Model No. CNSI-14-195L Occket No. 71-9097 Encl to ltr dtd: SEP 101979 Revise the analysis for the free drop to include the following:

1.

Show that the stresses in the primary containment system under the end, side, or oblique impact loading do not exceed material static yield stress at elevated temperature by taking the following comments into consideration:

In the g-load analysis, the material strain rate effects on plastic yield or flow stress should be considered. The same also applies to the material strainhardening and compressive cross-sectional area increase effects if large strain is involved and multi-axial lead stress effects.

- Effects of multiple stress components on material yielding should be considered in the stress evaluation.

2.

Show that the integrity of the cask structure can be maintained under the impact loading at low temperature. Note that materials such as carbon steel become brittle at icw temperatures.
