Metrology Methodology & Scoring Rubric (2026)
How WakeUp Nuclear evaluates civilian radiological protective equipment and calculates stoichiometric fallout exposure.
100-Point PPE Scoring Weight Allocation
30% — Heavy-Metal Shielding (mmPb): Attenuation against low-energy gamma scatter, X-rays, and beta Bremsstrahlung (0.25mmPb minimum for full points).
30% — Respiratory Overpressure (PAPR P3): Positive internal pressure preventing sweat-induced inward particulate leakage under 30°C+ evacuation stress.
20% — Hermetic Closure & Chemical Barrier: Gas-tight seam integrity (>1300N IPX7) against anhydrous HF gas and sub-micron UO2F2 aerosols.
20% — Verification & Pre-Cleared Custody: Availability of destructive test coupons, off-grid telemetry, and non-ITAR pre-cleared escrow.
