e SL-2 Round One uestions 492.15 Provide justification for using the Macbeth correlation in the CHF (15.0) correlation for Chapter 15 transients. Do the applicability ranges of the correlation cover all expected conditions?
~Res onse:
The Macbeth correlation (Ref. I) is used only for the determination of DNBR during the post-trip return to power portion of the main steam line break (NSLB) transients presented in Appendix 15A of the FSAR.
('lots of DNBR versus time for these transients have been furnished in the Response to guestion 440.14). For all other Chapter 15 tran-sients the CE-I correlation is used in the TORC code (References 2 and 3) to calculate DNBR. For determination of DNBR during the post-trip return to power portion of NSLB transients the methods applied by Lee (Ref. 4) are employed in order to use the thcbeth correlation for rod bundles to predict burnout as a function of axial height, accounting for non-uniform axial heat flux.
Macbeth demonstrated that five parameters were necessary for correlation
= of critical heat flux (CHF) data for rod bundles with vertical upf low:
mass channel flux, G; inlet subcooling, hH; pressure, P; heated diameter, dh, and lenght, 1. However the channel length is eliminated from the correlation by application of Lee's method to predict CIIF as a function of axial height. To determine applicability, the height at which minimum DNBR occurs is compared with the channel lengths for the experiments from which Macbeth drew his data.
The data used for the Macbeth rod bundle correlations with vertical upflow has a range of'alues for G of from 0.18 to 4.1 million lbm/hr ft2 (Ref. 5). The uniformity of the correlation of the CHF data for rod bundles as a function of G over this range and the data and correlations for CHF in heated tubes give confidence to extend the lower end of the range of applicability of the rod bundle correlation to at least 0.09x 106 Ibm/hr ft~. (The Macbeth correlations for heated tubes are based on data for 0.01 < G x 10 -6 < 7.8 lbm/hr ft2.)
The range of values of hH upon which the rod bundle correlations is based is -150 < hH < 380 BTU/lbm (Ref. 5). The rod bundles from which the CHF data was obtained had values of dh between 0.113 and 0.902 inches and lengths of. from 17 to 72 inches (Ref. 1).
The data used for the rod bundle correlations is all for 1000 psia.
However application of Macbeth's correlations for heated tubes indi-cates that using the correlation developed for 1000 psia at lower pressures produces values for DNBR which are conservative. Further, other correlations for rod bundles, such as those of Bowring (Ref. 6),
yield a variation in DNBR of the order of 10$ as pressure varies from 500 to 1000 psia for the range of G and hH of interest. This is of the same order as the uncertainty in Macbeth's correlation and is much smaIler than the margin to DNB calculated for the post-trip return to power portion of the MSLB transients presented in the FSAR.
Table 492.15 suomerizes the above applicability ranges and compares them with the values of'he parameters obtained for the MSLB transients presented in Appendix 15A of the FSAR. The applicability ranges cover all the expected conditions for the post-trip return to power portion of these MSLB transients.

High burnup performance experience, as described in Subsection 'ias p ovided evidence that the fuel will perform satisfactorily under design conditions. The current core design bases do not include a specific re-quirement for testing of irradiated fuel rods. However, the fuel assembly design alloi:s disassembly and reassembly to facilitate such inspections, should the need arise.
A fuel rod irradiation program has been developed to.evaluate the perform-ance of fuel rod designed for use in the 16 x 16 fuel assembly. The pro-gram includes the irradiation of six standard 16 x 16 assemblies, two each for 1, 2, and 3 cycles, respectively, n the Arkansas Nuclear One-Unit 2 reactor (ANO-2). Each ssembly will contain a minimum of 50 precharacter-ized, removabl rods distributec within the assembly to obtain a spectrum of exposure levels for evaluation purposes in the interim and terminal examinations. Interim examination of all six assemblies is planned dur'ng refueling shutdowns after each cycle.
Th'e ANO-2 fuel rcd and specific compcnents of the fuel rcds have received a detailed pre-characterization. The program calls for substantial clad-
- ding characterization to include m chanical properties, texture, hydride orientation and out of reactor low strain rate behavior. In addition to the ID and OD dii ensional data normally obtained on the clad tubing material, a minimum of 300 fuel 'rods will be measured to obtain as loaded dimensions. Suf ficient fuel rods will be profiled to obtain diameter and ovality measurements such that changes in these parameters can be tracked by similar measurements during interim inspections. Also, a random selec-tion of appro..im"tely 100 UO pellets from each lot per. batch used vill be characterized dimensionality and the density distribution vill be deter-mined. About one half of these pellets will be placed in known axial locaticns in selected fuel rods wliile the remainder will be set aside as archives.

Tne six 16 x 16 asseiablies with character-ized rods will be removed from the reactcr at each refueiing and moved to the spent fuel pool for leak testing (if failed fuel is in the core) and for visua1. inspection. The length of the a"sembly and peripheral rod" will be measured. During the shutdown, a target of 20 pre-charactPrized rod" per batch will he scheduled for examination and mPasurement. At some time

A post irradiation fuel surveillan'ce program for 54lucre 4+/ is planned.
,This program shall consist of a visual inspection of a minimum of six .irradi-ated assemblies prior to replacement of the Reactor Vessel Head at each of the first three refueling outages. The six assemblies inspected shall con-sist of two assemblies of 'each fuel type and will be from core locations which are non adjacent. Visual inspections shall consist of viewing the top and sides of each fuel assembly via an underwater TV Camera or Periscope.
The visual inspection will include observation with special attention to gross problems involving cladding defects, spacer grid damage and other major structural abnormalities. No special measurement devices for these affects are intended to be provided for'his visual inspection.
If major abnormalities are detected during this visual inspection or if plant instrumentation indicates gross fuel failures," the fuel vendor will be in-formed and further inspections shall be performed. Depending on the'ature of the observed condition, further examination could include fuel sipping, single rod examination, and other examinations. The 16 x 16 fuel design en- .
ab)es reconstitution. Individual fuel rods and other structural components may be examined and replaced, if required. Under unusual circumstances, de-structive examination of a fuel rod may be required but this would not be accomplished on site or during the refueling outage.
The NRC shall be contacted regarding gross fuel failure detec'ted by plant in-
'strumentation or major abnormalities observed during the post irradiation in-
.spections described above.
The post fuel irradiation fuel surveillance program shall be continued the first three cycles of operation of Sf:Lu;.el';$ ~, Six assemblies fol-'owing shall be visually inspected during each refueling outage, not necessarily prior to replacement of the reactor vessel head. The visual inspection shall consist. of viewing the tops and sides of each fuel assembly via an underwater TV camera or periscope. The visual inspection will include obser-vation with special attention to gross problems involving .cladding defects, spacer grid damage, and other major structural abnormalities. The NRC will be notified of major abnormalities noted as a result of these inspection activities.

