- 6. Cygna Phase 3 Final Report, TR-84042-01, Revision 1, Observation PI-00-05, and PFR-01 Sunnary: The pipe stress seismic analyses did r.ot include sufficient modes to comply with the FSAR which reauires that the in-clusion of additional higher order model should not increase system response by more than 10%. In addition, the mass point spacing for the dynamic analyses did not always meet project criteria.
Status: Reference 5 documents Cygna's evaluation of the Gibbs & Hill piping reanalyses and lists recommended actions. No response has been received from TUGC0/ Gibbs & Hill at this time.

Reference:
- 1. Cygna Phase 1 and 2 Final Report, TR-83090-01, Revision 0, Observation PI-02-05 Summary: Cygna noted one instance in which the nozzle allowables were calculated using an incorrect wall thickness.
Status: Closed out based on expanded review to include the pumps on the diesel generator system.
- 3. Finite Element Model Error in Flued Head Analysis
Reference:
- 1. Cygna Phase 1 and 2 Final Report, TR-83090-01, Revision 0, Observation PI-03-01 Summary: The flued head finite element model was found to contain a geometry error due to improper generation of some elements.
Status: Closed based on review of 15 of the remaining 18 flued head analyses.
- 4. Inclusion of Fluid and Insulation Weight at Valves and/or Flanges
Reference:
- 1. Cygna Phase 3 Final Report, TR-84042-01, Revision 1, Observation PI-00-04 and Section b.1.,
Page 5-6 Sumary: Cygna found that it was Gibbs & Hill's standard practice not to include fluid and insulation weight at valves and flanges.
Status: Closed for the CCW system based on a Gibbs & Hill study which demonstrated that the effect is minor. Tne effects must still be considered in a cumulative effects review.

- 7. Snubbers Close to Equipment Nozzles
Reference:
- 1. Cygna Phase 4 Pipe Stress Walkdown Checklists (not issued)
Summary: Cygna noted several snubbers on the Component Cooling Water System (CCW) which were located close to equipment nozzles.
Due to their proximity to a rigid attachment point, the dy-namic displacements at these locations will be very small such that the snubbers may not perform their intended func-tion.
Status: Closed with Cygna's recommendation that these snubbers be candidates for a snubber elimination program.
- 8. Lack of Traceability for ANSYS/Relap Runs
Reference:
- 1. Communications Report between S. Lim (Gibbs &
Hill) and L. Weingart (Cygna) dated 3/8/84, 8:45 a.m.
- 2. Comunications Report between H. Mentel (Gibbs &

- 3. Communications Reports between S. Lim (Gibbs &
Hill) and L.Weingart (Cygna) dated 3/15/84, 8:15 a.m.
Summary: There are four programs utilized by Gibbs & Hill in performing a steam hammer analysis:
- 1. RELAP
- 2. GHFORCE - provides imbalance loads
- 3. Program to convert to ANSYS format
- 4. ANSYS Sufficient documentation did not exist to provide cross referencing of the four runs for a particular Main Steam loop. .

84042.022, dated January 18, 1985 "Open Items Associated with Walsh/Doyle Allegations" Summary: The weight of the pipe supports was included in the stress analyses for the Main Steam Inside Containment only. In Reference 1 Cygna requested justification for this prac-tice. Gibbs & Hill responded in Reference 2 by pointing out that the supports associated with the Main Steam lines were relatively massive and as such, a judgement was made to include their mass in the stress analysis. For other systems, a judgement was made that the effects would be negligible. However, per Reference 4, the effect of this; omission on support loads was shown to be as high as 24% on the RHR system. ,,,
Status: Open, however, per Reference 7, item 13, further Cygna review is not authorized.

- 2. Cygna Phase 3 Final Report, TR-84042-01, Revision 1, Observation PI-00-01 Susumary: Cygna found numerous instances where G&H either neglected to input the required SIF into the stress analysis (References 1 & 2) or miscalculated the SIF (Reference 2).
Status: Closed based on expanded reviews; however, this problem should be checked as part of the mass participation reviews.
- 11. Welded Attachments
References:
- 1. Cygna Phase 1 and 2 Final Report, TR-83090-01, Revision 0, Observation PI-00-02 and PI-02-03
- 2. Cygna Phase 3 Final Report, TR-84042-01, Revision 1, Observations PI-00-02 and PI-06-01 Susunary: Cygna found several problems with G&H's treatment of welded attachments:
- Use of an increased allowable in the eva-luation of local stresses for upset and emergency combinations (Reference 1).
e Use of thermal expansion loads rather than load ranges for evaluation of local stresses (Reference 1).
- Failure to consider local stresses in break exclusion zones (Reference 2).
e Failure to consider combined effects of two
- supports at a single welded attachment '
(Reference 2). ,
Status: Closed based on the use of rationale from later codes, '
recalculations, and expanded reviews.

Review Issues List ;
Summary: Cygna had asked TUGC0 how the designers ensured that the al-lowables they used for pipe support attachments correspond l to the installed Richmond Insert spacing. TUGC0 responded .
by stating that their designers used minimum allowables, un- l less a walkdown was performed to ensure that larger spacings existed, thereby permitting the use of increased allowables.
There was no written procedure documenting this direction to the designers.
While Cygna could not find evidence that this unwritten procedure was not followed, Cygna has no assurance that conservative allowables were always used.

