Our Case Studies Structural Integrity Assessment in Support of the Hot Gas Release Safety Case

Structural Integrity Assessment of IoF Welds in the CO2 Auxiliary Gas Bypass and SSD Pipework in Support of the Hot Gas Release Safety Case. The hot gas release safety case for two of the UK’s nuclear power stations is currently being updated. A review of the scope of that safety case identifies that the structural integrity assessment of specific reactor circuit components, to an IoF (Incredibility of Failure) standard, is outdated and has shortfalls against current company standard and practice.
