TER-C5506-423 Summary Information concerning the Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 supplied to the Nac by nochester Gas and Electric Corporation (RG&E) dealing with Topic III-7.B of NBC's Systematic Evaluation Program was reviewed. Topic III-7.B assesses the impact of perceived margins of safety of Seisaf a Category I structures that may result from changes in design codes ar.d from differencec between loads and loading combinations used for design rad those currently specified. The review was conducted by the Franklin Research Center with the objec-tive of assisting the NBC in the evaluation of RG&E's compliance status with respect to implementation of the Systematic Evaluation Program by appraising the technical content of the information submitted. The review found that RG&E has made a substantial enginsering effort toward resolution of Topic III-7.B concerns. Although open items were found to remain, these primarily relate to assessment of effects of design code changes when appraised for loadings associated with extreme environmental and faulted service conditions. IGEE plans to address these concerns in due l course as part of the Structural Reanalysis Program.

   'I          requirements that were not in effect when older plants were designed and licensed. Consequently, one aspect (designa.ed Topic III-7.8) of the implementation of NBC's Systematic Evaluation Program requires licensees to review changes that have occurred in structural design criteria since their plant was built and also to review the loads and load combinations used for design of plant structures by comparing them with the loads and load combinations now specified for ::urrent construction. The licensee's objective is to assess the impact that these changes may have on margins of safety of Seismic Category I structures as they were originally perceived and as they would be perceived under current criteria. Upon completion of this work, licensees report their findings to the NRC.

To assist in this review, the NRC provided licensees with plant-specific Technical Evaluation Reports (TERs) concerning these issues (e.g., Reference

1) . The TERs listed design code changes and, on a building-by-building basis, the load and loading combination changes to be addressed in the licensee review. The items listed were ones judged to have the greatest potential to degrade the originally perceived margins of safety.

In May IS83, under contract NBC-03-81-130, the NBC retained the Franklin Research Center (FRC) to assist in its review of licensee findings. This report describes the review for the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 and summarizes Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation's (BGEE) compliance status with respect to the implementation of SEP Topic III-7.B. nklin Research Center A h af The Fm m

2. DESIGN CODE CHANGES DESIGNhTED SCALE A l, Current structural design codes contain provisions that differ from, or l< did not appear in, the codes to which older plants were designed and con-structed. Changes that were judged to have the potential to significantly affect perceived margins of safety have been designated as Scale A. These
       !     changes are discussed item-by-item in this section of the report.

2.1 SEEAR CONNECTORS FOR COMPOSITE BEAMS Four major modifications to the 1963 AISC Code [2] related to the type, distribution, and spacing of shear connectors for composite Maas occur in the l' 1980 Code [3] . These modifications ares

a. Permission to use lightweight structural concrete (concrete made with C330 aggregates) in composite designs
b. Allowance of design for composite action in the negative acaent l

region of continuous beams and provision of design guidance for including the longitudinal reinforcing steel in the negative moment resisting section

c. Design requirements for the minimum number of shear connectors in regions of concentrated load
d. Maximum and minimum spacing requirements in tsras of stud diameters.

The first two modifications will not affect old designs because they were not allowed by the previous code. The new provisions concerning the number of t studs in the region near concentrated loads and the new limits concerning spacing of studs may adversely affect the margin of safety in older designs when checked against the new code provisions. These new requirements are of special concern in the case of composite beams subject to large concentrated loads, such as those associated with extreme environmental or critical accident conditions. 2.2 col @OSITE BEAMS OR GIRDERS WITH FORIED STEEL DECK 1 The 1980 AISC Code (3] contains a new section covering stay-in-place I formed steel deck when used in a composite design.

) i, i I formed steel decking, depending on the rib geometry and the direction of the riba relative to the beam, may affect the load capacity of the shear studs and the effective flange width of the assumed concrete compression flange. They provide for reduction factors, to be applied to t.he shear stud allowable capacity, which account for the structural irregularity introduced into the { composite slab. l Composits beams with formed steel decks that were designed to the f l previous code could have less conservative margins of safety wnen compared to present requirements, especially in c.tses where extreme loadings are to be considered. 2.3 FLANGE STRESS IN HYBRID GIRDERS The AISC Code section covering reduction of bending stress in the comp"ession flange was modified in the 1980 Code. The original flange stress reduction formula in the old code was needed ' to account for stress transfer which may occur in ordinary beam webs if the compression region should deflect laterally, thereby changing the bending capacity of the cross section. In hybrid girders, the amount of the loss of bending resistance resulting from this phenomenon will vary depending on the relative properties of the web and flange steel. A reduccd bending stress formula reflecting this interaction was introduced. In order to keep the formulation relatively simple, the reduc.d bending stress was made applicable to both flanges of the hybrid member. Beans or girders fabricated from plate where the flange and web steels are different could have lower margins of safety under the new code than were thought to exist under older code requirements where the ratio of web yield stress to flange yield stress is less than 0.45 and the ratio of the web area to flange area is low.

                                                                                                                         ~

      ;                               Previous code provisions allowed the designer to neglect a portion of the area of such elements. The new code requirements provide equations for var-ious elements based on the critical buckling stress for plates. The new analytical approach is more conservative for the steams of toes and less conservative for all other cases.

l Wiere structural toes are used as main members and the tee stem is in I compression, the margin of safety for older designs checked under the new code could be significantly less than was thought under prior code requirements. Since bucking is a non-ductile type failure, these new requiraments are of special concern in the case of tee shapes subjected to the extreme environ-mental or critical accident conditions. 2.5 MhXIIEJM IDAD IN RIVETED OR BOLTED TENSILE MEMBER 3 .

                   ~

The 1980 AISC Code [3] introduces codes changes which affect the maximum l load permitted in tensile members. . Two interacting code changes are involved in establishing this limit, and the mutual effects of both must be considered in assessing the impact of the new code upon the perception of margins of saf'ety in tension members. The two provisions involved concern:

1. the tensile area permitted to be used in establishing load carrying capacities
2. the allowable stresses to be used in conjunction with these areas.
         -                            Both effects are taken into account in ranking this change. The potential magnitude of the mutual effects of the two changes is discussed below.

The 1980 AISC Specification definition of " Effective Net Area" introduces a reduction coefficient which is to be applied to the traditional definition of net area. This essentially changes the design capacity of a tension member r when compared to older versions of these specifications. First consider only the effect of the critical area used for the design of a tension member as defined in the new code compared to the critical area used for the design of

                                                                                                             ~~

the same member as defined in the old code. Clearly, if all other factors are ranklin Research Center A(kneen of The husen bustas

1 i TE1K 5506-423 equal, the new code is acra conservative. !However, all other factors are not I the same. The changes in allowable tensile stress definition (on the gross area and on the effective net area). which 'were introduced simultaneously with the new definition of effective net area modify the above conclusion. Ia addition, the traditional upper limit on the critical not area of 854 of the gross area (a requirement of the cid code) is no longer a requirement of the new code. Both of these changes interact with the new effective not area requirement.

