Security       

KKCS has highly qualified and credentialed design engineers with experience designing and constructing surface and marine security systems. They have the technical expertise and specialized software to perform high tech impact analyses and performance simulations.

Marine Barrier Technology:
Preventing Attacks and Resisting Natural Forces at Port and River Crossings

Marine perimeters present a unique security problem as they can be breached from both land and sea. As such, most maritime security deals with reactionary solutions to merely dampen the aftereffects of an attack. To preemptively secure these vulnerable areas from water-borne attacks, KKCS’ team of maritime experts has designed a Marine Barrier (MB) pendulum system for seawater. Made of barge-assembled steel reinforced concrete or HDPE (high-density polyethylene) planks, the MB provides a long-term deterrent, permitting detection and turning away of both terrorists and pirates with explosives or weaponry.

The MB pendulum system can provide an impenetrable wall at port facilities, between the outer pilings of a wharf, physically preventing attack access. At nuclear and DOD facilities the MB can physically prevent attack access up river channels by attaching to the underside of existing river crossing bridges between pilings.

Surface Barrier Technology:
Functionally Attractive, DOS K-12 Certified Perimeter Security Barriers

KKCS and its Team of security experts have designed an esthetically pleasing surface barrier for stopping terrorists attacking with truck-borne explosives. Design impact forces from a Ford F800 truck weighing 15,000 pounds and traveling at over 50 mph have been stopped in less than two feet by our surface barrier. The surface barrier technology is fully certified to meet both the State Department’s K-12 rating as well as ASTM F 2656-07 (M50) standards.

The unique aspect of our surface barrier is that it can be incorporated into the existing hardscape design. From the outside, our highly effective barriers look like visually attractive benches which can be combined with colorful planters or bicycle racks adjacent to the curbside of roadways. Cityscapes can be beautified and protected. For more infomation click here.
