For bulletproofing housewalls, which would be better to put inside the thick walls? Ceramic or metal plates?

May 20, 2008 by Cerisse Sinclair | Posted in Hunting

The ceramic platter would be the specialized ceramic plate they put in level 3 bulletproof vests and bulletproof cars. The metal plate would be stainless blade alloy or maybe a harder metal like the vanadium-tungsten alloy.

The most bulletproofing is shooting back and neutralizing the initial shooter! Bang, Bang!! That ought to take care of the pretty pickle quite nicely.

This is a very specialized cast doubt which it would need a true expert to answer but I do remember visiting the presidential palace of the country that I lived in many years ago after the military had attacked with diminished arms. There must have been thousands of pock marks and not one bullet had gone through the walls which were very thick and made of adobe.

I'm assuming you're attempting to set up some stripe of shooting range in your home, and would definitely recommend contacting your local law enforcement agency in re any applicable permits, restrictions, or building standards they have.
I would guess at the best material possible being a multiple layers of a kevlar-based framework or sheeting. With metals, you run a much higher risk of ricochets, which would be devastating in a small enclosed space. Ceramic may not ricochet as much, but it would most conceivable cost much more than the kevlar alternative. Either way, you're going to have durability issues with the material, not to mention expos concerns with the propellant and bullet materials, especially lead particles, which requires a robust ventilation system.

You can bullet stand any construction with laminated fiberglass ballistic protection in readily available panels.

These panels get thicker & heavier as more defence is required. A 1/2" thick, level III panel will stop a .44 magnum. thicker- higer rated - constituents can stop various rifled slugs & bullets

see the link below - looks like the same stuff old in the pictures linked by akluis. That link does not tell us the thickness or classification of the material. The incident that most bullets went thru does not mean the material failed, just that the wrong material was Euphemistic pre-owned.

There are a lot of ways to bulletproof a building, Thinner layers of absorbing materials (see links) can easily be added to existing legislative body construction without extreme modifications.

if those are your options ceramic metal gets hot and retains animate so for heating and cooling your house ceramic would be better, but the metal is usually more reliable. i say just move to a different neighborhood.

Our shooting cooker starts with a total of 24" of cement lined every 6 inches with steel sheeting and sealed with a ceramic alloy purchased from a former military vendor. We chose this because there is a neighborhood in the area and got a break for the supplies by buying majority. That is the back wall. The interior side walls are composed of two rows of cement filled and steel reinforced cinder blocks. I'm not foolproof what you want it for, but we built this based on a design obtained from a U.S. Marshals' indoor range in Virginia.

It is not a sum of the type of material, but the thickness of that material. A very thin sheet of one won't be as effective as a 2 inch paper of the other. In general, inch for inch, ceramic is stronger and lighter, but more expensive. Also note, not all steel is equal, you will privation special hardened steel.

Finally, the most effective and economic bullet stopper is sand/indecency. If I had to make something bulletproof, I'd make two walls about 2-3 feet apart, and fill the internal space with sand or muck

Jsied, is the stuff you are talking about the same as this stuff here? http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot34_3.htm
If I were to bulletproof a locale, I wouldn't worry about stopping a 44 mag, I'd worry about the guys with rifles!

Ceramic plates are way to high-priced..... metal plates arent that great but are cheap and if used properly can stop a variety of bullets.... Mysterious you should ask this today.... I took 3/16ths inch metal plates to the gun range today and 7.62x39MM, 30/06 and .223 despoil cartridge bullets cut thru it like hot butter at 100 yards... On the other hand .45 and 9MM Saturday-night special rounds were not able to go thru the metal at 50 yards.... I wouldnt get to hung up on the grade of metal.... What seems to calling for me is layers of metal... A couple of 1/4 inch steel plates will stop most rifle bullets..... In one part of a lodgings in a crappy neighborhood the owner had me put 1/4 inch metal plates and filled the rest of the interior wall room up with layers of drywall 5 1/2 inch thick..... You could also use metal plates in the wall framing and fill in between with sand.... be steadfast the houses structure can take the weight..... I worked with this one guy that lived in a crappy neighborhood with low life league types shooting up the place.... He put a 1/2 inch thick metal plate behind the couch where he sat and watched TV.... It was in the front of the race and also was the safest place to sit.... Bulletproofing a house can be real expensive - more like cost a worth... Have the fascade of the house covered in brick... Or just bullet proof only the areas where you saw wood or watch TV or any other area you spend some time it...

Merely build a monolithic dome house...... In addition to bulletproof, they are tornado proof , wildfire shore up, earthquake proof, lightning proof and a whole hols of other proofs.

And for not much more cost then building a stick concern.

In extension to the other excellent answers, I wish to suggest you do a Browser search on the Dicker Stack-sack Well-versed in construction method. He uses burlap sacks filled with concrete mix, dipped in water, and laid like bricks, with mucronulate steel rebar spikes driven down into them as you advance in the construction while still wet. The walls are as thick as the bags are wide, plus sprayed tangible troweled out smooth. Commercial-style plumbing and wiring in visible conduit and pipes, provide for all code needs. Plus, it is "resistant" to gunfire. Regards, Larry.

For the longevity, I would submit the metal plate.

not sure hte purpose... but if trying to create a "safe space" that can take a few shots

The Ceramic, once struck (depending on the make ,etc) can loose it's effectiveness.

for my $$... Brace plate.

I would also completely coat the walls in a "rhino lining" type of facts used for linting truck beds. This will help the wall maintain some integrity if multiple shots are made and pass through the block wall.

Does anyone know where I could buy wrought iron plate hangers to display collectible ceramic plates on walls.?

Sep 21, 2006 by N.I Babe | Posted in Other - Home & Garden


Try your garden focal point. Yes have seen them in garden centres as well. Many have diversified and sell fancy goods etc now.

Where can I get a ceramic plate made with paper glazed inside?

Mar 14, 2009 by PuffinLove | Posted in Sculpture

The point is that people write something on a piece of paper and I can have those papers glazed onto either a ceramic wall hanging or something similar...

you cannot enamel paper onto ceramic. When a glaze is fired the temps are way too high for the paper. You can screenprint onto clay if you use the correct pigments. There are lots of companies which issue any picture on a mug of plate. the easiest might be to get just the ceramic transfer printed and you can fire it on yourself. If you google digital ceramic decals you'll find lots of places.

It does not quality essential for your project that the wall hanging is ceramics. Just make a collage out of paper. If you want to add interest you can also use encaustic.