                                                                             ~

A valid assessment of the effect of these changes is bent accomplished by a comparison of the allowable load each code permits in tension members. If one conside:s the allowable load on the effective not area, the value based on 4 the new code is a function of three variables: the new reduction coefficient, the net area,* and the ultimate tensile strength "of the steel. The allowable load based on the old code is a function of only two variables: the net area and the yield strength of the steel. .First, form the load ratio of the allowable load defined by the new; code criteria to the allowable load defined by the old code criteria. Next, consider the ranges of all of the parameters mentioned above, this ratio will have defined upper and lower limits which are a function of the ratio of the. not areas, the new code not area reduction I factor, and the ratio of the steel ultimate strength to the yield strength. For all the steels allowed under the new code, this load ratio ranges from 1.5 to 0.69. For all the steels allowed under the old code, this load ratio ranges from 1.6 to 0.88. It is apparent that, for those steels with load ratios less than 1.0, the new code is less conservative than the old. The margin of, safety of some older designs therefore could be significantly lower when checked against the new code requirements. l l 2.6 SEEAR Iis.D IN COPED BEAMS The 1980 AISC Code (3] introduces additional control over the shear load permitted at beam end connections where the top flange has been coped.

             *In making this comparison, one must be careful to note that the not' area is not always the same under the old and new codes.

TER-C5506-423 Web shear control in older codes did not distinguish between coped and -; uncoped beams or between shear allowed at connections and over the free span (escept for requiring reinforcement of thin webs at connections) . The shear load allowed was given by: I allowable shear load = 0.4 (yield strength) (gross web section) . The 1980 Code retains this limit, but introduces an additional requirement to protect against a failure mode associated with coped beams. For coped beams (and similar situations), a portion of the web may sever, failing along the perimeter of the connection holes. In particular, coped

  ,       beam web connections where the fastener holes lie close to the butt end of the beam may be prone to sudt failures.

This web " tear out" failure is actually a combination of shear failure through the line of fasteners together with tensile failure across the shortest path to the beam end. The failure surface turns a corner with shear failure along a line trending upward through the holes, combined with tensile failure across a more-or-less horizontal line running out to the beam end. The newly introduced shear limit is given as a function of the minimum net failure surface and the steel ultimate strength. Thus, the new requirements may or may not control a coped beam's allowable capacity in shear. Whether or not it does depends on both the connection geometry and the type of steel used. talen this requirement is controlling, coped beams designed by previous

    '       rules may be found, if checked against the new criteria, to have significantly smaller margins of safety than previously thought.

2.7 COLUsel WEB STIFFENERS AT FRAME JOINTS The more recent editions of the AISC code mandate which columns must be stiffened at locations where beams of girders are rigidly attached to the column flange and also establish requirements for the geometry of such web , stiffeners. These requirements are introduced to preclude local crippling at such frame joints, p. nklin Research Center A Dhaman of The FrueAn hughne

~.: 2.8 LATERAL SUPPORf SPACING IN FRAMES (PLASTIC DESIGN ISTROD) The 1980 AISC Code contains changed spacing requirements for lateral supports in portions of members in frames where failure mechanisms are expected to form at ultimate load. Members of such frames must not only be capable of developing a plastic hinge, but must also be stable enough to sustain moments larger than those computed on an elastic-perfect-plastic theory (because real steels work-harden at strains expected to occur at hinge locations) . Previous lateral bracing requirements were developed for a limited range of steels. Research on high-strength steels has shown that, for certain ranges of slenderness ratio of the compression flange of such frame members, older specification bracing requirements were not sufficiently conservative. The new specification requirements make the slenderness ratio limits a function of the steel yield strength and the member curvature (as expressed by the ratio of the lesser bending moment at the ends of the unbraced segment to the plastic moment). The new spscifications are more conservative for (1) any segment bent in double curvature regardless of its steel specification and (2) very high-strength steel members. The adequacy of frame members bent in single curvature and* constructed of steels whose yield strength exceeds 36 kai should be examined on a case-by-case basis. The new requirements may reduce the margins of safety thought to exist in:

1. structures designed under the plastic requirements of older codes
2. elastica 11y designed structures sized to carry a smaller maximum load than is now required by current accident and faulted load combinations. In this case, plastic logic may have to be. invoked to justify the adequacy of exisiting structures. !3onconformKnce with 000 Franidn Research Center A Dhaman af b hengen hughes w.w--- +m- -----, y--. .,. , - . -,,---yw,- -,, ---.- ,

The requirements apply to brackets and corbels having a shear span-to-depth ratio of unity or less. They provide minimum and maximum limits on tension and shear reinforcement, limits on ultimate shear stress in concrete, and constraints on member geometry and location of reinforcement. Brackets and corbels designed under earlier codes may or may not satisfy the newly imposed limits. If they do not, they may be prone to non-ductile failure (which occurs suddenly and without warning) and may exhibit smaller margins of safety than those currently required. 2.10 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR WhLLS 2.10.1 Shear Walls ACI 349-76, Section.s 11.15.1 through 11.15.6 specify requirements for reinforcing and permissible sheer stresses for in-plane shear loads on walls. The ACI 318-63 Code had no specific requirements for in-plane shear on shear walls. 2.10.2 Punching Shear ACI 349-76, Section 11.15.7 specifies permissible punching shear stresses for walls. ACI 318-63 had no specific provisions for walls for these stresses. Punching loads are caused by relatively concentrated lateral loads on the walls. These loads may be from pipe supports, equipment supports, duct supports, conduit supports, or any cther component producing a lateral load on

The new provisions also require that thermal stresses be evaluated considering the stiffness and rigidity of members and the degree of reistraint of the structure.

2.13 COLUMNS NITH SPLICED REINFOICING L The ACI 349-76, Section 7.10.3 requirements for columns with spliced reinforcing did not exist in the ACI 318-63 Code. The ACI 349-76 Code requires that splices in each face of a column, where the design load s*.ress in the longitudinal bars varies from fy in compression to 1/2 fy in tension, be developed to provide at least twice the calculated tension in that face of l the column (splicas in combination with unspliced bars can provide this if

applicable). This code change requires that a minimum of 1/4 of the yield capacity of the bars in each face of the column be developed by both spliced and unspliced. bars in that face of the column.

Working stress design methods were widely I used. Consequently, it is likely that original embedmont designs do not fully conform to current criteria. Review of such designs to determine the implications with respect to margins of safety is therefore judged a desirable precaution. 2.15 DUCTILE RESPONSE TO IMPULSE LOADS Appendix C to ACI 349-76 [4] contains design rules for structures which may be subjected tc. impulse or impact loads; no such provisions occur in ACI 318-63 [5].

Sufficient diagonal reinforcement (or its demonstrated equivalent) is to be supplied to carry, without excessive strain, shear in excess of that permitted in the concrete. A asjor consideration here is the preservation of the structural integrity of the liner. r1 In containments constructed to older codes, such matters were lef t to the discretion of the designer, who any or any not have provided the horizontal shear capacity at controlled strains that the code currently requires. 2.17 AREAS OF CONTAI1 GENT SHELL SUBJECT TO PERIPHERAL SEEAR Concrete containment design is currently governed by the ASME Boiler and Pressure vessel Code.

