Abstract
A nuclear reactor plant includes a reactor pressure vessel having a core barrel supported on a cylindrical holding structure fixed in the reactor pressure vessel. The core barrel has a lower part with at least one elastically resilient segment. A projection disposed on the segment engages under the holding structure in such a way that a wedge-like gap is formed between a lower surface of the holding structure and the projection. A wedge is braced in the gap. A method is also provided for mounting the core barrel.
