Introduction:

This course will use a better understanding of weapons susceptibility and effects to enhance explosives and munitions risk management. The contemporary management of explosives and munitions hazards is a wide topic addressed by several policy texts and communities of interest. This course is based on best practices as well as fundamental technical and scientific knowledge. The event will bring together participants from the Hazard Classification (HC), Insensitive Munitions (IM), and explosives storage safety communities to help build a coordinated and optimal strategy to controlling explosives and munitions risk. A secondary goal of the workshop is to begin changes that will aid in realizing the benefits of IM, particularly during transit and storage, in order to increase safety and protect military capabilities in hazardous working situations.

Conference Objectives:

  • Develop knowledge and awareness of the explosive impacts on buildings utilized for ammunition storage.
  • Understand the Hazard Division protection provided by buildings.
  • Learn about the various types of structures and the architectural concerns for ammo storage facilities.
  • Learning the calculations for both safe storage and the volume necessary for bulk munitions storage.
  • Demonstrate knowledge and awareness of the phUnderstanding the implementation of fire safety regulations in ammunition storage facilities.
  • Learning the typical markings used for both Ammunition Packag- ing and loose unpackaged ammunition including Lotting and Batching markings to assist in the identification, accounting, security and safe storage of ammunition.
  • Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the various methods of transporting ammunition safely and securely to accepted international standards.
  • ysical security and protection of an explosive storage facility's ammunition stockpile.