These provisions are similar to the ACI 318-63 Code [5] provisions for slabs and , footings, except that the allowable punching shear stress in CC-3421.6 includes the effect of shell membrane stresses. For membrane tension, the allowable concrete punching shear stress in the ASME Code is less than that allowed by ACI 318-63. 2.18 AREAS OF CONTAI1GEENT SHELL SUBJECT TO TORSION Concrete containment design is currently governed by the ASME Boiler and !

The new provisions also require that thermal stresses be eval-usted considering the stiffness and rigidity of members and the degree of restraint of the structure. An assessment is to be made of the analytical methods used to determine thermal stresses as compared to current code-acceptable practices, e.g., those discussed in ACI 349.1R-80 and the commentary to ACI 349R-80. If the methods used for design produce st.ress results which are signifi-cantly different from those current procedures generate, perceived margins of safety could be affected. 2.20 AREAS OF COtrfAIletENT SHELL SUBJECT TO BIAXIAL TENSION Increased tensile development lengths are required by Section CC-3532.1.2 i of Reference 6 for reinforcing steel bars terminated in areas of reinforced concrete containment structures which may experience biaxial tension.

l l TER-C5506-423 NOTES:

      '                                  In the following notes, the Licensee's conclusion is presented first, followed by the reviewer's comments, if any, in brackets.

C-1. The review showed that the steel beam section was adequate to carry the applied loads and that composite action was not relied upon. C-2. The analysis showed that composite design was not required for these beams and the Licensee surmised that the existing shear connectors were provided to preclude lateral torsional buckling in the top flange. C-3. sae review showed n'o use of hybrid girders in plant structures. I C-4. The review showed that, under neraal load combinations, none of the tee section failed the code check for members in compression. C-5. The results of the generic review showed that, for the structural materials used in the Ginna plant, the AISC 1963 Code provides a more conservative design. [For this design code change, the conservatism or nonconservatism of the 1963 AISC code is material dependent. For the Ginna plant, where all structural members are of A-36 steel, the conclusion that the 1963 AISC Code 'is mort conservative is correct. However, this is not necessarily true of plants which also use other construction materials, particularly the higher strength steels.] C-6. In all cases, it was found that the beam capacity was controlled by one of the three other loading limits cited and not by the block shear capacity. [ Positive evidence that coping will not reduce safety margins is provided for those beams which pass comparison tests 2 and 3. For such beams, the critical section controlling beam capacity is not through the coping but elsewhere. Determination of coping acceptability by test 1 shows that safety margins (although smaller than formerly perceived to be) are still code acceptable for the loads that the Licensee considered, i.e. , normal operating conditions. In any case, since to date only normal operating loads have been considered in the Licensee's review of this item, any structural - concern about the acceptability of coped members at the Ginna plant is relegated to the review of member acceptability under the portion of the III-7.B topic devoted to loads and load combinatioWs.] 29-ranklin Research Center A Osnmen of The Fransen humane

TER-C5506-423 C-7. It was determined that no column web stiffeners are required to safely carry the original applied loads. No evidence was found of plastic design methods being used. C-8. C-9. Evaluation of the twelve corbels showed:

a. Six of seven corbels supporting primary structural elements met code requirments. One did not conform with the minimum reinforcing requirements but its stresses were too small to be of concern.
b. The five corbels which support secondary elements did not 1

comply with the code requirements for reinforcing. However, all five have insignificant stresses. C-10. The evaluation showed:

a. The shear walls in the auxiliary building, intermediate building, control building, containment interior structures, and screenhouse met the code requirements.
b. The shear walls in the diesel generator building did not meet current code criteria because of the new code provision for in-plane shear.

C-11. The evaluation found that, in all cases, the walls met the code required factor of safety for punching shear. C-12. The results showed:

a. Six groups representing 26 conditions had safety factort. that were equal to or greater than the code-required factor of safety, considering only code-satisfying reinforcing.
b. Five groups representing 108 conditions met the code-required l

factor of safety, considering code-satisfying reinforcing plus taking credit for any additional well-anchored reinforcing l

                         .. installed.
c. Two groups representing three conditions met the code-required factor of safety for shear stresses in enreinforced concrete.
d. One group representing six conditions (beam pockets for beam supporting the intermediate building floor) had an actual factor of safety less than the code requires, but greater than f unity against ultimate failure.

TER-C5506-423 i e [ Computations for the beam pockets for beams supporting the floor at elevation 271 ft in the intermediate building were examined during of the review. This was one of several sample l calculations arbitrarily chosen by the reviewers and provided by the Licensee to serve as examples typical of computations made by the Licensee in support of its conclusions. It was e noted that the loading combination used in this computation was the most severe of the operating loads (which included the operational basis earthquake) . However, a more severe loading would appear to occur under accident conditions (for example, a load combination including the safe shutdown earthquake) . If the same procedure used for the check computations made by tae Licensee were applied to the latter loading, it appears that the beam pockets would exhibit a factor of safety less than 1. However, the C. heck computation is conservative. It ralies on the shear capacity of the concrete alone and takes no credit for additional shear resistance provided by existing bearing plate anchors and other reinforcement that may also be present.]

e. One group representing two conditions met the code required of factor of safety assuming an in-situ concrete strength (f'c) 3300 pai, as opposed to the 28-day strength of 3000 pai. This in-situ strength is judged to be reasonable.

[The reviewers concur that it is reasonable to expect a long-term strength increase of at least this much.] l

f. The results for the screenhouse show the safety factors are greater than those required by the code, C-13. The factor of safety found for the cable tunnel was greater than t

I the code requires. Based on this " worst case, the remaining five elements were judged to meet the current code requirements. l l C-14. The evaluation found all concrete columns examined met the code required factor of safety. C-15. Results of the evaluations

a. Of the 46 column anchorages evaluated, 22 did not meet the ACI 349-80 Code,
b. Of the 22 that did not meet the code, 5 anchorages were unacceptable for the applied loads. ,
Using statistical projection, at a 95% confidence level,,po more I

than 27% of the population of 194 column anchorages would have unacceptable margins of safety for normal load combinations. ( 1 As rankun Research Center A Osnman of The Fw buemme

TER-C5506-423 C-16. The results of the evaluations

a. For penetration groups with 6-in,12-1/2-in, and 14-1/4-in diameter sleeves, the code-specified punching shear capacity of the concrete exceeded the ultimate axial load of the pipe penetration. I
b. For penetration groups with 24-in and 54-in diameter sleeves, the shell capacity was judged to be adequate, since no significant punching shear loads were identified.
c. At equipment and personnel locks, significant punching shear loads occur under containment internal pressure only. Under the abnormal loading condition (1.5 Pa) , adequacy against punching failure local to the penetration was demonstrated by calculations.
d. For the groups with 10-in and 24-1/4-in diameter sleeves, the shell capacity was shown adequate.
e. For the 29-in and 45-1/4-in diameter sleeve groups (feedwater j

and mainstream penetrations), the shell was found not to meet the current code-required factor of safety using pipe rupture loads from the original plant design calculations. However, the actual factor of safety is greater than 1.0. C-17. A torsional shear stress check was not required. C-18.

