PIPE SUPPORT BASE PLATE DESIGNS USING CONCRETE EXPANSI Description of Circumstances:

The supplement to IE Bulletin No. 79-02 is intended to establish criteria for the evaluation of interim acceptability of plant operation with less than the design factors of safety for piping supports due to as-built problems, under design, base plate flexibility, or anchor bolt deficAencies.

In the reviews for system operability of the Duane Arnold and Crystal River facilities, criteria have been developed by the NRC staff that defines pipe support The criteria has been applied in lieu of other analysis or evalua-Specifically, the licensees identified problems with pipe supports in which operability.

the original design factors of safety were not met but some le tion.

installation objectives but systems may be classed as operable on an interim basis available.

with some lesser margin providing a program of restoration to at least theFac Bulletin factors of safety has been developed.

operability criteria are considered to probably require a Technical Specifica-tion exception and will require review on a case by case basis.

Action to be Taken by Licensees:

for the following two cases, plant operation may continue or may begin:

For the support as a unit, the factor of safety compared to ulti-mate strengths is less than the original design but equal to or greater a.

than two.

For the anchor bolts the factor of safety is equal to or greater than b.two and for the support steel the original design factor of safety com-pared to ultimate strengths i al
