Overview
The concern of potential blast threats towards buildings has highlighted a need to improve preparedness and prevention to ensure that building threats do not lead to disasters. CSA S850 standardizes the design and assessment of buildings subjected to blast loads, helping achieve appropriate levels of building safety. While the main objective is to reduce human casualties and damage to assets due to an air blast, the uniform approach provided by S850 can also lead to more cost-effective design and assessment of buildings against blast loads.
