A soldier examines two inverted VS-1.6 blast-resistant anti-tank landmines. Cut-away view of a VS-MK2 blast-resistant anti-personnel mine. A blast resistant mine is a landmine (intended for anti-tank or anti-personnel purposes) with a fuze which is designed to be insensitive to the shock wave from a nearby explosion.
EN 1063, or CEN 1063, is a security glazing standard created by the European Committee for Standardization for measuring the protective strength of bullet-resistant glass. It is commonly used in conjunction with EN 1522 (Euronorm standard for Bullet Resistance in Windows, Doors, Shutters and Blinds) to form a ballistic classification system by ...
Sand-colored VS-50 mine intended for use in desert environments (shown beside a wristwatch, for scale). An anti-personnel mine or anti-personnel landmine (APL) is a form of mine designed for use against humans, as opposed to an anti-tank mine, which target vehicles. [1]
Similarly, the PMN-4 is almost certainly a blast resistant mine due to the design of the flower-shaped pressure "spider" under the pressure-plate. [3] Cross-sectional diagrams of the PMN-4 showing its components support the view that the PMN-4 is a more sophisticated design than the PMN-2. [ 4 ]
Natural slate is also fire resistant and energy efficient. [21] Slate roof tiles are usually fixed (fastened) either with nails or with hooks (as is common with Spanish slate). [22] In the UK, fixing is typically with double nails onto timber battens (England and Wales) [23] or nailed directly onto timber sarking boards (Scotland and Northern ...
Minecraft "Perhaps the biggest stroke of genius in Minecraft". [67] This red mineral serves as in-game wiring, letting players lay down logic circuitry that controls pistons, minecarts and other dynamic elements in the game. [67] It is found as ore in deep caves.
The IMAS standards require that some parts of the body (including the chest, abdomen, groin and eyes) be protected against a blast from 240 grams of TNT at a distance of 60 centimeters; head protection is recommended. Although it says blast resistant boots may be used, the benefits are unproven and the boots may instill a false sense of security.
