Download or read book Evaluation of the Fallout Protection Afforded by Brookhaven National Laboratory Medical Research Center written by H. M. Borella and published by . This book was released on 1961 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental study was made to determine the protection against fallout radiation provided by the Medical Research Center at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Shelter areas in the basement which could be used as emergency hospital wards were found to offer satisfactory shielding during a fallout situation. This study also added data to the nuclear energy civil effects research being conducted by the Civil Effects Test Operations, Division of Biology and Medicine, United States Atomic Energy Commission, on the radiation shielding provided by structures. A fallout radiation field was simulated by pumping a sealed Co60 source through a long length of evenly distributed tubing. Radiation measurements were made inside the Medical Center by dose-integrating ionization chambers. In general, the protection factors (ratio of open-field exposure dose rate to structure exposure dose rate) varied from 200 to 400 throughout the basement and from 12 to 20 on the first floor. Two isolated areas in the basement Indicated much higher protection factors (1400 and 4000). Since this was a large one-story structure with a flat roof, fallout on the roof would probably contribute more than 90 per cent of the total exposure dose rate at most points within the building during a fallout situation. Methods of significantly increasing the protection at most points of interest are limited to increasing the shielding material between the shelter areas and the roof or removing the contamination from the roof.

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.
