# Nuclear Reactor Starter Kit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Nuclear Reactor Starter Kit (NRSK) is a set of requirements, procedures,
|
||
|
|
processes, templates, checklists, and data intended as a starting point for
|
||
|
|
a commercial nuclear reactor development and/or deployment program. The
|
||
|
|
objective of the NRSK is to speed up nuclear reactor deployment worldwide. Its
|
||
|
|
approach for doing so includes:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. To identify and document modern best practices for achieving compliance and efficiency
|
||
|
|
2. To allow the nuclear industry to collaborate and share
|
||
|
|
3. To help newcomers to the field ramp up quickly
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All commercial nuclear reactor and fuel processing facilities and their suppliers are
|
||
|
|
required by law to follow a set of rigorous regulations. Doing so doesn't need to be
|
||
|
|
debilitating.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The NRSK began as USA-centric in that it started with fundamental quality requirements
|
||
|
|
from 10 CFR 50 Appendix B and traced down uniformly to specific procedure sections and
|
||
|
|
other needs. However, given some homogeneity in nuclear quality regulatory regimes
|
||
|
|
worldwide, it is expected that this will be readily adaptable to other jurisdictions as
|
||
|
|
well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Scrape GDCs from 10 CFR 50 App A into individual requirements
|
||
|
|
- Scrape each 'shall' statement from 10 CFR 50 App B into individual
|
||
|
|
requirements to drive a traceable QA procedure set
|
||
|
|
- Provide procedures implementing the requirements
|
||
|
|
- Each section of each procedure explicitly tied to a basis explaining why it is
|
||
|
|
the way it is (flowed down from regulatory requirements or elsewhere)
|
||
|
|
- Provide fillable forms and checklists to document progress and compliance
|
||
|
|
- Fillable by human and/or computer (e.g. e-forms)
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
### Install prerequisites
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- python
|
||
|
|
- xelatex
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Install NSRK
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Make a virtual environment:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
python3 -m venv /path/to/venv
|
||
|
|
source /path/to/venv/bin/activate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Clone repo:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone /path/to/nrsk
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Install dependencies:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
pip install -e .[dev]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Building initial documents
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Generate the baseline data files:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
python src/nsrk/regs/load_10cfr50.py
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Build docs via Sphinx using::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd documents
|
||
|
|
make html
|
||
|
|
make latex
|
||
|
|
cd build/latex
|
||
|
|
for f in *.tex; do xelatex $f; done
