SHELTER CONFIGURATION: ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND RELATED PARAMETERS

Abstract

The investigation is preliminary to studies concerned with (1) separate and combined effects of all factors that significantly affect costs and performance of environmental control systems for shelters and (2) reciprocal effects of structure and system configuration on overall cost-effectiveness. Representative configurations are outlined for shelters to be used as models in subsequent studies, which are oriented toward underground shelters that would provide protection from weapons effects in the 10-20 psi overpressure range.
