First floor

-features of the first floor and the reasons for their existence are as follows 

Stairways Stairways in the northeast and southeast corners are for traffic between the first floor and basement stairways in the northwest and southwest corners are for traffic between all floor levels. This number of stairways is necessary not only for convenience but also for safety considerations. The stairways are encased to provide fire wall protection. A one-way escape door is located on the first floor level of each stairwell. The southwest stairwell contains the main entrance door into the Reactor Building. A similar setup, is provided in the northwest stairwell however, this door should be normally locked so that only one screening point is necessary for personnel entering the Reactor Building- 

Truck doors Two truck doors are provided, one in the.south wall west of the north south building centerline and one. -in the north wall, east of the same centerline. These two are necessary for ease of vehicle movement, particu-Ijsrly in the event, that the quarter-mile beam experiment. is installed. The doors are made sufficiently large to allow a highway-size tractor- trailer unit 

Elevators. For convenience of operators and visitors, a passenger elevator operates between the basement and control room levels with outlets on all floors. A 10 ton hydraulically operated freight elevator operates between the first floor and basement, and has an intermediate stop at the Reactor Building wing basement level. This freight elevator provides for the normal movement of supplies and equipment between floors. The elevator has a lO-- by 14-ft platform it. is capable of handling a 70ff0-lb-capacity electric forklift truck with.a fully loaded.skid on the. forks.. 

Removable floor slabs The first floor has two 8- by 8-ft removable floor slabs, one located directly over the canal, and the other over a clear area, of the basement. The first permits heavy coffins.to be placed into or taken from the canal, while the second allows heavil.y shielded apparatus to be placed onto or taken from the basement floor.

Locatjonfsl - For each hazardous substance that you are reporting, provide a brief narrative description of its onsite location, such as, "first floor stockroom at rear of workshop", "warehouse", "tank farm", "garage", "storage area for flammables, behind garage". If the substance is found commonly throughout the site or a majority of the site area, you may report it as "ubiquitous" or "plant-wide".

The first floor of the atom can hold only two electrons. When two hydrogen atoms, each with one electron, come together, each nucleus is in effect sharing two electrons, and as far as each nucleus is concerned, its shell is filled. The helium atom already contains two electrons its first floor is filled. That is why helium is unreactive. Wlien two helium atoms collide, rather than stick together, they simply bounce apart. (.See Table 1.)... 

One research laboratory was located on the second floor of a building in which a diaper laundry occupied the first floor. The laundry equipment would periodically send veritable shock waves through the building, making many laboratory operations impossible for a short while. The laboratory workers referred to these annoying incidents as the times when the laundry dropped its load. ...

Oxygen has eight electrons, two on the ground floor and six on the first. There remain two empty rooms on the first floor, which can house at most eight electrons. Oxygen is therefore ready to accept two further tenants from elsewhere. For example, it is ready to share the electrons of two hydrogen atoms. The result is the water molecule H2O. It takes two hydrogen atoms by...

Hart s Shrub Oak house underwent frequent remodeling and finally became the Hart Library, in front of which I now sit. Today, nothing of the original 1920 library walls remains. All that exists of Hart himself is an old portrait now hanging on the first floor in the paperback section. He and his wife are buried in the Methodist Churchyard in Shrub Oak. Hart loved his house and the land, and wrote poetry.

The concentrating parabola has a focal length of 18 motel s, is 40 meters high and 54 meters wide, and the focal axis is 13 meters above the first floor. The parabola consists of 9,500 initially flat glass mirrors that were mechanically curved and adjusted to provide a solar image of minimum diameter at the focal point Almost two years were required to accomplish these two precise adjustments which were completed on I... 

If the rate at which people move from the first floor to the second equals the rate at which people move from the second floor to the first, the number of people on each floor remains constant, and the two populations are in dynamic equilibrium. 

All samples shown were for basement air. Several ring 1 homes were analyzed for chemicals on the first floor. Only in the case of one home were measurable levels found on the first floor. Chemical levels detected in basements of homes beyond the first ring were sharply lower than for homes in ring 1.