The. following CEA ejection cases were requested t , b an lj'zed without offsite I
power: ~
(1) CEA ejection with control element h u i g upture and subsequent rapid blowdown into containment.
II (2) CEA ejection where the control element housing does not rupture and the primary system leaks to the secondary system through leaks in the steam generator tubes.-
The analysis of a CEA ejection with a rapid blowdown into containment is pre-sented in Section 15.4.5.1. This analysis also assumed a failure of the 4.16 KY bus to fast transfer following turbine trip. The main impact of this is the assumption that the condenser is unavailable for one hour. The analysis of a CEA ejection where the housing does not rupture is discussed in this'section.
This case was analyzed without offsite power.

NI On the basis of experience, thehT value of 100'F used in the analysis is larger than any hT that might be expected during plant operation. During RCS cooldown using the shutdown cooling sy'tem, coolant circulation with the reactor coolant pumps serves to cool the steam generator to keep the temperature difference between the reactor vessel and the steam generator minimal.
a Steam dumps are used to reduce steam generator secondary fluid to below 220'F. If the steam generator were held at 220'F and the reactor vessel were cooled to the refuelinq temperature, the steam generator - reactor vessel AT would still be less than 'l00'F. In fact, procedures will direct the operator to maintain the h,T below approximately 20 F.
Q LTOP transients have not been analyzed for the simultaneous startup.
of more than one reactor coolant pump (RCP). Such operation is procedurally .precluded, since the ooerator starts only one RCP at a time and a second RCP is not started until system pressure is stabilized. Additionally, there is an LTOP transient alarm that should indicate that a pressure transient is occurring and that a second RCP should 'not be started.
The results of the analyses provided in Figures 5.2-24 and 5.2-25 show that the use of the PORYs provide sufficient pressure relief capacity to mitigate the most limiting LTOP events identified above.

r For the Shutdown Cooling Mode, the LPSI pump suction is aligned to the hot leg of the RCS. The flow Crom the discharge side of the pump goes into the cold leg of the RCS. Due to this arrangement, the LPSI pump would not be deadheaded by an RCS pressure surge. Relief valves in the shutdown cooling suction lines prevent isolation of the line for any credible overpressure events.
There is no single failure that would cause both of the LPSI pumps to be aligned to the dry sump during the Shutdown Cooling Mode. The St. Lucie Unit 2 has a num-ber of features incorporated in its design which pre-cludes this.
For thy LPSX pumps to be aligned .in the accident confi-guration sited in the question, the water supply from the RCS would have to be cut off and the path from the containment sump to the LPSX pumps, would hive to be open. An inadvertant RAS wo>>ld open-the isolation valves from the containment sump (I-MV-07-2 A and B).
However, an RAS also turns off the LPSI pumps and does not close the SDC suction isolation valves. Valves V-3444 and V-3432, one in each line, are closed during shutdown cooling and must bc opened to align the LPSX pumps to a dry sump.

{15.A) For the large steam line break (SLB) events presented in Apoendix 15A the concern is the possibiliby of degradation in fuel performance during potential post-trip return to power. Pre-trip fuel degradation
- . for SLB events is addressed in Section 15.1. (See the response to guestion 440.80(a)). Radiological releases for SLB events are bounded by the LF-3 event to be. presented in Section 15.1.5.1. There is no
('g approach to the 110" of design pressure criterion during SLB events.
Of the possible single active component failures f'r the St. Lucie 2 Plant, only two can imoact the potential for post-trip return to power r
and consequent possible degradation in fuel performance: (a) 're of a main steam isolation valve to close on actuation of in steam isolation signal {MSIV fa(lllure) and (h) failure of
'I high pressure safety injection (HPSI) pump or failure of one PSI pump and one low pressure safety injection (LPS!) pump (the ter case being possible only if offsite power is unavailable). he only significant impact
'hese single failures can have is on tential post-trip degradation in fuel performance. Table 440e9 -1 shows the maximum post-trip reactivities, core average powers, and core average heat fluxes with an assumed MSIV failure and with an assumed HPSI or HPSI pump ft plus'LPSI pump failure, as appropriate, for 6.36 porn~ ~m SLBs.
Cases are presented for SLBs initiated at full power and at zero power, with and without loss of offsite power.
For cases with loss of offsite power, failure of one HPSI pump plus one LPSI pump is seen to present the greatest potential for post-trip degradation in fuel performance. Therefore this was the single failure assumed for the cases with loss of offsite power which are presented in Appendix 15A of the FSAR.
For cases with offsite power available (no reactor 'coolant pump trip) the impact of the two possible single failures is nearly identical.
The analyses presented in Appendix 15A of the FSAR assumed a MSIV failure for cases with offsite power available since this failure yields slighl ty higher core average heat fluxes. No conclusions would be changed by assuming, instead, one HPSI pump failure for these cases.

440.41 Identify the plant operating conditions under which certain automatic safety injection signals are blocked to preclude unwanted actuation of these systems.
Describe the alarms available to alert the operator to a failure in the primary or secondar s stem during this phase of operation and the time available to mitigate the consequences of such an accident.
~Res onse While the plant is in power operation, the safety injection signals may not be blocked. During the interim phase, while RCS pressure is being reduced to re-fueling mode, it becomes necessary to partially block the SIAS.
A safety injection block is provided to permit shutdown depressurization of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) without initiating safety injection. This block is accomplished manually after pressurizer pressure has been reduced and a per-missive signal is generated by the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System.
This blocking procedure is under strict administrative control; block and block permissive is a'nnunciated and indicated in the control room. It is not possible to block above 'a preset pressure: if the system is blocked and pressure rises above that point, the block is automatically removed. The block circuit com-plies with the single failure criterion in IEEE 279-1971.
The SIAS block removes only the pressurizer pressure signal from the SIAS trip logic. The high containment pressure transmitters still remain in direct con-nection with the trip logic. Should an event occur whereby the containment pressure is sufficiently raised, high containment pressure alarms sound on RTG B-206 and the SIAS is initiated automatically, regardless of the pressurizer signal block.
The Technical Specifications will permit blockage of'he SIAS in plant modes 5 and 6, while the shutdown cooling system is in operation. In these modes pro-tection against overpressurization of the Reactor Coolant and Shutdown Cooling System, 'due to a spurious actuation of the HPSI, is provided by relief valves V-3666 and Y-3667 in the SDC suction lines. FSAR Tables 7.5-1 and 10.4-5 in-dicates the display instrumentation and their alarms~4:~h<available to the operator to establish primary and secondary system conditions.
~C During cold shutdown or revue ing modes ~ and 6) should a loss of coolant occur, level guages in the containment and cavity summand the safeguards room sump with alarms would alert the operator of suchan accident. During the plant cooldown, operator action is required to continually monitor the S.G. secondary water level and feedwater flow. Because of this the operator is a&are of the secondary system conditions.
During a refueling, for specific maintenance tasks, it is expected that some instrumentation will be inoperable. Administrative procedures will assure that the operator will be able to assess the status of the primary and secondary sys-ems for the specific situations.
Ho FSAR change is required.
440.44 A reported event has raised a question related to the conservatism of NPSH calculations with respect to whether the absolute minimum avail-able NPSH has been taken by the staff as a fixed number supplied through the applicant by either the architect engineer or the pump "-
manufacturer. Since a number of methods exist and the method used can affect the suitability or unsuitability of a particular pump, it is requested that the basis on which the required NPSH was de-termined be branded (i.e., test, Hydraulic Institute Standards) for all the ECCS pumps including the testing inaccuracies be provided.
~Res 'onse The required NPSH of the St. Lucie Unit 2 ECCS pumps is confirmed by test. The high pressure safety injection pumps are supplied by Bingham-Hillamette Co.
These pumps are tested in accordance with the ASNE Power pest Code 8.2 (cen-trifugal pumps).

