Abstract

The Increase in explosive bombs and terrorist attacks in the last decade
whether in the military or non-military building has shown that the
impact of it should be taken in the design process.Egypt was one of the
countries targeted by terrorism, especially in Sinai, and that resulted ina
huge loss, whether in civilians or in the members of the armed forces.
In response to this challenge, this study sheds light on the architectural
and structural considerations and roles that could mitigate the potential
terrorist threat in buildings, especially the military buildings, as well,
determine the most important considerations and roles that affect in
designing safe fixed security points through an electronic questionnaire
examined by multidisciplinary stakeholders (25 experts) involved in
making a key decision in this subject, then,according to “ design-based
on evidence” a reliable smart architecturalmodel for a safe security
surveillance point was suggested for defending and encountering the
negative impact of the terrorist attack in Sinai.
