Description PLUMBBOB - 1957 - NEVADA TEST SITE -- The underground chamber of a dual purpose structure, designed by Amman & Whitney Consulting Engineers as a part of FCDA's participation in the Civil Effects Test Group program, was undamaged by a recent atomic detonation. The huge room, about 90 ft. square, can be used either as an underground garage or as a mass shelter. 2 of the 3 rows of massive columns which support a reinforced concrete roof slab 2' 6' thick are shown. Radiation dosimeters have been removed from the interior. The structure is designed to be expanded to any desired size.