3/28/85 Revision 0 Page 8 PIPE SUPPORTS Review Issues list Summary: Cygna has found two pipe support base plates welded to em-bedded pla es with less than 12" required spacing between the edt .es of the support base plates (per Reference 4).
This was not a CPSES inspection item at the time of the Cygna review (Reference 5); however, the Brown & Root procedure was revised to include the proper checks for pipe supports (Reference 6). Since this affects all hardware attached to embedded plates (HVAC, raceway, and pipe sup-ports), not just a single discipline, and since it was not an inspection item in other discipline procedures (per References 7 and 8), this item has generic implications.
Status: TUGC0 should provida evidence that the spacing requirement has been or will be checked on a plant-wide basis.

! procedure documenting the transmittal of as-built loads on concrete structures to the structural group. Thus there is no assurance-that each erea, particularly near free edges,
- j. is acceptable.

In some cases, this could result in a dimension from 1-1/2 to 3-1/2 inches. While this may have little effect on the bolt load, it does effect the maximum plate stresses by as much as 15%
for a strut, spring, or snubber with a 5' offset.

Phase 3 Open Item," 84042.014, dated 8/10/84 Summary: While most of the discussion on this subject has centered around axial restraints, Cygna is concerned about all types of dual restraint designs (trapezes, double trunnions, riser clamps with shear lugs). TUGC0 has designed each restraint in these cases to take only 1/2 the total load. Also, Gibbs
& Hill stated standard practice in local stress analysis assumes the trunnions equally share the load. Cygna finds this inconsistent with other design organizations, which usually assume one side takes more than 1/2 of the overall support load. TUGC0 is currently performing an assessment in response to Reference 6.

- 4. CPSES FSAR, Sections 3.8.3 and 3.8.4 Summary: Gibbs & Hill design calculations (Reference 3) assumed that the design of cable tray supports was governed by the 1/2 SSE (0BE) seismic event. The assumption was based on a comparison between a 50% increase in seismic accelerations from the OBE event at 4% damping, the SSE event at 5%
damping, and an allowed increase in design stresses of 60%
for the SSE event, per Reference 4.
For the design of structural steel members, the 60% increase cannot be applied to certain allowable stresses. For exam-ple, in weak axis bending of wide flange beams and bending in base plates, increasing the allowable by 33% will result in a stress level equal to yield. In addition, the
- allowable loads for concrete anchors (see Generic Issue 3) cannot be increased by 60% for the SSE event. Neither of the abuve limitations were considered in the selection of
! the governing load case for design.
In order to reduce the loads for SSE, Gibbs & Hill elected to use 7% damping for the cable trays at SSE, as allowed for ,
bolted structures.
l Gibbs & Hill provided tables of peak spectral accelerations for OBE at 4% damping and SSE at 7% damping (Reference 1).
l The reduced SSE accelerations appear to demonstrate that OBE
! governs for support designs on a generic basis. However, .for l supports designed using accelerations for a specific build-ing elevation (e.g., elevations 773', 785' and 790' in the ,,
Safeguards Building) the ratio of SSE to OBE exceeds 33%. l Therefore, SSE can potentially govern the design of these Texas Utilities Generating Company Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station b k A Independent Assessment Program - All Phases l Job No. 84056 1111111lllll111111818411111111

Also see Generic Issue 1.
C. Inconsistent Application of ACI 349-76, Appendix B.
Gibbs & Hill has used the provisions of Reference 1 to qualify several designs. Examples include the qualification of anchorages for Detail "11" ('iibbs & Hill drawing 2323-S-0905, Reference 2) and the use of code provisions as justification for the factors of safety used for Richmond Inserts. However, other code sections, such as B.7.3, which requires a factor of safety of 6.0 for single expansion anchor connections, were not adhered to. Cygna believes that the philosophy of the entire code appendix should be considered prior to employing selected portions of the code.
D. Factor of Safety on Richmond Inserts.
See Item C above.
E. Richmond Insert Design Allowables.
- 1. Prying action was not considered in the original design of Richmond Insert connections for cable tray supports. To qualify those connections which utilize Richmond Inserts, Gibbs A Hill performed calculations which reference the results of the Richmond Insert testing prograrr (Reference 3).
These calculations showed that Richmond Inserts were not the controlling anci'arage type, but rather that the Hilti expansion anchors were the limiting case. Cygna has the following comments regarding these calculations:
, a. The calculations do not account for the instances where the allowable values for Richmond Inserts from Gibbs & Hill Specification 2323-SS-30 (Ta = Va = 11.5 kips) were used without the prying /
factor. This situation could occur whenever a CMC was reviewed. Although .
Gibbs & Hill has stated that their engineers were instructed to include the Texas Utilities Generating Company Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station Ilbilli til jo"f' 11111111111 N5
3/28/85 Revision 8 ;
Page 5 CABLE TRAY SUPPORTS Review Issues List prying factor, Cygna could not locate any supporting documentation.
- b. The original design calculations for concrete connections utilizing Richmond Inserts employed allowable values of tension (Ta = 10.1 k) and shear (Va =
9.5 kips). With the issuance of Gibbs &
Hill Specification 2323-SS-30, restrictions were placed on the al-lowable values for Richmond Inserts.
These restrictions dealt with the use of Richmond Inserts in cluster arrangements and Richmond Inserts used in spacings less than those originally considered by Gibbs & Hill, through a corresponding decrease in allowable tensions and shears. Since these restrictions were imposed after the original design of the Richnend Insert connections was completed, Cygna is concerned that they were not properly evaluated by Gibbs &
Hill. In discussions with TUGCO, Cygna was told that the smaller spacings of Richmond Inserts were for clustered areas that were reserved for whip re-straints. Any use of Richnond Inserts in these areas would require authorization from the responsible group and a corresponding evaluation of the installation.
F. Connection Designs:
The cable tray support designs provide for the use of angles or plates at base connections. These designs also provide for various tolerances in the anchor bolt spacings and member placement. Additionally, field requirements may produce concrete connections which are outside the tolerences provided by the designs. ,
f Gibbs 1 Hill has not fully evaluated the effects of all ,
allowev tolerances on the base member stresses or the anchorages.

