Section: claims

1. An improved nuclear reactor plant of the type including a primary reactor system circulating a fluid coolant, a containment structure enclosing said primary system, a generally vertical wall disposed between said primary system and said containment forming an annular condenser region between said wall and said containment, and a plurality of lattice structures positioned within said annular region for support of a fusible material, wherein the improvement comprises structure for resiliently affixing each said lattice to said wall including: (a) a horizontally disposed elongated support member spaced from and disposed generally parallel to said wall;  (b) means for rigidly affixing said support member to said wall;  (c) a flexible member disposed generally within said support member;  (d) means affixing said support member to said flexible member for preselected adjustment of the flexibility of said flexible member; and  (e) means for movably coupling said lattice to said flexible member. 2. The plant of claim 1 wherein said means for preselected adjustment comprise two bolts affixing said support member and said flexible member at preselected locations. 3. The plant of claim 1 wherein said elongated support member is a "U"-shaped channel. 4. The plant of claim 1 wherein said flexible member is a hollow tube of generally rectangular cross section. 5. The plant of claim 1 wherein said flexible member comprises a laminated assembly. 6. The plant of claim 1 wherein each said lattice further comprises means for slidably affixing said lattice to an adjacent lattice.
