Abstract:
The recommendation is a guide for a builder of different types of hot cell concrete walls against gamma or neutron radiation. It serves also for an introduction to more complicated shielding problems in which, e.g., simultaneous gamma and neutron radiation, high radiation intensitiesand temperature loads have to be taken into account.

The use of concrete structures, both conventionally reinforced and prestressed, for containment has become the prevalent structural approach for large nuclear power applications. . .Because of the wide use of concrete containment structures in the growing nuclear power industry, the need for parallel growth in the technological understanding of these structures is self-evident as a part of the industry obligation to guarantee adquate provision for public safety.

The advantages of prestressed concrete reactor vessels especially in comparison with steel pressure vessels are discussed. The natural economic trend toward large unit sizes of power reactors favors concrete pressure vessel due to possible vessel dismensions in combination with internal pressures, freedom of shape, and increased safety.
