Appendix 2.10.5 Finite Element Analysis for Drop Test Position 2-23
Introduction to Appendix 2.10.5 In order to determine the most dmm1ging orientation(s) of the pack<lging with respect to the hypothetical accident conditions (HAC) required by IOCFR7 l, Eco-Pak Specialty Packaging contracted with LAW Engineering of Charlotte, North Carolina to provide finite element mrnlyses (FEA) simulating a 30-foot drop unto an unyielding surface for several different impact orientations. Two reports detailing the five orient<1tions yielding the highest stresses arc provided in this appendix.
Discussion Five orient<Jtions are ev<1luated in the attached reports:
- 1. A fl<lt bottom surface drop,
- 2. A flat top smface drop,
- 3. A center-of-gravity (cg) over top edge drop,
- 4. A cg over top corner drop, and
- 5. A flat side drop.
Illustrntions of these orientations me provided in Figures 2.10.5-1 through 2.10.5-5.
Preliminary drop testing provided damage information for various drop orient<Jtions for both the 30-foot and puncture drop. The results of the preliminary tests are provided in Appendix G of the first LAW PEA report.
IOCFR7 l requires that the HAC evaluntion be based on sequenti<1I applicntion of the tests specified to determine their cumulative effect on a package; thus, one must consider first a 30-foot drop m1d then a puncture drop in the orientation yielding the most damage to meet HAC requirements.
Thus, the accumulated damage due the regulatory sequence of events is the summation of the 30-foot drop damage mid the puncture drop damage in the same location. Using the FEA results and the puncture depths from the preliminary test series, the total deflection for the five orientations presented me:

5.566 CG over Top Comer 11.22 Estimated <3.375" **
14.595
>$'5 These estinrntes are based on the fact that the thickness of foam encountered by the puncture pin for these orientations is signific<1ntly greater than that encountered for the Fl<lt Bottom Drop.
(
From this data, three combinations of drops were selected for consideration:
- 1. cg-over-top corner 30-foot drop and a top cover puncture
- 2. cg-over-top corner 30-foot drop and a side puncture
- 3. side drop and a side puncture.
While the Flat Top Drop received the most damage from the puncture test, the location of the damage (the top cover) is weJJ protected by polyurethane foam and the gap between the outer lid and the secondary lid. Thus, combination l was ruled out.
For the 30-foot drop condition, the cg over corner drop yields the highest deflection (11.22") nnd stresses (40 ksi). For the puncture drop, the side location has less protection against puncture (fibrous insulation only) and also has a thinner steel skin that either the top or bottom. However, the flat side drop orientation produces minimal deflection (less than W') for the 30-foot drop, and any tearing of the skin due to impact is expected to be minimnl and away from the cg elevation.
Previous tests have demonstrated that puncture damage is primarily dependant upon the skin of the package. A sufficiently thick and ductile sk:it1 tends to distribute the lond and stretch, absorbing the energy of impact. The preliminary test results demonstrate that the skin of the LR is thick rmd ductile enough to prevent penetration of the puncture pin. If the skin not torn at the puncture impact location prior to the test, the results for the 30-foot side drop followed by a side puncture are essentially the same results that would be obtained had the 30-foot drop been omitted, particularly since the response is not dependant on the presence of a structural insulation. Therefore, combination 3 was eliminated from consideration.
Thus, Combination 2 was selected for the final test series, since it provides the most damage for the 30-foot drop and the most damage for the puncture drop.
Conclusions Based on the preliminary drop test series and the FEA results, it is Eco-Pak' s opinion that the most damaging sequence of drops for the final test series is <l cg over top corner 30-foot drop followed by a side puncture drop (cg over puncture pin).

