Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute(JNC) and Japan Atomic Power Company (JAPC) launched joint research programs on structural design and three-dimensional seismic isolation technologies,as part of the supporting R&D activities for the feasibility studies on commercialized fast breeder reactor cycle systems. A research project by JAPC under the auspices of the Ministry of Economy,Trade,and Industry (METI) with technical support by JNC is included in this joint study. This report contains the results of the research on the structural design technology. The research scope was identified as (1) Study on Developing Program,(2) Study on 3-dimentional Entire Building Base Isolation System,and (3) Study on Vertical Isolation System for Main Equipment, and the results of this year's studies are summarized as follows.
