"The Future Belongs To Those Who Plan"

RADIUS MILITARY MODEL UNDERGROUND SHELTERS AND LOCAL BUILDING CODES 1. Radius underground disaster shelters are totally selfcontained structural fiberglass high pressure structures designed to protect 6-100 adults for 15 to 360 days. The shelters are specifically designed and developed to protect people during and after disasters such as tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, storms, forest fires, power failures, nuclear power plant accidents, nuclear/chemical terrorism, and full-scale protracted nuclear, chemical and biological war. The shelters include the fiberglass structure, fiberglass entranceway, fiberglass/composite fire/bullet resistant hatch at ground level, Multiple Chamber Air Filtration System (MCAS), fiberglass septic tank, water tank, air blower, gray water tank, all wiring, all plumbing, fiberglass center floor beam, fiberglass counter, fiberglass shower wall, fiberglass battery housing, toilet, floor, 12- volt deep cycle batteries which are vented to the ground surface, and a HAM radio for two way communications with local first responders and reporting local conditions to the Red Cross as a forward tactical base. 2. Radius underground shelters are listed with the US DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE munitions list (USML) category X(b) and can not be resold for export. 3. Radius shelters meet or exceed standards of THE US HANDBOOK OF NBC WEAPON FUNDAMENTALS AND UNDERGROUND SHELTER ENGINEERING DESIGN STANDARDS, fifth edition, 2002. In addition, these shelters meet or exceed various standards from ASTM, ASME, ANSI, ASHRAE, NFPA, Marine, and UL. 4. Radius underground shelters are pre-engineered fiberglass underground structures designed for 40 psi external pressure plus static loads for earth, snow, etc. 5. Radius underground shelters have no foundation, no electricity, no running water and have a self-contained septic system not connected to local sanitation systems. 6. Radius shelters have their own water tank and not connected to the house water system. The leaching septic tank is designed for shelterists consuming 1 gallon per day for 2 months. The standard height of the leaching holes on the septic tank is 12-24 inches below ground with a leaching area of 2.5 square feet per shelterist for very slow absorption soils. These ratios exceed local building code requirements in proportion to the, volume of water, volume of septic tank, and leaching area. 7. All contractors are required to call “Dig Safe” prior to excavation to confirm water lines, gas lines, telephone lines, sewer lines, electrical lines, etc. 8. Radius underground shelters are a temporary structure designed for emergency use and can be re-deployed to another location.

9. Radius underground shelters are designed to be installed below the water table reaching the ground surface with a safety factor of at least 1.2 meeting ANSI A 28 for hydrostatic pressure without “tie downs”. 10. Radius underground shelters are designed to meet much more than an 8.5 Richter Scale earthquake. 11. Radius underground shelters operate on a 12-volt system. However battery chargers inside the shelter get their power from either solar panels connected to an inverter or a Radius SCUPP (Self-Contained Underground Power Plant). 12. Under the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, U.S. citizens are guaranteed the right to bear arms to provide protection in life threatening situations. Tornadoes, earthquakes, nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare falls under this amendment as life-threatening forces. 13. Under the Third Amendment U.S. citizens are guaranteed the right of self-defense. 14. In view of the above, Radius Underground Shelters do not fall under local building codes. If the local building code enforcement officer becomes involved during or after the installation it is almost always due to a complaining neighbor. Radius recommends that the customer work with local code enforcement agents and share the brochure and/or operator’s manual. 15. In almost all cases, local code enforcement officers do not want to get involved with a temporary structure with no foundation, no electricity, and no running water that was designed for emergency use to help shelterists and local community members in times of emergency. 16. Should a building permit be required to be issued, this permit is “public knowledge” and therefore available to anyone who inquires. This “public declaration” subjects the customer’s shelter to local intruders who may want to break into the shelter during a disaster situation. This threat therefore violates the Second and Third Right amendments under the US Constitution since secrecy is the primary defense for an underground shelter. 17. One solution for both the customer and the local code enforcement agent is to have a building permit issued for an underground water tank, not a disaster or storm shelter. This is a truthful application in affect since the shelter is watertight and is actually an underground water tank with life support equipment that shelterists live in. 18. Once a building permit is issued for an underground disaster shelter, storm shelter, or bomb shelter, the customer has a right to sue the local town to purchase and/or relocate the shelter to another private area not open to public inspection. Should this happen, an attorney specializing in civil rights violations should be employed. To date after 29 years in business, ALL of Radius customers have prevailed in federal courts on this legal basis.

