CONTAINMENT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.6. 1.4 INTERNAL PRESSURE The limitations on containment interna'1 pressure ensure that (1) the containment structure is prevented from exceeding its design negative pressure differential with respect to the outside atmosphere of 4 psig and (2) the containment peak pressure does not exceed the design pressure of 60 psig during LOCA conditions.

ss.s The maximum peak pressure expected to be obtained from a LOCA event is psig.

The limit of 2.5 psig for initial'ositive containment pressure will limit the total pressure to 4 psig which is less than the design pressure (60 ps,ig) and is consistent 1th the safety analyses.

,s,pg4'4$ itomuq te.s 3/4. 6. 1. 5 AIR TEMPERATURE The limitation on containment average air temperature ensures that the overall containment average air temperature does not, exceed the initial tem-perature condition assumed in the safety analysis.

3/4.6. 1.6 CONTAINMENT STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY This limitation ensures that the structura integrity of the containment will be maintained comparable to the original design standards for the life of the facility.

Structural integrity is requiredeto ensure that the containment will withstand the maximum pressure of 4~"psig in the event of a LOCA.

The containment design pressure is 60 psig.

The measurement of containment tendon lift-offforce; the tensile tests of the tendon wires or strands; the examina-tion and testing of the sheathing filler grease; and the visual examination of tendon anchorage assembly

hardware, surrounding concrete and the exterior sur-faces of the containment are sufficient to demonstrate this capability.

The tendon wire or strand samples will also be subjected to tests.

All of the req~uired t ting.and visual examinations should be performed in a time frame that permits a comparison of"the results for the same operating history.

The Surveillance Requirements for demonstrating the containment's structural integrity are in compliance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.35, "Inservice Surveillance of Ungrouted Tendons in Prestressed Concrete Containment Structures,"

Revision 3, 1984, and Regulatory Guide 1.35.1, "Deter-mining Prestressing Forces for Inspection of Prestres'sed Concrete Containments,"

1984.

The required Special Reports from any engineering evaluation of containment abnormalities shall include a description of the tendon condition, the condition of the concrete (especially at tendon anchorages),

the inspection procedures, the.tolerances on cracking~he-results of the engineering evaluation, and the corrective actions taken.
