Packages for transporting high-risk levels of radioactive material undergo stringent testing. Testing must simulate both normal and accident conditions of transport. The tests can include free-drop testing, puncture testing, thermal testing, and aircraft accident simulations. In this video, the German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing performs a fire exposure simulation test on a package.
