(54) | Kit for assembling a building structure resistant to overhead ordinance detonations |
(57) Kits for assembling a protective building structure that is resistant to and protects
occupants from overhead ordinance detonations, are provided. The kits comprise modular
parts for assembling an overhead protective building structure that can be packaged
for delivery and assembly in a field location. The kits have self-contained mechanisms
for facilitating assembly of the kits with limited construction resources. A pivoting
support frame permits the panel members to pivot from a vertical position for filling
the panel members with fill material, to a horizontal position on the support frame,
to thereby form the overhead cover. Self-raising means are also included in the kits
to lift and vertically position the overhead cover along supporting stanchions positioned
at each end of the support frame.
