Title:
BLAST AND ANTI-RAMMING WALLS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004092543
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A prefabricated modular blast and/or anti-ram barrier wall has two components, a surface mounted wall panel, and above and below ground posts that support it. The wall panels are strung together and connected to posts, which provide their supporting foundation. The posts and panel cavities are filled with high-strength concrete to provide added mass and ballistic resistance. Erection of the posts involves auguring holes for the posts, dropping them in, then backfilling; backfill may be with native material or soil matching grout. Posts may also be attached to existing above or below ground structures for their support. The panels may be dropped into place either through a prefabricated keyway in the post or in front of the post of the post to be connected through a series of front and back connection plates welded at the site. Along the wall, hydraulic or motor operated panels may be moved vertically or horizontally to provide access or access denial through points of egress.
