About this document
Bolted End-Plate Connections for NPP by ihpeter is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes the design of beam-to-beam bolted end-plate connections for steel platforms in the Angra 2 Nuclear Power Plant in Brazil. The connections were designed using the allowable stress design method, considering loads from seismic conditions and postulated piping ruptures. The paper compares this design to the limit state design method in Eurocode 3 to verify the safety margins between the old and new concepts.
