| Popis: | An outline of the development of concrete containment vessels in Japan for use in nuclear power plants is described, where the emphasis is laid on the reinforced concrete containment vessel (RCCV) recently developed for the advanced boiling water reactor (ABWR). Also explained are the salient features of concrete containment vessel design which are unique in Japan; namely stringent seismic requirements, thorough verification and novel containment concept. Finally the design principles applied to RCCV are presented along with the design standard. |
