Q 210.01 3.2.1.1, Table 3.2.1-1 What code was used in the design of reactor vessel internals?

Why is there no quality group required for the reactor vessel internals?

RESPONSE

As with other Westinghouse plants (e.g.,

Catawba, Watts Bar) of the same vintage which have previously been reviewed by the Mechanical Engineering
Branch, the reactor internals for Shearon Harris were fabricated prior to implementation of submection NG of the ASME Code.
However, the reactor internals were designed and fabricated consistent with the requirements of the ASNE Code but do not have a specific code stress report or stamp.

A footnote will be added to Table 3.2.1-1 to reflect the above stated design requirements implemented for the reactor internals.

In addition, per the operational QA program the reactor internals were identified as quality group B in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.26.

Based upon the above, this item is closed pending an FSAR revision.

(6324JHE)

Q 210.02 3 ~ 2 ~ 1. 1, Table 3 ~ 2 ~ 1-1, Pages 3 ~ 2. 1-28, 29 Several waste processing system components that are identified safety class 3 are not seismic Category I.

Explain this

.apparent inconsistency.

RESPONSE

Westinghouse has supplied various components in the liquid and gaseous waste processing systems.

As noted on Table 3.2.1-1, the reactor coolant drain tank pump, waste gas compressor, and hydrogen recombiner (catalytic) are nonmucle'ar safety components and, therefore, do not require seismic qualification.

This classification is consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.143.

However, based on contractual requirements with CP6L, Westinghouse designed and built these components to ASNE Code Class 3 requirements.

Additionally, these components were seismically qualified by analysis.

Table 3.2.1-1 will be modified to reflect that these components have been seismically qualified.

It should also be noted that the gas decay tank has been seismically qualified as a Category I component.

Therefore, Note 13 on Table 3.2.1-1 will be deleted and the gas decay tank identified as seismic Category I.

Based on the above information, this item is closed pending an FSAR revision.

(6324JHE)

Q 210.03 3.2.1.2, Page 3.2.1-2 Identify safety class 2 systems or components that are part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.

RESPONSE

Westinghouse utilizes the criteria in ANS 18.2a-1975 for defining the Class 1/Class 2 pressure boundary.

Westinghouse does not provide any Class 2 components in the portion of systems defined in Class 1.

One of the Class 1/Class 2 pressure boundary criteria concerns the use of flow limiting devices which would limit flow from a break in the RCS pressure boundary to a limit which could be made up by the normal charging system.

Specifically, Westinghouse may use a 3/8" orifice to define the Class 1/Class 2 pressure boundary because a break downstream of a 3/8" orifice can be accommodated through the normal charging system.

As such, components downstream of the 3/8" orifice will see RCS pressure but can be classified as Class 2.

Typically, such components consist of small piping and valves (e.g.,

instrument lines).

Based upon the above discussion with the Staff, this item is closed.

(6324JHE)

Q 210.04 3.6.1.2.3, Page 3.6.1-2 Provide details of the portions of the safety injection system that you have excluded for break and through-wall leakage cracks by reason of not being normally pressurized.

RESPONSE

The Safety Injection piping inside containment from the containment penetrations (M-17, M-20 and M-21) to the first check valves (ISI-V17SA, ISI-V230SB, ISI-V29SA, ISI-V63SA, ISI-V69SB, ISI-V75SA, ISI-V39SA, ISI-V45SB, ISI-51SA, ISI-V84SA, ISI-V90SB and ISI-V96SB) at the safety class break is not normally pressurized, and is therefore, excluded from break and through-wall crack evaluation.

This item is closed.

(6324JHE)

Q 210.05 3.6.1.2.4, Page 3.6.1-10 The criteria you have used for the effects of jet impingement forces is intended for postulating the effects of unrestrained whipping pipe.

Provide justification for applying this criteria to the effects of jet impingement.

RESPONSE

The forces imposed on a particular pipe segment and its restraining system which result from impact of a whipping pipe or from impingement of a jet issuing from the break of a pipe identical in nominal size and wall thickness as the whipping pipe are related.

The internal energy of the particular pipe is converted to a fluid mass acceleration (the jet) which is counterbalanced by the whipping pipe inertia and piping restraint reaction forces after the impact.

Since most of the energy of the whipping pipe is recovered at and post impact (where the jet thrust force is counterbalanced by the reaction forces in the restraints),

while usually not all of the jet impingement energy is recovered because a pipe will not intercept the entire jet emanating from a pipe of equal nominal

size, the force from an unrestrained whipping pipe on a pipe of same nominal size will generally be larger than the corresponding force due to jet impingement.

Since both the ANSI N176 standard and the SRP3.6.1 acknowledge that whipping pipes are considered incapable of damaging pipe of equal nominal size and equal or larger wall thickness, we feel that such criterion is equally justifiable for jet impingement.

Further confidence that this would indeed be justifiable was provided to us by our experience with dynamic analysis of piping systems subjected to jet impingement forces.

(6324JHE)

Q 210.05 (Cont '

)

Such analyses would demonstrate that pipes which are restrained in accordance with design guidelines would not be adversely affected when impinged upon by jets issuing from pipes of equal nominal pipe size.

