Book Description
A curated collection of the best shelter designs Since the dawn of the Cold War in the 1950's people have sought ways to protect themselves from the specter of global thermonuclear war. Both the private sector and the U.S. government responded with plans for home bomb/fallout shelters. We have reviewed them all and selected the best of the best that still meet the needs of citizens in the 21st Century. With war in Europe again a 'new reality', the need for shelters is not such an old-fashioned idea anymore. Volume One focuses on shielding principles and the classic FEMA shelters, first envisioned in the 1960's, shown here in the updated 1980s-era versions. These nine different designs encompass three basic types; basement retrofit, above-ground, and stand-alone underground. Each design includes plan drawings, material lists (with 2022 costs in USD), and basic construction details. FEMA Shelter designs in this volume include: — Modified Ceiling Shelter, Basement "A" — — Modified Ceiling Shelter, Basement "B" — Concrete Block Shelter, Basement "C" — Snack Bar Shelter, Basement "D" — Tilt up Storage Unit, Basement "E" — Lean-To Shelter, Basement "F" — Outside Concrete Shelter — Aboveground Home Shelter — Home Shelter Masonry Block Future volumes will present more shelter types, including Canadian civil defense designs, and farm-specific ones that even include livestock protection shelters.