Eco-Pak Liqui-Rad-250 Container Side Drop Stress Analysis Law Engineering and Environmental Services (LAW) Project No. 30100-1-0512 (Reference to LAW report No. 10810-9-7003, Phase 12 dated November 12, 1999)
Dear Ms. Jones:
As authorized by signing our Proposal/Work Acceptance Sheet (Proposal No. 3199-0-0000-2071), Law Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. (LAW) is pleased to present this report of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) results for the Liqui-Rad-250 container side drop test. The purpose of this analysis was to detennine by analytical means the approximate stresses and deflections that would result in the subject container when a 30-foot side drop test is perfonned, and then compare FEA results with the results of other 30-foot drop tests. This report provides our understanding of the background infonnation, services perfonned, and the results.
Background Information Cohunbiana Boiler Company received a communication from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on 5/15/01, in refurence to the 30-foot Liqui-Rad-250 container drop test. Please see tl1e copy of the NRC questions on the "structural evaluation" in Appendix "B". The Columbiana Boiler Company requested LAW to perfonn an analytical engineering analysis for the side drop test position, and to detennine the approximate stresses and deflections of the container from the FEA results, and then compare these results with the other previous drops test results. Please refurence our previous report dated November 12, 1999 for the previous drop LAW Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc.

Page2 results. Ms. Rose Montgomery of Montgomery Technical Services (MTS) supplied the sketch of the side drop package orientation to LAW, and the copy of the sketch is attached in Appendix "B".
Services Performed The subject container has various stmctural components such as angle frames, legs, outer and inner shells, top and bottom heads, and top and bottom plates. 111ese components are constructed from carbon steel and stainless steel materials. From the drawings, an FEA computer model was constrncted using plate elements. Please note that, in our computer model, we only included the structural components since they support the majority of the impact load during a 30-foot drop test. The following plate material properties were assumed in the FEA analysis:
Plate Material Carbon Steel Stainless Steel Plate Thickness Varies Varies E =Young's Modulus 30,000 ksi 28,300 ksi Poison's Ratio 0.29 0.25 Density 0.283 lbs/cu. inch 0.283 lbs/cu. inch G, Shear Modulus 11,630 ksi 11,320 ksi We calculated the impact load as a result of a 30-foot drop test. The following assumptions were made to calculate the impact load:
+ Container dropped on a rigid steel plate, no deflection or defonnation in the steel plate
+ Container weight = 2600 pounds
+ Load weight (salt water) =2504 pounds
+ Total weight of container (folly loaded) = 5104 pounds
+ Velocity of container at impact = 5 29 inch/sec.
The top and bottom angles are connected to the top and bottom plate (diaphragms) while the vertical angle legs are not connected to the container stmcture. As a result, the calculated impact load was applied on the top and bottom side angles considering the stiflhess of the structure. The impact load was distributed equally on the computer model nodes located on the top and bottom side angles that would come in contact with the rigid steel

diaphragm plates. We applied the appropriate constraints or bolllldary conditions on the computer model. From the results of the side drop test analysis, we compared the results with other drop tests, which were analyzed before and reported in our previous report.
From field data, approximate maximwn deflection in the container after impact test was measured as follows:
For flat bottom drop test = 1.25" For flat top drop test = 1bis test was not perfonned For edge drop test== >2" For top comer drop test= 12" For side drop test= 1bis test was not perfom1ed The above field data was collected from the drop tests perfunned on May 12, 1999 by l'vlr. Mike Arnold and Ms.
Heather Little.
Results Obtained The FEA analysis results show stress values linearly proportional to strain values. The difference between the actual stress and a pseudo stress value when the stress value is greater than the yield stress limit was explained in our previous report The strain corresponding to the pseudo stress was used to estimate actual stress values from a straight line approximation of the stress-strain curve between the yield strength and minimwn tensile strength of the material.
The following material properties were assmned for ASTM A-36 material:
Assumed Yield Strength ;:;; 36 ksi Yollllg's Modulus= 30,000 ksi Strain at Yield stress= 0.0012 in/in Calculations were performed for two extreme cases of Ultimate Tensile Strength of 58 and 80 ksi, representing the minimwn and maximwn values for A-36 steel.

