A closure (10) for a building which is inhibitive to explosive effects and with which an opening in a building can be closed off comprises a filling (3) as well as frame elements (1, 2) which enclose the same substantially in a circular fashion. Said frame elements (1, 2) are connected in a non-positive way by means of fastening elements with parts (6) of the building which are adjacent to the opening. In order to achieve a secure connection which withstands high loads between the closure (10) and the part (6) of the building made of building materials of low strength, it is proposed rectangular brackets (4) are fastened to the frame elements (1) on at least two opposite sides of the closure (10). At least one tensile leg (7) each of the brackets (4) extends close to the reveal (L) of the opening. At least one supporting leg (8) each of the brackets (4) extends at a distance from the visible side (9) of the part (6) of the building adjacent to the opening.
A closure (10, 30, 50, 60, 70) for a building designed so as to be inhibitive to an explosive effect, with which an opening in a building can be closed off and which comprises a filling (3) as well as frame elements (1, 2) substantially enclosing the same in a circular fashion, with the frame elements (1, 2) being connectable in a non-positive manner by means of fastening elements to parts (6) of the building which are adjacent to the opening, characterized in that rectangular brackets (4, 34, 54, 64, 64′, 74) are fastened to the frame elements (1, 2) on at least two opposite sides of the closure (10, 30, 50, 60, 70), with at least one tensile leg (7, 59, 79) each of the brackets (4, 34, 54, 64, 64′, 74) extending close to the reveal (L) of the opening and at least one supporting leg (8, 38, 58, 81) of the brackets (4, 34, 54, 64, 64′, 74), which extends in a substantially rectangular manner thereto, extending at a distance from one visible side (9) of the part of the building adjacent to the opening.