In order to reduce the slenderness ratios below 200, calcu-lations were performed to show that k = 0.8 (Reference 1, Sheets 128-146, Revision 3, and Reference 2). These calculations assumed that rotational restraint is provided by the clip angle used to attach the hanger to the bottom of the slab. Additionally, since the compressive load is applied at several points over the length of the member, the allowable axial stress was increased based on the buckling analysis of columns with multiple, discrete axial loads (Reference 4).
Cygna has analyzed one- and two-bolt clip angles under compressive loading and determined that it is reasonable to assume partial rotational fixity for weak axis bending of the attached hanger. The assumption that the tray provides lateral bracing to the frame has not been validated (see Generic Issue 18 for a discussion of tray clamps). Cygna believes that it is acceptable to consider the effective increase in allowable axial loads based upon a multiple load application. However, the increase is a function of the applied loads, and must be calculated individually for each support configuration and load case.
Status: Open pending further discussion with Gibbs & Hill /TUGC0 regarding the Systems Concept (Generic Item 10) and its application to the design of cable tray supports as well as compliance with the AISC specification.

- 4. Gibbs & Hill Calculation Binder 2323-SCS-101C, Set 5 Susumty: Longitudinal trapeze type supports (e.g., L-A1 , L-A4 , L-C4 ,
etc.) were assumed to act independently of the transverse supports (see Reference 4). Calculations for these longi-tudinal supports (Reference 1) consider only longitudinal loads in the design of frame members and anchor bolts.
Since these supports are rigidly connected to the cable trays with " heavy duty clamps", a tributary tray mass will be associated with these supports. It is Cygna's belief that these supports must be designed for vertical and trans-verse seismic loads as are the transverse supports (see References 2 and 3).
Status: Gibbs & Hill should consider these effects in the dynamic analysis of the selected systems being run in response to generic issues. Further consideration must be given to isolate the above effects to ensure acceptability on a generic basis.
- 6. Support Frame Out-of-Plane Inertial Loads
References:
None Summary: Gibbs & Hill did not consider out-of-plane inertial loads in the design of two-way cable tray supports. Such loads should, as a minimum, be considered in the design of base connections and anchorages. Assuming that tray clamps are able to transmit the loads from the two-we supports to the F
cable trays, out-of-plane loads must also be considered in
> the member design of longitudinal supports (see Generic issue 18).
d Status: Gibbs & Hill should provide technical justifica) ion for '
ignoring out-of-plane inertial support loads.

Gibbs & Hill Calculation Binder 2322-SCS-101C. Set 7, Revision 6, dated 9/15/84 Summary: A. Longitudinal cable tray supports typically use angle sections as bracing to resist the longitudinal loads (e.g., SP-7 with brace, L-A 1 , L-A4 , etc). For the member design, loads were assumed to produce only axial stresses. The induced bending stresses due to eccentric end connections were not considered. Neglecting these
. flexural stresses can result in members which are under-designed. For certain longitudinal supports, double angles are required. The design assumes that.the angles behave as a composite member. However, no intermittent filler plates are provided as required by AISC '
Specification Section 1.18.2.4. Thus, the double angles must be considered to act independently. ..

( 5 l
3/28/85 Revision 8 Page 10 CABLE TRAY SUPPORTS Review Issues List B. Transverse and longitudinal cable tray supports typically use angle sections as in-plane braces to resist transverse loads and provide bracing points on the vertical members (e.g., A , A4 , B3 , B 4, L-A 4, etc). For the member design,3 loads were assumed to produce only axial stresses. The induced bending stresses due to eccentric end conditions were not .
considered. Though it is not explicitly stated in the AISC Specifications, it is standard practice (Reference 3, Sheet 3-59) to consider the bending stresses due to end connection eccentricity,and check the interaction ratio considering the principal axes section moduli.
C. Single longitudinal braces are typically connected to the frame by welding along the legs of the angle. Some brace designs provide welding on only one angle leg at one end of the brace; while, at the other end of the brace, welding is provided on the other angle leg. Such end conditions may lead to failure by twist buckling.
Status: A. Gibbs & Hill provided calculations which considered end eccentricities as well as independent action for each angle in double-angle braces (Reference 6). Case L-B4 was assumed to provide enveloping brace loads.
Calculations (Reference 4) were also provided for support type SP-7 with brace, which has a single angle brace. Cygna believes that the approach is acceptable. However, Gibbs & Hill should provide
- justification for the enveloping cases.
B. Gibbs & Hill provided a calculation (Reference 5) which considered eccentric load application for in-plane braces. By reviewing the results of the working point deviation study, Gibbs & Hill found that Case C3 had the highest brace loads. See Generic Issue 12 for a
- discussion of the working point deviation study.
C. Cygna is presently evaluating the possibility of twist-bu:kling on single-angle braces. '