The following is an example that serves as illustration of why this is so.

The example chooses a

4 inch sched.

80 pipe carrying cold water at 1,275 psig.

This pipe is assumed to break and the resulting jet is assumed to impinge upon an identical line located closer than the typical separation between lines.

A distance of one pipe diameter is considered appropriate.

The maximum jet force is computed from:

FJ k Po Ab target G

A jet Where Po is the operating pressure, Ab the break area, Atar et g

the area of the jet intercepted by the target, Aj t the total area that the jet would have at the target location, and G is a shape factor which is related to the drag exerted by the jet.

The factor k is a fluid coefficient which for cold fluids can be taken as 2.0.

In this case we can conservatively assume that Atar et/Ajet ~.68.

The shape factor in this instance equals 0.576 (from ANSI N176).

The force of the jet onto the other 4 inch sched.

80 pipe is therefore equal to about 11500 lb.

We further assume that the target pipe is safety related and would therefore be seismically supported.

The attached nemograph for restraint spacing indicates that straight spans of 4 inch sched.

80 pipe (constant k = 2450 to 3800 see attached table) would be restrained every (6324JHE)

9 210.05 (Cont'd) 9 to 11 feet.

Presence of bends would further reduce the spacing.

Since the boundary conditions of the span for the subsequent analysis is assumed to be simply supported, a spacing of 9 feet is used.

Because of the closeness of the pipe, the full fluid force is not achieved until after the fluid has already impacted on the target, i.e., opening time of break (1

msec) is longer than time to reach target (0.5 msec).

Thus the dynamic load factor of 2 may be applied to a force equal to 1

P Ab target G or the full force can be considered as A

Ajet statistically applied.

For that spacing, with the conservative assumption that the span is simply supported, a force of 11500 lbs placed at midspan would result in a maximum moment of about 3.1 x 10 in-lbs.

This moment is lower than 8.5% of the ultimate moment carrying capability of a 4 inch sched.

80 pipe.

This moment is computed using Gerber's method to be 372.8 x 10 in-lb and 387.27 x 10 in-lb for carbon steel and stainless steel pipes respectively (these values are confirmed by test).

At this value movement strains are still low.

In the worst case 'strains of 0.035%

would occur.

Such relatively small strains are indicative of the fact that the cross sectional area of the pipe would not be affected to the point that flow would be impaired.

Naturally the pipe does retain its integrity.

A furthe'r note must be made.

Besides the conservatisms inherent in the assumption of the target pipe being immediately adjacent to the jet origin, it is known that the modelling of the segment of affected pipe as a single span produces conservative results.

Reference 2 demonstrated that inclusion of multispans reduces the computed moment significantly.

For a multispan system the resulting moment would be below 70% of the ultimate (6324JHE)

Q 210.05 (Cont'd) moment (see attached example curves which demonstrate the conservatism of employing a single span model from the moment and reaction force standpoint as well as for the span lengths in question.

"The generic capability of the restraints to accept the resulting loads is not as easily demonstrated as the integrity and functionality of the pipe, since restraint design varies quite widely.

In general we found that the restraints are capable of accepting the loads.

The best way of demonstrating this is by an example taken from Shearon Harris.

This example happens to be for a 4

inch sched.

80 pipe so that comparisons of real occurences with the previously assumed arbitrary problem.

It is appropriate at this point to discuss and stress the fact that in Shearon Harris, the criterion that is being questioned eliminated only four jet impingement occurrences from approximately 200 interactions studied inside the containment.

For these four cases three of the target pipes had the same size but twice the wall thickness.

This explanation is given to stress the fact that in general the get impingement from a pipe of same nominal size is not a design basis item.

Rather the target pipe is examined for impingement by a jet from a larger pipe.

The specific Shearon Harris example is a jet from a broken line 3 AF4-1SA-1, labelled AT-AF-1-SA on drawing (Rev 6).

The impacted line is 3AF4-95B-1.

Sk.

2165-l&E-R-071 Using the methodology described in Section 3.6 of the FSAR, the force on the projected target is computed to be 2550 lbs.

(This includes a dynamic amplification of 2.0)

(6324JHE)

Q 210.05 (Cont'd)

The separation distance between restraints in this instance is 6.5 feet.

On this basis the maximum moment computed are a

single simply supported span is about 49720 in-lbs.

The maximum stress in the pipe will be about 11640 psi which is below allowable when combined with seismic stresses.

Again the moment and the reaction forces are overestimated by employing a single span approach.

The reaction seen by the restraint will vary between 1330 and 2500 lbs depending on where the jet hits precisely.

The two restraints that would be engaged are capable of accomodating this load.

(One is a snubber rated at 1500 lbs, which can accomodate 2500 under emergency conditions, and the other is a

stout frame capable of accommodating 2800 lbs under emergency loads.

Each is eventually connected to embedded plates which are designed for 10,000 lbs.)

Q 210.07 3.6.2.1.1.2, Page 3.6.2-1 Branch Technical Position MEB 3.1 requires that pipe rupture in Class 1 piping in areas other than containment penetration areas be postulated at:

(a) terminal ends.

