ABSTRACT:
A self-supporting modular radiation attenuation system formed from a plurality of modules stacked on one another in any desired alignment to protect workers from radiation exposure. The modules include a skin assembled with a radiation attenuation medium therein and shaped to mate with one another when assembled. The medium can be lead particles or compressed lead wool. The outer module skin is sufficiently dimensionally stable to support stacking; however, flexible enough to allow the modules to conform to irregular surfaces. The modules can include a particle binder and the system can include framing to support the modules.