- Summary
- References 2 through 6 established that 1.14 is an i
appropriate dynamic amplification (DAF) factor. The support DAF study was based on continuous, uniformly supported spans. Current CPSES cable tray support design methodology calculates static loads based on tributary length. Any future use of the 1.14 support DAF must account for the difference between the tributary support reactions and the support reactions based upon continuous cable tray spans.
Further, it may not be appropriate to use a DAF of 1.14 if supports are designed using non-uniform tributary span length loads.
Status: No further work is required, but this issue should be considered in any evaluation of cumulative effects. ,

- 2. L.M. Poppelwell (TUGCO) letter to N.H. Williams (Cygna), dated September 28, 1984 with attached calculations Sussnary: Gibbs & Hill has assumed that the cable tray and supports act as a system. As part of this " systems" approach, the following behavior was assumed:
A. For vertical loading, torsion in the beam as well as weak axis bending in the hanger due to the load placement eccentricities is taken out by the tray (References 1 and 2).
B. In the design of trapeze support hanger members for compression loads, the trays provide lateral bracing at points along the length of the hanger (see Generic Issue 1).
C. The longitudinal and transverse support systems act independently. Therefore, the longitudinal supports are designed for longitudinal loads only, i.e., no transverse or vertical load contribution is ccasidered (see Generic Issue 5).
D. Rotation of the base connection angles about the bolt pattern axis is minimzed by the hanger attachment to the tray (see Generic Issue 3).
E. Out-of-plane seismic inertial loads from two-way support frames (self-weight excitation) are resisted by :he longitudinal supports (see Generic Issue 6).

3/28/85 Revision 8 Page 15 CABLE TRAY SUPPORTS Review Issues List Susunary: A. Gibbs & Hill's working point study (References 1 and 2) does not fully consider the effects of change documentation and previously approved design deviations. Cut-off elevations were established using an assumed critical case of 8'-6" spans, enveloping frame dimensions and maximum permissible working point deviations. Frames below the cut-off elevations were not checked for compliance with the study parameters.
Frames above the cut-off elevation were analyzed on a case-by-case basis but did not consider the effects of change notices. The allowable working point deviations resulting from the study were to be used by QC to accept installed supports. Since changes to any one of the above assumed parameters may effect the acceptability of the study, QC's check of working point deviations alone will not assure support acceptability.
B. The effects of vertical and transverse loads on longitudinal support frames were not considered in the working point study (reference Generic Issue 5).
C. The portion of the study that evaluated longitudinal supports only checked member interaction. No evaluation was made to ensure that this component governed the design.
D. Modeling Assumptions
- 1. Instead of modeling a longitudinal support, the ends of the tray run were assumed to be fixed. The effect of this tray tmundary condition on the system response was not justified.
- 2. The analysis assumed a single two-foot tray per beam and did not assess the impact of more realistic multiple tray loadings.
- 3. Eccentricities (reference Generic Issue 10).
- 4. The assumption of tray attachment fixit) to the support was not justified. .

- 6. The base angle modeling assumed a simply supported beam for two bolt base connections.
- 7. Excitation in the longitudinal tray direction was not considered.
Status: Gibbs & Hill /TUGC0 should justify the modeling assumptions, the applicability of the analysis results for global support qualification, and the use of working point deviations by QC to assure support acceptability. The above concerns should be considered in the Gibbs & Hill dynamic analysis of the five selected cable tray systems.

- 3. Gibbs & Hill Calculation Binder SCS-215C, Set 4 Summary: For the qualification of the supports discussed below, Gibbs
& Hill used reduced spectral accelerations based on a calcu-lated support-tray system frequency A. For the analysis of transverse supports, such as type A4 which was used in analysis of Alternate Detail 1 (Reference 1), a reduced acceleration was used. This acceleration is based on a' calculated frequency which is
. beyond the spectral peak. The study assumes a tray weight of 35 psf and tray spans of 8'-6". Use of this study's results will not be valid in installations where either of the above parameters have been exceeded without considering the effect on frequency.
B. Similarly, for longitudinal supports (e.g., type SP-7 -

" Structural members shown on drawing numbers 2323-S-900 series may be substituted by one step heavier shape of the same size."
Cygna interprets this note as allowing craft to interchange structural shapes, e.g., an MC for a C or vice versa, as long as the substituted shape is heavier than, but of the same depth as the original members.
This would allow the use of substitute sections which have lower section moduli. TUGC0 has stated that they interpret this note as requiring the craft to stay with the same shape, i.e., a C section can only be substituted by a C section (Reference 1).
B. Within Cygna's :.alkdown scope, support number 6654 (see Generic Issue 6) was reviewed and found to be an example of Cygna's concern as discussed above. The design required an MC6x12 and the installed member was a C6x13 for a whichhasasmallersectiongdulus(S=5.80in3 C6x13 compared to S = 6.24 in for an MC6x12). For the other supports listed in Generic Issue 6, the required MC6x12's were substituted with C6x8.2's, a substitution not permitted by this note.

