1 Introduction

1.1 Project overview

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (also referred to here as LBNL, or Berkeley Lab or

University) is a federally funded research and development center that is operated and managed by the Regents of the University of California (UC) for the United States Department of Energy

(DOE) under a prime contract between UC and DOE. LBNL conducts unclassified research to carry out its mission of reaching a deeper understanding of our world and delivering science-based solutions to problems of national significance.

Within LBNL is a soft Xray Accelerator known as the Advanced Light Source (ALS) that is currently undergoing a significant upgrade. The upgraded accelerator includes an accumulator ring (AR) and a storage ring (SR) that are housed within a structural concrete tunnel. To ensure researchers and other lab personnel are protected from any radiation released by the AR/SR, additional lead shielding is required.

1.2 Description of items

The objective of the project is to fabricate and deliver the new steel encased lead shielding panels required to address the radiation safety requirements of the ALS. This includes review of the current design for efficiency and feasibility, shop drawing development and submittal, procurement of raw materials, fabrication of the steel casings, assembly of the lead shielding, storing of materials prior to shipment, and logistics for transportation of finished lead shielding panels to the LBNL site, provide lead specifications and quality control process for LBNL to review and approve. Installation by others

71 new lead shielding panels are required to upgrade the current shielding tunnel for the AR

(accumulator ring) and SR (storage ring) at the ALS at LBNL. Each panel is rectangular in shape, but with unique dimensions (including height, length, and thickness). Each panel includes a 3/8” steel case, that has lifting lug attachment points, wall attachment points, and Lead retaining studs incorporated into the design.

The panels range in approximate weight from 1,400 lbs to 12,500 lbs. The exact weight of each panel will be determined by the Subcontractor.

The Lead shields are divided into two batches, 34 lead shielding panels in batch one (Including all panels for Sectors 01 through 06, 1S1.2W-LP to 6S2.2W-LP) and 38 Lead Shielding Panels in batch two (including all panels for Sectors 07 through 12, 7S1.1LD-LP to 12T2.1W2-LP).

The installation of the panels in the ALS building at LBNL will be performed by others and is excluded from this scope of work.
