Aviation Security in Airport Development (ASIAD) is an anti-terrorism program that has been implemented by the Department for Transport in the United Kingdom to incorporate design elements into airports which will impart resistance to bomb blasts.^[1] Components such as heat-strengthened laminated glass is used for windows, security barriers, and the terminal facade.^[2]

Designs employed[]

• Bespoke structural bonding of frame to glass.
• Increasing the strength components for track and door running systems.
• Maintaining flexibility and ductility of door frame components.
• Restriction of projectile components when high forces of an explosive event occur.
• Increasing robustness of drive motors, running gear, and operating systems
• Incorporating various combinations of multi-laminated glass at varying thicknesses and with anti-shard glass properties.
• Built-in sensors for reaction on forced opening, etc.
• Blast resistant anti-jump runner systems.
• Toughened sensor controls
• Post-blast retained structural barrier to restrain physical attack, or unauthorized or forced entry or escape.^[3]
