DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 1 INTRODUCTION g
(
This report presents the results of studies performed to determine the loca-tions and characteristics of leak pathways between tendon sheaths H32-009 and H32-011, and the exterior face of the Unit 2 Containment building wall.
The report also discusses the repair of these leaks which was based on the study findings. Finally, the report describes the installation and greasing of the two tendons following repair of the leaks.
4 Studies of the leak locations and characteristics spanned the period from November 1982 through January 1983.
Grouting of the leak pathways was con-ducted during the week of April 4, 1983, and the subject tendons were installed and greased during the week of April 18, 1983.
1 The results of the air and water testing conclusively demonstrated the absence of large voids within the concrete of the Containment. building wall; test results showed the leaks to be confined to narrow localized path-ways. Testing also demonstrated that cement grouting of the leak pathways would be an effective repair procedure.
The grouting successfully sealed the area around the tendon sheaths and per-mitted tendon installation, stressing, and greasing to proceed. The low rates of grout penetration in the leak pathways further verified the absence of open channels or cavities.
Tendons H32-009 and H32-011 were installed, stressed, and greased success-fully following grouting af,ter sufficient cure time and verification testing.
These subjects are discussed in detail in the following sections of this e
\\
report.
The report is accompanied by figures and tables which illustrate the dis-cussion. Approved procedures for air and water testing, as well as for grouting, are attached as appendices A and D, respectively.
Instrument calibration certificates, sample data sheets, and test reports on grout samples are also attached as appendices.

2 BACKGROUND After each tendon in the Containment building wall has been installed and tensioned, the specification requires the sheath containing the tendon to 4
be pumped full of grease to protect the tendon from corrosion. Often, several tendons are greased simultaneously. As part of the greasing pro-cedure, a preliminary air test of each sheath is routinely performed prior to greasing to assure that the sheath will hold the grease and will not i
permit uncontrolled escape of grease. Where air leakage is noted between two sheaths, these sheaths are usually greased together to assure complete filling with grease.
Tendons H32-009 and H32-011 are horizontal tendons which extend from but-tress no. 3 to buttress no. 2.
Figure 1 is a schematic plan of the layout.
Figure 2 is an elevation view of these tendons in the area of the main steam pipe penetrations. When these tendons had been installed and tensioned, the preliminary air tests conducted prior to greasing showed that air was escaping from one sheath'and emerging in the other, as well as escaping to the out-side through a crack in the exterior surface of the concrete wall. The location of this crack was in the 6-inch seismic gap between the Containment wall and the Main Steam Support Structure (MSSS). The location of this crack is shown in figure 2.
The same result was obtained when pumping air into either sheath.
It should be noted that, because of the extreme inaccessibility of the loca-tion, normal means of investigating the crack were not feasible. A limited amount of chipping was performed from a nearby penetration in the MSSS to
('
better expose the crack, but this added relatively little to the state of knowledge of the problem. A small core hole was drilled into the Contaia-s ment wall adjacent to penetration no. 3 (see figure 2) but this also was inconclusive. Based on these findings a program of investigation was devised to. study the nature and extent of the problem by indirect means, as well as to devise a means of greasing the two subject tendons without uncon-trolled escape of grease.

SUMMARY
OF CONCLUSIONS
- v Conclusions derived from the investigations, grouting work, and experience installing, stressing, and greasing tendons H32-009 and H32-011 are as follows:
A.
Each of the two tendon sheaths initially had a single leak extending for a distance of several feet in each sheath. The locations of the leaks are described in section 4.4.1.
B.
The leak system exited the Containment wall at several locations, the most significant being a visible crack in the chipped area (see figure 6).
C.
The testing conclusively demonstrated the absence of large voids in the leak system. The leaks were shown to be confined to narrow pathways.
D.
The total volume of the leak system was conservatively demon-strated to be approximately 5-3/4 cubic feet.
E.
The leak system extended no higher in the wall than approximately elevation 134 feet.
F.
There was no measurable quantity of water left in the wall fol-
-~g lowing testing.
G.
Approximately 5 cubic feet of grout was injected into the wall in two stages effectively sealing the leak pathways and permitting tendon installation, stressing, and greasing to proceed.
H.
Tendons H32-009 and H32-011 were installed, stressed, and greased during the week of April 18, 1983. There were no problems encountered during greasing and no traceable escaping of grease from either tendon sheath.
I.
Tendens H32-009 and H32-011 are expected to perform as well as other tendons with respect to corrosion.

