Abstract

The invention relates to a storage device for the transportation/storage of nuclear fuel assemblies, comprising a main structure provided with honeycomb-shaped cells (10) wherein lagging is provided, respectively defining a housing which can receive a nuclear fuel assembly, said individual lagging being formed by a plurality of metal sheets (16) each of which is provided with two longitudinal edges (18). According to the invention, for each honeycomb-shaped cell (10), said individual lagging (12) is provided with at least one metal sheet (16) which can be assembled on the main structure by sliding at least one part of the two longitudinal edges (18) respectively into two longitudinal grooves (20) provided on the main structure of the honeycomb-shaped cell (10).