3/28/85 Revision 8 Page 22 CABLE TRAY SUPPORTS Review Issues List Summary: Cygna's review of cable tray attachments to embedded plates indicated that the allowables for the embedded plates may not have included the effects of prying action (Reference 1). Additionally, questions from Cygna's pipe support reviewers and cable tray reviewers on the stiffening re-quirements for embedded plate moment connections elicited conflicting responses from TUGC0 personnel. One response indicated that attachments to embedded plates act as stif-feners for moment connections (Reference 2) while another indicated that any moment attachment must be stiffened or sufficiently analyzed (Reference 3).

- 1. The SP-7 weld underrun analysis considered 5/16" fillet welds which are specified on the design drawings. However, the FSE-00159 fabrication drawings specify smaller weld sizes. In addition, the underrun analysis did not consider the effects of any design changes to the supports which were reported in CMC's and DCA's.
- 2. Working point studies (reference Generic Issue 12).
D. Inconsistent application of as-built and design information in the evaluation of cable tray supports for Thermolag application:
- 1. Tray cover weights were not included in the development of the allowable span length table (Procedure CP-El-4.0-49).
- 2. Cygna believes that longitudinal supports are not evaluated for the added weight of fire protection. Evidence of the above includes the fire protection review for the tray run containing Detail "N" (Gibbs & Hill Drawing 2323-El-0601-02-S) which did not note th lack of any longitudinal supports in the tray run.
- 3. Fire protection evaluations are performed on a tray-by-tray basis. The cumulative effect of multiple trays with fire protection on one support may not be cons.dered.

Review Issues List I E. Tray span between supports used in the original support layout: :
- 1. Reference 9 indicates that cable tray supports i
are to be designed for 8'-0" spans. Reference 10, Note 13, allows a location tolerance for supports of
- 1/2 Richmond Insert spacing parallel to the tray, and limits the maximum spacing between supports to 9'-0." Gibbs &. i Hill cable tray support design calculations i
assume a maximum tributary span of 8'-6," to account for a support spacing of 8'-0" on ,
i center and an erection tolerance of
- 6." ;
Cygna reviewed Reference 12 and noted 14 locations where the as-designed tray spans exceeded 8'-0." Cygna's walkdown of these 1
tray segments discovered five locations where the as-built tray spans exceeded 9'-0" (see Reference 11). This indicates that the design ;
and installation limitations for support-l spacings were not adhered to.
- 2. Longitudinal support designs indicate that the maximum longitudinal tray span is ~40'-0". For several supports within Cygna's review, the support plan drawings (Reference 12) 'specified j these supports to have tributary spans greater i than 40'-0" (see Reference 11). In addition, several horizontal tray segments were not i provided with longitudinal supports (see i
Reference 11). .This indicates that the design
-limitations for the location of longitudinal supports were not adhered to.

- 1. Cygna has noted instances where the field design review group did not utilize the proper criteria to evaluate support adequacy. The evaluations for fire protection compared the actual load to a design load based upon a 9'-
0" tributary tray span. The maximum tributary span assumed in the current design is 8'-6".
- 2. Cygna has asked what supplements to the 7th Edition of AISC Specifications were committed to in the FSAR. No evidence was found to indicate that proper direction was given to design engineers to utilize the requirements of any supplements to which CPSES was committed.
Status: A. No further discussion is required.
B. Gibbs & Hill has indicated that the engineer preparing a support layout drawing would be familiar with the design limitations. Based upon engineering judgement, these limitations could be exceeded without preparing supporting calculations, since the support map drawings would be subject to design review.
For the individual supports referenced above:

References:
- 1. Communications Report between R. Kissinger (TUGCO), B. Bhujang (Gibbs & Hill), and J. Russ and N. Willians (Cygna) dated 10/1/84 Summary: A. Gibbs & Hill calculations assumed that the design of conu.it supports was governed by the 1/2 SSE (0BE) seism:c event. The assumption was based on a comparison between a 50% increase in seismic accelerations from the OBE event at 2% damping, the SSE event at 3% damping, and an allowed increase in design stresses of 60% for the SSE event, per Reference 4.
B. For the design of structural steel members, the 60%
increase cannot be applied to certain allowable stresses. For example, using a 33% increase, allowable stresses for weak axis bending of wide flange beams and bending in base plates will equal the yield stress. The allowable loads for concrete anchors cannot be increased by 60% for the SSE event. Additionally, the catalog component allowables are not allowed an increase for SSE loads. The above limitations were not considered in the selection of the governing load case for design.
Status: Discussion with Gibbs & Hill is required. Also see Cable Tray Generic Item 1.