Provide a conservative demonstration for Pressurizer Manway Nuts (Number C-5364) and Pressurizer tlanway Studs {Number C-5365) that the material when tested .at 40"F or lower will meet or exceed 25 mils lateral expansion. Lower bound CVN curves for SA-193 Gl'. 8-7 and SA-540 Gr. B-24 materials are considered acceptable methods for extrapolating the CVN impact data from the test tem-perature to 40'F. In addition, demonstrate that the metallurgical

'he metallurgical condition of the SL-2 material. This can be ac-complished by providing the heat treatment informa'tion for the material used to generate the lower bound curves and for SL-2 Pressurizer Hanway Studs and Nuts.
Reply: A. CVN data for SA-193 Gr. B-7 are given in Table 251.g-l.

't 10'F, two specimens met the mils lateral expansion require-ment, 25 mils, while one. did not. Since two specimens exhibited over 50% shear, this is the center of the temperature range in which the toughness increases rapidly with temperature. By testing at-a temperature 30'F higher.- 40'F, C-E expects that all: specimens would exhibit 75-100% shear. From the data pre-sented in Table 251.8-1, C-E expects in excess of 25 mils lateral expansion at 75K shear.
Heat treatment for code no. 5364 is given below; heat treatment data for Table 251.g-l is given in Table 251.$ -2. C-E feels that each of these heat treatments produce similar metallurgical structures in this alloy.

'The surveillance capsule withdrawal schedule for St. Lucie Unit 2 was established in accordance with 10CFR50, Appendix H, paragraph II.C.3(b). The first capsu'le is scheduled for wittidrawal when the encapsulated base metal
'aterial is conservatively estimated to exhibit a reference temperature shift of 50'F. This is predicted to occur after approximately one effective full power year (EFPY) which corresponds i:o a neutron fluence of about 1.3 x 1018n/cm2 (E>ltleV). The second and third capsules are scheduled for withdrawal after 12 and 24 EFPY, respectively.
A significant advantage will result from withdrawal of the first sur-veillance capsule after 1 EFPY, because it will provide an early indication of the validity of the reactor vessel fluence and reference temperature shift predictions. used to set the vessel operating limits. Actual dosimetry and shift measurements will then be available for projecting radiation induced changes in the tougnness properties of the vessel beltline materials.
\
This withdrawal schedule is consistent with the objectives of ASTH E185-79 (Standard Practice f'r Conducting Surveil'lance Tests for Light-Water Cooled Nuclear Power Reactor Vessels) and 10CFR50, Appendix H: - ". . . to verify the

sl 420e3 tLualification of Contro~lS stems IE Information Notice 79-22 Operating reactor licensees were informed by IE Information Notice 79-22, issued September 19, 1979, that certain non-safety grade or control equipment, if subjected to the adverse environment of. a
~
high energy line break, could impact the safety analyses and the adequacy of the protection functions performed by the safety grade equipment. In the attachment to this Enclosure there is a copy of IE Information Notice 79-22, and reprinted copies of an August 30, 1979 Westinghouse letter and a September 10, 1979 Public Service Electric and Gas Company letter which addresses this matter. Operating Reactor licensees conducted reviews to determine whether such problems could exist at operating facilities.
We are concerned'that a similar potential may exist at light water facilities now under construction. You are, therefore, requested to perform a review to determine what, if any, design changes or operator actions would be necessary to assure that high energy line breaks will. not cause control system failures to complicate the event beyond your FSAR analysis. Provide the results of your reviews including all identified problems and the manner in which you have resolved them to NRP by July 6, 1981.
The specific "scenarios" discussed in the above referenced Westinghouse letter are to be considered as examples of the kinds of interactions which might occur. Your review should include those scenarios, where applicable, but should not necessarily be limited to them.
Applicants with other LHR designs should consider analogous inter-actions as relevant to their designs.
Re~s ense:
A review of potential control system interactions during high energy pipe breaks has been conducted for St. Lucie Unit 2. The review is based on the Combustion Engineering (C-E) generic review effort.
The review considered both the specific systems listed in IE Informa-tion Notice 79-22 and other non-safety systems which could possibly interact with safety grade systems.
I, t.Ppciy. Unit 2 (Ihstrfment~atio nd ontrol Says~ krmnch+uestions)
Despite the low probability of a high energy line break a generic review has byline been performed of thirteen control systems involving'four accidents scenarios which encompass the spectrum of postulated high energy breaks. A matrix was established of the high energy line breaks and control functions (Attachment 1). In the time avai'lable, the matrix was reduced to include only those systems and events which requir'e further evaluation. A general description of the procedure used to reduce this matrix is listed below:
I. An initial review of each postulated Control Function failure for each pipe break was completed and served as the basis for consideration. Hhere a postulated failure could potentially increase the severity of a high energy pipe
, break, the following criteria were employed to resolve the concern:
Is the postulated Control Function failure mode credible7
- 2. Is the Control Function Equipment (Sensor, Cable, etc.)
qualified to operate properly in the postulated environ-ments
- 3. Mhere the postulated Control Function failure is credible, could its impact potentially affect the conclusions pre-sented in the SAR? Considerations such .as Maximum Control Function capabilities, and delayed, but proper operator action were employed in this effort.
In several cases, most notibly the PORV failure in the open position, no specific failure mechanism has been identified. The only manner for such a failure to occur would be for po~er to be inadvertently applied to the valve solenoid and not be removed. Partof the short term recomendations is to evaluate whether or not a failure mechanism of this type is credible.
The potential adverse impact of high energy pipe breaks on reactor coolant pumps was considered. Both the seized shaft and the simultanteous three or four pump 'loss of fIow were e1iminated from consTderat>on based on dudgement that these failures are not con-sidered credible within the time frame limited by operator action
'(30 minutes) due to environmental impact alone. The impact of other potential 'loss of flow events (e.g., one or two pump loss of flow) during. high energy pipe breaks was reviewed and it was judged that the resulting rapid reactor trip was sufficient to ensure that the conclusions of the SAR would not change.

(&54rGlne~~n Cont A hysChmWrw5&~estions) details specific event/interactions scenarios and defines specific short term recoranendations ~hich have been established, on .a generic basis, to minimize the probability and impact of the postulated events. This attachment also discusses potential long term alternatives which have been identified on a generic basis.
The results of a review of the C-E generic evaluation applied to the St. Lucie Unit 2 design are also provided in Attachment 2.
These results are discussed after the generic short and long term recoomendations for each postulated event addressed. 8ased on these results the items shown on the generic matrix (Attachment 1) have been eliminated. Therefore no design changes are necessary to assure that high energy line breaks do not cause control system failures to complicate events beyond the FSAR analysis for St. Lucie Unit 2.

