BakerRisk and Rigid Global Buildings have teamed together in the design, fabrication and delivery of blast resistant Pre-engineered Metal Buildings (PEMBs). Blast-resistant PEMBs provide an efficient and cost effective method to meet siting requirements for buildings in relation to potential explosions.

The teaming of these two companies provides a single source for design-build contractors to meet the blast resistant criteria of industrial or government projects. BakerRisk is a global leader in the design of blast resistant buildings, with 30 years of experience in the design, testing and investigation of structural components subjected to blast. Rigid is a proven leader in the pre-engineered industry offering both structural steel and pre-engineered steel buildings. By combining their knowledge and experience, this team can provide PEMBs designed to meet the project specific requirements.

BakerRisk and Rigid Global Buildings will be showcasing their blast resistant pre-engineered metal building solution at the 2018 Downstream Conference & Exhibition in Galveston, Texas on May 31 – June 1, 2018.

Visit the BakerRisk – Rigid Global Buildings Exhibitor booth (Booth F-17) to speak with BakerRisk experts on this and other topics.
