Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite all the efforts being put into expanding renewable energy sources, large-scale power stations will be essential as part of a reliable energy supply strategy for a longer period. Given that they are low on CO2 emissions, many countries are moving into or expanding nuclear energy to cover their baseload supply. Building structures required for nuclear plants whose protective function means they are classified as safety-related, have to meet particular construction requirements more stringent than those involved in conventional construction. This book gives a comprehensive overview from approval aspects given by nuclear and construction law, with special attention to the interface between plant and construction engineering, to a building structure classification. All life cycle phases are considered, with the primary focus on execution. Accidental actions on structures, the safety concept and design and fastening systems are exposed to a particular treatment. Selected chapters from the German concrete yearbook are now being published in the new English "Beton-Kalender Series" for the benefit of an international audience. Since it was founded in 1906, the Ernst & Sohn "Beton-Kalender" has been supporting developments in reinforced and prestressed concrete. The aim was to publish a yearbook to reflect progress in "ferro-concrete" structures until - as the book's first editor, Fritz von Emperger (1862-1942), expressed it - the "tempestuous development" in this form of construction came to an end. However, the "Beton-Kalender" quickly became the chosen work of reference for civil and structural engineers, and apart from the years 1945-1950 has been published annually ever since.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides guidance on the planning for decommissioning and on the provision of relevant features at the design and construction stages of nuclear power plants. Most of the information presented is equally applicable, however, to planning and implementing the decommissioning of research reactors and prototype reactors. The report will be useful in the context of backfitting and refurbishment of existing facilities.

Download or read book Engineering Surveys for Industry written by Alojz Kopáčik and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-22 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the translated English version of a text on industrial surveys, originally published in Slovak by SPEKTRUM STU Publishing. This updated version is not only a translation of the original, but also a reviewed, extended version, which reflects up-to-date international standards and regulations. The book covers topics in engineering surveying not available in other publications in this complex form, and addresses the design methodology, data processing and implementation of geodetic measurements under specific conditions to make industrial work environments safer and more efficient. The book begins by introducing readers to these conditions, and then discusses design of maps, geodetic networks and information systems of industrial plants, the usage of cartesian and polar coordinate measuring systems, terrestrial laser scanning technology, as well as measurement of cranes, rotary kilns and special objects of nuclear power plants. The book will be of use to teachers, students, practitioners (e.g. surveyors), quality production managers, equipment designers and mechanical engineers.

Download or read book Management of Nuclear Power Plant Projects written by IAEA and published by International Atomic Energy Agency. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Member States intending to introduce a nuclear power programme will need to pass through several phases during the implementation. Experience shows that careful planning of the objectives, roles, responsibilities, interfaces and tasks to be carried out in different phases of a nuclear project is important for success. This publication presents a harmonized approach that may be used to structure the owner/operator management system and establish and manage nuclear projects and their development activities irrespective of the adopted approach. It has been developed from shared management practices and consolidated experiences provided by nuclear project management specialists through a series of workshops and working groups organized by the IAEA. The resultant publication presents a useful framework for the management of nuclear projects from initiation to closeout and captures international best practices.