- 1. Significant Interaction Effects:
- a. Increased Containment Pressure
- b. A stuck open PORV in combination with a steam line break has not been analyzed.
- 2. Assumptions
- a. Steam line break (large break inside containment for Item 1.A above, any size or location for Item 1.B above).
- b. Inadvertently PORVs open and remain open
- c. PORY Block valve also fails to close when required
- d. Initial condition: full power
- 3. It must be emphasized that no mechanism has been identified for the PORV to inadvertently open and remain open since its signal to open comes from safety grade equipment and the Garrett valves and solenoids are qualified for an environment in excess of 400'F.

- 4. Sequence of Events
- a. Large steam line break occurs inside containment., gg~ ~ ~ $ 98i
- b. Reactor trip occurs on steam generator low pressure within 5 seconds.
- c. Should the adverse environment cause the PORV to'nadvertently open and then remain open, the following steps may also occur.
It should be noted that no meachnism has been identi'fied which wo'uld cause this to occur.
- d. Steam from PORV fills quench tank and bursts rupture disk releasing steam to the containment and cuasing additional containment pressurization.
- e. Mass removal via PORV causes additional void formation within the reactor coolant system.
- 5. Actions
- a. Short term:
- l. Utilities continue to investigate qualification levels and location of power cables to PORYs and PORY block valves to assess credibility of this failure mode..
- b. Long term:
- 1. Complete assessment of PORVs and block valves. Dependent on the results of that assessment
- a. upgrade environmental qualification level of PORVs and block valves; or
- b. perform detailed analysis of event if required.
- 6. Evaluation for St. Lucie Unit 2 C-E has not identified a failure mechanism relative to this concern.
Furthermore, this system provides input to the Reactor Protective System and, as such, is safety-grade and post-LOCA qualified. Me do not believethis item is applicable to St. Lucie Unit 2.
C. Steam Line Break Hith Feedwater Flow Control S stem Failure 1; Significant Interaction Effects

- c. SAR conservatism I

'. Sequence of Events
- a. Small steam line break occurs which does: not cause an iomediate reactor trip 5g~
- b. Steam generator level instrument fails, causing an increase of feedwater f'low in excess of steam flow
- c. Steam generator begins Co content of steam fill causing increased moisture
- d. If no operator action occurs undefined piping structural problems could result
. e. It should be emphasized that this event can be prevented by prompt operator action. Safety grade steam generator level instrumentation exists, enabling comparison with control grade level instruments of the feed system.
- 4. Action
- a. Short term Ensure the operator is aware of this potential, interaction
,.so that he may take promptcorrective action shoud it occur
- b. Long term Assess the need of upgrading steam generator 'level indi-cation to the feedwater'control system ii. Assess the need to insCall a safety grade high steam, generator level alarm
- 5. Evaluation for St. Lucie Unit 2 The concern in this area assumes a failure in a stea'm generator level instrumentcausing the FHRS to supply feedwater in excess of steam demand, thereby filling the affected steam generator potentially leading to excessive moisture carryover. The St. Lucie Unit 2 design incorporates a design feature Chat automatically closes the feedwater regulating valves at thehigh steam generator level and trips the turbine and main feedwater pumps at the high-high level. The instrumentation transmitting the signal is a four channel system with portions qualified to withstand the adverse environment.
Those portions not qualified will not be exposed to the adverse environment. Me therefore conclude that this concern is not applicable to St. Lucie Unit 2.

- b. HSIV on unaffected steam generator fails to close. This sequence of events is pertinent only if this assumption is made.
- c. Downstream of NSIV's main steam paths fail open
- d. Initial condition: full power
- 3. The number of failures which must occur during this event are significant. First there must be the large break. Then the HSIV on the opposite steam generator must fail to close. There is a stuck rod on reactor trip. Then steam paths downstream of the HSIV's must be affected. These include turbine control valves and steam dump and bypass valves. The probability of this event occurring is much less than 10-6 per reactor year.
- 4. Sequence of Events
- a. Large steam line break inside containment
- b. Reactor trip on low steam generator pressure trip signal
- c. HSIV on unaffected steam generator fails to close on HSIS
- d. Hain steam paths downstream of HSIV open or fail,to close due to control system malfunction caused by adverse environemnt following large steam line break.
- e. Open main steam paths increase the steam blowdown and increase moderator cooldown effect which adds positive reactivity to core. A post-trip return-to-power is more severe under these conditions.

- b. Long term
- i. utilities investigate environmental qualificatjonlevel of the systems involved ii. 'supgrade qualification level of affected equipment if this determined to be necessary
- 6. Evaluation for St. Lucie Unit 2 The systems which must fail in order to open the main steam path downstream of the MSIV are the turbine generator control system (TGCS) and steam bypass control system (SBCS). Review of the St. Lucie Unit 2 design shows that the TGCS and SBCS would not be exposed to the adverse environment. However, the Tave input to the SBCS .generated by the RRS could ge exposed to the accident environment. The Tave input though, is used only to block initiation of a quick opening signal and cannot cause the SBCS valves to open.. A quick opening signal would not be generated due to the low steam flow and pressure inputs to the SBCS so the'alves would remain closed. l<e therefore conclude that this is not applicable to St. Lucie Unit 2.

- 5. Evaluation for St. Lucie Unit 2 The C-E concern postulates the failure of a pressurizer level instrument in the control system, which. in the absence of operator action, causes the pressurizer to fill, thereby allowing the reactor coolant system to go solid. As discussed in our response to IE Bulletin 79-01, the level instruments are post-LOCA qualified. We therefore do not believe there is a concern in this area.

420.4 (2)II(4) Im act of Loss of Cornnon Power Sources Loss of 120 VAC from Power Panel 220 I,
This power loss will impact the pressurizer:level control system (PLCS), the pressurizer pressure control system (PPCS), the reactor regulating system (RRS), the boron control system (BC6),
and the steam bypass control system (SBCS). Specifically, the PLCS will lose control power, assuming tPe selector switch is on that channel (it will be unaffected if on the other channel).
The letdown control valve will go to its fail closed position arid the chargiog pumps will remain powered, and available for manual control. The PPCS will lose control power, assuming the selector switch is on that channel. The pressurizer spray valve will go to its fail closed position and the pressurizer heaters will remain powered and available for manual control. Addition-,
ally the low-low level automatic cut-off of the pressurizer heaters will lose control power. The RRS will lose power assuming the selector switch is on that channel (it .will.
be unaffected if on the other channel). The control element assemblies will remain in their position prior to the power loss. The BCS.will not completely be lost. The reactor makeup water flow controller )sill lose power with the boric acid flow controller unaffected. The letdown line will be affected with the temperature elements for the regenerative and letdown heat exchangers losing power,. however the letdown line will be iso-lated by the letdown control valves mentioned previously. The SBCS will not receive a Ty.ve input from the RRS which may cause the turbine bypass valves to remain closed. Secondary pressure relief and RCS heat removal control can be accomplished through the main steam safety valves and atmospheric dump valves.
Evaluation of Plant Response:
The loss of the PLCS, PPCS, RRS, BCS, and SBCS due to loss of from power panel 220'will not seriously impact plant '20VAC safety. The reactor could function for a time without operator action before a reactor trip would result (most likely on high pressurizer pressure). The operator can choose to select the
N other channel for correct operation of the PLCS, PPCS, and RRS.
However mnual control of the charging pumps, pressurizer heaters, auxiliary sprays, and turbine bypass valves is available. The operator will still have control of the boric acid flow to the charging pumps and he can choose to align the refueling water tank to charging if necessary.

