Summary of Guide4.1 This guide takes into account two major factors, opera-tional and explosive effects considerations, that need to beconsidered when deploying blast resistant trash receptacles.4

30、.2 The guide provides a list of factors to be considered indeveloping a threat assessment evaluating the basis of thedeployment. For purposes of this standard, a major reason forconducting the threat assessment is to estimate the forceprotections required of the blast resistant trash receptaclesbein

31、g considered for deployment throughout the facility orvenue.4.3 Guidance for deployment is given in the form ofdirectives indicating where it is recommended or not recom-mended for generally placing the blast resistant trash recep-tacles at both exterior and interior locations of the facility orvenu

32、e. This guidance addresses both operational consider-ations and explosive effects considerations.4.3.1 Operational considerations pertain to those factors thatimpact the use of blast resistant trash receptacles with regard tothe collection and removal of trash from the facility or venueand factors r

34、o mitigating the effects of an explosionoccurring as a result of an explosive device placed in thereceptacle.5. Significance and Use5.1 This standard is intended to provide guidance on thedeployment of blast resistant trash receptacles that focuses onthe mitigation of human injury. It is not in gene

35、ral intended toprovide guidance on the protection of structures in the vicinityof where the blast resistant trash receptacles are deployed.5.2 The importance of a strategy and procedures for thedeployment of blast resistant trash receptacles in crowdedplaces cannot be overly emphasized. Trash recept

36、acles incrowded places have been, and continue to be, an attractiverepository for explosives. The selection of deployment loca-tions impacts both the mitigation of the effects of an explosionoccurring within one as well as the convenience of using thereceptacles.5.3 Two major effects resulting from

37、an explosion in a trashreceptacle are the production of primary and secondary frag-ments as well as overpressure from the detonation. Therecommendations in this guide are intended to mitigate thedamaging effects of fragmentation and overpressure incrowded places.5.4 Another effect resulting from an

38、explosion in a trashreceptacle is the fireball. This effect may cause burns to peoplecaught within or near to the fireball. Also, it is possible that theheat output from an explosion may cause nearby combustiblematerial to ignite. It is important, therefore, that blast resistanttrash receptacles are

39、 not placed near combustible materials.5.5 The deployment of blast resistant trash receptaclesprovides a means for decreasing injury and lethality during anexplosive event no matter their location when compared to theprotection afforded by ordinary trash receptacles or clearplastic bags. Fragments r

40、esulting from explosions create thegreatest danger to people as fragments may travel severalhundred meters and still have velocities that could be lethal orinjurious. Blast resistant trash receptacles that meet the require-ments of Specification E2740 when subjected to internalexplosions equal to or

41、 less than the force protection ratingcontain horizontal primary fragments and do not producesecondary fragments.5.6 This guide provides general provisions for the deploy-ment of blast resistant trash receptacles. Every facility or venuehas unique features associated with factors such asdemographics

42、, location, and functions. Operational and explo-sive effects considerations (see Section 7) provide basicrecommendations that may be sufficient for many facilitiesbuildings and venues, but may not be specifically applicable toothers. For example, special security concerns at high valuefacilities or

43、 high pedestrian count venues will require guidanceconcerning the deployment of blast resistant trash receptaclesfrom security personnel familiar with that facility.5.7 The guide is intended for use by individuals in both theprivate and public sectors who are considering the purchaseand deployment o

44、f blast resistance trash receptacles.6. Threat Assessment Considerations6.1 Facilities and venues that do not have a security threatassessment should develop one when considering the deploy-ment of blast resistance trash receptacles.6.2 Facility and Venue Threat Assessment ConsiderationsThe facility

45、 and venue threat assessment provides the forceprotections desired at various deployment locations. The threatassessment should include a site survey of the facility or venue.The survey team should include all stakeholders of the facility,security personnel, and the first responder community thatwou

46、ld come to the facility for emergencies. This site surveyshould consider, at a minimum, the following:6.2.1 Crowded places.6.2.2 Access and egress points for pedestrians.6.2.3 Pedestrian bottlenecks.6.2.4 Walkways and related areas.6.2.5 Security checkpoints.6.2.6 Locations of critical structural el

47、ements such ascolumns, beams, and load-bearing walls.6.2.7 Locations where combustible, flammable, and toxicmaterials are located.6.2.8 Enclosed spaces such as alcoves and passageways.6.2.9 Exterior of the facility or venue.6.2.10 Parking areas and parking structures.6.2.11 LandscapingLandscaping is

48、 important because itcan provide locations for possible concealment of explosives.6.2.12 Materials used in, and methods of, construction forcomponents such as walls, ceilings, floors, platforms, stair-ways.6.2.13 Ceiling heights.6.2.14 Doors, Windows and SkylightsLocation, type ofstructural surround
