PROPOSED SPECIFICATIONS FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC SHIELDING OF ENCLOSURES AND BUILDINGS.

Abstract

An investigation was made whs intended to result in definitive specifications and archi tectural plans for the fabrication and installa tion of large radio frequency shielded rooms and buildings. The shielding effectiveness of various materials, and fabrication methods for on-site construction from basic materials was determined by literature research and laboratory investigation as required. Methods of electri cal bonding between sheets were studied for ini tial shielding effectiveness and deterioration with aging. The relative merits of butt versus overlapping joints were also determined. The end product is definite drawings and specifica tions which will provide an optimum shielding effectiveness for such buildings in practice, considering plane wave fields 2 to 10,000 mc, and electromagnetic fields 10 kc to 2 mc.
