Abstract

In this paper an optimization of concrete container composition, used for storing low and intermediate level radioactive waste from nuclear power plants in Yugoslavia, is presented.

Mechanical properties 37−52 MPa, permeability 1.07. 10−13 - 1.50. 10−11cm2 and leakage rate 3.66. 10−6 - 1.77. 10−4 cm/d for concrete made of commercial materials, were tested.
