ABSTRACT:
A storage rack for nuclear fuel assemblies and its manufacturing process.
A storage rack for nuclear fuel assemblies is formed by assembling main plates (12), spacer plates (14), two end plates (16) and a base plate (18), preferably by welding. Once a first main plate (12(1)), a first end plate (16(1)) and the base plate (18) have been mounted on a tooling, a first series of housings (10) is formed by securing a first row of spacer plates (14(1)) to the first main plate (12(1)), and then mounting a second main plate (12(2)). The other rows of housings (10) are obtained in the same manner. The rack is completed by mounting the second end plate.
