Abstract
Nuclear power plant facilities and many other structures need protection against impact by tornado-generated missiles and aircraft. General Design Criterion 4 (8) requires, in part, that structures, systems, and components important to safety be designed to withstand the effects of natural phenomena, such as tornadoes, without the loss of capability to perform their safety functions.Keywords