Eco-Pak Liqui-Rad-250 Container Drop Test Law Engineering and Environmental Services Project 10810-9-7003, Phase 12
Dear Mr. Arnold:
As authorized by your purchase order number 6573 and by signing our annual Proposal Acceptance Sheet, Law Engineering and Environmental Services (LAW) is pleased to present this report of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for the Eco-Pak Liqui-Rad-250 container drop test. The purpose of this analysis was to detennine which 30-foot drop test, out of four tests, would cause the most damage to the container. Four drop test positions of the container are described below.
This repmt provides our understanding of the background information, a service petformed, and results.
Background Information Eco-Pak Specialty Packaging personnel had a meeting with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in reference to the 30-foot Liqui-Rad-250 container drop test. As a result of that meeting, Ms. Heather Little of Eco-Pak Specialty Packaging requested LAW to perform an engineering analysis for four drop test positions, and to determine from the FEA analysis results which drop test position would be the most damaging to the container. Eco-Pak Specialty Packaging provided information regarding four positions of the 30-foot drop test as follows:
+ Flat bottom sutface drop
+ Flat top surface drop
+ Center of gravity over top edge drop
+ Center of gravity over top comer drop LAW Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc.

I Eco.Pak Specially Pacliaging LEES Project 10810-9*7003. Phase 12 11112199 Page 2 Please note that prior to this analysis LAW had completed the center of gravity location evaluation for the subject container.
We were provided the following drawings:
+ Preliminary Design Arrangement for the Eco-Pak Liqui-Rad-250, Drawing NO. 111898/250 Sheet I of2
+ Preliminary Design Arrangement for the Eco-Pak Liqui-Rad-250, Drawing NO. 111898/250 Sheet 2of2 Services Performed The subject container has various structural components such as angle frames, legs, outer and inner shells, top and bottom heads, and top and bottom plates. These components are constructed from carbon steel and stainless steel materials. From the drawings, an FEA computer model was constructed using plate elements. Please note that, in our computer model, we included the structural components since they support the majority of the impact load during a 30-foot drop test. The following plate material properties were assumed in the FEA analysis:

+ Container dropped on a rigid steel plate, no deflection or defonnation in the steel plate
+ Container weight "" 2600 pounds
+ Load weight (salt water) =2504 pounds
Eco-Pak Specialty Packaging LEES Project 10810-9-7003, Phase 12
+ Total weight of-container (fully loaded) = 5104 pounds
+ Velocity of container before impact= 529 inch/sec. 11112199 Page3 For the FEA stress analysis, the calculated impact load was distributed equally on the computer mcxlel ncxles that would come in contact with the steel plate. The impact load was applied on different ncxles depending on the drop test. We also applied the constraints or boundary conditions on the computer mcxlel by fixing the ncxles located furthest distance from the impact location. The fixing ncxles were different depending on the drop test. From the results of our analysis, the resultant calculated maximum deflection was compared to the field measured maximum deflection for each drop test.
From field data, approximate maximun1 deflection in the container after impact test was measured as follows:
For flat bottom drop test= 1.25" For flat top drop test = This test was not perfonned For edge drop test= >2" For top comer drop test = 12" The above field data was collected from the drop tests performed on May 12, 1999. Please refer to the memo from Ms. Heather Little and Mr. Mike Arnold, attached with this report in Appendix G.
Results Obtained That FEA analysis result shows stress values linearly proportional to strain values. As explained in Figure 1 of Appendix F, attached to this report, the stress higher than the yield stress does not represent the actual stress but a pseudo stress value. The strain corresponding to the pseudo stress was used to estimate actual stress values from a straight line approximation of the stress-strain curve.
The following material properties were assumed for ASTM A-36 material:
Assumed Yield Strength = 36 ksi Young's Modulus= 30,000 ksi Strain at Yield stress = 0.0012 in/in
