Description
The present paper gives an overview of the best practices and the experience of the French industry, gained over the last 30 years, to implement seismic base isolation systems under nuclear facilities. It contains (a) a brief description of isolated nuclear facilities in France, (b) a point on the specific safety requirements attached to the isolation system, (c) an overview of the analysis methods for the design of the isolation system itself and the supported structures systems and components (SSC) and (c) a presentation of the technical solutions retained for the isolators.