(b)

'ntermediate-locations where the maximum stress range as calculated by Eq.

(10) and either (12) or (13) exceeds 2.4 Sm.

(c) intermediate locations where the cumulative usage factor exceeds 0.1.

Revise your ASME Section III Class 1 piping break postulation criteria to conform to this position.

RESPONSE

The pipe break criteria used by Westinghouse for Class 1 lines outside the reactor coolant system was discussed.

Current criteria in the FSAR are based on the 1975 version of MEB 3-1.

Westinghouse does postulate breaks in Class 1 lines when the cumulative usage factor exceeds 0.1.

Since Westinghouse uses the 1979 Summer Addenda of the ASME Code which deleted AT from consideration as a secondary stress, the Staff indicated that the pipe break criteria in, the 1981 version of MEB 3-1 should be used.

Westinghouse agreed to review the pipe break criteria for the Harris plant and justify the current criteria or commit to MEB 3-1 1981.

This item will remain open pending further Westinghouse review and agreement with the Staff on Class 1 pipe break criteria.

RESPONSE

Westinghouse considers a branch connection to a main piping run

.a terminal end of the branch run.

No exception is taken with respect to relative sizes.

Neither Westinghouse nor Ebasco use "overlapped models" in its analysis.

Reference to overlapped models in FSAR Section 3.6.2.1.1.2. will be deleted.

g 210.11 3.6.2.1.4, Page 3.6.2-5 Justify not evaluating pipe whip and jet impingement loads for main steam and feedwat'er lines in the steam tunnel.

RESPONSE

As described in Section 3.6.2.1.2 and 3.6.2.1.4, the main steam piping in the steam tunnel is not subject to postulation of pipe breaks for the evaluation of the effects of pipe whip and jet impingement loads.

The main steam piping in the steam tunnel is designated break-exclusion, (BEX) as described in Figure 3.6.2-1.

Appendix 3.6.A, Tables 3.6.A-15 and 3.6.A-16 present the comparisons of the combined pipe stresses versus the required allowables for the main steam piping in the steam tunnel designated BEX.

The feedwater piping in the steam tunnel from the containment penetrations up to and including the feedwater check valve is similiarly designated BEX, and therefore, pipe breaks for the evaluation of the effects of pipe whip and jet impingement are not postulated.

Appendix 3.6.A, Tables 3.6.A-17.1,

.2,

.3 and 3.6.A-18 present the comparisons of the combined pipe stresses versus the required allowables.

The balance of the feedwater piping in the steam tunnel is designated non-nuclear Safety Seismic Category I.

The routing is straight through the steam tunnel with no intermediate pipe fittings, welded attachments or valves.

Consistent with MEB 3-1, paragraph B.l.C(2), pipe breaks need not be postulated.

FSAR Section 3.6. 2.1.4 and Figure 3.6. 2-1 will be modified to include a statement that a

100% volumetric inservice examination of all pipe welds in the break-exclusion area is conducted during each inspection interval as defined in IPA-2400, ASNE

Q 210.12 3.6.2.2 Insufficient detail'for a complete review of your dynamic analysis of jet thrust exists.

Provide information regarding your time-dependent function representation of the jet thrust force, your assumptions concerning rise time, and the time variation of the jet thrust forcing function's relation to

pressure, enthalpy and volume of the fluid in any existing upstream reservoir.

RESPONSE

The discussion of the Westinghouse method used to determine jet thrust from postulated breaks in the RCL piping was inadvertently left out of the FSAR.

The attached write-up will be inserted in the FSAR on Page 3.6.2-9 immediately ahead of Section 3.6.2.2.2 in a future amendment.

The procedures given for the calculation of jet thrust load are consistent with those given in ANS 58.2.

These criteria have been reviewed and accepted by the Staff during MEB reviews for other plants.

For Ebasco

scope, Time Dependent Jet Thrust Forcing Functions are calculated by use of RELAP-3 Program in conjunction with a proprietary post processor called CALPLOTF.

Description of analytical methods with RELAP Program is given in Appendix C to.

ETR-1002 (Reference 3.6.2-4).

Pipe breaks are taken to be instanteous and therefore, no assumptions are made regarding rise time of the Jet Thrust Force.

FSAR Figures 3.6A-1 through 3.6A-28 will be revised appropriately.

RESPONSE

For the

RCS, Westinghouse performs the jet impingement analysis and evaluates jets on Westinghousemupplied equipment and supports.

For jets from the RCS that could impact upon auxiliary equipment and piping, Westinghouse provides. Ebasco with jet direction and expansion data.

Ebasco takes this information and evaluates the impact on Class 1 piping and transmits any jet impingement loads on Class 1 piping to Westinghouse for incorporation into the Westinghouse Class 1

piping analysis.

g 210.16 3.6.2.5, Page 3.6.2-18 Justify the use of limited area circumferential or longitundinal

breaks, provide a list showing where limited break areas have been postulated.

RESPONSE

For the structural evaluation of the reactor coolant system Westinghouse assumes full doublemnded breaks except at the reactor vessel nozzles.

At this location a break opening area of 150 square inches is used.

The break opening area is limited by the restraints at the reactor vessel nozzles.