Loss of 120VAC from Power Panel 221 This power loss will impact the pre~wurizer level control system (PLCS).
the pressurizer pressure control system,(PPCS) and the reactor regulating system (RRS)', the boron control system (BCS), and the stean bypass control system (SBCS). Specifically, the same impact as with the loss of 120VAC from power panel 220 will occur with the following exceptions:
The reactor makeup water flow control will remain powered, however the boric acid flow controller will lose power. Additionally the temperature element on the letdown heat exchanger controlling the component cooling water control valve will lose power. The volume control tank level inputs to the BCS will lose power. Also the station alarms (annunciators) will transfer to 125YDC power.
Evaluation'of Plant Response There will be no serious impact to plant safety for the event presented above. In the absence 'of operator action the reactor would eventually trip (on high pressurizer pressure). However., the Operator would be alerted to such an event due to incorrect pressurizer pressure level indications in the control room. He may choose to switch the redundant channel for correct operation of the PLCS, PPCS and RRS.
However, manual control of the charging pumps, pressurizer heaters, and auxiliary sprays is available., The operator can also bypass the boric acid flow controller and provide borated water directly to the chargin pumps or a ign e refueling water tank. 7" t ~Ad 4<l4<<

steam bypass control system (SBCS) and the turbine generator control system (TGCS). Specifically, in the FWRS control power to one regulating valve and bypass valve will be lost. Additionally, main steam flow input to the SBCS from the FMRS is not transmitted from one channel. The turbine runback mechanism will be without power.
Evaluation of Plant Response:
The feedwater regulating system will still control one regulating 'nd bypass valve. The loss of the turbine runback function is backed vp by instr~mentation on120VAC vital Panel 2B which will runback the turbine inrespo'nse to the decreased feedwater flow. Should the runback not operate properly, a reactor trip may result on low steam generator pressure. Manual operation of the atmospheric dump valves and auxiliary feedwater is available. Should the SBCS operate properly or reactor trip not occur the plant would stabilize at a decreased power condition.

Hide range steam generator level will indicate a low level condition on one steam generator. The operator will still have safety grade steam generator

Additionally, on the same steam generato Ytfijgfnst'cementation and control of.the feedwater bypass valve sends a signal to open the valve and actuates a low level alarm in the control t room. However since, a turbine trip, signal is not present it will not open the valve. ,For conservati,sm it is assumed to open increasing flow to the steam generator. The intact portion of the FWRS on that steam generator will see the increased level and close the regulating valve enough to main'tain level.

0803M-4 420.14 The reactor protection system (RPS) includes two trip inputs (7. 2) (turbine trip and loss of component cooling water trip) which are classified as not being required for reactor protection. It is the staff's position (BTP XCSB 26) that all reactor trip inputs to the RPS are required to meet the design requirements of IEEE 279 without exceptions This includes the entire trip function from the sensor to the final actuated devices'SAR Chapter 15 shows that the accident analysis tak s credit for reactor trip on turbine trip. FSAR Subsection 7.2.2.2.11 states that the turbine trip is taken from non-Class XE hydraulic oil pressure switches. The use of non-Class IE switches is not acceptable. Also, it is not clear that the component cooling water trip meets the requirements of XEEE-279. Therefore, provide a description of these and other such RPS inputs with respect to their conformance to BTP ICSB 26. This design description should be supported with electrical schematics, logic diagrams, piping and instrument drawings, test procedures and technical specifications. sponoe The Chapter 15 accident analysis does not take credit for reactor trip on turbine trip to mitigate the results of any event. This is so stated in note 7 to Table 15.0-7. The sequence of events analyses presented in Chapter 15 recognize that such a trip exists and may occur.

a- Loss of CCW Trip Four (4) flow transmitters FT-14-15A,B,C a D are located on the CCN common return header to monitor CCW flow from the RCP's. These four (4) transmitters are powered from redundant Class lE power supplies (MA, MB, MC 6 MD) and are physically and electrically separated in accordance with the RG 1.75. CCW flow out of the RCP's are continuously monitored and displayed on RTG Board 206 in the control room. Upon detection of loss of CCW from the RCP's an alarm in the control room will alert the operator about the low flow condition so that a proper corrective action can be taken immediately. Xf flow is not reestablished in 10 minutes the RPS is actuated to trip the reactor. The test switches are also provided on the RTG Board 206 to enable testing the indicator-bistable. Please refer to the CWD sheet 206 (2998-B-327) for the complete circuit. he component cooling water trip meets the requirements of IEEE-279-71 as described in the FSAR Chapter 7.2.
Isolation devices (rated 2000V) are provided for the turbine trip inputs to the RPS in accordance with RG 1.75 and are routed as described below such that there are no credible events that can compromise the function of the RPS. General The turbine trip input cables are terminated at TB 'A'ocated at the north end of the Turbine Generator Building pedestal and are routed to EL 43.00 of the Reactor Auxiliary Building (directly under the Reactor Protection System Cabinet). Each of the four cables are routed in its own dedicated conduit the entire length and is uniquely identified NMA, NMB, NMC, NMD. No other cable is permitted to be routed with these cables. 1 The cables concerned a~identified as follows: Channel NMA 20710 U (NMA) Channel NMB 20710 V (NMB) Channel NMC 20710 W (NMC) Channel NMD'0710 X (NMD) ~S ecific Cable Routin TB 'A's located at the north end of the Turbine pedestal at EL.62.00. Each cable is routed in its own embedded conduit in the pedestal and down the pedestal leg. The conduits exit the pedestal leg and run embedded to an electrical manholes as follows: MH 256 For Cables 20710 U (NMA) and 20710 W (NMC) MH 257 For Cables 20710 V (NMB) and 20710 X (NMD) Inside manhole 256, cables 20710 U and 20710 W are routed in their own flexible conduit on opposite sides of the manhole from the west to the east walls. High voltage cables, 6.9kV and 4.16kV are routed in this manhole, however the flexible condui.ts are routed in such a manner so as to maintain a minimum separation of 18 inches from all high voltage cables. This separation is reduced to 12 inches at the west face for a distance of 6 inches, as the flexible conduit converts to an embedded conduit. Inside manhole 257, cables 20710 V and 20710 K are routed in their own flexible conduit on opposite sides of the manhole from the west to the north walls. Again as was the case from manhole 256, high'oltage cables of the 4.16 kV and 6.9 kV class are routed within the manhole. However, the flexible conduits are routed in such a manner so as to maintain a minimum separation of 24 inches from all high voltage cables.
Each manhole although non safety related and therefore categorized as non seismic category I, is designed similar to, ie. rebar etc a seismic manhole such that during a seismic event, MH256 or MH257 will behave similar to a seismically designed manhole and will not fail. It must be noted that the 4.16kV and 6.9kV cables are designed with metallic lead sheaths and all cable is class IE qualified, meeting the requirements of IEEE 383. The cables exit the manholes in their own embedded conduits and are routed into the Reactor Auxiliary Building basement where they enter pullboxes. , From each pullbox, the cables are routed in their own separate and indepen-dent conduits up the west Reactor Auxiliary Building wall to the isolation boxes mounted under EL 62.00 gust below the RPS cabinet. From the isolation boxes, the class IE cables 20710H-(MA) 20710J MB) 20710K (MC) and 20710C (MD) are routed in their own conduits and enter their respective sections of the RPS Cabinet. On the basis of the special treatment of these cables, beyond the requirements of RG 1.75, as described above, we can see no credible event where cables of high voltage (6.9kV and 4.16kV) can come in contact with the turbine trip
'cables to the RPS.
Turbine trip inputs to the RPS are properly isolated through con- separate-mounted isolation relay box. The relay-box is a NEMA 4 type struction, with adequate mounting and physical separation design that meet IEEE-344-1975 and RG 1.75 requirement. pry,c qualified fd'he isolation relay is Agastat EGP type which ha been control report, to XEEE-323-l974..

