This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Civil Defense Urban Analysis This manual presents methods and procedures for use by city civil defense organizations in preparing a civil defense urban analysis. An urban analysis is the process of collecting, present ing, analyzing, and utilizing pertinent information about urban areas. Since the primary purpose of a civil defense urban analysis is to provide the tools for undertaking realistic civil defense planning, all pertinent aspects of the city must be considered. Assembling data and presenting the information graphically on maps is only the first step in an urban analysis. The area in which an exploded A-bomb can cause maximum casualties and physical damage must be located. Then a hypothetical attack must be assumed and the damage assessed. From this is deter mined not only the potential casualties but also the potential damage to each urban feature. Next, the physical area of the city must be organized for operations and operational plans developed by the civil defense services. In this manner, the urban analysis can be of practical use rather than as mere reference material to be looked at occasionally before the attack or to be referred to after the attack. The methods and procedures presented here are suggested ones only. Alternate improved methods may be worked out in some instances. Maximum utilization should be made of avail able maps and data in municipal and other public offices and agencies as well as those in private institutions.

Download or read book Civil Defense Implications of Current and Future Urban Configurations written by Henry L. Woltman and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the possibilities of vul nerability reduction through long-term changes in urban form and structure, in the light of projected trends in economic and social forces affecting future urban development. Urban decen tralization is likely to continue in the future, and technological change may permit delibera72acceleration of this trend toward sprawling urban regions. Various conceptual and empirical urban forms are reducible to a few basic types. The vulnerability characteristics of the different forms are mixed, but the galaxy and dispersed sheet forms are generally best suited to civil defense purposes. These are similar to the forms that future urban regions are expected to take. A variant of the dispersed sheet form is con sidered the most advantageous; it would provide compact urban communities, separated by extensive open spaces devoted to nonurban land uses, within future metropolitan areas. In addition, efforts to increase the 'hardness' of urban structures are desirable. An increased proportion of high hardness structural types should be encouraged in the building mix. This increase should take the form mainly of high-hardness residential structures dispersed singly or in clusters throughout residential areas. Indirect methods are considered by which progress toward these objectives might be assisted through various on going Federal and state governmental activities. (Author).

Book excerpt: This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS). It sets forth joint doctrine to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in joint operations and provides the doctrinal basis for interagency coordination and for US military involvement in multinational operations. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for operations, education, and training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall objective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable Regeneration of Former Military Sites is the first book to analyze a profound land use change happening all over the world: the search for sustainable futures for property formerly dedicated to national defense now becoming redundant, disposed of and redeveloped. The new military necessity for rapid flexible response requires quite different physical resources from the massive fixed positions of the Cold War, with huge tracts of land and buildings looking for new uses. The transition from military to civilian life for these complex, contaminated, isolated, heritage laden and often contested sites in locations ranging from urban to remote is far from easy. There is very little systematic analysis of what follows base closures, leaving communities, governments, developers, and planners experimenting with untested land use configurations, partnership structures, and financing strategies. With twelve case studies drawn from different countries, many written by those involved, Sustainable Regeneration of Former Military Sites enables the diverse stakeholders in these projects to discover unique opportunities for reuse and learn from others’ experiences of successful regeneration.
