SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON 3F.1 INTRODUCTION The Franklin Research Center, under contract to the NRC, compared the structural design codes and loading criteria used in the design of the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant against the corresponding codes and criteria currently used for licensing of new plants at the time of the Systematic Evaluation Program (SEP). The current and older codes were compared para-graph by paragraph to determine what effects the code changes could have on the load carry-ing capacity of individual structural members.

The scope of the review was confined to the comparison of former structural codes and crite-ria with counterpart current requirements. Correspondingly, the assessment of the impact of changes in codes and criteria was confined to what can be deduced solely from the provisions of the codes and criteria.

In order to carry out the code review objective of identifying criteria changes that could potentially impair perceived margins of safety, the following scheme of classifying code change impacts was used.

Where code changes involved technical content (as opposed to those which are editorial, organizational, administrative, etc.), the changes were classified according to the following scheme.

Each such code change was classified according to its potential to alter perceived margins of safety a in structural elements to which it applied. Four categories were established:

  • Scale A Change - The new criteria have the potential to substantially impair margins of safety as perceived under the former criteria.
  • Scale AX Change - The impact of the code change on margins of safety is not immediately apparent. Scale AX code changes require analytical studies of model structures to assess the potential magnitude of their effect upon margins of safety.
  • Scale B Change - The new criteria operate to impair margins of safety but not enough to cause engineering concern about the adequacy of any structural element.
  • Scale C Change - The new criteria will give rise to larger margins of safety than were exhibited under the former criteria.

This appendix is the summary of the code comparison findings. It has been reproduced directly from Appendix B to the Franklin Research Center Report, TER-C5257-322, Design Codes, Design Criteria and Loading Combinations (SEP Topic III-7.B), R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, dated May 27, 1982, which was transmitted by letter to RG&E from the NRC, dated January 4, 1983.

a. That is, if (all other considerations remaining the same) safety margins as computed by the older code rules were to be recomputed for an as-built structure in accordance with current code provisions, would there be a difference due only to the code change under consideration.

Requirement of minimum shear reinforcement provides for ductil-ity and restrains inclined crack growth in the event of unexpected loading.

11.7 Non-prestressed members Detailed provisions for this load through combination were not part of ACI 11.8.6 318-63. These new sections pro-vide a conservative logic which requires that the steel needed for torsion be added to that required for transverse shear, which is con-sistent with the logic of ACI 318-63.

This is not considered to be criti-cal, as ACI 318-63 required the designer to consider torsional stresses; assuming that some ratio-nal method was used to account for torsion, no problem is expected to arise.

SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON 11.9 Deep beams Special provisions for shear through stresses in deep beams is new. The 11.9.6 minimum steel requirements are similar to the ACI 318-63 require-ments of using the wall steel lim-its.

Deep beams designed under previ-ous ACI 318-63 criterion were reinforced as walls at the mini-mum and therefore no unrein-forced section would have resulted.

11.10 Slabs and footings New provision for shear reinforce-through ment in slabs or footings for the 11.10.7 two-way action condition and new controls where shear head rein-forcement is used.

Logic consistent with ACI 318-63 for these conditions and change is not considered major.

11.11.1 1707 Slabs and footings The change which deletes the old requirement that steel be consid-ered as only 50% effective and allows concrete to carry 1/2 the allowable for two-way action is new. Also deleted was the require-ment that shear reinforcement not be considered effective in slabs less than 10 in. thick.

Change is based on recent research which indicates that such rein-forcement works even in thin slabs.

ACI 301-63 bases proportioning for "working stress concrete" on the specified strength plus 15 percent with no mention of standard deviation. High standard deviations in cylinder test results could require more than 15 percent under ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) 3.8.2.2 309d Mix proportions could give ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) requires 3.8.2.3 lower strength concrete more strength tests than ACI 301-63 for evaluation of strength and bases the strength to be achieved on the standard deviation of strength test results.

ACI 301-63 simply requires "strength adequate for the intended purpose." If "adequate for the intended purpose" is less than 85 percent of the specified strength, lower strength concrete could be used.

ACI 301-63 specifies that either 20 percent (1702a) or 10 percent (1703a) of the strength tests can be below the specified strength. Just how far below is not noted.

