Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Architecture: Fallout Shelters As an important part of the full shelter program, the Office of Civil Defense is engaged in several professional development activities for architects and engineers. Among these are: (l) the professional development of architects and engineers in fallout shelter design to evaluate existing buildings and to design shelters in new buildings, (2) operation of short courses for-the development of professional knowledge, (3) experimentation with equipment and facilities for shelters, and (4) research by organizations and universities to study problems related to shelter design. The development of the capability for protective construction among architects and engineers is the responsibility of the Architectural and Engineering Development Division of the Office of Civil Defense, which works directly with the organized professions and the schools of archi tecture and engineering Courses are offered to architects and engineers at various schools and universities throughout the country to acquaint them with the new technology of radiation shielding design and analysis. Certification by the Department of Defense as a qualified shelter analyst is granted upon successful completion of the course Those architects and engineers wishing to enroll in these courses can contact their nearest local, state or regional civil defense office for information and enrollment forms. The topic of this report deals with both the facilities of the plant and the protection of the occupants from fallout gamma radiation in the event of possible nuclear attack. By creating this protection, respon sible leaders of industry will provide this security as an extra employee benefit and also contribute to the strength and preparedness of the country. It is the architect's role both to advise the building owner and to translate his industrial program into physical reality. The architect's honest expression of the functions of various manufacturing processes produces an architecture of bold forms, clarity of structure, and integrity of materials which has become the credo of contemporary architecture. As needs become more-complex, the architect's role becomes even more vital. The industrial building is a trademark for the product, and the plant facilities are the environment which influences the efficiencies, loyalties, and attitudes of the workers.
