Phenix Reactor Civil Engineering Technical Problems and Solutions
The Phenix Power Plant in Marcoule now nearing completion will be the first industrial fast-neutron reactor to be built in France. The construction required a large-scale civil engineering site which had to meet a number of specific requirements: waterproof substructures with respect to the underground water table, absence of differential settlements between large-scale works, earthquake resistance, air-tight buildings, special forces to be accommodated, considerable overloads. Some original solutions were adopted: steel lining as parts of the strength of the raft and the outside walls, precase prestressed concrete panels joined by post-tension, and bonding of metal framings to prestressed or conventional structures which are partly precast. These arrangements made it possible to meet the required specifications. In particular, the tests for air-tightness of the reactor container gave full satisfaction.
