#Mamad

Ukrainian developers are testing Israeli in-apartment bomb shelters, “MAMADs,” but a regulatory vacuum and doubled capital costs are hindering mass adoption. We break down the economics, engineering limitations, and gaps in the building codes.

Ukrainian developers are testing safety rooms based on the Israeli MAMAD standard. Perfect Group is launching a pilot project, however the regulatory status of 'mamads' is absent from the DBN, and the price tag is 3–4% of the housing cost.
