The High Density Concrete Blocks by MarShield™ are expertly engineered to provide a secure and leak-free radiation shielding solution for institutional usage. With a density of 150 lb/ft³, these blocks offer superior attenuation of neutrons, photons, and particles, ensuring top-notch protection. The unique sine-wave shapes eliminate straight line seams, guaranteeing a tight fit for enhanced shielding. Easy to install with MarShield™ EZ-PAC, these blocks drastically reduce construction time and do not require time-consuming curing processes. Perfect for constructing radiation shielded structures efficiently and effectively.

Additional Information Additional Information
Standard MarShield™ blocks are 5" x 5" x 10" (127 x 127 x 254 mm). Block are also available in half thicknesses, with a nominal thickness of 2.5 inches (63 mm).Compressive strength is guaranteed to meet 2,800 psi. This product routinely easily surpasses this minimum and is typically on the order of 5,200 psi. Grout materials will have a lesser compressive strength as water content is increased for working properties, but shall not be less than 2,800 psi when mixed on site.Keep Therapy Rooms on One Floor with MarShield™Same primary-to-primary and interior room dimensions as concrete bunkers. MarShield™ rooms fit entirely within a single floor level and do not infringe on floor space above. Unlike concrete, this space can be utilized for services.

Simplified installation process - Craned and placed into position using a minimal-sized crew. No manual handling of individual blocks - No curing time - Ready immediately for the next stage of construction - Shielding is not a critical path element.Manufactured in a controlled factory environment to ensure consistent qualityFabricated using site-specific densities and configurations of MarShield™ modules - guarantees the most efficient shielding design100% Guaranteed attenuationBuild a typical radiotherapy bunker in less than a weekRetains all the benefits of modular block - shielding can be disassembled, redesigned or reusedStackable system - minimal handling of individual modulesInterlock to form a solid homogenous shielding structure.

Easy and quick to, install, remove, and re-install if necessary.MarShield™ offers smaller sizes for lighter weight and easier handling.Construction is not labor intensive, design is flexible, and does not omit hazardous dust emissions during installation.Blocks are environmentally safe to handle and use with no disposal concerns as material is non toxic.Blocks are dry stackedAccelerated depreciationNo concrete curing timeLittle to no steel reinforcement and no formworkSpace saving offer regular concreteEasy to transport and store on worksite, unaffected by weather.
Marshield Ez Pac Dramatically Cut Installation Time Marshield Ez
Individual MarShield™ modules are assembled into stackable packs to form a standard EZPac unit. Simply craned into position EZ-Pac brings added speed, simplicity and efficiency to the construction of any size radiation shielded structure. The larger and more massively shielded the structure, the more EZ-Pac can positively impact the construction process. In proton facilities, EZ-Pac provides the perfect alternative to time-consuming concrete construction by cutting months off the average construction schedule.
