... MAPLE is tiny-just five metres high and one and a half metres in diameter at its widest point. The reactor core, which is loaded with 32 kilograms of uranium fuel, is the size of a large wastepaper basket. The entire reactor assembly rests in a pool of ordinary water, about 9. 5 metres deep and a minimum of two metres across, contained by a two-metre-thick wall of heavy concrete lined with stainless steel. The water is used to cool the fuel, establish the chain reaction that generates the neutrons, and shield researchers from radiation emanating from the core. 1, record 2, English, - MAPLE%20reactor

The approximate weight of a steel cage is 1 1/2 times that of the coal it carries, or about equal to the weight of the coal and the mine cars. Cages are usually designed to take one or two cars per deck and may be single or multi-decked. Where multidecked cages are used, simultaneous or consecutive discharge of decks can be employed. The modern trend is towards consecutive decking with power-operated cage unloading equipment. Cages can be either steel, composite or all-alloy construction. An all-alloy cage is about half the weight of its all-steel equivalent. The cage is suspended from bridle chains which in turn are attached to the cappel of the winding rope. Normally there are two cages in simultaneous operation in the shaft and travelling in opposite directions. 4, record 10, English, - cage

The prop holds about half a gallon of mineral oil and is fitted with a yield valve which relieves the pressure when the load exceeds that for which the prop is set. An hydraulic prop enables quicker setting, uniform initial loading and it can be withdrawn from a remote, safe position.

As steel density is three times greater than that of concrete, the steel box girder deck should thus be half the weight of the concrete deck. 1, record 14, English, - steel%20box%20girder%20deck

La densité de l'acier étant 3 fois supérieure à celle du béton, on devrait donc s'attendre à un tablier caisson acier 2 fois moins lourd que le tablier béton. 1, record 14, French, - tablier%20caisson%20acier

Test for Special Form Radioactive Material.... Bending test : This test is performed only on long slender material with a minimum length of 10 cm and a length to minimum width ratio of not less than 10. The material is rigidly clamped in a horizontal position so that one half of its length protrudes from the face of the clamp. The orientation of the material is such that the package suffers maximum damage when its free end is struck by the flat face of a steel billet. The billet strikes the material so as to produce an impact equivalent to that resulting from a free vertical fall of 1. 4 kg through one metre. 1, record 15, English, - bending%20test

Épreuves pour les matières radioactives sous forme spéciale. [...] Épreuve de pliage. Cette épreuve n'est applicable qu'à des matières minces et longues dont la longueur minimale est de 10 cm et dont le rapport entre la longueur et la largeur minimales n'est pas inférieur à 10. Les matières sont serrées rigidement dans un étau, en position horizontale, de manière que la moitié de leur longueur dépasse des mors de l'étau. Elles sont orientées de telle sorte qu'elles subissent le plus de dommages possibles lorsque leur extrémité libre est frappée avec la face plane d'une barre d'acier. La barre frappe les matières de manière à produire un choc équivalent à celui que provoquerait un poids de 1,4 kg tombant en chute libre d'une hauteur d'un mètre. 1, record 15, French, - %C3%A9preuve%20de%20pliage
