The purpose of this ECAR is to document compliance with best engineering practices, ANSI/AISC N690 and the seismic requirements of IBC-2015 for the Reflector Support Structure of the MARVEL microreactor.
The MARVEL reactor design requirements are currently listed within TFR-2576. Several MARVEL subsystems are required to be designed to seismic criteria of IBC 2015. This Engineering Analysis (EA) report documents the accelerations that need to be used in an equivalent-static method seismic analysis to satisfy this requirement.