SHELTER FIELD EXPERIENCE

Hurricanes Hugo 09-15-89 During the time of this disaster, Radius produced the ES10 shelter and two reports were called in by customers as to how they were used. During this hurricane, both shelters were at capacity with shelterists. After the disaster, the shelters provided life support for more than three times it design capacity for each shelter. For the general population up on the ground, there were long lines of people who waited many hours to get potable water being distributed by FEMA and the Red Cross. Sanitation facilities did not exist for three days after the disaster and water was extremely limited and in some places not available at all. During the following three weeks after the disaster, up to five families were using the shelter water supply, shower, and toilets in each of the ES10s. Radius did not supply HAM radios at this time but the CB radio and scanner worked. The radios in the ES10’s became the hub for information for the local area due to the distrust of the federal disaster relief services and the greater trust of the news agencies. Hurricane Andrew 08-24-92 During the time of this disaster, reports were called in from two ES10 shelters and two P10 shelters. The shelter use during and after this disaster was almost identical to the use during Hurricane Hugo. This time however, the one P10 shelter had the HAM radio and the customer reported that he had no trouble in communicating with HAM operators locally and many miles away. The mistake that the customer made was putting up the 8 ft. HAM vertical antenna and scanner antenna before the hurricane was over. The flying debris sheared the antennas off during the height of the storm. After the storm, the “back-up antennas” were installed and used for the recovery period after the disaster. The proper procedure would have been to put up the just the scanner antenna intermittently if shelterists need radio reception during the storm. This antenna is much more durable and able to take some flying debris. After the high wind passes, the main antenna which is an 8 ft. vertical could have been put up. 911 Disaster 09-11-01 During the 911 disaster of September of 2001, few Radius customers within 50 miles of NYC had operating landline or cell phone service. Even some shelters located in Connecticut many miles away did not have any operational phone service. Citizens band radios proved useful with only a few customers around the NYC area. Either the range of the CB radio was too limited or too many

people were talking on the most common channel 19. Other customers in CA, TX, MN, FL, WA, IL, DC etc. reported that the CB was operational but had very limited range and was not very helpful. Some reported that the people on the CB network were all truckers and were not all that helpful and just acted rather stupid. Three customers in the NYC area who reported back to Radius said that they were all successful at reaching someone with the HAM radio and found HAM radio operators very helpful and understanding. All three customers also reported that they were unfamiliar with the HAM radio and had to read the manual and spent more than an hour to understand how to use the radio. All three also reported that they were very uncomfortable using the HAM radio at first but became very comfortable after one or two days and in fact became rather dependent on it. After the initial attack, the scanner was continuously monitoring. Most shelterists remained in their shelters for a week after the attack until radio reports confirmed that NBC weapons were not involved in the attack. Hurricane Katrina 08-29-05 and Rita 10-02-05 During Hurricane Katrina and Rita, Radius had a customer in New Orleans who installed his P10 shelter properly in 1997 so the hatch is at least 1 foot above the 100 year flood plain/storm surge. The man, his wife, three children, and one neighbor stayed in their shelter. All of the houses around his shelter were destroyed and/or washed away. The shelter hatch dome was effectively situated in the middle of a lake (which was a community before the flood) with the nearest house over 2000 feet away. This shelterist used the Ham radio to listen to local frequencies and talk with some other radio operators. By doing this he was always informed. After the second week, mandatory evacuations were ordered and law enforcement personnel were authorized to use limited force to remove people. Some federal and local law enforcement officers noticed the 8 ft white radio antenna sticking out of the 5 foot diameter dark green hatch located about 6 inches above water level. They knocked on the hatch and told the shelterists that they were there to rescue them under force and take them to the Superdome! The shelterists had been hearing on the radio all the horrors in the Superdome people were suffering without food, water, toilet, roaming gangs, etc. The shelter owner explained through the one inch diameter spare antenna ports that he had plenty of food, water, toilet, and was quite comfortable sipping wine and listening to Mozart. The agents banged on the hatch with sledge hammers, hatchets, and pry bars, broke the antenna off, and gave up after about 15 minutes. The shelterists removed the broken antenna installed the back-up antenna and continued radio listening and transmitting. After 32 days, the water levels lowered and the shelterists decided to leave the shelter and walk through the muddy streets and started rebuilding their lives. This family chose to be well prepared shelterists, not evacuees. Radius learned that during longer term shelter stays, the battery bank needs to be a larger when a HAM radio is used in the shelter. The battery bank was sized for radio communications in the listening

mode for 2 hours/day for 30 days and transmitting 15 minutes per day for ten days. During this disaster, the shelterists were hearing so many horror stories on the commercial radio frequencies from the area that they needed to talk with other people for emotional reassurance for more than one hour per day. Fortunately, this particular customer had a solar panel to charge the batteries which was employed just after the law enforcement officers broke off the antenna. In Houston, Beaumont, and Port Arthur Texas, during hurricane Rita, Radius received reports from customers in three P10s. All three families entered their shelters one day before the storm hit with their PHOTOS AND FILES and reported living comfortably for three days. The scanner antenna was put up immediately from inside the shelter and many local and national news stations along with government stations were monitored. The radio stations reported people being in their cars for more than 16 hours with no food, water, or toilet. Many cars ran out of fuel because fuel stations were out of fuel. Hotels were all sold out. Even with both lanes of traffic exiting the city, there was mathematically not enough road, fuel, or hotels for more than a very small percentage of people to escape. One shelterist needed medicine and the HAM radio was used to communicate to a ham operator to verify the operating status of the local hospitals or clinics. When the shelter was exited, there was no time wasted in trying to find a hospital, they knew exactly where to go. Two things were proven for sure during this storm: EVACUATION DOES NOT WORK! and UNDERGROUND SHELTERS DO!