Status: TUGC0/Gibbs & Hill are evaluating the effects of torsion in the Unistrut test program. Cygna personnel visited the CCL test labs (Reference 4) and provided t.he following comments on the test scope and procedures:
- 1. Worst case support configuration:
- The chosen member lengths and load magnitudes and directions may not be the critical case.
Cygna noted that the selected configurations nuy not adequately address torsional behavior of the generic support design or address the capability of the spot welds to resist tensile forces.
- Documentation is not readily available to evaluate the criteria used in choosing the test configurations.
- The choice of larger diameter conduits for some supports precludes testing of P2558 clamps, since C708-S clamps are required for large conduits.
- 2. Direction of loading to test weak link:
- Clanp loadings should induce tensile forces in the clamp bolts. Many tests load the members
- in bearing instead of maximizing clamp load.
1
- For composite Unistrut sections, the loading direction should be selected to provide tensile load: on spot welds to test the, ,,
integrity of the composite section. .

Summary: A. In addition to Cygna's comments on the implicit increase in allowables for SSE loads (see Item 1), Cygna has other concerns regarding the support designs using catalog components.
AISC-derived allowables are used in the design process. These values are generally conservative for bending, but are generally unconservative for axial allowables, as catalog allowables are based on the AISI Code which considers buckling of thin, open sections.
- Examples of Cygna's concern are discussed below:
Mg 3 mmRNNWWNNNWW Texas Utilities Generating Company Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station Independent Assessment Program - All Phases Job No. 84056
3/28/85 Revision 0 Page 7 C0mulT SUPPORTS Review Issues List
- CSM-6b: 20 ksi was used for Fa, the axial allowable. This value is equal to
.6 Fy, where Fy = 33 ksi and was used for any member length which neglects slenderness effects.
Catalog values range from 5.77 ksi for a brace length of 60" to 13.9 ksi for a 24" brace.
- CST-3: The design employed the AISC table of axial stress allowables for 36 ksi steel.
- CST-17: The design employed the AISC tables of axial stress allowables for 36 ksi steel. The table value was then reduced by a ratio of 33/36.
B. Use of components in ways not intended by the vendors.
! Cygna concerns in this area are as follows:
- Allowables are not listed for P1001C3 sections in the Unistrut catalog. Member properties are given for the X-Y axes instead of the principal axes. Discussions with Unistrut indicate that the uses of P1001C3 are unique with respect to load application and member
! restraint. Thus, no generic allowables can be provided. Unistrut places the burden on tha designer to properly consider the capacity of the section for its intended use.
- The Unistrut catalog indicates that the intended use of P1325, P1331, P1332 brackets
! is for single members in a pinned connection. Gibbs & Hill uses two brackets on double members, which Cygna believes to be a ,
moment resisting connection. Gibbs & Hill .
I considers these connections pinned for some brackets in CSM-6b, CST-3, and CST-17 type' m.
! supports. However, Unistrut docs not provide allowables for this bracket configuration.

This connection is subject to tensile and shear loads. The test prcvided data only on loading the bracket in tension. Gibbs & Hill compared the calculated tensile load to the allowable, ignoring the calculated shear.
- P1941 plate connectors are used to connect headers to outriggers in CA-la and CA-2a supports. Gibbs & Hill calculations indicate that tightening the Unistrut bolts to the specified torque overstresses the plate and causes excessive bowing of the plate.
Discussion with Unistrut indicates that these connectors are to be used to construct frames where the connected members are restrained at both ends. Clarification of this concern is required for CA-la and CA-2a supports, since the member end restaint required by Unistrut has not been provided.
In Revision 1 of Gibbs & Hill Drawing 2323-S-0910 Sheet CA-la, Note 7, was added to provide P1064 plates if bending of the P1941 plates occurs. In Gibbs & Hill Calculation 2323-SCS-153C, Sheet 1/37, a discussion of field installation practice, documents that the P1064 plates do not reduce the bowing of the outriggers. Unistrut tests showed no bowing of the outriggers when the P1064 plates were used. Verification of the bolt torques used in the test set-up is required. .
e C708-S clamps are not designed for three-directional loading. Allowables for tensile loading only are given in the Superstrut Catalog. ,
Status: TUGC0/Gibbs & Hill should provide technical .
justification for the above issues.

References:
- 1. N.H. Williams (Cygna) letter to J.B. George (TUGCO), " Cable Tray and Conduit Support Review Questions," 84056.015, dated August 6, 1984, question A2b regarding CSD-la Stummary: Cygna has the following concerns regarding anchor bolt designs:
- A prying factor of 1.5 was used in most cases without justification. The Teledyne method predicts higher factors for CSM-18d and CSM-18f (rectangular plates).
- The AISC 8th Edition method was used to omit a prying
' factor for CSD-2 Detail 8 (U-clips).
- No pryi g factor was used for CST-17. Type 17 (box bracket .
- No prying factor was used for CSD-1, Detail 2 (Z-clips). The behavior of this detail is to be addressed in the Unistrut test program.

Sunnary: Some transverse supports may be on the same order of stiffness as long cantilever multi-directional supports.
Since conduit clamps provide restraint in three, directions, longitudinal loads, which were not considered in the design, '
may be imparted to the supports.

