ABSTRACT:
A portable self-supporting modular radiation attenuation system formed from a plurality of modules secured to one another in any desired alignment to protect workers from radiation exposure. The modules are hollow containers shaped to mate with one another when secured thereto such as by strapping. The modules can be a single height or stacked and include ports for filling the modules with attenuation fluid when assembled and emptying them when they are to be removed. The modules mate with one another to eliminate radiation paths between the assembled modules. The modules can be formed from fiberglass and can include internal reinforcing to maintain the mating shapes.
