Blast-Resistant Buildings

Blast-resistant buildings—also known as blast-resistant modules or BRMs—provide temporary or long-term workspace in industrial environments where explosion hazards may exist. These reinforced structures can be used for operations offices, control rooms, turnaround facilities, permit offices, tool cribs and other essential onsite functions.

Hunter Onsite offers single modules, connected multi-unit complexes and specialty configurations designed around your workforce, site conditions and operational requirements. Explore our blast-resistant module options to find the right rental configuration for your project.

What Is a Blast-Resistant Building?

A blast-resistant building is a reinforced structure designed to help protect personnel and equipment from the effects of an explosion. Also known as a blast-resistant module or BRM, it can provide temporary or long-term workspace in refineries, chemical plants and other high-risk industrial environments.

Common Uses for Blast-Resistant Buildings

Blast-resistant buildings can be configured as operations offices, control rooms, turnaround facilities, permit offices, meeting rooms, tool cribs and other essential workspaces. Their modular design allows facilities to position functional space closer to active operations while addressing site-specific safety requirements.

How to Choose a Rental Configuration

The right configuration depends on the intended use, number of occupants, available site space and required proximity to operating equipment. Options range from standalone modules to connected multi-unit complexes and specialty buildings. Explore our blast-resistant modules or contact Hunter Onsite for help selecting a rental configuration.

Delivery and Site-Preparation Considerations

Before delivery, the placement area should be level, stable and accessible to the delivery vehicle. Adequate clearance may also be needed for placement and utility connections. Many Hunter Onsite units can be delivered using roll-off equipment, although requirements vary by building configuration and site conditions.
