Abstract
In order to carry out a radioactivated reactor pressure vessel from a nuclear reactor building of a nuclear power plant, a first opening portion for carrying out the reactor pressure vessel is provided in a roof of the nuclear reactor building. A radiation shield for covering the reactor pressure vessel and shielding radiations is carried into the reactor building through the first opening portion, and installed on a reactor shield wall. A hanger is lowered through the first opening portion and a slit provided on an upper lid of the radiation shield. A portion of a lid of the reactor pressure vessel and a portion of the upper lid of the radiation shield are abutted by hanging up the reactor pressure vessel by the hanger. The reactor pressure vessel and the radiation shield integrated therewith are raised and carried out of the reactor building, whereby the shield can be easily mounted on the large-sized apparatus in a short time and a dose of radiation exposed to a worker when the shield is mounted can be reduced.
