We are a blast hazard engineering firm in Ottawa providing service to government, commercial, and industrial clients.

Who We Provide Blast Hazard Engineering Services For


Capacity Engineering provides blast hazard engineering services to industrial, governmental, diplomatic (foreign governments), and commercial sectors. We provide analysis for threat mitigation, design passive and active structural protection, carry out pre-start reviews in dangerous atmospheres, and a wide variety of energetics based projects. Our work includes analysis for accidental and terrorist action initiated explosions as well as potential future hazards. We also provide blast modeling and develop blast resistance structures.

Industrial

There can be many risks when manufacturing and producing goods. We help mitigate some of those blast hazards to keep your work safe.

Government

We work with local and foreign governments to provide industry leading defensive blast hazard engineering services.

Commercial

We work with commercial clients who have potentially hazardous materials or supplies that need to be kept safe.

Blast Hazard Mitigation and Loss Prevention

Capacity Engineering primarily focuses on blast hazard mitigation with particular emphasis on loss prevention. We work with companies that are in a pre-project planning stage and companies with existing blast hazards that need an analysis of those potential hazards.

Pre Start Blast Hazard Analysis


Structural work for rennovation

Capacity Engineering is able to look into your project and help determine where potential blast hazards may originate; sources of high energy events are often poorly understood, and well concealed - intentionally or not. We work with clients to develop a safety plan, including the elimination of risks whenever possible, and apply numerous strategies to make your project as safe or blast resistant as possible. We also help Governments identify economical ways to address blast hazard threats which may exist with respect to their assets, and develop concrete (in additional to steel and other material based) plans to best mitigate those. While not every threat can be eliminated, we firmly believe every thread may be addressed.

Broad Based Blast Hazard Engineers In Ottawa

Capacity engineering has dedicated a lot of resources in hiring and training our engineers to be the high quality blast hazard engineers, and to deliver the best team for blast mitigation and defensive design in Ottawa. We have engineers who previously worked as blast hazard engineers in the government, industry (mining as well as defensive design), and work with some of the best threat assessment professionals available. We take a great deal of pride in training our newer engineers to become just as competent and knowledgeable as the people that have been doing it for years.  Designs carried out by our team's engineers have been subject to hundreds of high-pressure events (both accidental and purposeful detonation based), surviving these as designed.  Count on our team to provide a thorough options analysis and economical result.

Accidental Explosion And Potential Explosion Analysis


Sometimes accidents happen and there is an unforeseen explosion in a workplace. It is important to have a blast hazard engineer carry out a thorough and detailed analysis of what went wrong, applying forensic techniques to determine causal factors and a step by step history of the events out what lead to it happening. It is equally important to have periodic analysis of potential explosions to avoid this problem all together. Capacity engineering is able to provide both accidental and potential explosion analysis.