0 On October 30, 1980, Systems Control conducted.43al:eel.r~ tests on two Agastat EGP relays which are IEEE-323 prequalified type relays, The first relay, described hereafter as "Test Vehicle Nl," was a type EPG1001, serial number 80411508, and with a 120 VAC, 60 HZ coil. The second relay, described hereafter as "Test Vehicle 12<" was a type EPGD001, serial number 80411510, and with a 125 VDC coil. The test was divided into two parts. "In part one>> both relays were subjected to upwards of 5,000 VDC and the leakage current measured. A Hipotronics series 300 Hipot and Megohmeter, last calibrated on March 18, 1980, was used to supply the voltage and measure the leakage current. Each test vehicle was attached to a type CR0095 socket and properly seated in place with type CR0155 locking straps. (See the attached data sheet on Agastat sockets and straps). The relays and sockets were then mounted on a 2 x 6 wood board. The test was effected by attachi.ng the hot lead from the Hipot and Megohmeter to one side of the relay coil while the ground lead was connected to one ot the contact connections. The voltage was then increased from zero to either 5,000 volts or until the Hipot and Megohmeter automatically. shut itself down when the leakage current exceeded 5.5 milliamperes. The voltage was then reduced to zero and the ground lead attached to another contact connection and the test repeated. Nhen all the contact connections had thusly to been the other tested, the Hipot and Megohmeter hot lead was connected side of the coil and the whole series of tests repeated. During automatic shutdown, the highest attainable voltage was recorded. Attached please find the data results from the above described tests. P ~ In view of the above, we must conclude the Agastat GP type relay will qualify to the specified 2,000 volts RMS isolation. In addition, the manufacturer guarantees a 2,000 volt RMS isolation for the Agastat relay.

With one fuel pool pump inoperable, the fuel pool equilibrium temperature is 160 F. All connections to the fuel pool are made so as to preclude the possibility of siphon draining of the fuel pool. Any leakage from the fuel pool cool-ing system is detected by reduction in the fuel pool inventory. Makeup to the fuel pool is from the refueling water tank. Makeup inventory to the fuel pool is provided in Subsection 9.1.3.3.1 ~ During accident conditions, the Fuel Pool Cooling System is isolated from the Component Cooling Water System. lfowever, multiple sources (seismic, and non-seismic) of makeup water exist ns discussed in Subsection 9.1.3.3.1. The purification loop normally runs continuously during fuel pool operation Co maintain the fuel pool water puri.ty and clarity. lt is possible to operate the purification system with either the fuel pool ion exchanger or fuel pool filter bypassed. Local sample points are provided to permit ana-lysis of fuel pool ion exchanger and fuel pool filter efficiencies. 9.1-13

FLORDIA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY'S POSITION ON FEEDWATER 1MSIER TESTING
- 1. St. Lucie 81 & 82 Feedwater piping is not only similar, it is essen-tially identical. Isometrics -
of both units were compared and the horizon-differences are measurable in fractions. For example, the tal sections of piping entering the stream generator, which are the sections 'of piping most likely to experience water hammer are all equal in length (2 feed), with on section on Unit f/1 being 3/8" shorter than on Unit //2. St. Lucie 1 performed feedwater hammer testing by draining the feed-ring for up to 2 hours and then manually initiating auxiliary feed-. water. This draining of the feedring is considered the worst case to transient and, since it has been performed on an identical unit, will not be repeated here.
- 2. Three (3) tests will verify that the Auxiliary Feedwater System will perform its design function.
a ~ Aux. Feed Pump Initial Run. This test is a recirculation from/ to the Condensate Storage Tank to initially run .in the equipment.
- b. Auxiliary Feedwater Function and Endurance Test. This test will be performed prior to and during Hot Functional Testing to check out system operation, to verify the manufacturers endurance run.
C ~ Auxiliary Feedwater Automatic Initiation. C. 1. Ob ec j tive.'. To verify auxf eed au'to initiation
- b. To verify the absence of water hammers to the feedwa ter piping during auto initiation.
C-2 Initial Conditions
'a ~ Reactor Coolant System at normal, no-load operating temperature and pressure.
- b. Steam Generator Secondary Side at normal no-load operating temperature and pressure.
c ~ Maintaining Steam Generator levels with manual aux. feedwater control. C-3 Test Outline a~ Station an operator in containment to listen for any symptoms of water hammer.
- b. Stop feeding Steam Generators cs Return Auxiliary Feedwater to a "Normal Standby" lineup.
C. 3 (con t. )
- d. Allow Steam Generators to drain. When the Aux.,Feed-water Actuation Signal occurs, observe proper operations of Automatic Aux. Feedwater initiation (ie. pumps start, valves open, steam generator levels rise)-
- e. Feed Steam Generators to desired levels Resume Manual Aux. Feed to Steam Generators Visually'examine piping external to the Steam Genera-tors for effects of water hammer.
The addition of the automatic activation feature ensures that the steam generators will not be subjected to a long period of steaming down, such as happened at TMI and was tested fox on St. Lucie //1. Xnstead, the system will activate at the actual time it would in the event of an accident. This is consistent with the test being pex-formed at the San Onofre 2 & 3 units after theix feeding modification.
- 3. Pi'ping vibration will be monitored during thevaxious phases of start-up. Xn accordance with the FPL approved vibration monitoring program.
4.. Because of the following reasons: a) The Piping arrangement for both units is almost identical, E b) Extensive Feedwatex Hammer testing was performed on St. Lucie fIl (5 separate tests at various steam-down internals up to 2 hours) and no resultant Feedwater Hammer, c) The St. Lucie I2 Pxeoperational Test Procedure will verify auto-matic injection, which will be the worst condition for Unit /I2, d) An operator will be stationed to specifically monitor for Feed-water Hammer:
,Floxdia Power 6 Light feels that oux present proposed program adequately demonstrates that St. Lucie //2 will.not encounter any Feedwater Hammer problems and hopes this satisfys the NRC Branch position.
Regarding questions raised by Walter Pasedag (Radiological Analysis Branch, Section Accident Evaluation Branch) on the hydrazine additive syst: em and TSP located inside con-tainment, the applicant, will revise the FSAR, as necessary, via amendment to,document the following: 1 - A minimum of,2 hours of hydrazine will be stored for continuous injection at a rate that will insure a minimum concentration of 50 ppm is available at the spray nozzles. 2 As long as doses are acceptable in the applicable por-tions of the Reactor Auxiliary Building, there is the capability to permit, the refilling the hydrazine, tank. 3 A quantity of TSP will be 10acated inside containment such that the water post accident will have a minimum pH of 7.0. P
- 4. The TSP basket design will be such that an inadvertant containment spray will not dissolve the TSP.
5 The TSP baskets will be located in the vicinity of the ECCS sump and designed such that a flow of water will dissolve the TSP within the baskets.