Although the concrete shell and liner form an intergral structure and are currently designed to the same code provisions, the liner was given individual attention in the Topic III-7.5 study because of the special considerations associated with it. Primary among these considerations is maintenance of I liner integrity. Loading cases 7, 8, and 14 are retained as' scale A , pending:

1. Resolution under Topic III-6 of effects associated with pipe reactions occurring under accident or faulted service conditions.
2. Resolution of concerns for done liner integrity raised in NUREG/CR-2580.

TER-C5506-423 + 0 1 l 5.3 SPENT FUEL POOL (CONCRETE) l The reviewers concur with the RG&E conclusion that the following set of loads is, as reduced by building-specific considerations, a proper load combination under current criteria.

1. 1.4D + 1.7L
2. 1.4D + 1.7L + 1.9E0
3. 1.4D + 1.7L + 1.7W
4. 0.75 (1.4D + 1.7L)

11. D+L
12. D + L + 1.25Eo
13. D + L + Ess TER-C5257-322 had cited load combinatic ns 10 and 13 as Scale A,.

RG&E has demonstrated in Secticn 3, Attachment 2 of Reference 3 that . load combinations 10 and 13 may be removed from the list. This was based on the Licensee's response concerning loading case 10 which states:

                               "It was shown in the SER's for SEP Topics III-2 and III-4.A, that the Spent Fuel Pool would not be affected by wind and tornado"(including missile) loadings."

Concerning loading case 13, the Licensee stated:

                                "The spent fuel pool was shown to be adequate to withstand SSE loads, per N'":EG/CR-1821. Temperature variations as the result of failures in the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling system were considered, and found acceptable, in the NBC's SER for SEP Topic IX-1, ' Fuel Storaga', dated January 27, 1982."

The original analysis of the spent fuel pool treated earthquake loadings using static equivalent forces; current practice requires dynamic analysis. However, because the pool is a massive structure and because of its location, it is expected to respond to secthquake loads without appreciable amplification or structural deformations. Consequently, it seems reasonable to expect that static and dynamic treatment should not produce widely divergent r sults. ranklin Research Center A Chuman of The Fransen huanne

TER-C5506-423 On this basis, for Topic II-7.B objectives, the review finds that pool adequacy has been demonetrated. 5.4 AURILIARY BUILDING (CONCRETE) l The reviewers concur with the RG&E conclusica that the following set of loads is, as reduced by building-specific consideratior.s, a proper loading combination under current criteria.

1. 1.4D + 1.7L
2. 1.4D + 1.7L + 1.9Eo

11. D+L+Ra
12. D + L + Ra + 1.25Eo
13. D + L + Ra + Esa TER-C5257-322 had cited load combinations 10 and 13 as Scale A,.

The A, classification for both of these loading combinations is retained pending:

1. resolution of issues,related to masonry walls, and
2. establishment of embedmont strength needed to ensure that all columns can wi:.nstand loadings found during SEP seismic review and alco from tornado loadings at wind magnitudes satisfying SEP objectives.

BG&E syates that loading combination 13 reduces to loading combination 9, a case treated in the original analysis of the auxiliary building. Except for regions local to pipe penetrations or pipe s;:pports (or the like) , this equivalency does exist. However, it should be made clear that absence of a Scale A citation of a previously analyzed load combination does not necessarily reflect tacit agreement that existing analytical results are in full accord . with current criteria. It merely indicates that some other loading combination was deemed likely to be more significant. p. - - A ranklin Research Center AOhemenofTheF 6 hughee

1. the wind load magnitude in compliance with SEP objectives, and
2. the structural integrity of the intermediate building's masonry block walls.

' " Current requirements that the effects of an instantaneous guillotine pipe break be considered in these load combinations have been waived. The Licensee stated:

      "As noted in SEP Topic III-5.B, an inservice inspection program has been instituted by RG&E, and accepted by the N;C, which would prevent full diameter breaks in the steam and feedwater piping systems. Thus, only                              _

crack breaks in the main piping, or full-diameter breaks in the small branch lines, need to be postulated. The :nodifications implemented by RG&E as a result of the review of postulated piping failures ;in the intergediate building (e.g., jet shields and missile barriers) consider the effects of the resultant piping dymanic loads." nklin Research Center A Denman of The Fraseen Weemme

TER-C5506-423 5.8 INTERBEDIATE BUILDING (STEEL) Based on the information provided by RGEE (Section 8, Attachment 2, Reference 3) the following set of loads appears to be a proper loading combination under current criteria.

A Scale A, rating is retained on load combination 8 pending determina-tion of the wind speed magnitude deemed necessary to comply with SEP objec-tives. l A Scale A, rating is also retained on load combination 13 based on the ! following consideration. NUREG/CR-1821 found the intermediate building column system, as presently constructed, to be " marginally acceptable" under SSE. Modifica'tions to the intermediate building are currently ar.ticipated in order to provide structural integrity under tornado. Assurance should be provided that such modifications also enhance the structure's earthquake resistance or at least do not detract from it due to an altered dynamic response. 5.9 CABLE TUNNEL The reviewers concur with the RG&E conclusion that the following set of loads is, as reduced by building-specific considerations, a proper loading combination under current criteria. l

7. CONCLUSIONS AND REColcemDATIONS The raview disclosed that aochester Gas and Electric Corporation has uncertz, ken a substantial engineering effort responsive to the objectives of Topic III-7.B and that aGEE has supported its findings concerning Ginna Unit 1
  .           with a considerable body of analytical evidence developed during the course of its review of this topic.

A number of items were found to be unresolved and these are cited in

   ~

sections of this report dealing with the review findi.ngs. The remaining items primarily relate to the assessment of effects that currently defined loads and loading combinations for extreme environmental and faulted service conditions may have on perceived margins of safety in building structures that are determined to be essential to safe shutdown, especially when these are taken in conjunction with Scale A design code changes. RGEE plans to address these items in due course under their structural reanalysis program. All plant modifications that may be found necessary to comply with the objectives of the Systematic Evaluation Program are to be constructed to current design codes and to currently specified loads and loading combinations. Thus, for all modified plant structures, Topic III-7.B will be fully resolved. It is anticipated, however, that some structures determined to be l essential to safe shutdown will be found acceptable as built. It is likely I that determination of acceptability will be based primarily on a demonstration i - t that the genegal sizing of major structural elements in these buildings is i j adequate to sustain current loads and load combinations. A number of the i design code changes, however, relate to the adequacy of specific structural details. It is therefore recommended that a review of remaining Topic III-7.B items for essential structures which are retained as-built be incorporated as a specific aspect of RG&E's structural reanalysis program. , l ! _nidin Rese_ arch._ Center l - - - - - . _ . - ___ . _ _ _ _

Topic III-7.B assesses the ispect of perceived margins of safety of Seismic Category I structures that may result from changes in design codes and from differences between loads and loading combinations used for design and those currently specified.

