Fabrication Oversight
Design, fabrication, and construction have begun on new nuclear power plants and will continue over the coming decades. In addition, replacement components continue to be fabricated for operating fleets. Ideally, lessons from past plant construction and operation will be factored into the design, fabrication, and installation of these new units and replacement components. The present generation of design and construction personnel may lack the necessary industry experience to include solutions to known degradation issues associated with former design, fabrication, and construction practices. Structural Integrity Associates, Inc. (SI), with years of nuclear industry experience, and staff who have personally developed solutions to past degradation issues, stands ready to help avoid known problems by performing detailed reviews of new plant and replacement component designs, fabrication plans and records, and installation methods. Areas where third-party review can prove especially valuable include stress analysis, materials selection/specification, fatigue evaluation, corrosion evaluation, welding process oversight, and nondestructive examination.