4 INVESTIGATION OF THE LEAK SYSTEM 1
-4.1 CONCEPT OF THE LEAK TESTING i
Testing was required to provide two types of information, the first being the locations of the leaks inside tendon sheaths H32-009 and H32-011, and the second being the characteristics of the leak system between these leak-ing sheaths and the ultimate exit points of the leak system at the outside face of the Containment wall.
The characteristics of the leak system were s
determined for two reasons:
i A.
To verify the absence of large voids in the wall.
1 B.
To devise an effective means of repair.
The testing program was accordingly divided into two parts.
The first part consisted of detailed incremental air testing of the entire length of each t
sheath to determine the precise locations of the leaks. Having established i
this, the second part consisted of isolating the leaking sections of the sheaths and pumping first air and then water through the leak system to map out all exit points and to study the flow characteristics through the leak pathways. These two phases of the testing program are discussed in greater 1
detail below.
4.1.1 LOCATING OF LEAKS INSIDE THE' TENDON SHEATHS
/
In order to incrementally isolate sections of the tendon sheaths for air testing, a system of inflatable rubber packers was devised. As shown in figure 4.,
the packer system consisted of two cylindrical inflatable rubber i
packers connected by a chain and having a' tow line and tail line attached to the front and rear packers reapectively. The packers were inflated by means of an air line to the rear packer from the air supply, and a second air line i
connecting the two packers. Air or water could be introduced into the space between the two packers through a supply line plumbed through the interior of the rear packer. The forward packer is equipped with identical interior i
plumbing but this was plugged for these tests.
The entire assembly was moved in increments by towing it through the sheath,
~ then positioned and the packers inflated to isolate a test section. After inflation, air pressure'was applied to the isolated portion and leak rates were recorded by noting pressure changes with respect to time. Upon l
encountering more than a nominal amount of leakage (that which could be i
entirely attributed to leakage within the packer. system), the packer assembly was moved back and forth in even smaller-increments to bracket the leaking section to a tolerance of within plus or minus one foot. This pro-
.cedure was employed in both sheaths H32-009 and H32-011, and the leaks were successfully located in each.

4.1.2 DETERMINATIONS OF LEAK PATHS AND FLOW CHARACTERISTICS Having accurately determined the locations of the leaking portions of the j
two sheaths,-air and water testing of the leak pathways was conducted. This testing employed the packer systems described above, but rather than intro-ducing air through the rear packer to the test interval from a source at i
buttress no. 2, air and then water were introduced in the space between j
packers through existing tendon sheathing vent and drain fittings with both
(
packers plugged.
In the case of sheath H32-009, access was through a drain
)
j line which entered the bottom of the sheath within the leaking interval.
j For sheath H32-011 access was provided by a vent line which entered the i
sheath in the leaking interval. These features are shown schematically in figure 5.
Both the vent and drain lines exited the Containment building wall at accessible locations in the adjacent wrap-around portion of the Auxiliary building (see figure 1).
The vent.and drain lines were plumbed to a special manifold constructed for the purpose of_the testing. The manifold incorporated the instrumentation i
and controls for monitoring both air and water flow into the leaking por-tions of the tendon sheaths. Flow could be controlled to either sheath separately or both sheaths _ together. Flow could also be reversed and j
drained back through the manifold with measurements taken. Figure 5 illus-j trates the manifold setup schematically.
i The packer assemblies were moved into place in both sheaths at locations at t
which the leaking intervals were bracketed and the packers were sealed in good airtight sections of the sheaths. The packers were inflated to,
isolate the leaks from the rest of the sheaths.
i s
l Appendix A to this report presents the approved test procedures which t
governed the ccaduct of this stage of the investigation. The first in this i
series of tests involved pumping air from the manifold into the leaking sec-i tions of both sheaths simultaneously while monitoring pressures both at the manifold and at the injection point to each sheath. Escape of air through the leak pathways was monitored and mapped out by teams of observers sta-tioned at strategic locations in the MSSS near the major pipe penetrations and adjacent to the edges of the MSSS at the seismic gap with the Contain-l ment wall (see figures 1 and 2).
The observers detected escaping air by inserting probes,with flagging on the end into the seismic gap between the i
MSSS and Containment building. The observers recorded the locations of' air leaks with respect to established points on the MSSS.
i l'
After pumping air into both sheaths simultaneously, the air was then pumped into one sheath while the pressure in the other' sheath was monitored. This process was repeated for both sheaths to check for cross-communication between the sheaths.
Following the air test, five successive tests were performed using water as i
the flow medium. These water tests used the same packer and manifold set up as the air test with the addition of vertical manometer tubes to monitor water elevation in the leak system. One manometer tube was employed for 4-2 u
DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 each sheath. Water was pumped into either one or both sheaths while flow
(#^)
rates, volumes, pressures, and elevation were recorded versus time.
As in m/
the air test, teams of observers accurately measured the locations of water s
leaks on the outside of the Containment wall, and estimated the rate of leakage at each location. Observers at the buttresses monitored the packer inflation pressure as well as any water leakage through the sheaths. All observations were recorded with time so that the sequence of water leak observations could be compared with the time-history of water injection.
Sample data sheets are included as appendix B to this report.
Upon reaching a steady-state condition in which the rate of injection equaled the estimated rate of leakage, the flow was discontinued and the direction reversed with the water allowed to drain back through the leak system and out of a drain at the manifold while measurement recording continued. The volume of water recovered from the system was then compared to the volume injected plus the volume lost through leaks to determine whether there was any water left in storage in the system.
4.2 EQUIPMENT AND INSTRUMENTATION The layout of equipment and instrumentation is shown schematically in fig-ures 3 through 5.
The following paragraphs describe pertinent features of the equipment and instruments.
The key pieces of equipment for successful testing were the packer systems, because without an effective means of isolating the leaks within the tendon sheaths, no definitive testing would have been possible. The packer systems consisted of two pairs of packers attached by means of chains and air lines
)
as described earlier and as shown in figures 3 and 4.
The packers consist of cylindrical inflatable rubber elements claaped to a rigid steel tube with end caps. The overall length of each packer is approximately 3 feet and the uninflated diameter is 3-1/2 inches.
The packers come -Irom the manufacturer, Diamond Drill Contracting of Seattle, t
Washington, with a smooth rubber outer surface to provide the seal when inflated.
Initial trials showed that this was not sufficient to seal inside the sheath due to the spiral corrugations of the sheath. Experimentation demonstrated that the addition of three or more flexible rubber "0" rings positioned over the cylindrical rubber element and spaced evenly provided an effective seal against the sheath corrugations when the packer was inflated. Each of the four packers was modified in this manner with the "0" rings held in place by a flexible glue. Prior to insertion in the sheaths the packers were liberally coated with grease (the approved sheathing filler).
Internal packer pressure was controlled and monitored at all times by means of a regulator and pressure gauge in the supply line located on the work platform at buttress no. 2.
The instrumentation and controls for the air testing of the sheaths are shown schematically in figure 4.
The air supply line to the test interval was provided with a regulator and pressure gauge at the work platform at buttress no. 2.

