First sentence: The threat of intentional (Lockerbie (1988) [1], World Trade Center (1993) [2], Khobar Towers (1996), Nairobi and Dar Es Salaam (1998), etc.) or accidental (Seveso (1976), oilrigs, oil refineries, etc.) explosions is a reality that planners have to take seriously when designing buildings, particularly those that will have a large concentration of people (airports, embassies, etc.).
