In a pressure tight steel container for housing a nuclear reactor of the type wherein the container is surrounded by a biological shield wall, the container is supported by a relatively flexible structure, and a protective wall is provided along the inner surface of the container for receiving the jet stream and the percussive forces of bodies flying about at high speeds in the container as a result of the existence of emergency conditions. The outer surface of the container is spaced from the biological shield wall by an annular space sufficient to permit ready access to the outer surface of the container.
