Description

At present there is no uniform policy for the acceptance of prestressing systems for nuclear work. This paper examines some of the more important national requirements, from the point of view of the system manufacturer, and shows where these cause difficulties and impose arbitrary modifications to established systems. A possible basis is proposed for an international set of acceptance tests because it is considered that rationalisation is overdue. (author)
