Dr. Walter R. Butler, Chief SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION MODIFICATION TO QUESTION 5.37 ER 100450 FILE 840-2 PLA-110 Docket Nos.

Dear Dr. Butler:

We are in the process of writing our Structural Integrity Test Procedure to be submitted to you in late April, 1976.

In Amendment ¹16, we submitted an amended response to Question 5.37 on compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.18.

This response listed our exceptions to Regulatory Guide 1.18.

We have two additional exceptions.

They are as follows:

l.

Reference:

Paragraph C.2 of the Regulatory Guide.

We intend to select the number and distribution of measuring points for monitoring radial deflections so that the as-built conditions can be considered in the assessment of general shell response.

In general the locations of measuring points for radial deflections are in agreement with Figure B, except point 1.

Point 1 is provided at a distance of two times the wall thickness (12') from the base slab.

This variation is made to properly predict the containment behavior near the base slab to wall connection.

If point 1 were to be provided. at a height of three times the wall thickness (18') it would. be located very close to point 2 (suppression chamber wa11 midheight is 26')

and. would not yield. any additional behavior pattern of the containment.

2.

Reference:

Paragraph C.5 of the Regulatory Guide.

Because of the current state of the art, triaxial concrete strain distortion measurements, while

taken, may not be used. to evaluate the containment strain distribu-tion.

The concrete strain will be evaluated using linear strain measurements in the meridiona1 and radial directions.
