DESIGN & TESTING
Our team of engineers
are experts at designing shielding for machine
protection, blasts and
projectile
impacts. We offer onsite consulting to determine your specific force
protection requirements and engineer a total solution.
The TotalShield team are leading experts in the structural design
of impact and blast resistant structures. We have forged a critical
relationship with Southwest Research
Institute, the leading authority
in blast and impact testing in the United States. TotalShield’s first protective
system was originally tested at Southwest Research Institute
to withstand a 32 lb steel projectile traveling at 85 ft/s, (60
m.p.h.).

After determining your force protection requirements, we compare your levels with our proprietary test database. If your requirements do not reside within that database, we perform additional proof testing at Southwest Research Institute. This ensures that all shielding that we install performs to the level at which it was designed.
TotalShield’s crews will then install shielding
at your site, or we can utilize your labor and supervise installation. Installation supervision ensures that your shielding will protect as specified.
