ABSTRACT:
In order to ensure a good seal and a good resistance to shocks and corrosion, without increasing their cost, radioactive waste storage containers are completely made from metal fiber-reinforced concrete. This material is used for producing by molding a drum (210) and a cover (212), as well as a keying joint (224) by which the cover is fixed to the drum. At least one dovetail keying groove is formed in the junction zone between the drum and the cover. Advantageously, a filling material of the same nature as that in which is formed the container is injected into the latter, so as to form a homogeneous block.
