3.2.17 USS RENSHAW Dose Calculations

The RENSHAW experienced relatively light fallout following Shots BRAVO,
ROMEO, and NECTAR and crew duty routines probably were not altered by its
presence.

The daily film badge dose is calculated by multiplying the integrated

intensity topside (Table 2-17) by

the time-averaged

shielding

factor

(0.46);

the

integrated intensity below is multiplied by the fraction of the day spent below deck
(0.6). Contributions from each source are summed and converted to a film badge dose.
Cumulative film badge doses through 31 May 1954 are given in Table 3-17.
