(a) Packaging (1) Model No.: Model 1 D1G Core Basket-Thermal Shield Shipping and Storage Container (2) Description The Model 1 D1G Core Basket-Thermal Shield (CB-TS) Shipping and Storage Container is a right circular cylinder approximately 115 inches in diameter and either 209 inches long (D1G design including impact limiter assembly) or 216 inches long (D2W design including impact limiter assembly). Access for loading is provided by a removable closure head. The container, consisting of the cylindrical side walls and the bottom end, has a three layer construction with a steel inner vessel approximately eight inches thick covered with approximately nine inches of reinforced concrete which is encased by a 3/8-inch thick outer shell. The CB-TS is secured in place inside the container with an 8-inch thick steel preload ring which is bolted to the inner vessel with 72 high strength bolts.
Closure of the containment vessel is provided by the 6-inch thick steel closure head which is fastened to the inner vessel with 72 high strength bolts. A steel closure ring is welded over the bolts and provides containment. A carbon steel inner impact limiter is welded to the top end of the closure ring. A wood outer impact limiter is bolted to the top plate of the container outer shell.
