However, as the HPC design evolves it is necessary for HPC to regularly review & perform necessary modifications to the documents to ensure they reflect the as-built plant and loading conditions.
  • To support closure of GDAF-SI-37, and, to ensure pressure compliance, the Complex SI team is seeking support for the team developing the Post-RC2 Stress Report strategy.