The instrumentation and controls for the air and water testing of the leak
'~'
pathways are shown schematically in figure 5.
Pressures were monitored by calibrated pressure gauges mounted on the manifold and at the injection points for each sheath. For sheath H32-009 the injection point was the sheath drain line where it exits the Containment wall in the Auxiliary building wrap-around, and for sheath H32-011 the injection point was the sheath vent line where it exits the wall in a similar location but higher in elevation.
The instrumentation selected for flow monitoring included a Hersey model MVR-30 water mater equipped with a Hersey Model R-38 pulser, electronically connected to a Hersey model 1020 digital flow rate indicator with volume totalizer. This system was specially calibrated by the manufacturer both before and after the testing. Calibration certificates are included as appendix C to this report.
A Hewlett-Packard 7132-A 2-channel strip chart recorder was connected to the accessory output jack on the flow rate indicator to provide a continuous graphic time-history of flow rate. This served as backup for manually recorded readings taken from the volume totalizer at 30-second intervals throughout tha tests.
Air and water flows were regulated by means of standard pressure regulators in the supply lines, and controlled by means of valves located as shown in figure 5.
(O
(
l Manometer tubes were used to monitor water elevation changes within the leak
_j system'as shown in figure 5.
These consisted of clear plastic vertical tubes attached to the outside of the Containment wall at the manifold loca-tion.
Elevations were rend from a tape attached to the wall alongside the manoreter tubes.
4.3 QUALITY PROGRAM Af ter successfully locating the leaks inside the sheaths all subsequent air and water testing of the leak pathways was conducted under the provisions of an approved quality control program. Procedures for the testing were extensively reviewed by Bechtel engineering, Bechtel construction, Bechtel l
and APS QC, and QA, Mr. John King, the project consultant, and APS engineer-ing. The NRC site representative also reviewed the procedures.
The approved procedures are included in appendix A.
As shown in the test procedures, the quality program included monitoring of test activities by a QC inspector.
Each step of each phase of testing was signed-off on the approved procedure as being successfully completed by the l
designated test director. At the end of each testing phase, the QC inspec-l tor verified that all required signatures had been obtained for that phase and then stamped the final signature position as accepting the work up to that point in the procedure.

