Disaster and WMD Defence Guide/Shelter Location
You should primaly take shelter in a CP shelter. If you don't have this option, in case of nuclear leak take cover in an under ground cellar space or in case of a gas leak you should (depending on the gas) take cover in the top floor (don't go to the attic, because attics usually present a lot of "blocking" which will be handled later,
Radioactivity weakens
[edit | edit source]When it goes through material For example 35 cm (14inches) of concrete reduces the radiation levels to 1:50
| Name | 1:50 | 1:100 |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete 35 cm | Concrete 45 cm | |
| Brick 50 cm | Brick 60 cm | |
| Solid earth 55 cm | Solid earth 70 cm |
When the distance to the radiating particles grows, half of the radiation is received when a person is within 8 meter radius of the source of radiation.
With time
| Time | Drop |
|---|---|
| 2H | 1:2 |
| 7H | 1:10 |
| 48H | 1:100 |
| 2 weeks | 1:1000 |
