ABSTRACT:
A rack for storing or transporting nuclear fuel assemblies includes a plurality of adjacent prismatic cells having cell walls defining interior fuel assembly storage spaces. The cell walls are formed from a criss-crossed, ordered stack of elongated structural elements of constant cross section, disposed in successive layers and having a long dimension perpendicular to the axis of the cells. Neutrophage sections in tubular form and having a cross section corresponding to that of the cells are disposed against the cell walls within the nuclear fuel assembly storage spaces.
