In order to evaluate the applicability of steel plate concrete structure (SCCV) to primary containment vessel, a series of experimental and analytical examinations on earthquake resistance and pressure tightness of SCCV has been carried for 9 years as reported in the previous report (1)-(15). In this report, the applicability of SCCV is evaluated based on the previously reported results.
