Book Synopsis Expedient Shelter Construction by : Cresson H. Kearny
Download or read book Expedient Shelter Construction written by Cresson H. Kearny and published by Loose Cannon. This book was released on 1976-03-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simple shelters—that you can build quick Research was undertaken to evaluate how average citizens could create their own shelters in the case of a political crisis that could lead to a nuclear attack. It was known that at this time in the mid-1970s, after Civil Defense planning and spending had waned since the 1950’s-60’s, that both the Soviet Union and China had more preparations for their citizens in major urban areas. This book was created under the auspices of the U.S. ERDA, an agency created in 1974 when the Atomic Energy Commission was split into the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the ERDA. This practical field research study became the original basis for Cresson Kearny’s more extensive book “Nuclear War Survival Skills”. What makes this report interesting and different is the wealth of extra info and photos that were NOT included in the book mentioned above. Simple shelters that can be built in 1 to 3 days and are outlined in this book are: - The Need for Improved Expedient Shelters - Door-Covered Trench Shelter - Stress test of Door-Covered Trench Shelter - Log-covered Trench Shelter - Occupancy test of Log-Covered Shelter - Above-Ground Door-Covered Shelter - Car-Over Trench Shelter - Large Log-Covered Trench Shelter - Overall conclusions and recommendations From the Introduction: "This report strongly indicates the practicality of tens of millions of Americans evacuating into rural areas and building and occupying high-protection-factor expedient shelters during an escalating international crisis. This concept was successfully tested by untrained families who built expedient shelters during winter in Colorado, summer in Utah, and spring in Florida. Their efforts are presented in this report primarily by the captioned photographs showing these typical American families evacuating their homes, driving to rural shelter-building sites, and then, with hand tools, constructing their own shelters. These average, mostly urban, American families were guided only by step-by-step, well-illustrated, written instructions given to them at the start of each experiment. Crisis conditions were simulated, and adequate motivation was provided by the promise of a cash bonus for completion of the shelter within 36 or 48 hours, depending on the difficulty of construction. All families, or groups of families, succeeded in winning the bonus, with one exception. The shelters built by the test families included the Door-Covered Trench Shelter, the Log-Covered Trench Shelter (which the building family occupied for 77 hours without emerging), and the Car-Over-Trench Shelter. Also, families are pictured while building four above-ground shelters designed for high-water-table or shallow-soil areas: the Above-Ground Door-Covered Shelter, the Crib-Walled Shelter, the Ridge-Pole Shelter, and the A-Frame Pole Shelter. These four above-ground shelters have protection factors (PF) in the range of 250 to 500. " Keywords: Civil defense,shelter,nuclear war,fallout,survival,improvised,radioactivity
Book Synopsis Blast Testing of Expedient Shelters in Model Scale by : Edward D. Esparza
Download or read book Blast Testing of Expedient Shelters in Model Scale written by Edward D. Esparza and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A research program was conducted to evaluate the blast resistance of expedient fallout shelters designed for the civilian population in the event of a nuclear attack. As part of this research, model size shelters of six different designs were tested in a shock tunnel at average overpressure levels of 2.8, 4. 6, and 8.8 psi. Measurements of the external blast pressures and internal pressure leakage into the model shelters were made. The expedient shelters tested utilize, in general, shallow soil excavation, load-bearing members of timber or doors, and soil-covered roofs. Replica model sizes were selected so that the shock tunnel load durations were long enough to test in the quasi- static load realm. Some of the shelter designs survived at every overpressure level very well, while other tests items suffered structural failures in almost every case. This paper presents a brief description of the experiments, including some details of the shelters, of the model fabrication and pressure measurement system, and a summary of the results.

Book Synopsis Radiation Safety in Shelters by : FEMA
Download or read book Radiation Safety in Shelters written by FEMA and published by Loose Cannon. This book was released on with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you have a fallout shelter, you need radiation detection equipment! If you have radiation detection gear, you need a manual! This 1983 book, created by FEMA, is the Gold standard for learning how to monitor radiation in a fallout shelter. Essentially a 'Survey meters/dosimeters for Dummies', it presents a complex and technical subject in a very simple, easy to understand manner that anyone can learn. General topics covered are types of ionizing radiation, how it is measured, symptoms and effects of exposure, shielding and avoiding contamination. Also covered are facts about fallout, use of a survey meter (V-715), the testing and use of pen-type dosimeters and even troubleshooting such equipment. Everything is explained to just the level needed to get the job done and keep people safe. It includes Action checklists, Exposure record sheet examples and a very handy glossary as well. A must-have reference inside every shelter! Sections include: - Checklists for Radiological Monitors - What is Nuclear Radiation - The 7:10 Rule - How Much Nuclear Radiation is Harmful? - How Fallout Radioactivity Arrives and Decays - Instruments for detecting nuclear radiation - How to get your radiological instruments ready for operation - Radiation safety procedures - Decontamination of People Caught in Fallout - Finding the Places with the Lowest Radiation Levels in the Shelter - Keeping Track of Everyone's Radiation Exposure - Checking Radiation Levels Beyond the Immediate Shelter Area ALSO: See our other book on fallout shelters, "Expedient Shelter Construction" and "Shelter Plans Anthology 1"