Westinghouse provides Ebasco with interface information to ensure that the Ebasco restraint design will limit the break opening area to a maximum of 150 square inches.

Based on the Ebasco restraint design Westinghouse calculates'ctual break opening areas to confirm that interface requirements have been met.

This information was not available at the meeting but will be provided to the Staff when available.

For Ebasco

scope, limited area circumferential breaks are postulated only in the Main Steam System Inside Containment.

(From containment penetration to SG)., Limited area circumferential breaks in the Main Steam in )ustified since the displacement of the severed ends of the pipe is limited by pipe whip restraints.

A detailed dynamic analysis has been performed to show that the relative position of the two pipe ends remain within the bounds described in FSAR section 3.6. 2.3.4.2.

All limited area circumferential breaks are shown on Figure 3.6A-l.

Limited area longitundinal breaks are not used.

This item is open, pending submittal of additional information on the traceability of the support details.

21 (6324JHE)

g 210.17 3.6.2.5, Page 3.6.2-18 Provide details and examples of the analysis performed with respect to piping restraints.

RESPONSE

The RCL pipe whip restraints are designed to the same limits as the primary equipment supports and thus remain elastic under faulted conditions.

Westinghouse designs these restraints to NF limits.defined in the ASNE Code.

Examples and details of the Ebasco scope analyses performed for piping restraints were presented at the MEB meeting and were found to be acceptable.

Q 210.18 3.6.2.5, Page 3.6.2-18 Provide details of dynamic testing performed to determine the energy dissipating capacity of crushable material used in pipe restraints.

Verify that the allowable capacity is limited to 80% of the energy dissipating capacity determined by dynamic testing.

RESPONSE

The energy dissipating capacity of the crushable material was based on static test results.

The allowable design energy capacity was based on a maximum permissable crush of the compressible material of 50 percent of its original thickness.

By specification the fabricator furnished the material so that the maximum thickness of the crushable material after being completely crushed to its maximum absorbing capacity shall not exceed 35 percent of its original thickness.

Based on the foregoing the allowable capacity is limited to a maximum of 77 percent of the energy dissipating capacity determined by typical static test results.

RESPONSE

Break locations for the RCS are outlined in Section 3.6 per WCAP-8082.

Additional information for Class 1 piping relative to break locations will be provided to Ebasco for incorporation into the FSAR as requested by the Staff.

The FSAR will be revised to include complete summary information when it is available.

This item is confirmatory pending NRC Staff review of summary information to be submitted. (6324JHE)

g 210.21 3.7.3.1.1, Page 3.7 ~ 3-1 How have you determined "a sufficient number of degrees of freedom to closely simulate the dynamic behavior of the subsystems?"

RESPGNSE:

For piping systems adequate mass points and corresponding dynamic degrees of freedom (each unrestrained mass point represents three degrees of freedom) are selected and distributed to provide for appropriate representation of the dynamic characteristics of the subsystem.

As indicated in subsection 3.7.3.1.1.1, "the maximum spacing between mass points does not exceed one-half (1/2) of the distance for which the frequency of a simple support beam would be 20 cps.

Furthermore, it is verified that the number of degrees of freedom considered in the analysis are equal to or more than twice the number of modes with frequencies less than 33 Hz."

This approach assures that consideration of additional degrees of freedom would not result in more than a

10% increase in response and that the number of degrees of freedom are equal to at least twice the number of modes with frequencies less than 33 Hz This item is closed. (6324JHE)

Q 210.22 3.7.3.1.1, Page 3.7.3-1 Define the term "significant modes" as you have applied it to seismic subsystem analysis.

RESPONSE

Significant modes are all modes which contribute to the 'seismic response.

These modes are further defined in FSAR Section 3.7.3.1.1.1.d and is repeated below:

The modes are divided into two groups:

the lower modes and higher "rigid" modes.

The rigid modes are those whose natural frequencies lie outside the range where the support movement has significant energy.

For earthquakes, this corresponds to frequencies above 33 Hz.

Dynamic response analysis includes all modes below 33 Hz, however, additional calculations are made to account for all th' rigid modes combined.

g 210.23 3.7.3.1.1, Page 3.7.3-1 What special devices have been used to eliminate the effects of "relative displacements?

Where have they been employed?

RESPONSE

For piping systems, the most common special devices used in general to eliminate the effects of relative seismic displacements are expansion joints, flexible hoses, and ball joints.

At this time, no special devices are being employed on Shearon Harris Unit 1 to eliminate these displacements.

Discussion of special devices will be removed from the FSAR. If any are utilized.in the future a description of them will be incorporated into the FSAR.

g 210.24 3.7.3.5.1, Page 3.7.3-6 If the equivalent static load method is not used on piping systems where has it been used?

RESPONSE

The equivalent static load method has been used for the analysis of cable trays,

conduits, HVAC ducts and their supports.

This item is closed. (6324JHE)

0 Q 210.25 3.7.3.8.1, Page 3.7.3.3-8 Further discussion of your approach to determining modal acceleration is required.

It is not apparent from the material presented that the alternate response spectra are conservative.

