Description

In this report a comparison is made of the rules and practices applied in various countries (Belgium, France, Federal Republic of Germany, United Kingdom and United States of America) in designing PWR plants to resist natural hazards (first part of the report) and hazards associated with human activities (second part). The third part of the report deals with the practices in different countries concerning the protection against accidents of internal origin

Abstract (French)

Cette etude fournit une comparaison des regles et des pratiques de conception des centrales nucleaires PWR, telles qu'elles sont appliquees dans divers pays (Belgique, France, RF d'Allemagne, Royaume-Uni, Etats-Unis), lorsqu'il s'agit de protection contre les agressions naturelles (premiere partie du rapport) et contre les agressions liees aux activites humaines (deuxieme partie).
