Dungeness A Power Station
Location: Dungeness, TN29, United Kingdom
Service: Structural assessment
Team
Client: BNFL Magnox
Description
Dungeness
A
is
a
legacy
Magnox
power
station
that
was
connected
to
the
National
Grid
in
1965
and
reached
the
end of its life in 2006.
An
assessment
of
the
existing
structures
was
needed
to
comply
with
the
Health
and
Safety
requirements
and
allow
for
the
life
extension
of
the
operation
of
the
nuclear
power
station.
Project Design
Kashec
carried
out
detailed
inspections
and
surveys
and
provided
a
structural
assessment
of
the
existing
structures
for this scheme.
We
carried
out
structural
design
checks
of
the
existing
structures
for
the
purpose
of
extending
the
life
of
the
nuclear power station.
We
designed
the
repair
and
strengthening
works
required
to
prove
safe
operation
of
the
power
station,
including
structural
assessment
of
the
primary
bioshield
walls
and
checked
the
capacity
of
the
existing
pile
cap
(top
slab
of
the
bioshield)
to
withstand
the
increased
operational
requirements.
