ABSTRACT:
A nuclear reactor fuel assembly comprises a bundle of parallel rods which are transversely spaced by cross-pieces, and is supported by support tubes which extend between, and are fixed at their ends to, two grids. The grids have cells which are aligned with the fuel rods and through which the fuel rods can be withdrawn. The grids are detachably connected to end plates by sockets which are removably engaged in the end plates and cells of the grids.
