CSA Standards

This Standard provides requirements for the design, testing, installation, and qualification of equipment for the display of nuclear power plant safety functions in the event of an accident.

This Standard defines the processes and requirements for performing seismic qualification by testing and presents the test methods that may be used for the seismic qualification of the nuclear power plant structures, systems, and components (SSCs). Seismic qualification by testing is typically used for SSCs that will be performing both an active function and that

This Standard specifies the requirements, criteria, methods of analysis, and design procedures for a) determining the design response spectra and ground motion time-histories to be used in the analysis; b) establishing design criteria for structures, systems and components (SSCs), and supports that require seismic qualification; and c) performing seismic analyses, including the effects of the

This Standard provides requirements for the materials used for concrete containment structures, which include, but are not limited to, the following structural and non-structural elements: a) concrete; b) reinforcement (pre-stressed and non-pre-stressed); c) steel (e.g., liner, embedded parts, anchors); d) non-metallic liners and coating systems; and e) joint sealants. Note: For material requirements for safety-related

This Standard provides the general requirements used in the design, construction, testing,and commissioning of concrete containment structures for CANDU nuclear power plants designated as class containment and is directed to the owners, designers, manufacturers,fabricators, and constructors of the concrete components and parts. Note: The requirements of the N287 Series of CSA Standards generally exceed the
