  • Use knowledge and experience of civil/structural engineering analysis principles to inform risk-informed performance-based methods for hazard assessment, including seismic and other hazard fragilities, as informed by probabilistic risk assessment and failure modes effects analysis conducted by other teams.
  • Work with construction teams to evaluate sequencing, cost estimations, material quantity estimates, schedule development, and modularization concepts for development of the design towards the implementation of the Xe-100 plant.
  • Define, manage, and verify the requirements for civil/structural buildings and structures and develop new concepts that can be implemented in a cost-effective and schedule considerate manner and meet the needs of the future customers/users. Ensure that the requirements of later lifecycle stages are addressed at the correct point in the system design (e.g., constructability, testability, reliability, maintainability, safety, flexibility, interoperability, disposal, etc.).
  • Ensure the civil/structural buildings and structures have the capability to perform required functions and satisfy all stated requirements throughout the plant development lifecycle.
  • Identify, define, and manage interfaces between diverse engineering and other teams to advance the multi-discipline design for the Xe-100.
