Texan maker's underground survival bunkers are real batcaves

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In Cormac McCarthy's The Road, the protagonists are surprised by marauders, but are lucky to find a well-provisioned survival shelter. In Texas, Ron Hubbard has been building underground shelters since 2011. His fallout shelters have found their demand.
Ron Hubbard has been building underground shelters since 2011, but since the pandemic hit he hasn’t been able to keep up with demand. Based outside Dallas, he claims his headquarters is the world’s largest bomb shelter factory. His round structures start off as corrugated culvert pipe, but once finished off resemble an RV, complete with toilet, shower, kitchen, dining table, bunk beds, etc.
For those looking for a more conventional shape, he has a square prefab that begins as sheet metal (reinforced with I-beams and channels), though he warns on his website, “Square shelters can be built out to feel more like a home, but they have a small PSI rating and are only rated for fallout and tornadoes. Round shelters have been around for 100 years and are still in use by the military today.”
He named his company after the 1950s company “Atlas Bomb Shelters”, though his first business was also named Atlas Ornamental Iron, and he’s spent the past 40 years perfecting his iron doors.
l
Hubbard’s customers bury their bugout shelters under homes, sheds, swimming pools or empty fields. While the square shelters can only be buried 3 feet deep, a 10-foot diameter galvanized culvert pipe in 12-gauge can be buried 42 feet deep though they are typically buried 10 feet below the surface.
“Typically if you live in the country in a place like Texas, you do not need a permit,” explains the Atlas website. “If you live in a place like California, you need a permit to dig the hole only. Most people do not pull permits whether it is required or not.”

I remember attending a meeting with an individual whose company made such shelters, and it may have been the person in the video. What I remember most from the meeting was a discussion of the relative cost of building them in Mexico as compared to doing all the work in Texas. Apparently Texas got the nod, which as I recall was the company's preference. I'm glad the company has been so successful !!!

    Did you ever consider creating simulated windows with simulated outdoor scenes so a person does not go crazy from being stuck in the bunker for a long period of time? The outdoor scenes could be managed from a laptop and maybe you could put some sound effects of nature, someone mowing the grass, birds, in the autumn show the leaves changing colors. I am a psychiatric nurse and I would imagine building these psychological stress combat initiatives could help people feel a sense of comfort instead of feeling like they are entombed and it may help multiple people in the bunker together be able to cohabitate without getting on each other's nerves.

    Yeah even vs nukes, unless you live very near a target, a good solid basement is all you need. And if you do life that close, then just move somewhere else. The main argument I see for a bunker would be vs a tornado in the American midwest and southeast. Those happen frequently enough and you get enough warning that a bunker would be useful, basically a comfier version of the shelters people already use. Something big enough that you can live in it while you rebuild your home above after the storm is over.

    @@mr0-fukspoliticallyincorre247 The condescending "buddy" aside: That was a dishonest answer, because almost nobody is living in those things. They're usually added to a main house = EXTRA costs = nothing is saved for "warming and heating" (you probably meant COOLING and heating) and the "big business" is the money you lose. "Privacy" = euphemism for "no windows" and claustrophobia. "Security" is make-belief as long as the valuables and the people are in the main house and nobody is ever living in that cave when there's _no_ apocalypse. Maybe you should just admit that you're fishing for arguments to justify such bunkers only because they're cool and there's some money left to burn. Nothing wrong with that. But then admit that these are only the arguments you tell your wife. If you want a get-away in case of a war, a live-aboard catamaran would probably be the superior solution, because for all that extra money it still has a lot of extra use, even when there's no 'apocalypse' and if there should ever be a war or nuclear attack at least you'd have the possibility to escape the problem (and radiation) to a world region that's not affected. Regarding that "uncertain future": if we're talking USA and the political division of the country, then (without quoting any studies here) many among those preppers are rather part of the problem than the solution; you'd likely find disproportionately more political extremists among them. Solving that political division instead would be the smarter approach. Cheaper, too. I'm saying that as somebody who lives in a save and less paranoid country, outside the USA, with no such division and no serious political enemies.

I'd have a couple suits to shield from radiation and some iodine tablets to protect the thyroid gland from radiation. I'd rather have a bunker to shelter in after a nuclear detonation that to hope the basement of a house will do the trick. NYC even had a PSA recently to educated New Yorkers where suitable shelter can be found. Centers of buildings away from windows, preferably concrete buildings.

    Ok so anyone think of UV lights?? For the vitamin K that we need in our bodies to be healthy? or 4 possibly hydroponically growing food at some point with new LED lighting and no need for soil? I think that would be a good and necessary idea to incorporate into you're prepping plans? I'm not sure how long the human body can survive without the necessary nutrients it gets from small amounts of sun exposure. but one can assume if radiation and whatnot can't get through the bunker walls then whatever things that you need from the great ball of fire in the sky you def won't be getting!

