Cost Assessment for Shielding of C3 Type. Facilities

Abstract

Costs were estimated for four slightly different designs for an all- welded steel envelope shield to protect a C(3) facility against high-altitude EMP, and for an alternative shield design using overlapping steel sheets joined by powder-driven pins and with seams arc sprayed with zinc. The all-welded shields are substantially more expensive because of the high cost of MIG welding. (Author)