- 12. Hilti Kwik-Bolt Substitutions
References:
None Summary: Note 4 on Gibbs & Hill Drawing 2323-5-0910, Sheet G-4a, allows the substitution of all Hilti Kwik- and Super Kwik-bolts with those of a larger size. A reduction in the allowables for the larger bolts may be necessary since the actual spacing may be smaller than that required. Thus, a situation may occur where the replacement bolts have a lower capacity than the bolts in the original design.
Examples of Cygna's concern are described below:
- CSM-18c: 1/2" Hilti Kwik-bolts at 5" spacing were used in the original design.
If all 1/2" bolts are substituted with 3/4" or 1" bolts, the tensile
~
1 allowable for the replacement bolts will be less than the design tensile allowable of 3012 lbs. (2750 lbs for 3/4" bolts and 2930 lbs. for 1" bolts).
i e CSM-42 Type III: 1" Hilti Super Kwik-bolts at 7.5" l'
spacing were used in the original
' design (allowable tension = 12452 lbs, allowable shear = 6884 lbs).
If all 1" bolts are replaced by 1-1/4" bolts of equal embedment, the bolt capacity is significantly l
reduced (allowble tension a 6405
' lbs, allowable shear = 6221 lbs). -

- 13. Substitution of Smaller Conduits on CA-Type Supports
References:
- 1. Comunications Report between S. McBee (TUGC0) and J. Russ (Cygna) dated 3/7/85 Susunary: CA-type supports are designed using ZPA for large (> 2")
diameter conduits while peak accelerations are used for small diameter conduits (<2"). For CA-type supports where capacities are tabulated on the drawings, small diameter conduits may be installed unless specifically prohibited on the drawings. Although the deadweight load of the small diameter conduits must be less than the capacity, the accelerated load of the small diameter conduits may exceed the equivalent accelerated load of the large diameter con-duits considered in the original design.
As an example, support type CA-15 was designed for two 3" conduits with a deadweight capacity of 156 lbs. However, five 1-1/2" conduits can be installed on a CA-15 support, "
giving higher accelerated loads than designed for. The rigid span loads for two 3" conduits are 343 lbs. and 109 lbs. for the vertical and horizontal directions respectively. The flexible span loads for five 1-1/2" conduits are 504 lbs. and 450 lbs. for the vertical and horizontal directions respectively.
This item possibly affects support types CA-6, CA-7, CA-12, CA-14 Series, and CA-16a.
Status: Discussion with TUGC0 and Gibbs & Hill is required. TUGC0 is investigating this item with respect to fire protected supports.

^
Summaary: CA-type supports are used to support LA spans, which are lfaiited to a .6' length. CST-type and CSM-type supports are used to support LS spans, which can be up to 12' for trans-verse spans snd 24' for longitudinal spans. In field in-stallations, when conduits run from walls to equipment in
.the middle of a room, a transition is made between LA spans s .' ;and CS, spans. Thus, CA type supports may support LS spans.
'The concerns are discussed below.
For 'large diameter conduit's (>2"), ZPA was used to calculate s
the accelerated design load. For the CA-type support with an adjacent suspended support (CST- cc CSM-type), the peak acceleration should be used to check support capacity, since rigidity of the transitional span can no longer be guaran-
- teed. There is evidence that decreased support capacity is "'
considered for the fire protected supports (see CP-EI-4.0- -
49), since support capacities are given for both LA spans and LS spans. For, unprotected lines, there is no indication that this was considered.
Status: TUGC0 is investigating the practice for fire protected supports.

- 2. Gibbs & Hill Calculation 2323-SCS-189C, Set 1, Sheets 15-24 Summary: In the revised Gibbs & Hill Drawing 2323-S-0910 package, LA span lengths were increased by a ratio of the refined to the unrefined spectra. Gibbs & Hill provided a calculation to show that the above changes are correct and that rigid spans remain rigid (diameters > 2"). This is adequate for support designs, since support loads are proportional to span lengths. However, an evaluation of the conduit stress is required, since conduit bending stress is proportional to the square of the span length.
' Status: Gibbs & Hill should provide technical justification for the increased span length.

Summary: Tne Nelson stud allowables used by Gibbs & Hill do not conform to those given by TRW/ Nelson.
Gibbs & Hill calculations use the pretension force in the Nelson studs to resist applied conduit loads. The pretension force should consider the flexibility of the shim plate and clamp, as distortion and/or relaxation in these components will decrease the stud preload. Gibbs & Hill provided Cygna with a calculation to address shim plate stresses.
Filler plates with oversized or slotted holes allow the studs to be loaded at the clamp, thus applying a shear load eccentric to .the stud weld. Transfer of side or longitudinal loads on the clamp is provided through shears and bending of the Nelson stud rather than pure shear as considered in the design.
Status: A. Justification of-allowables used for the Nelson studs is required.
B. Further evaluation of the actual preload and its effect on the stud capacity is required.
C. Evaluation of the Nelson studs for any effects due to bending is required. ,
D. Cygna has reviewed the shim plate calculation and requires technical justification of the following issues
' regarding the yield line analysis:
- The reason weld underrun was not included in the analysis. ,
- The assumed stress distribution in the fillet :,
weld around the plate is unrealistic, as it assumes an infinite stress on the bottom of the plate. A more realistic stress Texas Utilities Generating Company -