The review was conducted by the Franklin Research Center with the objec-tive of assisting the NBC in the evaluation of BG&E's compliance status with respect to implementation of the Systematic Evaluation Program by appraising the technical content of the information submitted. The review found that M&E has made a substantial eng$neering effort toward resolution of Topic III-7.B concerns. Although open items were found to remain, these primarily relate to assessment of effects of design code changes when appraised for loadings associated with extreme environmental and faulted service conditions. RG&E plans to address these concerns in due course as part of the Structural Reanalysis Program. D'

1. INTRODUCTICN Current design criteria for nuclear power plant structures contain requiremen'ts that were not in effect when older plants were designed and licensed. Consequently, one aspect (designated Topic III-7.8) of the implementation of Nac's Systemtic Evaluation Program requires licpasees to review changes that bave occurred in structural design criteria since their plant was built and also to review the loads and load combinations used for design of plant structures by comparing them with the loads and load combinations now specified for current construction. The licensee's objective is to assess the impact that these changes may have on margins of safety of
                                                              ~

Seismic Category I structures as they were originally perceived and as they would be perceived under current criteria. Upon completion of this work, licensees report their findings to the NBC. To assist in this review, the NBC provided licensees with plant-specific Technical Evaluation Reports (TERs) concerning these issues (e.g., Reference

1) . The Teas listed design code changes and, on a building-by-building basis, the load and loading combination changes to be addressed in the licensee review. The items listed were ones judged to have the greatest potential to degrade the originally perceived margins of safety.

In May 1983, under contract NBC-03-81-130, the NBC retained the Franklin Research Center (FRC) to assist in its review of licensee findings. This i report describes the review for the R. E.

2. DESIGN CODE e m c't DESIGNhTED SCALE A Current structural design codes contain provisions that differ from, or did not appear in, the codes to which older plants were designed and con-structed. Changes that were judged to have the potential to significantly j These affect perceived margins of safety have'been designated as Scale A.

changes ared ' iscussed item-by-item in this section of the report. 2.1 SEEAR COBRECTOFS FOR COMPOSITE BEAMd Four major modifications to the 1963 AISC code (21 related to the type, distribution, and spacing of shear connectors for composite beams occur in the 8 80 Code (31 These modifications ares

a. Permission to use lightweicht structural concrete (concrete made with C330 aggregates) in composate designs .
b. Allowance of design for composite action in the negative acaent region of continuous beams and provision of design guidance for including the longitudinal reinforcing steel in the negative moment resisting section
c. Design requirements for the minimum number of shear connectors in regions of concentrated load
d. Maximum and minimum spacing requirements in terms of stud diameters.

The first two modifications will not affect old designs because they were not allowed by the previous code. The new provisions concerning the number of studs in the region near concentrated loads and the new limits concerning .. spacing of studs may adversely affect the margin cf safety in older designs when checked against the new code provisions. These new requirements are of special concern in the case of composite beams subject to large concentrated loads, such as those associated with extreme environmental or critical accident conditions. 2.2 COWOSITE BEAMS OR GIRDERS WITH FORMED STEEL DECK The 1980 AISC Code (3) contains a new section covering stay-in-place These provis16ns for formed steel deck when used in a composite design. 2-ranklin Research Center A Dhaman af The Frasumme m ww-- - w w *w --,-,----w w m-,w---- - -ae .w y--.+p 'qe-w. m--,------------g- - , , - - - -

 -                                riba relative to the beam, may. affect the load capacity of the shear studs and the effective flange width of the assumed cohcrete compression flange. They
                                                                                                                                            ~

provide for reduction' factors, to be applied to the shear stud allowable capacity, which account for the structural irregularity introduced into the composite slab. Composite beams with formed steel decks that were designed to the previous code could have less conservative margins of safety when compared to present requirements, especially in cases where extreme loadings are to be considered. 2.3 FLANGE STRESS IN HYBRID GIRDERS The AISC Code section covering reduction of bending stress in the compression flange was modified in the 1980 Code. The original flange stress reduct. ion formula in the old code was needed to account for stress transfer which may occur in ordinary beam webs if the ccepression region should deflect laterally, thereby changing the bending capacity of the cross section. In hybrid girders, the, amount of the loss of bending resistance resulting from this phenomenon will vary depending on the 1 relative properties of the web and flange steel. A reduced bending stress i formula reflecting this interaction was introduced. In order to keep the i formulation relatively simple, the reduced bending stress was made applicable to both flanges of the hybrid member. Beams or girders fabricated from plate where the flange and web steels are different could have lower margins of safety under the new code than were _ thought to exist under older code requiraments where the ratio of web yield stress to flange yield stress is less than 0.45 and the ratio of the web area to flange area is low. 2.4 STRESSES IN UNSTIFFENED COMPRESSION ELEMENTS .

TER-C5506-423 Previous code provisions allowed the designer to neglect a portion of the i area of such elements. The new code requirements provide equations for var-ious elements based on the critical buckling stress for plates. The new analytical approach is more conservative for the steams of teos and less ( conservative for all other cases. Itsere structural teos are used as main mes6ers and the tee stem is in compression, the margin of safety for older designs checked under the new code could be significantly less than was thought urder prior code requirements. Since bucking is a nonductile type failure, these new requirements are of special conce. n in the case of tee shapes subjected to the extreme environ-mental or critical accident conditions. 2.5 MhXDCM ICAD IN RIVETED OR BOLTED TENSILE MEMBERS The 1980 AISC Code [3] introduces codes changes which affect the maximum load permitted in tensile members. Two interacting code changes are involved in establishing this limit, and the mutual effects of both must be considered in assessing the impact of the new code upon the perception of margins of safety in tension members. The two provisions involved concern:

1. the tensile area permitted to be used in establishing load carrying capacities l
2. the allowable stresses to be used in conjunction with these areas.

Both effects are taken into account in ranking this change. The potential ~ l magnitude of the mutual effects of the two changes is discussed below. The 1980 AISC Specification definition of " Effective Net Area" introduces a reduction coefficient which is to be applied to the traditional definition of net area. This essentially changes the design capacity of a tension member when compared to older versiens of these specifications. First consider only the effect of the critical area used for the design of a tension member as defined in the new code compared to the critical area used for the design of . ; the same member as defined in the old code. Clearly, if all other factors are y-ranklin Research Center A Dhusen af The Fw treghae m- --e - we -y-we e----- i.i.-.-,9- - . - , . - , . - - -- -,,,,,,.--,.----_.--y.,y- , - - -,_.,,--- . _ _ , . . - - . ~ - - ,-*-----,.-.g.,.- e__---,..._ y. +<.__m._--,.,- , - , -, -ymy- , ---- ,._,w,

l l TER-C5506-423 l equal, the new code is more conservative. However, all other factors are not the same. The changes in allowable tensile stress definition (on the gross i area and on the effective not area) which were introduced simultaneously with the new definition of effective not area modify the above conclusion, l'a addition, the traditional upper limit on the critical not area of 85% of the

           -          gross area (a requirement of the old code) is no longer a requirement of the new code. Both of these changes interact with the new effective not area requirement.

