  1. Nuclear Journal of Canada, 1987 Vol 1 No. 1, by W.G. Morison, W. J. Penn, K. Hassmann, J.D. Stevenson, K. Elisson, CNS, 1987-03-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This paper provides a summary of the designs and capabilities of principal containment systems associated with BWR, PWR, and PHWR reactors in operation and under construction in the United States, Canada, West Germany, and Sweden. The many conceptual differences in design and modes of operation following accidents are briefly described, with commentary on their evolution and alternatives considered.

  2. Nuclear Journal of Canada, 1987 Vol 1 No. 3, by S.A. Usmani, CNS, 1987-09-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: CANDU-PHW nuclear power plants, whether in Canada or abroad, are thoroughly qualified to resist potential earthquakes because of the great emphasis placed on nuclear safety. CANDU Plants have been seismically qualified dynamically since the mid-1960s, with ever-increasing requirements for each new plant. The approach now employed in Canada for seismic qualification of CANDU equipment and systems is described in this paper.

  3. Nuclear Journal of Canada, 1987 Vol 1 No. 4, by J.F. Lafortune, C.A. McDevitt, and S. Poolpol, CNS, 1987-12-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: CANDU reactor containment buildings are checked for integrity every five years. An on-line test could be performed more often, thereby reducing long-term unavailability of the containment system. A test procedure which accounts for operational factors is proposed.
