Hearing more chatter about the possibility of nuke being used...
Who knows?...but I did find the shelter idea interesting.
Came across some 1950'sCivil Defense plans for different shelters.

I was more looking at it more as a "tornado storm, root cellar, and secure room for supplies...."
The Place does not have an basement or under ground shelter...so was considering to include one in a side hill dug out.
3 sides earth bermed....and secure roof (?)....built inside a "Ag building" (garage)....8X10 ft poured of reinforced block walls and railroad tie sized timber roof.
Secure door (steel).....
If this is stocked and earth bermed, controlling temps above freezing should be a a lot easier that a shed.
Just a FYI.....
In light of this.....as a young man....I can recall 3 or 4 people built underground nuke shelters...In our small town.
Even then, it was noticed that the people who did were affluent enough, to have the money and room to do it.
Problem was...all of them were A wholes......BIG a wholes
Possibility meaning that the only survivors or TEOTWAWKI....won't be who we would want to survive with anyway.
