The installation of a key element has been completed at the construction site of the second power unit of the El Dabaa NPP in Egypt. Specialists installed the support truss exactly according to the project inside the concrete shaft.
The main task of the structure is to fix the reactor vessel. The truss is responsible for the stability of the installation and protects the equipment from weight and earthquakes. Engineers noted that safe operation is impossible without it.
The dimensions of the product are impressive. The diameter exceeds 9 meters, the height is 1.3 meters. The weight of the truss reached 88 tons. All equipment was installed without delays or violations.
As a reminder, a thrust ring for the reactor installation of the first power unit arrived at the NPP construction site yesterday. The equipment plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and stability of the reactor's operation. The main function of the thrust ring is to fix the reactor vessel, which prevents its lateral displacements during operation.
