A 13x15x2-foot concrete slab supportea a
User-furnished collimator block similar to Stations 2410.01-.03. Shielding of two opposite
sides of the block was accomplished by 2-foot-
thick concrete and scrap metal walls, 6 feet high
and 9 feet long. The two walls were braced
against overpressure by three removable steel
struts between the top of the walls. About onehalf the floor slab was thickened to 3 feet to
contain steel bracing members supporting the
collimator blocks against overpressure. Lead
brick shielding was provided on the top and
front wall of the collimator block. Access holes
in the slab were provided for the User-furnished
vertical lift jacks used for adjustment. The en-
tire structure was earth covered for protection
against early events. The fill was later removed
and replaced to provide a sand-bagged opening
in the fill for line of sight.
