Download or read book Experimental Evaluation of the Fallout-radiation Protection Provided by Selected Structures in the Los Angeles Area written by Zolin G. Burson and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental study designed to provide a basis for estimating protection against fallout radiation was conducted on four diversified structures in the Los Angeles, Calif., area. This study was sponsored by the Civil Effects Test Operations (CETO), Division of Biology and Medicine, U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. The four buildings studied were (1) the Laboratory of Nuclear Medicine and Radiation Biology at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA); (2) a family fallout shelter; (3) the communications section of the Los Angeles Police Department building; and (4) a typical classroom located at North Hollywood High School. A fallout radiation field was simulated by the Mobile Radiological Measuring Unit. The unit employed a single radioactive Co(exp 60) source, which was pumped at a uniform speed through a long length of tubing evenly distributed over the area of interest. Measurements of the radiation levels at selected points inside the structures were made with highly sensitive ionization- chamber detectors. Protection factors ranged from 10 to 2000 in the UCLA building, up to 10,000 in the family fallout shelter, from 50 to 150 in the communications section of the police building, and from less than 10 to approximately 20 in the high school classroom.

Download or read book Experimental Evaluation of the Radiation Protection Provided by an Earth-covered Shelter written by Zolin G. Burson and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was undertaken to determine the protection against fallout radiation provided by an earth-covered shelter. The study indicated that the shelter offered excellent protection from fallout radiation deposited on and around the shelter. This study also added additional data to the research in radiation shielding provided by various structures which is being conducted by the Civil Effects Test Operations, Division of Biology and Medicine, U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. A fallout radiation field was simulated by pumping, at constant speed, a sealed Co60 source through a long length of tubing which was evenly distributed over an area. Radiation measurements were made Inside the shelter by dose-integrating ionization chambers. In general, the results indicated that the protection factor (ratio of the open-field exposure dose rate to the exposure dose rate in the structure) was approximately 5000 in the center of the shelter, increasing to 10,000 to 15,000 along the sides, and decreasing to about 3000 near the ends. Directly below vents the protection factor was found to be approximately 2500 at the 3-ft level. The shelter was a half-round corrugated-steel structure covered by a minimum of approximately 2 ft of earth on the top and 5 to 7 ft of earth on the sides.

Download or read book Analysis of Some Experiments on Fallout Shielding by Above-ground Structures written by James M. Ferguson and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current method for predicting the protection against fallout radiation by above-ground structures is tested against various experiments. The scope of the study is limited to the radiation entering the structure by penetrating vertical barriers. Various approximations inherent in the method, such as energy dependence, assumed barrier shapes, and separation of barrier and geometry effects, are investigated by comparison with experiments. In general it is found that the existing method gives reasonable agreement for the types of structures of interest in applications of the method. Estimates of the resulting errors are given.

Download or read book Experimental Evaluation of the Fallout-radiation Protection Afforded by a Southwestern Residence written by Z. Burson and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental study was conducted to determine the fallout-radiation protection afforded by a residence representative of a type of construction much in favor in the Southwest: a single-story stucco and frame house with a heavy shake roof and no basement. This study was one of many such studies sponsored by Civil Effects Test Operations, Division of Biology and Medicine, U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, for the purpose of evaluating the protection presently afforded by ordinary homes and structures against the dangers of fallout radiation. The protection afforded by the home was determined by simulating a fallout-radiation field above and immediately surrounding the house and measuring the radiation level within. The radiation field was simulated by pumping a sealed Co(60) source through a long length of tubing evenly distributed over the test area. Highly sensitive dose-integrating ionization chambers were used to measure the radiation level inside the structure. The test was performed rapidly, easily, and safely. Valid statistical data were obtained even though the radiation level was of such low magnitude that it was unnecessary to evacuate any of the neighboring homes. The protection factors within the house (ratio of exposure dose rate in the open field to exposure dose rate in the structure) ranged from 2.8 to 4.4, depending on the location. The results compare favorably with those found in previous exercises under similar conditions.

Download or read book Shielding Considerations in the Design of Hardened Structures written by Charles M. Huddleston and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An evaluation has been made of some of the factors to be considered in the design of hardened structures. In particular, radiation shielding requirements have been specified for various weapon sizes, distances from impact point, and blast overpressure. It has been shown that an envelope of curves can be constructed to allow the specification of shielding criteria to insure that radiation protection is commensurate with the survivability of a structure from blast effects. Also, a mathematical analysis is given of the relationship between protection factors and percent lethalities due to fallout radiation. The results described in this note should be directly applicable to the promulgation of design criteria for radiation shielding. (Author).
