Abstract :
The current design of the ITER Toroidal Field coils and structures, the main critical design and manufacturing issues, and the status of the procurement arrangements for these components, which will be released to the ITER parties in early 2008 to start the manufacturing contracts, are described. Some qualification and R&D work still required in preparation for the manufacture are also mentioned.
