Seismic Testing and Verification for 30 Tons Scaled-Down Model of Reinforced Concrete Containment Vessel

Abstract:

The scaled-down model of Reinforced Concrete Containment Vessel (RCCV) for Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR) building, whose weight is 30 tons, is the biggest seismic test in Taiwan, until now. The design and stress analysis of the testing model is following the ASME-359 code. This experimental test can be the basis to check whether the scaled-down RCCV is safe or not when it undergoes the fictitious seismic loading came from shaking table. The other object of this test is getting the experimental data of dynamic responses, such as accelerations and displacements, to verify the validity of numerical model.
