A building module for use in constructing a blast-resistant modular building. The building module includes a pair of parallel skid members and a rectangular body mounted on the skid members. The body includes sides, a roof and a floor defining an interior of the building module. A first side of the body includes an opening;. A flange co-extensive with opposite sides and a top of the first side includes a plurality of holes for receiving respective bolt-type fasteners. Alignment pins project outwardly from the body proximal a bottom of the first side, for engaging corresponding alignment holes of the other building module. Each alignment pin includes a cylindrical portion at a base end of the pin, and a tapered portion. The cylindrical portion has a diameter corresponding to that of a respective alignment hole such that, when the alignment pin is fully seated in its respective alignment hole, the opening in the first side is secured in proper alignment with a corresponding opening of the other module, and shear loads between the two modules are transferred through the alignment pins. The tapered portion engages the respective alignment hole to properly guide the two module into proper alignment as the two modules are drawn together.