,4 I r defined in 10CFR100, and a spray coverage of 85 percent oE the total 4 containment net free volume, hydrazine addition proceeds for a period of appraxiipstaty g'rpiautas.

Further guidance on the determination of this parameter is given by Parsiy and has been followed in this evaluation. The parameters used in the calcu-lation are given in Table 6.5>>5. For elemental. iodine, a removal co-efficient of 37 hr has been calculated. However, in order to account for re-evolution of iodine, credit is taken for spray rernovaL until. the initial iodine concentration has been reduced by a factor of 100. Further, in the evaluation of the post-LOCA offsite doses, the asssumption is made that 50 percent of the initial airborne iodine instantaneously plates out.

The 5KV and 15KV power cables are insulated with unfilled, cross linked polyethylene, wrapped with an extruded layer of semiconducCing insulation shield material compatible with the insulation, and covered with a lead sheath and a heavy duty overall neoprene jacket. The 600V power cables are'nsulated with a high temperature Kerite insulation (HTK) and covered with black heavy duty flame resistant (FR) jacket. The 600V control cables are insulated with Kerite flame resistant (FRII) insulation and covered with heavy flame resistant (FR) jackets.
'he 600V instrumentation cables consists of twisted pair'ed shielded and unshielded cables. 'Unshielded cables consist of twisted pairs with Kerite flame resistant (FRII) insulation covered with an extruded polymer layer and having an overall flame resistant (FR) jacket. Shielded cables in addition'o the above have a drain wire with each pair in direct contact with alumimum mylar tape. Each shielded pair is separated by glass mylar Cape.
Coaxial cables are constructed with a Rockbestos Firewall III Polymer LD first insulation, radiation cross linked cellular modified polyolefin or ( radiation cross linked modified polyolefin second insulation,'overed with a tin coated copper shield and a radiation cross linked, non corrosive, I flame retardant modified polyolefin overall jacket ~ These cables are rated for continuous service up to 110 C.

XI. Test Data Vendor data (Kerite end>0konite regarding the environmental qualification of their cables exposed to a wet/dry environment are attached for your use. In addition to the above, a procedure was developed on St Lucie Unit- 1 to test certain underground cables to'onfirm their functionability. The fol'lowing is a brief synopsis of this Unit 1 procedure. At least -once per 18 months, during shutdown, by selecting on a rotating basis at least three (3) cables, one from switchgear to intake cooling water motor, one from switchgear to component cooling water motor and one from switchgear to diesel generator are tested with a 2500VDC megger. Control cables that are associated with each of the above motors and diesel generptors are tested with 1000VDC megger. The three spare cables are DC pro%<tested at 25,000 volts and measured for leakage current at 30 seconds intervals for 10 minutes. All readings must meet technical specification 4.8.1.1.3, If any installed spare cable fails the Hit Pot test, the NRC will be notified and corrective action take per technical specification 4.8.1.1.3.

While long term moisture tests on core insulation will serve to show the cable will maintain voltage and IR characteristics, it must be renieinbered that coaxial cables are designed to be basically dry. Therefore, the outer jacket is very iniportant. To prove the jacket integrity .over and above the requirements of ref. para. 6.1.l.b and 6.1.1.e Rockbestos put a sample of jacketed cable in 75"C water and measured IR from inner conductor to first shield. After six inonths the sample shows an insulation resistance of 720 gigohms for 20 ft. 'he sample tested was Rockbestos RSS 6-208C with the outer jacket and aluininum sheath removed. The moisture resistance of the construction, including wet and dry, is further demonstrated by the air oven aging, autoclave spray conditions and humidity environment, as docuinented in the qualification report (Appendix 8).

SL2-FSAR integrated radiation exposure combining 40 years normal. operation and the required 'term of funct ionality during the post design basis accident (DBA) period (up to 1 year). Tables 3.11-1 present the design parameters for radiation for each specified environmental condition ~ The normal operations exposure dose for equipment is either derived more explicity fran the design source terms presented in Chapter ll taking account of equipment arrangement and shielding configuration, nr based on the maximum dose rate anticipated for the radiation zone in which the equipment is generally located. See Section 12.3 and the zonal dose maps on Figures 12.3% through 12.3-12. For equipment in lower radiat ion zones (I & IE) the cumulative 40 year exposur e is conservatively taken as 10 Rads. For Zona V equipment with a few exceptions, (the CVCS ion exchanger, spent resin tank, spent fuel transfer tube and volume cc ntrol tank) ~ the dose rate is 100 R/hr.'or tl>e aforementioned except iona, the design dose 'rate is higher than 100 R/hr.
~
The DBA exposure dose affecting ESF systems and associated safety related cenponents is dependent on equipment location. The DBA considered for the containment, Reactor Auxi li ary, Turbine, and Diesel Generator ouilaings is the p~~)ulation of a LOCA in accordance with the recommendations nf TID-3 14B44 and Regulatory Guide 1.4, "Assumptions Used for Evaluating the Potential Radiological, Consequences of a Loss of Coolant Accident for Pressurized Pater Reactors", June 1974 (R2). The DBA affecting equipment in the Fuel Handling Building is based on the postulation of a fuel Iiandling acciden'to The few organic, materials that exi st within the containment are discussed in Subsection 6,1.2. The radjatinn exposure dose rates given in Table 3.11"1 i s based on gamma radiation exposure. Et is recognized that the beta energy release from noble gases is as much as 2.5 tip'~ greater than the gamma energy release within 30 days post accident. However a representative cable geometry inside containment has protective cover sheathing the insulation layer and an overall cover of fire protective Flamemastic or equivalent., Therefore the integrated beta radiation dose for a one year post accident period is less than 10 percent of the integrated gamma radiation dose over the same period. This comparison includes the conservative assumption of conpari ng effective 2. 2 Nev be tas wi th e f feet' ve 2, 2 ~fev gammas and assumes a spherical cloud, radius 40 ft, of airborne nuclides. Other cnnponents inside containment are considered sufficiently shielded from beta rad iation since it is effectively attenuated by only a few mills thickness of metal. Therefore based on the aforementioned discussion beta radiation i s not considered an environmental quali ficatinn problem. 3.11.6 SUBMERGED CABLES ~~/ pc>fog Q~ P~