- 21. Conduit Fire Protection Configuration
References:
- 1. Communication Report between T. Keiss (TUGCO) and W. Horstman, et al. (Cygna) dated 10/16/84 Sunnary: Gibbs & Hill fire protection calculations consider a round configuration of Thermolag material around conduits. The Thermolag weight on the spans was calculated based on this configuration. The Cygna walkdown and discussions with TUGC0 indicate that a square configuration was also used in the field installations. Documentation of the specific configuration installed was not maintained.
Status: Evaluation by Gibbs & Hill of the as-built configuration with respect to the design configuration is required to in-sure that the design adequately envelops the field condi-tion. Preliminary evaluation by Cygna indicates that small unconservatisms exist for some cases. See Item 24 for cum-ulative effects.

- 23. Grouted Penetration Loads
References:
None Summary: For straight conduit runs embedded in walls and floors, longitudinal conduit supports are not required if there are no bends in the run. For very long conduit runs, the loads on the grouted penetrations nay be large.
Status: Technical justification is required for the capability of grouted penetrations to resist longitudinal conduit loads for runs where no other longtidunal supports are consid-ered. These justifications should, as a minimum, address the following:
- The capability of the grout to resist applied loads.
- The documentation and inspection of grouting to validate the analysis assumptions on the ability of penetrations to resist the applied loads.
- 24. Cumulative Effect of Generic Items
References:
None Summary: Small unconservatisms nay usually txt neglected in design.

Hill calculation 229-14. These documents indicated maximums of 121.8'F,135 F and 129.7 F, respectively. TUGC0 provided documentation that showed the acceptability of the 135'F maximum temperature. Some of this documentation is dated as late as 9/28/84 indicating that TUGC0 may not have been aware of the problem prior to the Cygna questions.
Status: Cygna Observation MS-01-01 was closed based on the documen-tation which was provided by TUGCO. However, Gibbs & Hill /
TUGC0 should demonstrate that when design and operating data is revised, all existing system components are reviewed to ensure that they meet the new operating conditions.

- 3. L.M. Poppelwell (TUGCO) letter to N.H. Williams (Cygna) dated September 20, 1984 Summary: The Westinghouse functional design requirements document for the CCW system required that the surge tank be isolated by closing the vent valve on receipt of a high radiation sig-nal. TUGC0/Gibbs & Hill removed this control function from the system radiation monitors to prevent spurious actuation caused by rising system temperature during accidents. Since the change did not address the radiation release effects of the vent remaining open, Cygna requested verification that the release would be acceptable. TUGC0 perforned a calcula-tion which verified that the release was within the limits of 10 CFR 100. No generic review was conducted of other radiation monitor control function changes at CPSES.
Status: Cygna Observation MS-06-01 was closed based on the results of TUGC0 calculation TNE-CA-094 dated September 19, 1984.

"Open Items Associated with Walsh/Doyle Allegations," 84042.022, dated January 18, 1985 Suunary: Per Gibbs & Hill, Class 5 piping is not seismically designed; it is only seismically supported to prevent it from falling on safety related equipment. TUGC0 did provide documentation showing that the specific Class 5 CCW piping that was in Cygna's review scope was seismically analyzed and therefore, would remain functional as required.
However, Cygna could not determine whether any similar circumstances exist in other piping systems where Class 5 piping may be required to remain functional during a seismic event.
Status: Observation MS-02-01 was closed for the CCW system based on the documentation and analyses provided. Gibbs & Hill /TUGC0 should explain the use of Class 5 piping in areas where functionality is required following design basis events.

Sumary: Cygna noted that the double doors between the train A & B nuclear chillers did not have a U.L. fire rating label.
TUGC0 stated that this had been previously noted by them and that the proper door was being installed. TUGC0 could not provide documentation of how the error was noted but did supply copies of a purchase order for the correct door.
Subsequent reinspection by Cygna verified the proper door had been installed. TUGC0 stated that an NCR or other paper work was not initiated since the door is not safety related.
The door is required to meet Appendix R requirements.
Status: TUGC0 should provide assurance that the as-built Appendix R modifications are in conformance with the Appendix R design requirements ard specifications.

dr. (TUGCO), WPT-7436, dated July 23, 1984 Summary: Cygna expressed a concern that if the single temperature controlled isolation valve on the outlet of the reactor coolant pump thermal barrier should fail to close subsequent to a rupture of the thermal barrier, then low pressure portions of the CCW system would be over pressurized and l reactor coolant could be released outside containment.
Westinghouse also notified the NRC and TUGC0 of a similar problem with CCW systems they designed. TUGC0 informed Cygna that they were filing a 50.55E report with the NRC on l
this issue and that they would investigate the generic implications of this finding. Cygna suomitted two letters on this subject to the NRC and TUGC0 in accordance with our review procedures for a Definite Potential Finding. Cygna has not received any of the TUGC0 documents which evaluate i this issue nor has Cygna performed any additional investiga-l tion or review on this issue.
