Q

5 Recognize IED componets at a post blast scene.

A
  • components are going to vary based on the type of explosive (blast pressure and thermal effects). Most will be damaged, disfigured or pulverized making them harder to recognize. The damage will depend on the components position to the explosive charge, materials used to construct the components and shape of the component.
  • Location of post blast evidence can provide clues as to where the component was placed when the device was made.
  • May be possible to obtain FP, trace evidence, of the explosives material used to make the IED
