The scope includes the manufacturing several prototypes of welded supports of the inboard bundles of the Blanket manifolds. These prototypes will be submitted subsequently (outside of the scope) to destructive and non-destructive examinations and testing.
The welded supports have a modular design and are assembled together by TIG welding. One support type is made with U shaped clamshells and the other is made with L shaped clamshells.
