HexoTech defense department specializes in the following fields in protection of structures and infrastructures:

• Blast and explosion effects on the structures and infrastructures;

• High velocity impacts (airplane crash, accidents, etc.) assessment;

• Fire protection of structures and buildings;

• Risk assessment and risk management of the defense projects.

 

We can assist our clients with our expertise to accomplish your projects. We can get involved as much as the clients want us to, taking the responsibility and liability of the engineering design/assessments. For more information please contact us now.​ 

We have a robust in-house software that can be efficiently and accurately used to analyse the effects of blast and explosion on building structures. HexoBLAST has various modules for:

• Finding the effects of the explosives such as generating the pressure-time histories, based on ConWep;

• Analyse individual members such as beams and columns under blast loads;

• Consider non-linearity of the materials for steel and reinforced concrete members in the analysis;

• Perform a dynamic non-linear analysis in a few seconds and provide the response measures, such as forces, displacements and damage parameters;

• Can integrate with other software such as SAP2000, OpenSEES, etc. to perform the blast analysis.

​

Some of characteristics of the software (formerly named CU-BLAST) is published in the a prestigious peer-reviewed journal article below:
