Summary of radioactive materials package stowage
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7179139
A tiedown system is necessary to attach a package of radioactive materials to a transport vehicle, be it a truck trailer, railcar, or barge. National and international tiedown regulations are summarized and discussed in this paper. Experimental and analytical evaluations of tiedown loads and responses also are summarized, with particular emphasis on a joint French/Belgian program examining cask and tiedown responses under accident conditions. 14 refs., 9 figs., 2 tabs.
