Secure design
Secure design is a primary concern in this world of unknown risks, such as natural disasters and terrorism. We provide our clients with practical, technologically advanced solutions for threat protection.
Our wide range of secure design services—which are fully integrated with our structural design capabilities—includes preliminary security planning and site layout, threat and risk assessment and mitigation, and designs resistant to blast, progressive collapse, forced entry, ballistics and ramming.
Our secure design engineers also provide blast load prediction, vehicle ramming threat analysis, glazing and framing, as well as structural component response prediction for elements subjected to blast loading. Single and multiple degree-of-freedom tools and finite element analysis help us determine structural response to complex dynamic loadings.
Walter P Moore’s designs fully incorporate various General Services Administration and Department of Defense design criteria documents, and we actively participate in further developing these documents and design methods for use throughout the industry.
