4S Seismic Base Isolation Design Description - david-smith - 06-04-2012

This report describes the seismic base isolation (SBI) design of the 4S reactor building for
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) review as part of the pre-application process
toward eventual Design Approval (DA). In the expectation that 4S will be constructed in the
U.S., the design is intended to meet codes and regulations in the U.S. Currently, there are no
codes and regulations specifically for the application of seismic base isolation to nuclear power
plants in the U.S. Therefore, the present 4S seismic base isolation design is based not only on
existing U.S. codes and regulations, but also on a Japanese guideline for the application of
seismic base isolation to nuclear power plants.
