SUBJECT:

Beaver Valley Power Station - Unit No. 2 Docket No. 50-412 Responses to NRC Structural Engineering Section's Draf t SER Open and Confirmatory Items Gentlemen:

In three separate submittals dated February 27,1984; April 27,1984; k and June 15, 198^, DLC provided responses to all 28 of the NRC Structural Engineering Section's Structural Design Audit Action Items. In an NRC letter dated March 1, 1984, DLC received the first portion of the draft SER which included the Structural Engineering Section's input. The Structural Engi-neering Section identified 13 open items and 2 confirmatory items in this draft SER. Each of these items was directly related to one or more of the 28 Structural Design Audi t action items and, therefore, these items were addressed by DLC in the responses provided for the audit action items.

On November 21, 1984, the NRC informally provided DLC with a written summary of the Structural Engineering Section's remaining open and confirma-tory items. On November 30, 1984, DLC met with the Structural Engineering Section to discuss resolution of these items which ar7 listed in Attachment

1. This list includes the current status of each item, based on the results of the November 30, 1984, meeting. At this meeting, DLC committed to provid-ing a response to Item SRP 3.8.5 (Audit Action Items 6 and 7) and a schedule for submitting the remaining responses as soon as possible.

Attachment 2 provides responses to the following items:

SRP 3.7.1 (Audit Action Item 1)

SRP 3.8.3 ( Audit Action Item 15)

SRP 3.8.3 (Audit Action Item 13)

SRP 3.8.4 (Audit Action Ittm 19)

SRP 3.8.4 (Audit Action Item 22)

SRP 3.8.5 (Audit Action Items 6 and 7)

The following responses will be submitted by December 21, 1984:

SRP 3.8.1 (Audit Action Item 10)

7 Unit:d Stctos Nucle. Rsgulctory Commission Mr. Gsorga W. Knigh6on, Chief Page 2 The response to Item SRP 3.8.5 (Audit Action Items 4, 7, and 23) will be submitted by January 18, 1984. As stated in the November 30, 1984, meeting, DLC will respond to this item by providing an analysis for the containment structure that uses the frequency-dependent impedance approach with the earthquake input motion applied at the foundation level. A discus-sion of the computer program (FRIDAY) used in this analysis will be provided along with varification examples. Comparisons of floor amplified response spectra will be performed if this analysis indicates that they are necessary.

Attachment 3 provides a copy of the report entitled " Soil-Structure Int eract ion in the Development of Amplified Response Spectra for Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit 1" which was submitted by DLC to NRC on June 11, 1979, in response to the NRC's March 13, 1979, Order to Show Cause. This .

report is .being provided in accordance with the Structural Engineering Sect ion's request made at the November 30, 1984, meeting concerning the intake structure. As stated in this meeting, the original design of the intake structure and the 1979 Order to Show cause response included consider-ation of the future BVPS-2 intake structure loads. As further stated in this meeting, it is DLC's position that the intake structure is a BVPS-1/BVPS-2 shared facility that was previously addressed by DLC and reviewed and approved by the NRC under the BUPS-1 docket. Any further analysis of the intake structure requested by the NRC unde r the BVPS-2 docket will be addressed by DLC as a backfit item under Generic Letter 84-08.

. pressure time histories used as a basis for the confirmation are presented in' FSAR Section 6.2, Figures 6.2-50 through 6.2-97. Dynamic-load factors (DLF) were calculated in the same manner as described in our April 27, 1984, _ response for these pressure time histories, and resulted in DLF's ranging from 1.0 to 1.35. Using these DLF's, the cubicles were determined to be structurally adequate.

SRP 3.8.4 '( Audit Action Item 19)

Submit a typical calculational analysis to show the seismic wave ef fect on conduits at bends and tees.

Response

DLC submitted a response to NRC Structural Design Audit Action Item 19 in letter 2NRC-4-080, dated June 15 , 1984. At our. meeting on November 30, 1984, DLC provided the NRC Structural Engineering Section with a copy of the requested calculation for their review as an extension of

' the Structural Design Audit. It is DLC's understanding that this item will be closed upon the Structural Engineering Section's approval of this calculation.

Response

DLC submitted a . response to NRC Structural Design Audit Action Item 22 in letter 2NRC-4-047, dated April 27, 1984. At our meeting on November 30, .1984, with the NRC Structural Engineering Section, DLC summariz'ed

. the ' results of the tank wall flexibility ant. lysis for the . ref ueling water storage tank and the primary demineraii:,.ed water storage tank and provided a copy of the calculation which addresses the tank wall flexi-bility question for Structural Engineering Section review as an exten-sion of the Structural Design Audit. It is DLC's unde rs t anding that this item will be closed upon the Structural Engineering Section's approval of-this calculation.

