Abstract (en)

[origin: US4381735A] A cradle system for a steam generator having four flat diaphragm walls at right-angles to one another comprises a number of cradles. Each cradle has flexural members extending over a portion of the generator periphery which are connected to the diaphragm walls by pressure elements. The construction of the flexural members differs from one cradle to the next. The differences between the construction of successive cradles improve the resistance of the generator to earthquakes, in that forces acting diagonally on the generator are converted into bending loads, which are distributed over large regions of the diaphragm walls.
