INMA Workshop Wednesdays: Next Generation Building Materials for Force Protection and Electromagnetic Security

November 29, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm EST

Today’s natural and man-made threats require us to think differently and drive the need for improved building design and materials. From blasts, to gunfire or EMP attack, innovative building materials are being used to increase resiliency and prevent or reduce catastrophic failure, reduce downtime in areas such as data centers, and to prevent deaths.

Join us as we explore the innovative science and practical experience behind building materials such as bullet absorbing walls, materials to shield structures from EMP, high winds, blasts and high impact incidents. Threats to our critical infrastructure are great and ever changing, so too must our thought processes and materials.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Understand latest advancements in building materials, security measures, and landscape of threats and mitigation strategies.
2. Gain insight into science behind next-gen building materials, explore factors that make them superior to traditional alternatives.
3. Learn about risks associated with electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) and Carrington events and discover evolving security measures.
