Description PLUMBBOB - 1957 - NEVADA TEST SITE -- Close-up of entrance to dual-purpose underground garage and mass shelter, sponsored by the Federal Civil Defense Administration under the Nevada Test Organization's Civil Effects Test Program. The retaining wall (left) has been partially dislodged, but does not interfere with operation of the massive door leading to the 90-feet square underground room. The underground structure, designed by Ammann and Whitney Consulting Engineers and covered by about three feet of earth, was planned and located to stand up to pressures of about 30 pounds per square inch.
