Abstract
A fast neutron nuclear reactor, in which the main vessel and the slab for sealing said vessel are separately suspended on the upper part of the vessel shaft. An outer ferrule of the slab is directly anchored in the vessel shaft by tie rods and is supported by an annular ring embedded in the concrete. The upper edge of the main vessel is welded beneath the ring, the vessel being supported by a second annular ring embedded in the concrete. The upper faces of the slab and the vessel shaft are consequently at the same level, thereby reducing the heights of the vessel shaft and the safety vessel.
