One significant strand of this work is to increase the resistance of building fabric, particularly doors and walls, to battery-powered cutting attacks.
The research has identified, tested and demonstrated a number of materials and mechanisms that have the potential to prevent or hinder powered cutting, adding a delay to associated attack times.
A database has been produced detailing all the research carried out to date within the project. If manufacturers wish to investigate the information further, conduct further development, design and manufacture of security products with greater resilience to these tools they do so at their own resource.
It is hoped that a reduction in cost and weight can also be achieved when compared to the conventional materials used within these products.
