Description

The ideas and concepts for the Future Circular Collider have further progressed in 2015. Baseline parameters for the FCC are known and ideas in different fields are converging to viable options. Radiation Protection studies accompany the discussions on civil engineering layout, HVAC aspects and material optimisation in the different parts of the FCC study. The talk will provide the current status of the studies performed and recommendations given on various radiation protection aspects. It will address the crucial challenges and raise awareness of accelerator and experiment designers for optimal access and working conditions for personnel and the importance for material optimisation at this stage of the project.
