Steel Bricks for Nuclear Plants

post-image
A number of companies are looking at steel-concrete composites as a possible option to build the major structural components of their nuclear facilities, including containments. The GEH-led team will further develop a promising technology known as Steel Bricks, which was developed by a company in Scotland. Steel Bricks has a number of advantages over traditional steel-composite techniques and could significantly reduce the amount of labor required on-site. The steel casings can be rapidly produced in factories during excavation then shipped to the site for faster installation.
