How To Build An Above Ground Fallout Shelter

  • So you wanna build a fallout shelter. Who can blame you, it's getting crazy out there. Now the specifications that we have compiled for you is especially for an above ground fallout shelter although we are working on something for those of you who would rather be underground.

    So rather than make this a super long post there is actually a booklet you can get as a PDF which is much simpler for you so here it is, just click on the picture and it will open up the booklet.

    But also before you go check out the two videos below.

    And as promised here are the videos we found. Maybe it's because I am such a fan of nostalgia or maybe it's because I love cartoons but I found these to be enjoyable despite their heavy content. So give em a watch and let us know what you think.

     

    of course a special thanks goes out to our friends at The Survivalist Blog for helping us out with this.

      The reason fallout shelters are below ground, is to provide enough mass between you and the fallout.

      Yes, in direct contact, the particles of radioactive matter will kill you…however, the reason for an underground shelter is to protect from the gamma radiation released as the radiation in the particles moves from a higher to lower energy state.

      Check the old civil defense guides, they have excellent data for constructions of all types
