Title: THERMAL TEST ALCOVE HEATED DRIFT GROUND SUPPORT ANALYSIS

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/862236· OSTI ID:862236

The main purpose and objective of this analysis is to analyze the stability of the Thermal Test Facility Heated Drift and to design a ground support system. The stability of the Heated Drift is analyzed considering in situ, seismic, and thermal loading conditions. A ground support system is recommended to provide a stable opening for the Heated Drift. This report summarizes the results of the analyses and provides the details of the recommended ground support system for the Heated Drift. The details of the ground support system are then incorporated into the design output documents for implementation in the field.
