      Yeah, but i am wandering about having proper end caps, having it one piece long from the start, and having the crane from the start, that would reduce costs total... And wandering if Linus would be open to build his own bunker that is built a bit more, like 3x this one, having "secret tunnels" connections between them, and having secret exit shaft's and actually having it armored and shielded from radiation and acid/radioactive rain.

    I have a similar but smaller bunker, 8'x27' 10,000 gallon tank buried about 1999. I've spent several tornado and hurricane warning nights and days there. Once hit by lightning while inside it was a loud bang but I was safe not touching any metal. I can't wait to see this finished as mine so far is just temporary shelter from storms. My best advice from experience is constantly maintain ventilation and low humidity. Mold ruins wood quickly and rust never sleeps.

    Idea to heat air on the way in: Use a loooooong coiled tube buried deep in the ground. Not sure how long it would need to be, but the idea is to allow the air enough time to absorb warmth FROM the ground during the winter and release warmth INTO the ground during the summer. So you are using geothermal heating and cooling.

      I think he made a mistake permanently affixing the floor structure this early on. Sure you have tons of storage under there, but it isn't going to be much use if it's hard to put large things under there. For one, he's going to need probably several thousand gallons of water storage, both for clean and dirty water (maybe even a third for drinking water). He also needs to find a place for all of the batteries. It would probably be more beneficial to have them outside the living quarters (ie not under the floor) since they will give off a fair bit of heat. Maybe it will work out and it won't make it crazy hot in there... He also needs to figure out what to do with all of the wiring, waste removal, and air circulation. It would have been a lot easier to go ahead and bury all of the conduit prior to full coverage. Those solar panels (or in all actuality mains power from the grid) need to get in there somehow and have a place to mount in the case of the solar panels.
      Also, waste water is going to be a huge issue for them. Where is it going to go? The will need a lift pump of some sort, and unless they have a septic system, they will need to plumb that into the city sewer, which they probably won't be a huge fan of without significant permitting.
      They also need to work out ventilation and cooling for in the bunker. Heating is easy. It will always be heated as long as it is in use. People, batteries, and electricity use generate a lot of heat. Having a way to cool it is going to be important. There are some air "powered" geothermal options that may be of some use. However those will require a lot of underground piping which would have been a lot easier to do prior to filling the hole. Also, Where is the exhaust/ventilation system going to be. 2 box fans laying over the hole isn't a a long term solution. I only bring it up because that probably should have been addressed while the pipe was exposed. Probably would have been good to make redundancies for these systems, as in a situation where you need to use the bunker failure of life support isn't an option.

    For water storage in a bunker:
    I propose the installation of a substantial underground tank, seamlessly integrated with the bunker. To ensure a continuous water flow and prevent stagnation, connect the tank to the city's water supply. From there, channel the water to the main house, creating a significant, dedicated water source within the city water system. In case of an emergency, the city water supply to the tank can be shut off, providing a reliable reservoir of clean, fresh water. The daily water use in the house will naturally keep the water circulating, eliminating concerns about stagnation.

    • @BobfromHolland
      @BobfromHolland 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      I was thinking something like this as well. Though the cost of installing such a pipe is actually hilariously expensive (we just had our main pipes replaced). It would be really ‘nice’ system to have. But I think a large underfloor reservoir that you just have pump water in and out of every few months or so is probably a better option, with a stabilizer and secondary filter you can keep water down there for quite a long time

    You should have buried earth tubes around the shelter. Then the air intake flows all around the shelter before entering the shelter, raising or lowering the air temp to your in ground 60*. Humid air would condense on the walls and flow downhill into a sump to be filtered and added to your water supply (or pumped outside if contaminated).

    Jerry! All good and well, why would you weld in the floor before you insulated the space under the floor ? You’re giving yourself a huge headache to get the insulation, water and electrical things underneath the welded floor.
    Another issue might be how to evacuate the water after use and save power. You might think of installing the water tanks just above your bunker as insulation and use the power of using it to charge your evacuation pump batteries.
    Just a thought 💭
    Nonetheless a stellar idea!
