Summary

[edit]
Description

Nevada Test Site. Frenchman Flat.
This brick masonry structure (shelter) was built for the June 24, 1957, Priscilla test. The walls of the 32-foot by 28-foot building consist of two layers of brick with reinforcing steel in the center, forming a thickness of 10 inches. The flat roof is reinforced concrete. The blast from the nuclear test displaced the wall facing ground zero (east side) about one-quarter of an inch.