RESPONSE

Floor response spectra for seismic category I structures are determined from the inmtructure acceleration time histories.

The peaks of the floor,.response spectra are broadened plus or minus fifteen percent in frequency to account for variation of parameters, such as the material properties of the structure and soil, damping values, soilmtructures interaction techniques.

This is consistent with the example shown on Figure 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.122.

The alternate response spectra described in the FSAR will be modified per staff requests at the MEB meeting.

The modifications to the spectra which comprise the alternate spectra technique are taken from a proposed draft revision to RG 1.122 contained in an NRC memorandum from Robert J.

Bosnak to James P.

Enight, dated January 27, 1983.

Q 210 ~ 26 3. 7. 3 ~ 8 ~ 1. 1, Page 3 ~ 7 ~ 3-9 Provide an example of your computer method analysis using the response spectra method of Section 3.7.3.1.1.

Include a case in which the peak with the lowest period was used.

Also provide an example of your frequency based static method.

Justify the use of 70% of the period of the peak response as a cutoff criteria.

RESPONSE

As stated in Section 3.7.3.8. 1.1, three sample problems are'resented in the FSAR which have been analyzed using both the response spectra method of Section 3.7.3.1.1, and the frequency based static method.

The models of these systems are shown in Figures 3.7.3-2 through 3.7.3-5.

The purpose of the comparision is to demonstrate that the, static method is conservative.

Choice of 70% of the period of the peak response as a cutoff criteria is selected to assure that no resonance is present.

The adequacy of this approach is demonstrated by the comparison of the sample problem results using both methods.

The sample problems were selected to be representative of typical power plant piping systems.

It should be pointed out that 70% criterion is applied in such a

manner that lowest period for which there is a significant response is chosen.

Furthermore, in applying the participation factor of 1.5 the highest peak between zero and the first period of piping is taken.

The sample problems are formulated in a manner which encompasses the case where the peak with the lowest period is used.

Therefore, no further examples are required.

basis for its acceptability.

RESPONSE

Stresses due to differential seismic motion of primary component supports are treated as primary stresses in the reactor coolant system/component support analysis.

Differential seismic motions are treated as secondary stresses on piping.

This item was further discussed in Question 210.33.

Based upon the above, this item is closed. (6324JHE)

Q 210. 28 3. 9.1. 1, Page 3.9. 1-1 Provide for our review the AS>fE Code service limits you have specified for transient loading conditions or load combinations with respect to Code Class 1 and CS components.

RESPONSE

The stress limits and load combinaion criteria for Class 1

components,

supports, and core support structures were discussed with respect to FSAR Tables 3.9.1-2 (Load Combinations) and Table 3.9.1-3 (stress limits). It was noted that Table 3.9.1-2 is also applicable to core support structures but that the procurement of these components predated ASME III Subsection NG.

It was also noted that the procurement of the primary equipment supports predates Subsection NF but the stress criteria for these supports was in fact that of NF.

Revised tables were presented to the Staff that, for load combinations, included core support structures (while deleting OBE from the design condition),

and for stress criteria, explained that for Westinghouse designed supports Subsection NF was used for stress criteria only (no stress report or code stamp).

Additional discussion centered on the Class 1 scope split between Ebasco and Westinghouse.

RESPONSE

1.

The Westinghouse time-history analysis of the reactor coolant system was discussed.

It was noted that the maximum displacement between supports is considered in the analysis as primary stresses.

The Ebasco input for this analysis consisted of the structural model of the containment and also the seismic motion of the base mat.

Westinghouse added the reactor coolant system model and then developed acceleration time histories for the various attachment points of the NSSS.

The computer code automatically generates the maximum displacements of these points and applies these displacements to the model.

The FSAR Section 3.7.3.9.2 should be modified tg eliminate

., a reference to a static evaluation of the differential seismic movement of components interconnected between floors.

For Ebasco

scope, information regarding item 1 is in Section 3.7.3.1.1 and is repeated below:

When the supports for a subsystem were all mounted at the same floor, the relative displacement among supports was not considered.

This relative displacement was considered where the supports of the same subsystems were loaded at different floors.

For the case where the supports of the same subsystem were located in different buildings, the maximum relative displacements among the different supports were considered in the seismic dynamic analysis of the subsystem, unless special devices were used to eliminate the effect of relative displacements. (6324JHE)

Q 210.33 (Cont'd)

FSAR Section 3.7.3.1.1 will be modified concerning the following:

Relative displacements within a structure were assumed to be in phase relative to the mat.

Relative displacements between structures were assumed to be totally out of phase.

[The statement in this section which refers to the use of special devices will be deleted.]

2.

The NSSS equipment is analyzed considering the effect of the equipment fundamental frequencies and the forcing frequencies of the supporting structure.

Reference was made to FSAR Section 3.7.3.4.2 for a more detailed discussion.

For Ebasco

scope, information regarding item 2 is in Section 3.7.3.4 and is repeated below:

3.7.3.4 Bases for Selection of Frequencies Where feasible and practical, subsystems were designed to avoid the resonant frequency region of the supporting structure.

Shifting of the subsystems away from the resonant region was achieved by modifying massmtiffness characteristics.

