eh, eh, Can I think like the best of them or what?
Wouldn't have helped in this situation however. According to MSN, the bombs were basically beefed up pipe bombs hidden inside of duffel bags back against the wall.

Pretty much as-called. Whoever did this knew what they were doing - knew their target, knew the techniques.
The bins still aren't a bad idea. Just one small part of making it more difficult to murder people in large numbers. Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Well, the mainstream news are now throwing insinuations towards right wing, patriots, anti-gov groups etc. You know what they say is usually far from truth
I'm starting to wonder if someone's building up to an ultimate goal of fomenting civil war with all the current internal tensions. It's a psychology act.

Explosive deterrent may be a better idea unless you want to make it impossible to put garbage in it. SWAT boxes are completely enclosed containers where the item is placed inside and sealed or they are lowered on top of the item and bolted to the ground. I though about hardened swing doors on the bin that would keep the blast inside because the pressure from the blast would press the door against the rim but I also realize that people tend to pack public trash cans to beyond full so it wouldn't really help the situation. Personally I think designing the can so that it directs the blast straight up would be an ideal bet, and unless you are the one unlucky SOB to have his hand in the bin the damage could be minimal.
You could consider a hard plastic or other material that warps under shock, so that the bin would essentially absorb the impact and inflate to contain the explosion. This would likely require some kind of seal or other method. Or as you suggested, upwardly direct the blast. The problem with some materials is, while they are strong a sudden blast can buckle or splinter them dangerously. Which is why softer, warping materials could be better?
I'm no expert with explosives, obviously.
Additionally; Thank you to all medical professionals and first responders, heroes all. |

The concept desighn we had was to filter potential fragments while directing the force upwards. 2 metal layers with a shock absorber gel anchored onto a reinforced concrete block in the ground to keep it all anchored. Open base form this to a concrete outer layer with a baffled air gap to let the force bleed off with as much of the fragments internalized.
Dunno if it will come to anything or not, fair few explosive bins on the market already it seems but they didn't look to be street bins more than ones for disposing of bombs found.

In large organized events, trashbins are removed from the streets and replaced with transparent plastic bags. It's cheaper than invest in sophisticate explosive-proof bins that can be bypassed by merely leaving the bomb outside of them.

Yep. They had a period where they had a very ingenuous bomb maker. Would rig a wallet with a little explosive, drop it in a hidden place, then someone would see it, grab it, and boom.

I was under the impression that the Basques specifically targeted government employees and soldiers, not civilians. |
