Chapter 402: Circular structure

When Chen Xin and the group of friends in the survival group designed the
shelter, the ideal solution proposed was to use missile silos or abandoned
military air-raid shelters to transform the shelter and turn the shelter into
a small community.
But this plan was abandoned due to Yan Guo's policies and economic problems,
and everyone turned to build private shelters.
In the original idea, everyone actually had a lot of ideas about the design of
the shelter.
Some of these ideas are very practical, such as planting greenhouses, water
circulation systems, air filtration, and communication facilities, but there
are also some ideas that are relatively unrealistic but can also play some
role.
For example, building a library and carrying a large number of paper books
into the refuge is indeed a good idea. After all, paper books can be stored
longer than electronic products. When reading, just cherish the books. This
book can be read for decades.
This is of course a very practical idea, but it is a pity that before the
disaster, the Internet was developed and people seldom read physical books
anymore. Even the bookstores that were originally all over the streets and
alleys have been extinct for many years. I want to buy physical books. It has
become difficult.
In addition, everyone brought electronic products into the refuge, and the
library was not so necessary, so when Chen Xin built the refuge in the first
place, the library was omitted.
And when they referred to the design of some refuges abroad, they saw that
there were movie theaters, supermarkets, and swimming pools in their refuges.
In fact, everyone had some ideas in their hearts.
It is only limited by the actual situation. Because it is not the community
model originally envisaged, the supermarket is directly useless, and the movie
theater can prepare a home theater in the living room, which is not bad.
As for the large area of the swimming pool, it also consumes precious water
resources. If the weather is too cold, you have to prepare a constant
temperature device for the swimming pool. It is too extravagant and
troublesome. It is better to prepare a big bathtub, and there will be no one.
Really build a swimming pool.
In addition, there are bars that only exist in Mo Qingyan’s house, the
billiard room of a group of friends who originally liked to play billiards in
the city, and the VR experience room of group of friends who play VR. These
only belong to a certain two. The functional facilities owned by an individual
are also in a state of yearning but not available to others.
Although Chen Xin later obtained functional facilities such as fish ponds and
medical rooms for himself through material exchange, he still did not have
some things.
But now, Chen Xin feels that he can build some facilities to improve his
quality of life, so that he can live better and at the same time be more
comfortable.
For example, the frozen Tibetan wine in Mo Qingyan's wine cellar, Chen Xin had
discussed with Mo Qingyan when to get the wine out.
If he could get that batch of wine, Chen Xin felt that he could build a wine
cellar and bar in the refuge.
And even though he got a hot spring bath, he didn’t think there was anything
when he used it alone. Now that there are more people in the refuge, Chen Xin
still feels it is necessary to expand it. At least men and women are
separated, so that you don’t need to use the bath every time. When the time is
divided into men and women.
In addition, since it is necessary to conduct research and manufacture things,
Chen Xin's original workplace feels a bit smaller and should be adjusted.
With the emergence of many ideas of Chen Xin, the refuge on the drawings has
become completely different.
Not only is there a few more spaces, but the overall area is larger, not to
mention. The main part of the refuge that was buried deep underground and has
a drop of tens of meters from the entrance has also been adjusted on the
drawings. The difference between the two is now Only the height of one floor.
This height difference is not a problem in terms of building structure and
protection performance. Originally, Chen Xin buried the main body of the
refuge so deeply mainly to deal with meteorite impacts and various disasters
that followed.
Now that the disaster is over, there is no need to live so underground.
As for the water, electricity, heating and air filtration facilities, they are
separated from the main part of the building, and a separate space is set up
for placement, so that these equipment no longer need to be placed in the main
area of the shelter. Any problems will not affect the residents in the
shelter.
After some adjustments, it can be said that the overall plan of the shelter
has become clearer in terms of functional distinction, and several new
production and living facilities have been added, with more complete
functions.
However, looking at the seemingly messy layout of the shelter, Chen Xin felt
that it should be adjusted.
Although there is no need to worry about the difficulty of construction and
lack of space, the planning of the entire shelter should be made more
reasonable.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin remembered a video that he had watched before about
the use of abandoned missile silos to transform the refuge of the wealthy
people in the Federation. The refuge of the missile silo was really good. UU
reading www. uukanshu.com is very satisfying in terms of comfort and
completeness of functions, and the design is also very reasonable.
So after considering it, Chen Xin decided to readjust the layout of his
refuge.
First of all, the newly added functional areas of the refuge do not need to be
spread out, and they can be stacked. The whole refuge is designed into a
multi-layer structure, and the elevator and stairs are used to go up and down,
which can make the building layout compact and more compact. Convenient and
practical.
After all, in the refuge, going up and down stairs and going through several
corridors are completely different experience.
Moreover, Chen Xin also intends to adjust the current square shelter structure
to a circular shape, imitating the shelter transformed from a missile silo.
This is not to say that Chen Xin is plagiarizing or imitating, but because the
circular shape is relatively more efficient in space utilization and can be
more convenient for layout.
Of course, there is another point that the structural strength of the circular
structure is stronger, and it saves materials. Of course, this is not so much
to Chen Xin.
Therefore, after some adjustments, the entire refuge became a multi-story
cylindrical structure, still connected to the entrance of the refuge through
the corridor, but it is no longer necessary to go down several tens of meters
through the elevator to enter the inside of the refuge.
Instead, you can go directly to the first floor of the main part of the
refuge, and then go down to the lower floor through the elevator or stairs
located in the center of the circular structure.
As for the main part of the refuge, Chen Xin separated the living room,
kitchen and hot spring bathroom that were originally connected to the bedroom
and placed them on other floors separately, while the bedrooms were
concentrated on the first floor to increase the living area.
After this adjustment, everyone can have a single room and a more comfortable
bed instead of sleeping in a high or low bed.