Because of practical limitations, subsystems were, in some

cases, designed in such a way that the frequencies fell into the resonant region of the supporting system.

The amplified seismic response of the subsystem was then evaluated by a proper consideration of total modal contribution from all modes within,the frequency range of 1 to 33 Hz as a minimum.

In some cases, the modes with (6324JHE)

'Q 210.33 (Cont'd) frequencies higher than 33 Hz were also included.

See Section 3.7.3.1.

3.

The three components of earthquake motion are combined by SRSS of the resultant unidirectional responses.

Reference was made to FSAR Section 3.7.2.6B for a more detailed discussion.

For Ebasco

scope, information regarding item 3 is in Sections 3.7.3.1.1, 3.7.3.6, 3.7.3.7 and 3.7.2.6A and is summarized below:

Modal responses were combined in the square root of the sum of the squares manner except for the responses of the closely spaced modes which were combined by the summation of the absolute values method.

The latter were then combined with the responses of the remaining significant modes by the square root of the sum of the squares method.

Closely spaced modes were ascertained utilizing the criterion of Regulatory Guide 1.92.

The seismic analysis of all Seismic Category l structures,

systems, and components takes into consideration three orthogonal directions of seismic motions; two horizontal and one vertical.

The maximum responses to each of the three components of motion are determined separately and combined by the square root of the sum of the squares (SRSS) method to obtain the total seismic responses in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.92.

The simultaneous application of time histories or linear summation of responses are not performed.

4.

It was noted that Westinghouse does not have scope for the analysis of any piping between buildings.

The Westinghouse Class 1 auxiliary piping analysis utilized a response spectrum that envelopes the response of each attachment point of the system under consideration.

The effect of differential seismic motion of piping supports is considered to cause secondary stresses in the piping system.

Reference was made to FSAR Section 3.7. 3.8. 2 for a more detailed discussion.

Information regarding Ebasco scope is in Sections 3.7.3.9.1 and 3.7.3.9.2.

FSAR Section 3.7.3.9.1 will be modified to clarify that the enveloped response spectrum is used.

5.

Westinghouse does not have scope for any equipment or components supported between buildings.

For equipment or components supported at different elevations within a building, Westinghouse uses response spectra that envelope the responses at each attachment point.

Reference was made to FSAR Section 3.7.3.8.2 for a more detailed description. (6324JHE)

Westinghouse uses a vertical response spectra for Class 1

auxiliary piping analysis; vertical static factors are not used.

Reference was made to FSAR Section 3.7.3.10.2.

Information regarding Ebasco scope is in Section 3.7.3.10.1 and is repeated below:

3.7.3.10.1 Balance of Plant Scope A single constant seismic vertical load factor was not used for the seismic design of seismic subsystem.

The vertical load factor was determined from the analysis.

7 ~

For piping in Westinghouse scope of analysis, rigid valves (i.e., valves with natural fiequencies greater than 33 Hz) are included in the piping system model as lumped mass on rigid extended structures.

If a valve is not rigid (one or more natural frequencies below 33 Hz), then a multimass dynamic model of the valve is developed for use in the piping system model.

Reference was made to FSAR 3.7.3.11.2.

Torsional effects of all valves and other significant eccentric masses were included in the analysis of all Seismic Category I piping systems by taking into account the mass and eccentricity in the mathematical model.

8.

Information regarding item 8 is in Section 3.7.3.12 and is

.repeated below:

Ebasco's design procedure for seismic analysis of Seismic Category I buried piping was based upon Newmark's method (Reference 3.7.3-1) and Hetenyi's theory in beams on elastic foundations (Reference 3.7.3-2).

The analysis procedure included calculation of stresses in the buried portion of the piping due to loads acting on the non buried portion of the piping inside the building (interaction effect),

superimposed on the stresses due to various loads acting on the buried portion of the piping.

The resultant stresses were within allowable stress criteria based on the applicable ASME Section III Code.

9.

Item 9 remains open.

The NRC does not accept the methodology used to account for seismic motion of non-category 1 piping on the design of category 1 piping.

The NRC clarified that this does not apply to the Main Steam and Feedwater interface restraints which are acceptable.

Items 1 through 8 are closed pending FSAR changes and the addition of a reference to FSAR Section 3.7.3 in FSAR Section 3.9.2.

Item 9 is open pending further discussions. (6324JHE)

The loading combinations and stress limits for Class 2 and 3

components were discussed.

It was noted that pertinent information on loading combinations and stress limits for Class 2 and 3 components and supports is contained in the FSAR.

Specifically, Table 3.9.3-1 provides loading combinations, Tables 3.9.3-2/3 provide stress limits for tanks (vessels),

Tables 3.9.3-4/5 provide stress limits for pumps, Table 3.9.3-6 provides stress limits for valves and Section 3.9.3.4 defines the stress limits used for Class 2 and 3

supports.

The subject of functional capability of Class 1 piping outside the reactor coolant system was discussed.

The Staff indicated that there were a number of criteria which were acceptable including the use of Level C limits from the Winter 1981 Addenda of 'the ASME Code for the faulted condition.

