Abstract: A jet blast wall structure is provided which is adapted to withstand and deflect high temperature jet blasts from the jet engines of aircraft. The structure comprises a plurality of panels, each of which has a front panel face and edge frame members at each side of the front panel face to which the front panel face is secured. All components, including each front panel face is made substantially of fiberglass, and each edge frame member and each bolt or nut, used for production of the structure is also made from fiberglass. The structure is designed to have a predetermined shear strength, whereby in the event of impact of an aircraft with the jet blast wall structure, the bolts in the edge frame members of the impacted panel or panels will fail in shear so as to permit the impacted panel or panels to collapse and thereby so as preclude significant damage to the impacting aircraft.