A yalid assessment of the ef,fect of these ch,anges is best accomplished by a comparison of the allowable load each code perants in tension members. If one considers the allowable load on the effective not area, the value based on the new code is a function of three variables: the new reduction coefficient, the not area,* and the ultimate tensile strength of the steel. The allowable ! load based on the old code is a function of only two variables: the net area and the yield strength of the steel. First,' form the load ratio of the allowable load defined by the new code criteria to the allowable load defined by the old code criteria. Next, consider the ranges of all of the parameters mentioned above, this ratio will have defined upper and lower limits which are a function of the ratio of the not areas, the new code net area reduction factor, and the ratio of the steel ultimate strength to the yield strength. For all the steels allowed under the new code, this load ratio ranges from 1.5 to 0.69. For all the steels allowed under the old code, this load ratio ranges from 1.6 to 0.88. It is apparent that, for those steels with load ratios less than 1.0, the new code is less conservative than the old. . The margin of safety of some older designs therefore could be significantly lower when checked against the new code requirements. 2.6 SEEAR I4ED IN COPED BEAMS The 1980 AISC code [3] introduces additional control over the shear load permitted at beam end connections where the top flange has been coped. 1

                          *In making this comparison, one must be careful to note that the net area is not always the same under the old and new codes.                                                             , , .

TER-C5506-423 Web shear control in older codes did not distinguish between coped and eW beams or between shear allowed at connections and over the free span The shear ., (escept for requiring reinforcement of thin webs at connections) . load allowed was given by: allowable shear load = 0.4 (yield strength) (gross web section) . The 1980 Code retains this limit, but intrMuces an additional requirement to protect against a failure mode associated with coped beams. For coped beams (and similar. situations), a portion of the web may sever, failing along the perimeter of the connection holes. In particular, coped beam web connections where the fastener holes lie close to the butt end of the beam may be prone to such failures. This web " tear out" failure is actually a combination of shear failure through the line of fasteners together with tensile failure across the shortest path to the beam end. The failure surface turns a corner with shear failure along a line trending upward through the holes, combined with tensile failure across a more-or-less horizontal line running out to the beam end. The newly introduced shear limit is given as a function of the minimum not failure surface and the steel ultimate strength. Thus, the new requirements may or any not control a coped beam's allowable capacity in shear. Whether or not it does depends on both the connection geometry and the type of steel used. Itsen this requirement is controlling, coped beams designed by previous - rules may be found, if checked against the new criteria, to have significantly smaller margins of safety than previously thought. 2.7 COLtDel WEB STIFFENERS AT FRAME JOINTS The more recent editions of the AISC code mandate which columns must be stiffened at locations where beams of girders are rigidly attached to the column flange and also establish requirements for the geometry of such web stiffeners. These requirements are introduced to preclude local crippling at y- l such frame joints. l ranklin Research Center A Osnamn cd The P6 mumans

TER-C5506-423 No such guidance was provided by AISC-63 [2]. Older codes (such as AISC-63) left such matters to the designer's discretion.' Consequen'tly, there

                -         is no assurance that all such columns are adequately stiffened for current                                                                                                            l accident and faulted loadings.

2.8 LATERAL SCDPORT SPACING IN FRAMES (PLASTIC DESIGN ISTROD) The 1980 AISC Code contains changed spacing requirements for lateral supports .in portions of members in frames where failure mecnanisms are expected to form at ultimate load. Members of such frames must not only be capable of developing a plastic hinge, but must also be stable eTough to sustain moments larger than those computed on an elastic-perfect-plastic theory (because real steels work-harden at strains expected to occur at hinge locations) . Previous lateral bracing requirements were developed for a limited range of steels. Research on high-strength steels has shown that, for certain ranges of slenderness ratio of the compression flange of such frame members, older specification bracing requirements were not sufficiently conservative. The new specification requirements make the slenderness ratio limits a function of the steel yield strength and the member curvature (as expressed by the ratio of the lesser bending moment at the ends of the unbraced segment to the plastic mesent) . The new specifications are more cor ervative for (1) any segment bent in double curvature regardless of its steel specification and (2) very . high-strength steel members. The adequacy of frame usabers bent in single curvature an4 constructed of steels whose yield strength exceeds 36 kai should be examined on a case-by-case basis. The new requirements may reduce the margins of safety thought to exist in:

1. structures designed under the plastic requirements of older codes l
2. elastica 11y designed structures sized to carry a smaller maximum f load than is now required by current accident and faulted load -

combinations. In this case, plastic logic say have to be invoked to justi'fy the adequacy of exisiting structures. Nonconformance with l ranklin Research Center A Dheesen af The Fransen inmandar

   '                           ACI 349-76 (4], Section 11.13 contains design requirements for short no brackets and corbels which are considered primary load-carrying members comparable requirements are provided in ACI 318-63 (5].

The requirements apply to brackets and corbels having a shear span-to-depth ratio of unity or less. They provide minimum and maximum limits on tension and shear reinforcement, limits on ultimate shear stress in concrete, and constraints on seaber geometry and location of reinforcement. Brackets and corbels designed under earlier codes any or may not satisfy the newly imposed limits. If they do not, they any be prone to non-ductile failure (which occurs suddenly and without warning) and may exhibit ==mit er margins of safety than those currently required. 2.10 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR WhLIE 2.10.1 Shear Walls ACI 349-76, Sections 11.15.1 through 11.15.6 specify requirements for reinforcing and permissible shear stresses for in-plane shear loads on walls. The ACI 318-63 Code had no specific requirements for in-plane shear on shear walls. 2.10.2 Punching Shear ACI 349-76, Section 11.15.7 specifies permissible punching shear stresses for walls. ACI 318-63 had no specific provisions for walls for these stresses. Punching loads are caused by relatively concentr ted lateral loads on the walls. These loads may be from pipe supports, equipment supports, duct supports, conduit supports, or any other component producing a lateral load on a wall. p. nklin Research Center

These provisions specify reinforcing and stress requirements for situations where it is inappropriate to consider shear as a measure of di c el tension. 2.12 ELEMENTS SUBJECT TO TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS The ACI 349-76 (4), Appendix A requirements for consideration of temperature variations in concrete were not contained in ACI 318-63. These new provisions require that the effects of temperature gradients and the difference between mean temperature and base temperature during normal operation or accident conditions be considered. The new provisions also require that thermal stresses be evaluated considering the stiffness and rigidity of.nenbers and the degree of restraint of the structure. 2.13 COLUBSIS WITH SPLICED REINFORCING The ACI 349-76, Section 7.10.3 requirements for columns with spliced reiMorcing did not exist in the ACI 318-63 Code. The ACI 349-76 Code requires that splices in each face of a column, where the design load stress in the longitudinal bars varies from fy in compression to 1/2 fy in tension, be developed to provide at least twice the calculated tension in that face of the column (splices in combination with unspliced bars can provide this if applicable). This code change requires that a minimum of 1/4 of the yield capacity of the bars in each face of the column be developed by both spliced .. and unspliced b.tra in that face of the column. 2.14 EMBEDMENTS Appendix B of ACI 349-80 provides rules for the design of steel embedmonts in concrete the design of embedmonts is not specifically addressed in ACI 318-63. *, I l Current requirements of Appendix B are based upon ultimate strength design using factored loads.