Westinghouse indicated that they are using the Summer 1979 ASME Code faulted condition limits and considered these limits acceptable for (6324JHE)

Q 210.35 (Cont'd) assuring functional capability.

Westinghouse agreed to review this item further and provide a more detailed position to the Staff.

This item will remain open pending resolution of the functional capability issue for Class 1 piping outside the RCS.

The following is a discussion of this item for the BOP scope:

Generically, the issue of functional capability for piping which is a passive component was unresolved until July 1981 because the NRC has not reached a conclusion as to what would be acceptable.

In July 1981, the NRC issued NUREG-0800 which included SRP 3.9.3 and its Appendix A, the'cceptance criteria adopted by the NRC for functional piping.

Almost simuftaneously, the NRC approved NEDO-21985 as an acceptable basis of demonstrating functional capability.

Prior to the NRC's adoption of these criteria, essential system were considered operable if they met the pressure integrity considerations of the ASME code pursuant to Regulatory Guide 1.48.

Specific calculations as to the total decrease in flow area required before functional capability was lost (i.e.

the capability to deliver the amount of fluid necessary to shutdown the plant and/or mitigate the consequences of an accident) have been submitted on several dockets in support of this position.

Presently, functional capability is not a SHNPP requirement

and, therefore, no commitment has been provided in the FSAR.

This position is based upon the vintage of the requirements upon which SHNPP base licensing commitments were developed.

SHNPP is not committed to either Appendix A of SRP 3.9.3, or to the NUREG-0800 version of SRP 3.9.3.

In lieu of this document, SHNPP is committed to Regulatory Guide 1.48.

Carolina Power Light Company believes this position is consistent with the (6324JHE)

Q 210.35 (Cont'd)

NRC's position implemented on plants with CP docket dates prior to 7-1-78, (i.e.

the approximate date of NRC's interim positions).

The date of the Construction Permit for SHNPP is January 27, 1978.

For non-NSSS piping a measure of protection against loss of piping functional capability is provided for systems required to deliver flows under faulted plant conditions.

This protection is afforded by specifying for these systems emergency level stress limits for primary piping loads.

These low stress limits combined with the inherent conservatism of the design basis assure that gross deformations will not occur.

In addition, FSAR Section 3.9.3 will be revised to support the above position.

Refer to the Response to Question 210.38 for Tables which show actual stress limits.

This item is open.

The NRC staff accepted the above discussion for Class 2 and 3 carbon steel piping, but clearly stated that it will not accept this for Class 2 and 3 Stainless Steel piping due to lack of conservatism in Code requirements.

The staff requires an analysis of stainless steel elbows on class 2 and 3

piping in essential systems in order to close this item.

Carolina Power 6 Light Company will review the staff position and respond further at a later date. (6324JHE)

Q 210.36 3.9.3.1 Provide faulted allowable stresses for bolts used in ASNE Code components.

RESPONSE

The service limits given in ASME III, Subsection NB-3230 for design and service levels A,

B and C are used for the following Class 1 component bolts:

Reactor Vessel Studs Steam Generator Hanway Bolts Pressurizer Hanway Bolts Reactor Coolant Pump Hain Closure Bolts The faulted condition service limit is not increased over the Level C service limits for the above bolts.

For Class 1,

2 and 3 valves and Class 2 and 3 auxiliary equipment, the maximum value of bolt stress averaged across the bolt cross section does not exceed two times the bolt design stress intensity which is equivalent to Level C limits.

For Class 1,

2 and 3 component supports, Westinghouse uses allowable bolt stresses specified in Code Case 1644.

These limits are increased for the emergency condition according to the provisions of Appendix XVII-2110(a) of the ASHE Code,Section III.

For the faulted condition these limits are increased in accordance with the provisions of Appendix XVII-2100(a) and Appendix F-1370(a).

For Ebasco

scope, only high strength bolting m'aterials, as defined in ASNE-III, NC/ND-3658.3, are used in the piping systems.

The allowable stresses at 100'F are not less than 20,000 psi.

For the Shearon Harris Project bolting used on structural frames is designed in accordance with AISC.

Our practice is to limit bolt size selection to a maximum of 75 percent of the tabulated allowable loads with further reduction to 50 percent where prying action was considered to be a factor.

The Shearon Harris Project instructions direct that hangers/restraints be designed in accordance with 8 specified load combinations.

In almost all cases, Equation 6 having Sx for the structural steel design criteria controls.

Equation 8

RESPONSE

Valve discs are considered part of the pressure boundary by Westinghouse and thus uses ASME III Code allowable stress limits.

For Class 1 valves these limits are outlined on Table 3.9.1-3, "Stress Criteria for ASME Code,Section III Class 1 Components."

For Class 2 and 3 valves, these limits are outlined on Table 3.9.3-6, "Stress Criteria for ASME Code Class 2 and 3

NSSS-Supplied Active and Inactive Valves."

For Class 2 and 3 valves, stress limits are indicated in ASME Section III, Subsection NC, Table NC-3521-1 and FSAR Table 3.9.3-8.

Note (3) of that ASME table indicates that "Design requirements listed in this table are not applicable to valve discs,

steam, seat rings, or other parts of the valves which are contained within the confines of the body and bonnet."

