects of hurricanes and tornadoes. Safe rooms have been in use for many years and have under gone extensive testing - proving their ability to provide a safe haven in 250 mph winds.

BlastCubicle builds upon the basic design of Closet Vault and Storm Closet by putting sand or granular earth fill in the walls. The addition of sand into the walls increases the dampening factor and produces internal mass resistance to blast-induced accelerations. The use of visco-elastic structural adhesive between the exterior and interior skins of the composite blast wall creates a ductile wall that has outstanding dynamic response characteristics, thus improving the structural performance of the blast walls. Blast Cubicle has been subjected to a blast of 50 lbs of TNT at 20 ft and did not suffer any significant damage.
