Abstract
AbstractTesting was carried out in UK in 1986 to demonstrate the ability of two type B packages designed to pass the 9 m drop test criteria in the IAEA SS6 1985 transport regulations, to provide a high degree of containment even under an extended drop test as might result from a package being released from an aircraft in a mid air incident at high altitude. The tests showed that the contents would be completely contained within the containment vessel of the package. The present paper is presented to document these tests, on packages used for the transport of radioactive materials, which have not been reported elsewhere. These data serve as a useful addition to the literature of extra regulatory testing that has been carried out on an international basis.