appendix C.
4.4 TEST RESULTS 4.4.1 LOCATIONS OF TENDON SHEATH LEAKS j
The testing described in section 4.1.1 demonstrated the presence of a single leah in sheath H32-009, and a single leak in sheath H32-011.
In sheath j
H32-009 a large leak begins at approximately 91' 30' (see figure 2), con-tinues to 94', then tapers to a small leak which; terminates at approximately j
97* 40'.
In sheath H32-011, the leak begins as a small leak at 81' 15',
then increases to a large leak at approximately 83'.
This large leak. con-tinues to approximately 93* 10', where it decreases to a small leak ter-1 minating at about 98'.
I Locatica of the packer assembly was monitored during the test by measuring the distance, in feet, from the face of the concrete at the sheath portal at j
buttress no. 2.
These measurements were later converted to degrees for comparison with the engineering drawings of the Containment building.
4.4.2 AIR TESTING OF LEAK PATHWAYS Air testing of the leak pathways as described in section 4.1.2 verified 1
cross-ccumunication between the sheaths. Vigorous air flow vas observed escaping from the crack in the chipped area just belov and slightly to the north of penetratica no. 4 (see figure 2), and from the core hole drilled into the Containment wall adjacent to penetration no. 3.
The subsequent water tests discussed below proved to be a more positive indicator of addi-tional very small leak exits which were not detected during the air test.
4.4.3 WATER TESTING OF LEAK PATHWAYS A total of five water tests were performed as described in section 4.1.2.
j These tests provided information on the characteristics of the leak pathways as shown by flow rates, volumes, pressures, and elevation. The tests also
' revealed a number of leak exits at the face of the Containment wall not discovered during the air test.
Figure 6 is an elevation view similar to figure 2 which shows the locations of all leak exits on the Containment wall. Figure 6 is a composite of the results from all five tests. As is seen in figure 6, minor leakage occurred around the penetration sleeve at penetration no. 10 and along the construction joint in this area. Very minor seepage occurred around the i
sleeve at penetration no. 8.
Major leakage occurred from the crack in the chipped area and from the core hole adjacent. to penetration no. 3.
Minor seepage occurred around the sleeves in penetrations no. 2 and no. 3.

Table 1 presents a summary of five water tests. The table shows input flow
(N conditions, elapsed times between the start of each test and the observa-(m,)
tions of significant leaks, volumes injected when the leaks were cbserved, estimated rates of spillage, and volumes drained back from the leak system after shutting off water inflow.
The significance of this information is that in all tests, af ter adjusting for estimated spillage, the volume drained approximately equaled the volume pumped in within reasonable error limits.
This shows that no measurable quantity of water was left in the leak system after draining.
As discussed in section 4.1.2, manometer tubes were connected to the test piping to monitor water elevation during the tests. One manometer tube was connected to sheath H32-009 and one to sheath H32-011.
As the water level rose through the leak system the level in the clear plastic manometer l
tubes also rose, permitting a record to be made of the rate of rise.
l The rate of rise is a very important indicator of the nature of voids in the wall if such voids exist.
Upon encountering a void in the wall, the rate of rise of the water level should pause or slow down as the void fills.
When the void was full, the water level rise would resume.
This change in the rate of rise would be detected in the manometer tubes, and the elevation of the void would also be apparent.
In water tests 1 and 2, the manometer tubes were inaccurate due to ta'e con-figuration of the test plumbing system which caused misleading water level elevations to register in the tubes.
Some minor modifications were made and the manometer tube for sheath H32-009 was used successfully in tests 3, 4, and 5.
The manometer tube for sheath H32-011 continued to suffer the effects
(~N of head losses, and could not be successfully corrected due to the physical
()
limitations of the system. However, because of the cross-communication between the sheaths, the manometer tube for sheath H32-009 provided an accurate and couplete record of water level for the final three tests.
Tests 3, 4, and 5 conclusively demonstrated the absence of large voids in the leak system and showed that the leak system consisted of narrow, confined pathways.
Figures 7, 8, and 9 show the graphs of manometer elevation versus time for sheath H32-009 in tests 3, 4, and 5.
As can be seen from the curves, the history of rise between the filling of sheath H32-009 and the appearance of leakage in the chipped area is characterized by a steep, approximately straight line in all three tests.
If a large void was present in the system, the curves would flatten for the time it took to fill the void, then resume a steep climb. This feature is not observed in any of the test plots.
The curves do flatten following the appearance of leakage at the chipped area but this is due to the leakage itself.
In the first four water tests, when the water level rose to the elevation of the crack in the chipped area, all of the flow spilled from this crack and the water level in the system could not be raised further.
The core hole adjacent to penetration no. 3 was slightly higher than the elevation of the chipped area and water could not be driven up toward this higher elevation.
It was known from the air test that the leak system communicated wtLh this (Ov)
\\

DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 e'~'
core hole, so it was considered necessary to cause the water te leak out of
)
the core hole by raising its elevation inside the wall.
In addition, it was considered necessary to determine the highest elevation.of the leak system in the Containment wall.
To accomplish these objectives a special form was constructed to cover the chipped area in an attempt to seal the leakage and drive the water higher up the leak system inside the wall. This form was inserted in the seismic gap and braced against the MSSS wall.
Test 5 was performed with this form in place. Although minor leakage did occur from the formwork, the objective of raising the water level was achieved. Water was caused to spill from the core hole adjacent to pene-tration no. 3.
This core hole was then plugged and water continued to be pumped into the system with very careful monitoring of pressures. Almost immediately following the plugging of the core hole the leak system started to become pressurized, indicating the highest point in the system had been encountered. A slight amount of seepage was noted from around the sleeve in penetration no. 3 at an elevation slightly higher than the core hole.
As the pressure continued to increase, flow increased from leaks already encountered lower down oa the well indicating that no additional pathways for leakage existed in the system. Following this, flow was reversed and the systen drained.
Test 5 is considered to provide the most complete information and the most reliable characterization of the leak system. From the data collected in
()T test 3, the total volume of the leak pathways is shown to be en the order of
\\s_
5-3/4 cubic fcet. This was deterutned by comparing the volume of water pumped in with the volume of water required to fill the sheaths between the packers, the volume of water retained behind the form over the chipped area (determined from figure 'i), and the volume of water spilled through leaks.
The relative ease with which water could flow through the system indicated that cement grout could be injected into the leak pathways in order to pro-vide an adequate seal against uncontrolled escape of grease following ten-don stressing.

DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 5 REPAIR OF THE LEAK SYSTEM The testing program provided information which showed that cement grout could be pumped into the leak system to provide an adequate seal to permit greasing of the tendons without uncontrolled escape of grease.
Mr. John King, the project grouting consultant, assisted in the preparation of a grouting program which would accomplish this objective.
i Of primary concern was the need to effectively seal the area around the leaking tendon sheaths without permitting grout to set up inside the sheaths, thereby preventing the tendons from being installed.
For this reason it was decided to devise a means of grouting from the face of the Containment wall through the leaks and into the tendon sheaths. Upon encountering the sheaths the grout would need to be immediately prevented from penetrating further, or constantly removed, to prevent blockage of the sheaths. The easier grouting approach would have been to grout from the sheaths outward through the leaks, but since grout might set up in the sheaths, this was considered too risky.
To prevent grout invading and hardening in the sheaths it was decided to employ water pressure inside the sheaths at all times during grouting opera-tions. The water would be permittad to flow through the sheaths under con-trolled pressures which would be balanced with grouting pressures to achieve the desired results.
The following sections present a summary of the preparatory work, the grout-3 ing procedures employed, equipment and materials, quality program, results of grouting, results of post-grouting verification tests, and conclusions.
The official set of approved grcuting procedures are included as appendix D to this report.
f The grouting work was performed during the week of April 4, 1983, and resulted in the areas around tendon sheaths H32-009 and H32-011 being effectively sealed with no grout entering either sheath. Cross-communication between the two sheaths was also eliminated.
5.1 PREPARATORY WORK Having selected the grouting approach to be taken, it was necessary to do some preliminary work. This work consisted of drilling three 2-inch diameter coreholes into the Containment wall adjacent to penetration no. 10 (see fig-ure 10). The first of these holes was drilled to provide information on the leak pathways in the vicinity of the seepage observed in penetration no. 10 during the water tests. The additional holes were drilled immediately adjacent to the first to provide additional access for grouting.
The core holes are shown schematically in the sketch in figure 11.
The core sample taken from the first hole, drilled on a slight downward slope, i
revealed a system of rather confined and narrow leak pathways very close:to
(
the surface of the wall. Further into the wall, the core passed through the i

