Some of you obviously never considered the full scope of the reason for a bunker. Let's dumb it down for you. Your hiding from something. Why would you want to give public access to the entrance to your hideout. Does batman put a neon sign above the batcave door. Entrance to the batcave. NO. It's a secret. Obviously not to the neighbors. But having the entrance behind a locked garage door. Is better than just anyone can walk up and bust the lock off.

Awesome professional work in a tough fit. I think it was a very old "Twilight Zone" episode in the 1960's where a family had built and stocked a bunker. There was a Nuclear War warning and all the "friendly" neighbours went bat crip crazy breaking their way in. It turned our to be a false alarm. Buyer's choice here, but my first goal would be to have a bunker in a less populated area.

@@rickstout01 There have been multitudes of historic high mortality events that "remnants" of people survived, and we are their descendants. Some survival was "roll of the dice" ' ... some was attitude, location, and preparation. A "surrender" attitude does not bode well. Early in human existence there was a massive volcanic event in Sumatra that DNA analysis says reduced our ancient forebears in Africa to as few as 16 breeding pairs. That should have eliminated "The Quitter Gene", but apparently not. Think better.

With the escape hatch, so you let the sand into the bunker then TRY and push 6 inches of dirt up and out the way to escape! 6inches of matted turf and mud would be an absolute nightmare to try and push up from underneath, like if for some reason lets just say the bunker filled with smoke you wouldn't get out that hatch quick enough especially if you had 50 people in there, sounds more like a coffin than a safe place. Great video fantastic build, I wouldn't expect anything less from the Atlas team.

What a lot of People don't realize is that, no matter how well Engineered a Project like this might be, there is almost ALWAYS some kind of Engineering corrections that takes place "On the fly"!!! That being said, this much error should NOT have had a need to be accounted/corrected for AT THE PROJECT!!! Hopefully at least the Customer doesn't have to pay for this time delay and Engineering mistake!!! I love Atlas Products, and this would NOT prevent me from a purchase and installation of one of their Bunkers!!!

IMO, I suspect that in a few years, the driveway will have quite a few cracks. No matter how much rebar was installed, the concrete will shrink, but the bunker (steel) will not …… unless the driveway concrete was elevated above the steel bunker, and sufficient rebar was designed to clear span over it.

Once you have excavated the hole, why not simply pour a footing on bedrock, set forms for a foundation wall, and later pour a concrete lid over metal decking? Ideally, combining materials and factoring their HVL to achieve a PF1000, the lid is the most exposed area after the ingress / egress points. Unless you are at ground zero where the pressure wave is more of an issue than gamma radiation waves. You could pour two walls the appropriate thickness and set lead plate between them so you encapsulate the Pb to prevent site contamination. Four inches of Pb alone provides a PF1000, 24” of concrete equals the same, just like 36” of densely packed soil. If you intend to fill the over dig with concrete, like stated, you would easily meet a PF1000 level in concrete alone. I guess my question is why a steal bunker when you could pour a 24” foundation wall coved by 4” of concrete over metal decking and densely packed earth, and build out the bunker within. You would need 24” of concrete if it’s 4’ in the ground because the earth gives you gamma protection. I’d saw cut my home’s foundation wall and have my entrance through a multi-angle hallway constructed of the 24” inch concrete with my seal door at the entrance to the bunker. The sand filled escape tube would be necessary and filled low enough to meet the PF of the rest of the bunker. I don’t know, maybe I don’t understand something. Who knows and I love watching your videos. Peace

@@pappydaddy7447 Actually, no. I just like watching the channel because it’s interesting; however, while viewing this particular video and hearing they intended to completely fill the over-dig with concrete rather than soil, it caused me pause related to the overall expense of the project. Especially taking into account they were admittedly in bedrock. For the first time I researched gamma wave radiation attenuation. That lead to learning about half value layer (HVL) and protection factor (PF) with PF1000 noted as the modern day standard for private or residential CBRN bunkers. Admittedly, I went down a rabbit hole to some degree, but the knowledge I gained was immense. Thanks for asking. 🙃
@JaredaSohn
@JaredaSohn 4 ай бұрын
Good question, but given that the bunker is a big ole steel box and encased by 4' of concrete above + many feet of bedrock on all other sides it certainly exceeds the PF1000 minimum. Either way it is more than safe in regards to radiation. I would guess as to why they didn't opt to build a bunker on site out of concrete would be due to either time constraints, preferences, and/or possibly convenience (in a variety of ways).
