Steel or cement. Even at ground zero they found a steel bank safe still standing where the bank had been. Most of the destruction was from the fire storm after the bombs were dropped.

The documentary called Hiroshima is a harrowing film. We watched it in 11th grade. A very real way to wake up people on why we don't want a war using atomic weapons.
