Experiences by German authority with safety case approach for welding seams as part of SNF transport package containments
- Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) is the responsible authority for the assessment of mechanical and thermal safety as well as quality issues within the licensing procedure for transport casks for radioactive materials. The assessment includes a brittle fracture analysis of all relevant cask components. For cask bodies where a steel bottom is welded to a steel shell, specimens for testing of sufficient fracture resistance can normally not be extracted directly from the welding seam area of the cask. Therefore, a methodology has to be developed to ensure compliance with the safety analysis considerations and the approved design specification. This paper describes such a methodology including brittle fracture analysis and de-termination of required material properties as well as aspects of quality assurance during manufacturing.
