Description

The explosive brand name is required to illustrate a specific teaching point which enhances the current curriculum of the AEDT course. This includes the packaging material used for transporting supplies. AEDT utilizes the type of packaging as a learning point for students in the program.

AEDT utilizes multiple different manufacturers of explosives. Our curriculum addresses multiple different types of explosives. The shot layouts have been designed for disposal, and the accompanying mathematical calculations necessitate a specific brand to be used.

Note: all of the items must have a date shift code within a year of manufacture at the time of delivery.

Items must be delivered to the Redstone Arsenal unless pickup can be arranged within 250 miles of the Redstone Arsenal.

Refer to the attached synopsis/solicitation for Attachment A - Pricing table (required) and Attachment B - Brand Name.
