Water Tank Engineering Issues
Design-integration of the following
Requirements
Design Criteria
Codes and Standards including EH&S
Shielding material
Structural material
Adaptability for possible remodeled shield configuration or for R&R of equipment
Fabrication-Vendor surface shops and/or 4850 level fabrication
Material transport-Dependant on final Yates lift configuration
Assembly integration
Maintenance
Liquid Processing
Shielding Material
Liquid
* Type
* Containment
- Module size
- Shine prevention
* Liquid circulation and processing
- Air removal
- Breech containment
Plastic
* Type and implementation method
- Availability
- Solid panels
* Cast
* Built up from thinner Plate or castings
- Sprayed in place
* May be less dense than cast material
* Could be a Toxicity problem in the Module/drift –EH&S issue
Structure
Minimum steel mass
Walls
Vertical and Lateral stability
Roof
Modular
Flexibility for introduction and heavy maintenance of equipment inside the shield
Floor
Support of screeners and Immersion tank