NC-3512 Standard Design Rules of ASME refers to ANSI B16.5 for design requirements and pressure temperature ratings.

ANSI B16.5 Appendix D requirements for pressure temperature ratings as follows:

"Selection of gaskets,

bolting, and in the case of valves,
stems, discs and other parts subject to pressure and other loading must be consistent with pressure temperature rating."

Q 210.43 Due to a long history of problems dealing with inoperable and incorrectly installed snubbers, and due to the potential safety significance of failed snubbers in safety related systems and components, it is requested that maintenance records for snubbers be documented as follows:

Premervice Examination A pre-service examination should be made on all snubbers listed in tables 3.7-4a and 3.7-4b of Standard Technical Specification 3/4'.9.

This examination should be made after snubber installation but not more than six months prior to initial system pre-operational

testing, and should as a miniumum verify the following:

(1)

There are no visible signs of damage or impaired operability as a result of storage, handling, or installation.

(2)

The snubber location, orientation, position setting, and configuration (attachments, extensions, etc.) are according to design drawings and specifications.

(3)

Snubbers are not seized, frozen or jammed.

(4)

Adequate swing clearance is provided to allow snubber movement.

(5) If applicable, fluid is to the recommended level and is not leaking from the snubber system.

(6)

Structural connections such as pins, fasteners and other connecting hardware such as lock nuts, tabs, wire, cotter pins are installed correctly. (6324~E)

Q 210.43 (Cont'd)

If the per'od between the initial pre-service examination and initial system premperational test exceeds six months due to unexpected situations, re-examination of items 1,

4, and 5 shall be performed.

Snubbers which are installed incorrectly or otherwise fail to meet the above requirements must be repaired or replaced and remxamined in accordance with the above criteria.

Pre-Operational Testing During pre-operational testi'ng, snubber thermal movements for systems whose operating temperature exceeds 250' should be verified as follows:

(a)

During initial system heatup and cooldown, at specified temperature intervals for any system which attains operating temperature, verify the snubber expected thermal movement.

(b)

For those systems which do not attain operating temperature, verify via observation and/or calculation that the snubber will accomodate the projected thermal movement.

(c)

Verify the snubber swing clearance at specified heatup and cooldown intervals.

Any discrepancies or inconsistencies shall be evaluated for cause and corrected prior to proceeding to the next specified interval.

The above described operability program for snubbers should be included and documented by the pre-service inspection and premperational test programs. (6324JHE)

Q 210.43 (Cont'd)

The pre-service inspection must be a prerequisite for the pre-operational testing of snubber thermal motion.

This test program should be specified in Chapter 14 of the FSAR.

There are several safety systems connected to the reactor coolant pressure boundary that have design pressure below the-rated reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure.

There are also some systems which are rated at full reactor pressure on the discharge side of pumps but have pump suction below RCS pressure.

In order to protect these systems from RCS pressure, two or more isolation valves are placed in series to form the interface between the high pressure RCS and the low pressure systems.

The leak tight integrity of these valves must be ensured by periodic leak testing to prevent exceeding the design pressure of the low pressure systems thus causing an intersystem LOCA.

Pressure iolation valves are required to be category A or AC per IWV-2000 and to meet the appropriate requirements of IWV-3420 of Section XI of the ASlK Code except as discussed below.

Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO) are required to be added to the technical specifications which will require corrective action i.e., shutdown or system isolation when the final approved leakage limits are not met.

Also surveillance requirements, which will state the acceptable leak rate testing frequency, shall be provided in the technical specifications.

Periodic leak testing of each pressure isolation valve is required to be performed at least once per each refueling outage, after valve maintenance prior to return to service, and for systems rated at less than 50% of RCS design pressure each time the valve has moved from its fully closed position unless justification is given.

The testing interval should average to be approximately one year.

Leak testing should also be performed after all disturbances to the valves are

complete, prior to reaching power operation following a refueling outage, maintenance and etc. (6324JHE)

Q 210.44 (Cont'd)

The staff's present position on leak rate limiting conditions for operation must be equal to or less than 1 gallon per. minute (GPM) for each valve to ensure the integrity of the valve, demonstrate the adequacy of the redundant pressure isolation function and give an indication of valve degradation over a finite period of time.

Significant increases over this limiting value would be an indication of valve degradation from one test to another.

The Class 1 to Class 2 boundary 'will be considered the isolation point which must be protected by redundant isolation valves.

In cases where pressure isolation is, provided by two valves, both will be independently leak tested; When three or more valves provide isolation, only twoof the valves need,to be leak tested.

Provide a list of all pressure isolation valves included in your testing program along with four sets of Piping and Instrument Diagrams which describe your reactor coolant system pressure isolation valves.

Also discuss in detail how your leak testing program will conform to the above staff position.

RESPONSE

A listing of all pressure isolation valves included in the testing program is contained in FSAR Section 3.9.6.

This FSAR Section will be amended to include testing requirements which will later be incorporated into the Technical Specifications.-

Copies of drawing CAR 2165 G 809 showing RCS pressure isolation valves will be provided to the staff.

This item is open pending additional NRC review of the information to be submitted.
