Initial situation

Producing a substance from several components is a delicate process that can result in overloads. The bursting of a production installation is protected by a concrete tower open at the top, which resists the detonation pressure and directs it upwards.

The opening must also protect against flying debris. The protection against flying debris had to be strong enough and, at the same time, open enough to allow the detonation pressure to escape.

Description

A steel frame cage with a combination of ringnet and mesh placed over the frame structure is sufficiently permeable to the detonation pressure but strong enough to stop debris from flying at a very high velocity.