15.2.6.1 1502b1 Weaker tendon bond possible ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) requires fine aggregate in grout when sheath is more than four times the tendon area.

ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) allows waiver of size requirement if the architect-engineer believes the concrete can be placed and consol-idated.

3.8.2.1 309b Higher strength from better ACI 301-63 bases proportioning proportioning for "ultimate strength" concrete on the specified strength plus 25%.

ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) bases proportioning on the specified strength plus a value determined from the standard deviation of test cylinder strengths. The require-ment to exceed the specified strength by 25% gives higher strengths than the standard devia-tion method.

4.4.2.2 404c Better bond to reinforcement ACI 301-63 provides that form gives better strength coating be applied prior to placing reinforcing steel.

ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) omits this requirement. If form coating con-tacts the reinforcement, no bond will develop.

This could allow termination of cure too soon.

1975).

15.2.1.2 1502-c2 Higher strength from better ACI 301-63 requires that stress prestressing steel curves from the production lot of steel be furnished.

ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) requires that a typical stress-strain curve be submitted. The use of the typical curve may miss lower strength material.

16.3.4.3 1602-4c Better strength resulting from ACI 301-63 requires 3 cylinders to better cylinder tests be tested at 28 days; if a cylinder is damaged, the strength is based on the average of two.

ACI 301-72 (Rev. 1975) requires only two 28-day cylinders; if one is damaged, the strength is based on the one survivor.

16.3.4.4 1602-4d Better strength, less chance of ACI 301-63 requires that less than substandard concrete 100 yd3 of any class of concrete placed in any one day be repre-sented by 5 tests.

Table 1506 Containment (load combina- Definition of loads and load combi-CC-3230-1 tions and applicable load nations along with new load factors factor)* has altered the traditional analysis requirements.

CC-3421.5 Containment and other ele- New concept. There is no compara-ments transmitting in-plane ble section in ACI 318-63, i.e., no shear specific section addressing in-plane shear. The general concept used here (that the concrete, under cer-tain conditions, can resist some shear, and the remainder must be carried by reinforcement) is the same as in ACI 318-63.

Concepts of in-plane shear and shear friction were not addressed in the old codes and therefore a check of old designs could show some significant decrease in overall pre-diction of structural integrity.

CC-3421.6 1707 Peripheral shear in the These equations reduce to region of concentrated forces normal to the shell when membrane surface stresses are zero, which compares to ACI 318-63, Sections 1707 (c) and (d) which address "punching" shear in slabs and footings with the factor taken care of in the basic shear equation (Section CC-3521.2.1, Eqn. 10).

Previous code logic did not address the problem of punching shear as related to diagonal tension, but control was on the average uniform shear stress on a critical section.

See case study 12 for details.

SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON CC-3421.7 921 Torsion New defined limit on shear stress due to pure torsion. The equation relates shear stress from a biaxial stress condition (plane stress) to the resulting principal tensile stress and sets the principal tensile stress equal to . Previous code superimposed only torsion and transverse shear stresses.

See case study 13 for details.

CC-3421.8 Bracket and corbels New provisions. No comparable section in ACI 318-63; therefore, any existing corbels or brackets may not meet these criteria and failure of such elements could be non-ductile type failure.

CC-3532.1.2 Where biaxial tension exists ACI 318-63 did not consider the problem of development length in biaxial tension fields.

CC-3900 Concrete containment* New design criteria. ACI 318-63 All sections did not contain design criteria for in this chap- loading such as impulse or missile ter impact. Therefore, no comparison is possible for this section.

Scale B CC-3320 Shells Added explicit design guidance for concrete reactor vessels not stated in the previous code.

Acceptance of elastic behavior as the basis for analysis is consistent with the logic of the older codes.

CC-3340 Penetrations and openings Added to ensure the consideration of special conditions particular to concrete reactor vessels and con-tainments.

These conditions would have been considered in design practice even though not specifically referred to in the old code.

ACI 318-63 used 0.003 in./in. as the maximum concrete compres-sive strain at ultimate strength.

CC-3421.4.1 1701 Containment and any section Modified and amplified from ACI carrying transverse shear 318-63, Section 1701.1.

Both codes intend to control the principal tensile stress.

