Mr. J.G.

RE:

WM. H. ZIMMER NUCLEAR POWER STATION - UNIT 1 EXPANSION OF THE QUALITY CONFIRMATION PROGRAM W.O.

57300, JOB E-5590, FILE NO. 956C, The attached Quality Confirmation Program Task descriptions address three of the four items identified in n1 letter of May 13, 1983 (LOZ-83-0030), wherein we indicated that masonry wall construction, seismic columns, bolting, and coatings would be included in the Quality Confirmation Program.

The fourth issue concerning Service Level 1 Coatings in containment has been identified pursuant to 10CFR50.55 (e) as Item S-5 on September 14, 1982.

Future activities related to coatings will be addressed by i

i separcte correspondence requesting authorization to proceed with I

work in this area prior to release of the NRC November 12, 1982

" Order Show Cause and Order Immediately Suspending Construction" (CLI-82-33).

l The QCP is also being expanded to include seismic clearance walkdowns. The details of this additional QCP exp&nsion are under study and we will advise you of our approach to this activity in the near future.

r QCP TASK XII BOLTING i

I.

PR,0BLEM A.

Inadequate installation of high strength bolting has been identified, C

(i.e., insufficient torquing, impruper material, improper orientation, enlarged bolt holes and missing bolts).

I B.

Inadequate " equipment mounting" bolting has been identified (i.e.,

i improperly installed concrete expansion anchors, loose bolts, insuff-

[

icient torquing, cut off anchor bolts and missing bolts.)

{

C.

Initial review of " bolting inspection documentation" indicates insuff-icient inspection criteria and documented inspection information.

h

11. ACTION p

}

1.) Review FSAR and Specifications for Program requirements.

2.) Review Contractors Installation / Inspection Procedures to verify that r

all requirements of " Action 1 "above have been addressed.

3.) Review Contractor Installation and Inspection Records to verify pro-gram requirements have been satisfied.

N 4.) Whefe Reco'rd Review identifies deficiencies, in non-compliance with i

1 & 2 above perform a field verification based on a minimum of 2 bolts per connection.

1 5.) If field verification establishes installed deficiencies, correct the deficiencies as follows:

A.) When engineering evaluation is not required document the g

deficiency and correct in-process.

m r,

B.) When engineering evaluation is required process a noncon-formance report.

PROBLEM

-m A.

Unfilled collar joints.

B.

Discontinuous or missing joint reinforcement.

I 1

C.

Inappropriate ventilation fire seal details.

2 C

II. ACTION 1.A) For safety-related double wythe walls, demonstrate that all post-E ulated wall loadings can be resisted assuming two independent walls rather than one monolithic wall.

M B.

Identify any other safety-related masonry walls where collar 3

joints were relied on for load resistance and demonstrate

'S their adequacy by either verification of collar joint fill or 7

by engineering analysis described in (A).

g C.

Appropriate modifications will be implemented for those walls 3

found to be inadequate with respect to the engineering calcu-lations in (A) and (B).

75 D.

Walls which have running bond through their thickness need not be considered in the above evaluations.

2.A.) Identify by Engineering Analysis the masonry walls for which 4"M 80% or more of the joint reinforcement was relied on to resist

  1. 8 load.

For these walls in situ testing will be performed to establish that the required reinforcement exists.

G B.) Shou d additional inspections prove that the 80% minimum in

'M 1

place joint reinforcement assumption was inappropriate, justify

~5 revised criteria.

Ja i

C.) Confirm that the discontinuity of joint reinforcement across 3

columns does not adversely affect current or previous wall

=

evaluations.

3. A.) For all walls in which fire and/or ventilation seal are re-quired, the type of in situ seal will be established and its

'3 adequacy to perform its intended function verified.

}f QCP TASK XIV SEISMIC COLUMNS i

I.) P_ROBLEM 3

A. Inadequate embedded seismic column connections.

[

11.) A,CTION 1

1.) For the embedded seismic columns in all safety-related masonry walls, structural evaluationsof the column end connections will be 5

made for all postulated load combinations assuming the following I

conditions are concurrent, or in the nest adverse combination, at both end connections:

A. Bolts located in their slots at their most adverse positions.

t B. Up to 200 ft.-lb. of torque in each bolt, considering an appropriate apparent coefficient of friction (above that

,a normally considered for steel / steel contact) for connection slip to account for missing washers, oversize slots, and flame cut slots ar.d holes.

C. A 251, reduction in weld size.

2.) for these connection evaluations, it will be demonstrated under all postulated loading conditions that:

g A. Allowable stresses were not exceeded in all connection items.

B. A factor of safety of 2 exists on weld stresses compared with the governing code-allowable limits, considering the minor k

deficiencies noted in the exposed welds, in addition to the p

undersize.

3.) In addition, adequacy of the slots will be demonstrated assuming g

they are rectangular.

E 4.) In those instances where the above criteria are not satisfied, r

additional evaluations, inspections, and/or modifications will be

~

y required to demonstrate column connection adequacy.

F 5.) If additional inspections yield information that would affect the I

criteria given in (1) and (3) above, appropriate revisions to the criteria will be incorporated, as justified.
