Abstract
A method to attach a V-shaped or parabolic-shaped blast shield or other blast shields, to the bottom of a vehicle space frame that serves the purpose of redirecting the blast forces away from the crew compartment of the vehicle. Inner beams that run the length or width of the blast shield, align with the space frame running in the same direction. The beams are attached with bolts going through the top of each beam and into a threaded boss welded in the space frame. To attach the sides of the blast shield to the space frame, a rail adapter bracket mounts to the bottom of the space frame that has threaded bosses welded into the space frame. Slotted holes for forward and back and side-to-side adjustment on an adapter bracket are employed to help attach the blast shield to the space frame.
