Could be handy for an underground shelter.
Without a centre support beam in place, it may not withstand the weight of the soil, with added rainfall or snow buildup. It could sink or cave in,
depending on the soil it was laid in. It would shift over time. Soil is a lot colder underground and concrete cracks in cold temps. Wouldnt be good in
an earthquake. You would need light, ventilation and oxygen. How would you get out?
Maybe they manufacture in ground concrete bunkers specifically for underground. This design wouldn't work.
It must be quite expensive.
It looks to be uncomfortable in certain temps. Concrete is very cold in the winter and it would be an oven in the summer. It shows a window which is
nice but not at all practical for ultimate protection. It kinda of looks to have more dangers than providing safety to me. It' s a potential tomb. A
Its not a good place to hide in. Soldiers are outside and can block your escape. Its like a big Hello we're all in here, in this big thing you see on
our property, the one you had a good aerial shot of as you flew over or google earthed.
It can't be bomb proof if it says it can be taken down by traditional methods of demolitions on structures. They can bust in, or penetrate a hole and
gas you, take you out or keep you there.
Are they hurricane proof? That might be good if the whole neighbourhood chipped in on one to share when a big storm is looming. Except there would be
no radio reception inside concrete walls.
I just wouldn't put much faith in this.
The concrete suppliers are most likely the Elite LaFarge.