CC-3422.1 1508(b) Reinforcing steel ACI 318-63 allowed higher fy if full scale tests show adequate crack control.

Page 764 of 769 Revision 28 5/2019

GINNA/UFSAR Appendix 3F

SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON The requirement for tests where fy

> 60 ksi was used would provide adequate assurance, in old design, that crack control was maintained.

CC-3422.1 1503(d) All ordinary reinforcing ACI 318-63 allowed stress for load steel resisting purposes was fy. How-ever, a capacity reduction factor of 0.9 was used in flexure.

Therefore, allowable tensile stress due to flexure could be interpreted as limited to some percentage of fy less than 1.0 fy and greater than 0.9 fy.

Limiting the allowable tensile stress to 0.9 fy is in effect the same as applying a capacity reduction factor of 0.9 to the theoretical equation.

CC-3422.1 All ordinary reinforcing ACI 318-63 had no provision to steel cover limiting steel strains; there-fore, this section is completely new.

Traditional concrete design prac-tice has been directed at control of stresses and limiting steel percent-ages to control ductility.

The logic of providing a control of design parameters at the centroid of all the bars in layered bar arrange-ment is consistent with older codes and design practice.

CC-3422.2 1503(d) Stress on reinforcing bars ACI 318-63 allowed the compres-sive steel stress limit to be fy; how-ever, the capacity reduction factor for tied compression members was

= 0.70 and for spiral ties = 0.75, applied to the theoretical equation.

As this overall reduction for such members is so large, part of the reduction could be considered as reducing the allowable compres-sive stress to some level less than fy; therefore, the 0.9 fy limit here is consistent with and reasonably similar to the older code.

CC-3423 2608 Tendon system stresses ACI 318-63 Section 2608 is gener-ally less conservative.

SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON CC-3431.3 Shear, torsion, and bearing ACI 318-63 does not have a strictly comparable section; however, the 50% reduction of the ultimate strength requirements on shear and bearing stresses to get the working stress limits is identical to the ACI 318-63 logic and requirements.

CC-3521 Reinforced concrete Membrane forces in both horizon-tal and vertical directions are taken by the reinforcing steel, since con-crete is not expected to take any tension. Tangential shear in the inclined direction is taken, up to Vc by the concrete, and the rest by the reinforcing steel. In all cases, the ACI concept of is incorpo-rated in the equation as 0.9. While not specifically indicating how to design for membrane stresses, ACI 318-63 indicated the basic prem-ises that tension forces are taken by reinforcing steel (and not concrete) and that concrete can take some shear, but any excess beyond a cer-tain limit must be taken by rein-forcing steel.

CC-3521.2.1 1701 Nominal shear stress Similar to ACI 318-63, with the exception of , which equals 0.85, being included in the Eqn. 17.

SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON Placing in the stress formula, rather than in the formulae for shear reinforcement, provides the same end result.

CC-3532 Where bundled bars are used Bundled bars were not commonly used prior to 1963; therefore, no criteria were specified in ACI 318-63.

In more recent codes, identical requirements are specified for bun-dled bars.

2 in ACI 318-63, over that nor-mally permitted. Slightly less con-servative than ACI 318-63. This is not considered critical since good design practice has always avoided bar cutoff in tension zones.

bond strength = tensile strength If then With = 0.85 No change in basic philosophy for

CC-3532.3 919(h) Hooked bars Change in format. New values are 801 similar for small bars and more conservative for large bars and higher yield strength bars. Not con-sidered critical since prior to 1963 the use of fy > 40 ksi steel was not common.

SUMMARY

OF STRUCTURAL DESIGN CODE COMPARISON Appendix II Concrete reactor vessels ACI 318-63 did not contain any criteria for compressive strength modification for multiaxial stress conditions. Therefore, no compari-son is possible for Section II-1100.

Because of this, ACI 318-63 was more conservative by ignoring the strength increase which accompa-nies triaxial stress conditions.

This section probably does not apply to concrete containment structures.

CC-3531 All Rather conservative for service loads. Using of 0.9 for flexure, for ACI 318-63. By using the value of 2.0, the upper limit of the ratio of factored to service loads is employed.

  • Special treatment of load and load combinations is addressed in other sections of the report.