TER-C5506-423 imposed on the structure, and the presence of sufficient reinforcement to assure that the assumed shear capacity of concrete can be developed. Sufficient diagonal reinforcement (or its demonstrated equivalent) is to be supplied to carry, without ascessive strain, shear in excess of that permitted in the concrete. A anjor consideration here is the preservation of the structural integrity of the liner. In containments constructed to older codes, such matters were left to the discretion of the designer, who may or any not have provided the horizontal shear capacity at controlled strains that the code currently requires. 2.17 AREAS OF CONTAIlOENT SEEI4 SUBJECT TO PERIPHERAL SEEAR Concrete containment design is currently governed by the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Division 2,198C [6] .

These provisions are similar to the ACI 318-63 code (5] provisions for slabs and footings, except that the allowable punching shear stress in CC-3421.6 includes the effect of shell membrane stresses. For membrane tension, the allowable concrete punching shear stress in the ASME Code is less than that allowed by ACI 318-63. 2.18 AREAS OF CONTAI15EENT mRr1 SUE 7ECT TO TORSION Concrete containment design is currently governed by the ASME Boiler and Pressure vessel Code, Section III, Division 2, 1980.

An assessment is to be made of the analytical methods used to determine ' those thermal stresses as compared to current code-acceptable practices, e.g., discussed in ACI 349.1R-80 and the cosumentary to ACI 3495-40. , l If the methods used for design produce stress results which are signifi-cantly different from those current procedures generate, perceived margins of safety could be affected. 2.20 AREAS OF COIrfAlleEENT SEILL SUBJECT TO BIAXIAL TENSION Increased tensile development lengths are required by section CC-3532.1.2 of Reference 6 for reinforcing steel bars terminated in areas of reinforced l For concrete containment structures which may experience biaxial tension. f I biaxial tension loading, har development lengths, including both straight embedmont lengths and equivalent straight length for standard hooks, are required to be increased by 25% over the standard development lengths required for uniaxial loading. teominal temperature reinforcement is excluded from these special provisions. ACI 318-43 had no requirements related to this e increase in development length. 2.21 BRACKETS AND CORBELS (ON THE COIrrAI19 TENT SEELL) . The ACI 318-43 Code did not spec,1fy requirements for brackets and corbels. Provisions for these components are included in the ASME Boiler and Pressure vessel Code, Section III, Division 2, Section CC-3421.I.

TER-C5506-423 provisions apply to brackets and corbels having a shear-span-to-depth ratio of unity or less. The Provisions specify minimum and maximum limits for tensicn and shear reinforcing, limits on sasar stresses, and constraints on the mestier geometry and placement of reinforcing within the member.

review work and its findings when the review was completed.

1 These tables are intended to: I 1. establish a systematic and comprehensive review procedure

2. senadardise, as such as possible, the review process for all licensees i
3. present a relatively compact overview of each licensee's SEP Topic
;                                          III-7.5 compliance status.

Two such forms were prepared, one related to design code changes and the other to the differences between loads and load combinations used for design i and loads and load combinations current today.* i The form sheets provide space to summarise key infor'aation reported in licensee responses. Certain items (such as descriptions of Scale A code changes, conclusions, and comments) frequently are not adaptable to , I, abbreviated summary. For such iteme, the form sheets refer the reader either to sections of this TER where the mak.ter is developed more fully or to an extended note list compiled on separate sheets. The note list, although detached from the main table in order to allow a fuller discussion, accompanies each table and should be regarded as an integral part of it. The form sheet consists of four major columnar sections which

1. identify each Scale A itsa
2. state the action that the licensee took or the logic that the licensee presented to resolve the item I 3. provide an assessment of engineering conclusions that may be reasonably drawn from the evidence provided l
                             *The tables for load and load combinations do not appear in this report because                       ~

RG&E plans to address these matters fully and in due course as pst of their

                                " Structural Reanalysis Program." However, for each Seismic Categcty I ctructure, BGEE listed currently appropriate lead combinations; this ?s discussed later.

summarise the licensee's compliance status with respect to the ites. i Items' listed on the tables are designed code . changes (or itemized load combinations) designated scale A. This list is drawn directly from g TE3H:5257-322, the earlier report on this topic [1] . , Licensees may choose to address potential concerns stemming from Scale A items in two ways: ,

1. generically, i.e., on an overall basis which resolves the concern for all plant structures collectively, or i
2. on a structure-by-structure basis. l The form sheets are compiled in a manner matching the licensee's approach, with one form sheet containing generically treated matters and with st.ructure-specific form sheets for each structure-specific satter.

Form sheets summarizing the review findings concerning the licensee's compliance status with respect to the implementation of SEP Topic III-7.B A discussion of aspects related to design code changes follow in Section 4. the review findings concerning the licensee's compliance status with respect to load and load combination changes is presented in Section 5. e t e I G y-

TER-C5506-423 NDfES: . , In the following notes, the Licensee's conclusion is presented first,

         .followed by the reviewer's coments, if any, in brackets.

C-1. Se review showed that the steel beam section was adequate to carry l the applied loads and that composite action was not relied upon. l C-2. The a alysis showed that composite design was not required for these beams and the Licensee surmised that the existing shear connectors were provided to preclude lateral torsional buckling in the top flange. C-3. The review showed no use of hybrid girders in plant structures. C-4. The review showed that, under normal load combinations, none os' the too section failed the code check for members in compression. C-5. The results of the generic review showed that, for the structural materials used in the Ginna plant, the AISC 1963 Code provides a more conservative design. (For this design code change, the conservatism or nonconservatism of the 1963 AISC Code is material dependent. For the Ginna plant, where all structural members are of A-36 steel, the conclusion that the 1963 AISC Code is more conservative is correct. However, this is not necessarily true of plants which also use other construction materials, particularly the higher strength steels.] C-6. In all cases, it was found that the beam capacity was controlled by one of the three other loading limits cited and not by the block shear capacity. [ Positive evidence that coping will not reduce safety margins is provided for those beams which pass comparison tests 2 and 3. For such beams, the critical section controlling beam capacity is not through the coping but elsewhere. Determination of coping acceptability by test 1 shows that safety margins (although smaller than formerly perceived to be) are still code acceptable for the loads that the Licensee considered, i.e. , normal operating conditions. In any case, since to date only normal operating loads have been considered in the Licensee's review of this item, any structural concern about the acceptability of coped members at the Ginna plant ~ is relegated to the review of member acceptability under the portion of the III-7.B topic devoted to loads and load combinations.]  :- ranidin Research Centes A Ommen of The Fe insumme _ - - _ . _ - _ _ . _ , _ - ,- . .- . - _ . - - - . _ . - , . , - _ - - - . . _ , . - - - . .., . ~ . - - , . , , . - _ _

C-4. No evidence was found of plastic design methods being used. C-9. Evaluation of the twelve corbels showed:

a. Six of seven corbels supporting primary structural elements met
 .                                                                                       code requirments. One did not conform with the minimum

, '- reinforcing requirements but its stresses were too small tc be of concern.

b. The five corbels which support secondary elements did not comply with the code requirements for reinforcing. However, all five have insignificant stresses.

