Published: 17:14 September 24, 2014 Abu Dhabi: The Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (Enec) has achieved another milestone in the development and complex construction of the UAE’s first nuclear energy plant by pouring the safety concrete for the Reactor Containment Building for Unit 3.   This significant milestone follows the receipt of the Construction Licence from the Federal Authority of Nuclear Regulation (FANR).   More than 1,954 cubic yards of concrete were poured during a concrete pouring ceremony attended by senior Enec and Kepco (Korea Electric Power Corporation) officials, a press release issued by Enec said on Wednesday.   This is the first safety concrete to be poured at Unit 3 and is the first stage in building the third reactor for the UAE’s nuclear programme.   Preparation works have been carried out over a 12-month period to arrive at the stage where the concrete could be poured.   This extensive preparation has included excavation works, lean-concrete to provide a base, waterproofing and reinforcing steel installation.   The safety concrete is the placement of the safety-related concrete that forms part of the lower basement structure of the reactor containment building.   Concrete placements will be a regular and ongoing process after the first placement is completed gulfnews