Neither will work. They really need to do some research on what the climate models say. However much food you have is however long you will live, and that's assuming radiation doesn't get you first, or that the bomb isn't exploded nearby, which will vaporize this container. For those other things a basement will work fine, as will this.

    Many factors to consider when designing a bunker, especially when it comes to its interior layout, ventilation, lighting, and sustainability. First and foremost, the layout of the bunker should be efficient and practical. This is especially true for the kitchen area, where you want to make sure there's enough space to move around and prepare food without obstacles. If the current layout isn't working, consider consulting with an interior designer to help you come up with a better design that meets your needs. Another important consideration is ventilation. Since bunkers are typically underground, there's a risk of excess humidity building up, which can lead to mold and other issues. To combat this, it's important to have proper ventilation and air circulation to keep the air fresh and healthy. This is especially important when it comes to the materials used in the bunker, as some products can release moisture or toxins into the air. Speaking of materials, it's also important to consider the sustainability of your bunker. Ideally, you want to use materials that are low-emission and environmentally friendly. This not only helps keep the air clean and healthy, but also reduces your impact on the planet. Another key consideration is lighting. Since bunkers are often underground, there's a lack of natural light, which can disrupt our body's natural rhythms. To combat this, it's important to incorporate artificial lighting that mimics natural light as much as possible. Additionally, incorporating red lighting can help regulate our body's natural clock and improve our sleep quality. When it comes to sustainability, it's also important to consider water and waste management. Incorporating a hydroponic or aquaponic system can help provide fresh produce, while also helping to purify the air and water. Additionally, having a recycling system in place can help reduce waste and make your bunker more self-sufficient. Of course, these are just a few of the many factors to consider when designing a bunker. Ultimately, it's important to consult with experts and do your research to ensure that your bunker meets your needs and is as sustainable and healthy as possible.

    It is not good work. The carbon filter inside the bunker will fill with radioactive particles and the gamma rays will just go through it. And the stairs at the underground door entry will allow fallout to fall in front of the door, if the hatch on top is not closed or damaged. Thus the people inside will die of gamma radiation too. It's fine to survive a tornado, but it's very bad design if you want survive a nuclear war.

If you survive the detonations and live in a bunker for about 3-4 weeks you have a rather good chance to live many years after it on the outside. Only cancer rate will be a little bit higher, but it's still possible to live. Most of the radiation will decay in the first 2 weeks. If you don't have a bunker, your chances are much smaller and the ways to die is much worse.

    Came here to this video after seeing somebody who bought one of these shelters complaining that groundwater was leaking into it and telling people not to buy them but after watching this video it was his fault, should have went with the watertight version because any regular corrugated Culvert is expected to have small leaks in the joints and with groundwater will completely rot out within 20 years especially just sitting corroding. The well that half-inch steel shelter is amazing and will last forever. We remove underground oil tanks some of them being 50 years old and not leaking even with groundwater and those things are not even a quarter inch thick

What's the chances these dooms dayers also squirrel away pressurized radiation suits for each resident? I got news for ya. Unless there's a layer of lead btw the source and you radiation will eventually contaminate steel and concrete.

And if you need to step back up, you pull the lever on the bottom to turn it back to steps. There would also one or two hand rails on the side of the stairway in case the lever stops working or if you lose balance.

    Does the air circulation system have a CO2 sensor hooked up to it so that when CO2 builds up it'll automatically activate, and you just can use the manual activation switch and the crank as manual overrides in case that breaks or otherwise malfunctions? It'd also be nice to have a switch in the decon room to activate the circulation system so that one could cycle the air without going into the bunker, just in case something contaminated the air inside the bunker while you were out, or if you had someone back at the bunker who wasn't responding, which may indicate having slept through an alarm and being unconscious due to CO2 buildup. I think it'd also be nice to have some form of water catchment, a SMALL woodstove (don't need much of one for such a small space, but it'd be nice in the winter months to be able to bring the temperature higher than 55 degrees) and the option for like, a large bathtub. Can't forget that with a properly constructed and stocked shelter your sanity will be the first thing to go, so getting some creature comforts set up would be a good idea. Probably also a good idea to get a sun-lamp too so you can avoid vitamin D deficiency. IDK if any of these are things you've addressed with your previous builds or anything, but they're things I've thought about.

But if you haven't got a strong room full of cash, just a small area where you can ride out the first blasts would be good - in the UK we don't go in for bunkers like the Swiss or the Swedes do, so our official government nuclear war survival advice was to lie a couple of doors across the space under the stairs, and wait there for 2 weeks...gimme a cheap little basement bunker any day...
