ABSTRACT:
A roof shield for a nuclear reactor comprises a normally fixed radially outer portion, a radially inner portion rotatable about a vertical axis, and a connection between the inner and outer portions which permits relative angular movement between the portions without loss of containment, the connection comprising a radially inner wall of the outer portion, an upper portion of the inner wall being so arranged that on upward movement of the inner portion the upper wall portion receives substantially no angular movement, the lower end of the upper portion being at a position below the level of the upper surface of the outer portion.