The uncracked behavior and capacities o'f the walls shall be considered for unreinforced J walls. For reinforced walls, both cracked and uncracked be-havior and capacities of the walls shall be considered. 5.2.2 Uncracked Section For the uncracked section of the unreinforced masonry wall, the equivalent moment of inertia shall be obtained from a transformed section consisting of the block, mortar, cell grout and where present, core concrete. For the uncracked reinforced wall, the reinforcement area shall also be trans-formed in calculating the moment of inertia.
5.2.3.
~ ~ Cracked Section Xf the applied moment (Ma) exceeds the uncracked moment capacity (Hcr), the wall shall be considered to be cracked.
The equivalent moment of inertia (Ie) of the reinforced cracked walls shall be computed as follows: where, I Mcr Uncracked moment capacity = Mcr = fr ( ), Ma ~ Applied maximum moment on the wall It ~ Moment of inertia of the transformed section as described in Par. 5.2.2. Icr Moment of inertia of the cracked section Modulus of rupture Tensile stress defined in Table 2 for mortar or grout if the masonry Joint is assumed to be cracked. Distance of neutral plane from tension face 5.2.4 Method of Fre uenc Anal sis For the masonry wall, which is subJect to seismic load only and has no large openings, the standard expressions for single degree of freedom systems can be used for computing the natural frequency of the wall. For other types of walls subJected to different types of loads, a finite element model shall be used. One-way behavior can be assumed if the aspect ratio, h/1 (height to length) is less than 0.5; otherwise two-way behavior should be assumed for the wall with four-side support.
- 5. 2 ~ 5 Damp~in The critical damping values to be used shall be as fo11ows:
A. For reinforced and unreinforced uncracked walls use 2% for OBE and SSE. B. For reinforced cracked walls use 4% for OBE, 7% for SSE. 5,2.6 Bounda Conditions
,Boundary conditions for concrete masonry walls shall be selected with regard to the relative stiffness of the masonry walls to their \
suppo'rts and also to the structural details which provide the inter-face between the wall and supports. The guidelines for the selection and qualification of boundary conditions are: A, Si le Su ort - A simple support condition may be assumed at the top or sides of a masonry wall if shear transfer across the joint can be demonstrated under all loading condi.tions; however,no moment transfer is expected. The shear transfer may be accomplished by either mechanical methods (embedments, dowels, masonry ties, support angles, etc.), or by wedging action of the masonry wall with its supports. A plain mortar joint on the bottom support (bed joint) may provide the necessary shear transfer if the shear friction concept can be justified as follows: V ~ NQ where: V ~ shear resistance of mortar joint N ~ force normal to the bed joint (net downward load)
~ ~
u ~, coefficient of friction, 1.0 for concrete, 0.8 for mortar Rl placed against hardened concrete, and 0.7 for con-crete against structural steel. A plain vertical mortar joint at sides of the wall is not quali-, fied as a simple support. 0 B. Fixed~Su port -I Fixed support conditions may be assumed pro-vided the )oint can transfer the flexural stresses to the support. 5.2.7 Poisson's Ratio Poisson's ratio equal to 0.2 is appropriate for both reinforced and non-reinforced concrete masonry 5~2~8 . walls'eismic acceleration shall be selected from either the floor response \ spectrum at the bottom of the wall, or the floor response spectrum at the higher elevation, whichever yields the maximum response with the frequency determined in Par. 5.2.4. 5.2.9 Modal Partici ation For hand calculation, seismic acceleration should be, increased by a factor equal to 1.05 to account for the participation of higher modes for out-of-plane flexural calculations. When the lowest fundamental frequency determined in Par. 5.2.4 is greater than 33 hertz, the factor is unity. 5,2.10 Interstorv Drift Effects In-plane or out-of-plane interstory displacements shall be obtained from the original building structure dynamic analysis. The maximum diiferential displacement due to out-of-plane drift shall be applied at the top support of the wall in static analysis.
'\
Sta~tic Anal sis and Serosa Evaluation 5.3.1 Stress Combination Stresses due to in-plane loads and out-of-plane loads shall be combined using the square root of the sum of the squares method (SRSS). 5.3.2 Multi- the Walls Individu'al wythes of a multiple wythe wall shall be, assumed to act independently under the action of seismic loads unless bonded by reinforcement, bolting or other devices that trans-fer shear at the wythe interface. 5.3.3 Attachment Inertial Loads Stresses due to attachment loads shall be combined with wall inertial loads using the absolute sum method. Block pull out shall be checked locally. 5.3s4 In-Plane Strain Due to Interstor Drift In-plane effects may be imposed on masonry walls by the relative displacement between floors during seismic events as described in Par. 5;2.10. However, the walls do not in-tend to carry a significant part of the buildings story shear. The strain acceptance criteria shall be used for in-plane story drift while a reasonable margin remains for out of plane loading.
<<15-
The gross shear strain is defined to be: Y- +{ where g = strain relative displacement between top and bottom of wall H height of wall. The permissible in-plane shearing strains are: u
= 0.0001 for unconfined walls Yc = 0.001 for confined walls The above. values shall be used for normal and severe en-vironmental load combinations. For other load combinations, the strains shall be multiplied by 1.67.
An unconfined wall is attached on one vertical boundary and its base. A confined wall is attached in one of the following ways: (a) on all four sides; (b) on the top and bottom of the wall (c) on the top, bottom and one vertical side of the wall (d) on the bottom and two vertical sides of the wall. Allowable Stresses 6.1 General The values given in Table 2 shall be the stress allowable for unreinforced masonry. The, values given in Table 3 shall be the stress allowable for reinforced masonry. The values of S given in both tables shall be used for Normal and Severe Environmental load combinations, whereas the values of U shall be used for. other load combinations, as indicated in Table 1, Where the bending due to out-of-plane inertial loading
-causes flexural stresses in the wall to exceed the design allowables, the wall can be evaluated by the 'Arching Analysis'or the unreinforced cracked walls and by the 'Yield-Line Theory'r 'Energy Balance Technique'or the reinforced cracked walls.

If a gap exists at the top of the wall, a gapped arching action should be assumed, otherwise, a rigid arching is assumed for analysis as'llustrated in Fig. l.