- 'N the underlying concrete lift where the hole then terminated. The core also

f
\\s_ l passed through the steel flange of the adjacent penetration sleeve.
Fror this information it was apparent that the hole would need to be sealcd at the surface of the wall in order to force the grout into the near-surface leak pathways. To accomplish this a steel plate was fabricated to fit over all three core hole openings with an edge seal which would surround the openings. The plate was fitted with a grout nipple for simultaneous grout-ing of the three holes.
A special form similar to the one used in water test no. 5 was fabricated to fit over the chipped area. This form also included a sealing gasket and a grout nipple, and was provided with a valved vent tube at the top.
The form could be lowered into place in the seismic gap, positioned over the chipped area, and braced against the MSSS wall.
A special plug, fitted with a valved vent tube, was inserted into the core hole adjacent to penetration no. 3.
The packer system used in the air and water tests was refitted with hoses leading to both buttress no. 2 and buttress no. 3 (see figure 12). With this setup, water could be pumped in from buttress no. 2 and drained to battress no. 3.
Additional water could be either drained or added between the packers from the sheath vent and drain lines controlled by the manifold devised for the water tests (see figure 12). This would permit close con-trol of water flows and pressures within the sheaths during grouting operations.
N-Eetween each pair of packers, a steel " rabbit" was attached to the connect-ing chain. These rabbits were designed to forceably clear any grout obstruction within the sheaths.
In this event, the packers could be deflated and the assembly moved back and forth rapidly to allow the rabbit to break through blockage.
Prior to grouting, the leak system was soaked with water to wet the narrow leak passages and to assist in grout curing. All free water was then drained back from the system.
5.2
SUMMARY
OF GROUTING PROCEDURES Detailed grouting procedures are given in appendix D.
This section pre-sents a summary of the pertinent features of the program.
For maximum grouting efficiency, a two-stage program was devised with the lower part of the leak system grouted in the first stage. The second stage involved grouting the upper part of the leak system after the first j
stage grout had set up.
l l O m
5-2
--~
7 DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 For Stage 1, grout was pumped through the plate over the core holes adjacent J
[N-/_)
to penetration no. 10, while water flowed through the sheaths.
Grout take was very low in this stage because of the confined nature of the leak path-ways in this area.
After the grout pumped in Stage 1 had taken an initial set, the formwork was installed over the chipped area in preparation for Stage 2.
The Stage 2 grouting consisted of pumping grout behind the form and into the crack in the chipped area while venting the leak system through the valved plug installed in the core hole adjacent to penetration no. 3, which was higher in elevation than the chipped area (see figure 11). Water flow was main-tained in the sheaths during these operations. Upon observation of grout at the vented core hole adjacent to penetration no. 3, the grout supply hose was disconnected from the form and connected to the vent in the core hole.
Grout was then injected at this location. Finally the grout hose was reconnected to the nipple in the form and pumping continued to refusal.
In both Stages 1 and 2 the initial grout mix was designed to produce a standard flowcone time of 13 12 seconds (per ASTM C939). The procedure called for thickening to an 18 2-second grout if the 13-second grout pene-trated easily. The 18-second grout would then be followed by a 25 13-second grout mix if the 18-second grout penetrated easily.
In Stage 1, refural was encountered with the initial 13-second mix.
In Stage 2, refusal occurred with the 18-recend mix.
Becaane of the coefined nature of the leak path-ways, the thicker 25-se:ond grout could not be used.
Upcn completion of grouting, the sheaths were flushed, the packers deflated,
(~'}
and the rabbits vere pelled back and forth through both sheaths. No evidence
\\s_,
of grout was fcund inside the sheaths either in the flush water or on the packers or rabbits.
5.3 GROUTING EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS The grout used is marketed under the name IN-PAKT by the Concrete Chemical Company of Cleveland, Ohio. This is a neat cement grout containing flyash, aluminum powder, and a water reducing retarder. At normal mix consistencies this grout will expand 3 to 5 percent at 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> after mixing when measured in accordance with ASTM C827. The mix temperature was maintained between 40 and 50 degrees by the use of ice as required.
The grout was mixed and delivered to the injection point by means of a Chemgrout double tub mixer equipped with a Moyno progressive cavity pump and recirculating line. Grout pressures were controlled by a valve and pressure gage at the injection point. A turbine-type flowmeter was initially used to measure grout volumes but rapidly became plugged and had to be removed from the line to continue grouting.
The leaking portions of tendon sheaths H32-009 and H32-011 were isolated by means of the same packer assemblies used for the air and water testing.
Water flow through the sheaths during grouting was controlled by means of the testing manifold described in section 4.1.2 and shown in figure 5.

r DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 5.4 QUALITY PROGRAM g
'As with the air and water testing, all grouting operations were performed under the provisions of an approved quality control program. A grouting procedure was first written up and then thoroughly reviewed by Bechtel, APS, Mr. John King, and the NRC site representative. After incorporating com-ments, the procedures were approved for use.
After satisfactorily completing each step of the grouting work, the designated grouting director would sign-off the approved procedures in a space adjacent to the description of each step. An independent QC inspector monitored the progress of the work and then affixed his stamp to the approved procedures after verifying that the grouting director had properly signed-off the work.
- Although grout strength was not of primary importance in the repair of the sheaths, grout samples were mixed and obtained both prior to, and during, the grouting work. The samples taken prior to the work were used to estab-lish compressive strengths with which to compare the samples taken during the work.'
The purpose of this was to demonstrate the consistency of the grout properties. The test results of both sets of grout samples compare quite well. These results are included in appendix E.
i i
5.5 RESULTS OF GROUTING i
Section 3.2 has described the conduct of the grouting work. As discussed in that section, Stage 1 grouting consisted of pumping grout into the core j
holes drilled in the Containment wall adjacent to penetration no. 10.
l Because of the very tight nature of the leak pathways in this area, grout take was very low. An estimated total of I cubic foot of grout was injected into the wall during this stage. Most of this volume was required to fill the core holes.
After curing of the Stage 1 grout for about 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> as specified in the approved procedure, Stage 2 grouting was performed through the form covering 4
the chipped area. Grout take was much better in this second stage owing to the greater width of the leak pathways in this area. An estimated total of 7 cubic feet of grout was injected in the wall during this stage, of which 4
approximately 2 cubic feet were required to fill the space behind the form.
g 5c f t It w s on at vel det rm e fro t ter testing that the volume of the leak pathways was 5-3/4 cubic feet (refer to section 4.4.3).
It is therefore concluded that the leak system has been
{
effectively filled with grout.
1 l
The exact volume'of grout injected could not be determined because of plugging of the flowmeter. At the very low flows passing through the meter l
the cement particles were adhering to and obstructing the vanes of the l.
turbine. The meter had to be disconnected from the line in order to con-tinue grouting. This plugging effect occurred during both Stages 1 and 2.
The grout volume estimates given in this report are based on consumption of dry grout and water at the mixer.

r DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 f-~s.
No grout entered either sheath during the grouting operations. No grout
(
)
appeared in the flushing water during the grouting and none appeared on the packers or rabbits after termination of grouting.
5.6 POST-GROUTING VERIFICATION TESTS Following completion of grouting, and after sufficient cure time, air tests were performed on the previously leaking section of sheaths H32-009 and H32-011. These tests were performed by isolating the leaking sections of both sheaths with the packer assemblies described in section 4.2 and else-where, and pressurizing each sheath between the packers by introducing air from the control manifold. Air was pumped into sheath H32-009 through the sheath drain line, and into H32-011 through the sheath vent line (see figure 5).
The results of these tests conclusively demonstrated that the grout had 4
successfully sealed the area around the sheaths to an acceptable degree to permit greasing of the tendons. The grout had also cut off the cross-communication between the two sheaths. Figure 13 shows a comparison of the air test results for the leaking portions of the cheaths prior to and fol-lowing groutiag. Also shown is a representative control air test performed on a good section of sheath. The small rate of air leakage in the reference test, and in the post grouting tests, can be completely attributed to normal leakage through fittings and seals in the test equipment.
5.7 CONCLUSION
S FROM GROUTING l
'The grouting work described in the preceding sections au;cessfully sealed
[' '
the leaking tendon sheaths H32-009 and H32-011 to an acceptable degree to permit tendon installation and gressing to proceed without uncontrolled escape of grease.
Cross-communication between the two sheaths was cut off.
No grout entered the sheaths during or after grouting. The sheaths were left in an unobstructed condition ready for tendon installation.

I i 1 DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 APPENDIX A i S.0 INITIAL COND!i!ONS Tendons H32-009 and H32-011 were tensioned and, in preparation for greasing, the sheaths were pressurized with air using approved procedures to verify the absence of leaks which would permit the escape of grease. Neither sheath would hold the air pressure. While pumping air into each of the sheaths, air was observed to return through the other sheath as well as to escape through a crack in the exterior face of the concrete wall. This crack is located near a main steam supply pipe penetration. The results were identical for both sheaths. The tension was released from the two tendons and they were removed from the sheaths. At the present time all other horizontal and verti-cal tendons have been installed, tensioned and greased. Additional. more detailed, air testing was performed to locate the leaking areas ~ inside both sheaths. This air testing which employed a packer assembly identical to those to be used in this procedure, succeeded in locating the leaks in the sheaths with good accuracy. The results of this testing were reported in Interoffice Memorandum Wolff/Schechter dated December 7.1982 (reference 3.5). In addition to air testing, inspection of the concrete in the vicinity of the crack was performed. This consisted of chipping out an area around the crack (Figure A-3) and drilling a sus 11 core hole near penetration #3. This inspection revealed that the concrete is in good condition in these areas. No voids or other deleterious conditions were found. Review of documentation covering construction procedures in this area has not indicated any problems with concrete placement or with materials which might affect the quality of the ;oncrete. ) 1 6-O A-9

DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 APPENDIX A O in the manometer tubes versus time. Both monitors will record initial readings prior to the start of Stage 3 testing. Both monitors will record readings at time zero, or the precise moment that the supply valve is opened. Thereafter, both monitors will record readings at 15-second intervals. At the discretion of the test director, the intervals between readings may be increased to 30 seconds or longer based on the progress of the test. Readings will be recorded during fill and drain cycles of the test. 1 Readings will be recorded on fories as shown in Exhibits C E, and F unless otherwise directed by the lead engineer. 9.6.2. Laak Observers Six two-man teams of observers will be required te man inspection stations surrounding the crack area. Each two-man team will consist of one observer and one recorder. The stations will be at wall penetrations 1 and will be distributed in such a way as to cover an l l area below, above, and on both sides of the crack (See l Figure A-3). This will ensure that all leaking water will be detected. It will be extremely important for all observers to record the precise time of 3 observation so that .this may be compared with the time history of flow. For this reasen all observers must have accurate synchronized timepieces. The area where the observations are to be made shall be cogletely lighted with v A-16
DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 i APPENDIX A l PO temporary floodlights. In addition, where required, observers will have flashlights. Upon the appearance of leaking water at any point on the wall, detailed estimates of flow rate, quantity, and exact location must be made. Observers should be familiar with what various flows look like. This will be accomplished in an orientation session to precede the test. Communications via hard wire telephone must be established between the saeter point outside the MSSS, the crack area, Buttress #2 and Buttress #3. A second extension phone will be required t,etween a central control point at the crack area and one or more of the observers who will be O separated from this central point by the thick center wall of the MSSS building. All observations will be recorded on a form as shown in Exhibit D unless directed otherwise by the lead engineer. 10.0 DOC! MENTATION OF RESULTS 4 All time-dependent meter readings, pressure readings, and observations of locations and quantities of leakage will be recorded on the foms shown in Exhibits C. D, E, and F. Total volume readings will be recorded as field notes. All field records will % signed and dated by the observer and will be kept in a file which will constitute the original field data set. The strip chart recording of flow time history will be dated and signed off by the lead engineer. A test log will be prepared by a designee of the test director. The log will describe the sequence of events during the tests and will include dates, times, etc. 14-O U A-17
~ =. DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 APPENDIX A I A report will be prepared by Engineering describing the test methods, results obtained, and conclusions reached. 11.0 INTERPRETATION OF DATA The volume of the crack system in the wall.will be datemined by measuring the total volume during the test, and subtracting the total volume of the sheathing between the packers, the plianbing to the test intervals downstream of the meter, water spilled from leaks in the well, and water returning through sheathing to either Buttress #2 and #3. The results of the fill cycle and the drain cycle for the Stage 3 test will be compared with each other for verification. If the drain cycle test volume is less then the fill cycle test volume then this will indicate the relative quantity of the crack system which is undrained. Comparison of the results with subsequent hydraulic tests number 9.4 and 9.5 will be made to back up the findings in test number 9.3. The time history of flow as well as the sequence of water appearance a't leaks will be studied for inferences regarding the e nature of the leak system. This infomation will help to reveal the spatia 1' distribution of the crack system and the degree of resistance to flow through the cracks. If voids in the concrete are present they will be detected. The time-history of water rise in the manometer tubes will indicate the elevations of voids if they exist. i A-18
i DEFICIENCY EVALUATION REPORT 82-72 APPENDIX A O 4 The results of the Stage 2 air test will be used in conjunction with the results of hydraulic testing to detemine whether any cracks exist from which the water was not able to exit. For example, the water may spill from cracks at lower elevations and may not rise to the point of filling all cracks. This would be factored into any volume estimates. j 12.0 RESTORATION 12.1 All test equipment shall be demobilized from the area. i 1 l 12.2 All water shall be removed from the tendong sheaths by blowing with air, swabbing, or any other Engineering approved nondestructive means necessary. i i 12.3 All construction interferences removed or repositioned for the test shall be dispositioned as directed by the lead engineer or test director. 12.4 All temporary weatherproofing in the Containment - MSSS gap shall be dispositioned as directed by the lead engineer or test director. 12.5 All spilled water shall be cleaned up.

This aspect will be discussed in detail in the engineering evaluation report for DER 82-72. 2.0 PRESSURE CRITERIA 2.1 The maximu:n hydraulic pressure (water or grout) to be applied to the tendon sheathing (either externally or internally) shall be 25 psi. Pressure shall be measured at the grout injection point with provision made for differences in elevation between sheaths and injection points.

Dear Mr. Bingham:
Per your request in letter dated June 6, 1983, I have O, closely reviewed the subject report and find that it accurately reflects all phases of the work with which I was directly involved as well as the portions of the testing work done when I was not present but which I talked about with those involved either by telephone or at the site at considerable length. I am also in complete agreement with the conclusions which are based not only on the grout "take" but also on pressure testing of the sheaths after the grout had hardened and on the end result, filling of the sheaths with grease of which none escaped. Yours very truly, JoNi C. Kin gistered Professional Engineer tate of Ohio # E-017426 State of Colorado # 773 O 9 O

Subject:
Arizona Nuclear Power Project Bechtel Job 10407 Engineering Evaluation Report Investigations and Grouting of Leaks Associated with Tendons H32-009 and H32-011 Pile: CM-158
Dear Mr. Bingham:
O I have examined laboratory reports Nos 040583-1,-2 and -3 dated 7-5-83, 7-7-83 and 7-7-83, respectively and find the i reported cube strengths more than adequate for the use to which the tested grout was put. Although these strengths are lower than the strength of the cracked concrete into which the grout was. injected, it should be borne in mind that the compressive strength exhibited by a grout that has been formed in a cube mold bears little relationship to that which will be exhibited by a relatively thin layer of grout in a crack between two masses of concrete. The reason for this is that the length / width ratio of a cube is 1.0, i.e., there is no lateral restraint acting on the width of the specimen. The thin sheet of grout, however, has a length / width ratio approaching zero (the length is very short; the width comparatively great). This means that all of the grout in the sheet is infinitely restrained by other l grout and by the body of the concrete. Thus the solid grout cannot be crushed because there is no place for the particles to move to. O l
r T M.G.Binghan Page 2 ~ June 13, 1983 Because the primary purpose of the grout was to attain maximum penetration into the finer voids, I had earlier recommended that the grout pumped be much more fluid than that at which the grout was initially qualified. The end result was that the cracks in the concrete were sealed not only to the outside face of the wall but between the sheaths as well with a grout that has hardened in position to provide strength in excess of that needed for stability of the concrete structure. Very truly yours, /) /. , John C. Kin J egistered Professional Engineer State of Ohio # E-017426 State of Colorado # 773 cc: Joe A.