C-10. S e evaluation showed

a. S e shear walls in the auxiliary building, intermediate building, control building, containment interior structures, and screenhouse met the code requiraraents,
b. L'he shear walls in the diesel generator building did not meet current code criteria because of the new code provision for in-plane shear. ,

4 C-11. Se evaluation found that, in all cases, the walls met the code required factor of safety for punching ahear. C-12. The results showed: I

a. Six groups representing 26 conditions had safety factors that were equal to or greater than the code-required factor of safety, considering only code-satisfying reinforcing.
b. Five groups representing 108 conditions met the code-required factor of safety, considering code-satisfying reinforcing plus taking credit for any additional well-anchored reinforcing installed.
c. Two groups representing three conditions met the code-required '

factor of safety for shear stresses in unreinforced concrete. l d. One group representing six conditions (beam pockets for beam supporting the intermediate building floor) had an actual factor of safety less than the code requires, but greater than unity against ultimate failure.

made by the Licensee in support of its conclusions. It was noted that the loading combination used in this computation was the most severe of the operating loads (which included the operational basis earthquake) . However, a more severe loading would appear to occur under accident conditions (for example, a load combination including the safe shutdown earthquake). If the same procedure used for the check computations made by the Licensee were applied to tho latter loading, it appears that the beam pockets would exhibit a factor of safety less than 1. However, the check coagutation is conservative. It relies on the shear capacity of the concrete alone and takes no credit for additional shear resistance provided by existing - bearing plate anchors and other reinforcement that may also be present.]

e. One group representing two conditions met the code required factor of safety assuming an in-aitu concrete strength (f'c) of 3300 pai, as opposed to the 28-day strength of 3000 pri. This in-situ strength is' judged to be reasonable.

[Tne reviewers concur that it is reasonable to expect a long-terza strength increase of at least this auch.]

f. S e results for the screenhouse show the safety factors are greater than those required by the code.

I C-13. The factor of safety found for the cable tunnel was greater than the code requires. Basd on this " worst case," the remaining five elements were judged to est .he current code requirements. I ( i C-14. Se evaluation found all concrete columns ==amined met the :. ode required factor of safety. C-15. ne'sults of the evaluations

a. Of the 46 column anchorages evaluated, 22 did not meet the ACI 349-80 Code,
b. Of the 22 that did not meet the code, 5 anchorages were unacceptable for the applied loads.

Using statistical projection, at a 954 confidence level, no more than 27% of the population of 194 column anchorages would have unacceptable margins of safety for normal load combinations.

d. For the groups with 10-in and 24-1/4-in diameter sleeves, the shell capacity was shown adequate.
e. For the 29-in and 45-1/4-in diameter sleeve groups (feedwater and mainstream penetrations), the shell was found not to meet the current code-required factor of safety using pipe rupture loads from the original plaat design calculations. However, the actual factor of safety is greater than 1.0.

C-17. A torsional shear stress check was not required. C-18. In all of the 13 areas evaluated, the provided tensile development lengths exceeded ASME Code requirements. l

Although the concrete .shell and liner form an intergral structure and are currently designed to the same code provisions, the liner was given individual attention in the Topic III-7.B study because of the special considerations associated with it. Primary among these considerations is maintenance of liner integrity. Loading cases 7, 8, and 14 are retained as scale A , pending:

1. Resolution under Topic III-6 of effects associated with pipe l

reactions occurring inder accident or faulted service conditions. ..

2. Resolution of concerns for done liner integrity raised in AUREG/CA 2580.

nG&E has demonstrated in Section 3, Attachment 2 of Anference 3 that load combinations 10 and 13 may be removed from the list. This was based on the Licensee's response concerning loading case 10 which states:

                                  "It was shown in the SER's for SEP Topics III-2 and III-4.A, that the Spent Fuel Pool would not be affected by wind and tornado (including missile) loadings."

l Concerning loading case 13, the Licensee stated:

                                  "The spent fuel pool was shown to be adequate to withstand SSE loads, per                                                                                  .

NUREG/CR-1821. Temperature variations as the result of failures in the Spent Fyel Pool Cooling system were considered, and found acceptable, in the NBC's SER for SEP Topic IX-1, ' Fuel Storage', dated January 27, 1982." De original analysis of the spent fuel pool treated earthquake leadings using static equivalent forces; current practice requires dynamic analysis. However, because the pool is a massive structure and because of its location, it is expected to respond to earthquake loads without appreciable amplification . or structural deformations. Consequently, it seems reasonable to expect that static and dynamic treatment should not produce widely divergent results.

RG&E states that loading combination 13 reduces to loading combination 9, a case tr'e'ated in the original analysis of the auxiliary building. Except for regions local to pipe penetrations or pipe supports (or the like), this equivalency does exist. However, it should be made clear that absence of a Scale A citation of a previously analyzed load combination does not necessarily reflect tacit agreement that existing analytical results are in full accord with current criteria. It merely indicates that some other loading . combination was deemed likely to be more significant. p." - l 000 Frankun Research Center 4one. awn.r, en m C-- - -e- - ,c--e, e- .- we-.-w-c- -~e- - -.s g- . w.---,- - - , y -mw. --- - - ---w- g - - - -- ---g- - -m-%9y

Topic III-7.B and that RG&E has supported its findings concerning Ginna Unit i rith a considerable body of analytical evidence developed during the course of its review of this topic. A number of items were found to be unresolved and.these are cited in 4ections of this report dealing with the review findings. Se remaining items primarily relate to the assessaant of effects that currently defined loads and loading combinations for extreme environmental and faulted service conditions any have on perceived margins of safety in building structures v. hat are determined to be essential to safe shutdown, especially when these ars taxen in conjunction with Scale A design code changes. l RG&E plans to address these items in due course under their structural reanalysis program. All plant modifications that may be found necessary to comply with the objectives of the Systematic Evaluation Program are to be , l constructed to current design codes and to currently specified loads and loading combinations. S us, for all modified plant structures, Topic III-7.B will be fully resolved. It is anticipated, however, that sovee structures determined to be essential to safe shutdown will be found acceptable as built. It is likely that determination of acceptability will be br. sed primarily on a demonstration , that the general sizing of major structural elements in these buildings is adequate to sustain current loads and load combinations. A number of the design code changes, however, relate to the adequacy of specific structural details. It is therefore reconsended that a review of remaining Topic III-7.B items for essential structures which are retained as-built be incorporated as a specific aspect of RG&E's structural reanalysis program.
