EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF PARTIAL SHIELD CONFIGURATION

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4250891
An experimental study was conducted on partial shields to resolve problem areas in the design of ground support equipment for nuclear aircraft servicing. The use of test versions of partial shields in various airplane maintenance situations was evaluated. General shield configurations and interior layouts are recommended which permit work on items in front of, above, or underneath the partial shield. Tools and equipment are described which pcrmit shielded work to be accomplished in times that compare favorably with unshielded work performance. (auth)