4 a

7 SRP-3.8.5 (Audit Action Items 6 and 7)

Safety factors against sliding and overturning for the containment and-intake structures. Three component earthquake input from Item SRP 3.7.3(A) should be used in the assessment.

Response

This response supplements our response to NRC Structural Design Audit

! Action Item 6 provided in letter 2NRC-4-047, dated . April 27,1984, and

-is being provided in accordance with our November 30, 1984, meeting with the NRC Structural. Engineering Section. Based on this meeting, it is j DLC's understanding ~ that submitting this ~ response.makes this a confirma-tory item which will be closed upon NRC Structural Engineering Section approval of DLC's res ponse to Item SRP 3.7.3 (Action Items 4, 7, and 2 3) ~.

Factors of safety against sliding and overturning - that account for F three-component earthq uake input have been calculated for the contain-me nt structure (Table 6.lA). The methodology used was discussed and agreed upon at the November 30, 1984, meeting and is described below:

Maximum floor. acceleration responses were calculated in accordance with the acceptance criteria of SRP 3.7.2 (that is, the maximum structural responses due to each of the three components of earth-i quake motion should be combined by taking the square root of the sum

'~

of the squares of the maximum codirectional responses of earthquake motion at a particular point of the structure).

i From the calculated floor accelerat ions , the shear and overturning moments at the base of the containment were 'obtained by summation of

t. inertia forces.

Sliding forces were resisted by friction at the soil / mat interface.

~

Overturning was resisted.by a bearing under the foundation mat.

The calculated factors of s'afety are well above the specified allow-able values as seen in Table 6.lA.

During the November 30, 1984, meeting, the NRC Structural Section '

raised a concern -regarding the effect further consideration of Structural Design Audit Action Item 7 would have on the factors of safety for sliding and overturning. It is our judgement that, while the factors of safety may change as a result of .further considera-tion of Action Item 7, the resulting values would not fall below the- '.

specified allowables.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

I On March 13, 1979 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued an Order to Show Cause to the Duquesne Light Company. The order required shutdown of the Beaver Valley Power Station Unit I within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> after receipt of the order.

The order required all piping systems originally seismically analyzed using algebraic summation of intramodal responses to be reanalyzed using methodology currently acceptable to the NRC staff. In carrying out this reanalysis, amplified response spectra, developed using soil-structure interaction (SSI) techniques, have been used.

k Soil-structure interaction has been the subject of mtsch dialogue between the Staff, DLC, and Stone & Webster since the Order, the fundamental purpose of which was to agree on the details of the SSI methodology for use in developing suitable amplified response spectra and subsequent pipe stress analysis.

I over the course Sf numerous discussions, the NRC staff asked for documentation in a number of areas, and it is the purpose of this report to rep 1'y in detail to the NRC staff's requests.

This report describes the basis for performing soil-structure interaction analyses to develop amplified response spectra for use in reevaluating the I

.? 1.,

I

1 BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 i Id pipe stress and support loads. The soil properties are devel.4 r d from subsurface data into a soil profile, in whi:h each straum has its own soil parameterc. The required dynamic properties in each layer are described first by the small strain values of shear modulus, and then site response analysis is used to develop values of damping and shear modulus that are compatible with the strains to be expected during an earthquake. The design basis earthquake (DBE) and the operating basis earthquake (OBE) are described by ground response spectra and by artificial time histories that give response spectra enveloping the ground response spectra. The analysis of soil-structure interaction is performed by two methods: a one-step, finite element method, and a three-step, analytically based method. The report describes how these methods, including the structural representation, are derived and how

~

they are used in the present case.

I Results for different methods and for different input are compared, and thei.

application to pipe stress analysis is discussed.

I The results show that the three-step (RETUND/ FRIDAY) method gives conservative results that are consistent with the present state-of-the-art of soil-structure interaction.

2.0 SOIL PROPERTIES I The soil properties developed for use in the soil-structure interaction analyses are presented in this section of tha report. The computer program i

SHAKE developed by Schnabel, Lysmer, and Seed and discussed in Section 10.1 was used to calculate strain compatible shear moduli and damping from low l

strain values determined from field testing and empirical formulas based on laboratory test data. Although most of the data are included in reports previously submitted to the NRC for completeness, the data are summarized below.

I 2.1- SUBSURTACE DATA w ~- .

/

Subsurface information was obtained from several sources, which include the the Geotechnical Design Beaver Valley Power Station (BVPS) Unit 1 TSAR,588 Criteria for Unit 2,58' and the report on the Soil Densification Program for l

! Unit 2. "> The pre-construction borings under the Category 1 structures are located as shown in Figure 2-1. The logs for these borings are included in Appendix 2T of the Unit 1 TSAR. Two seismic cross-hole surveys were performed by Weston Geophysical Laboratory, the first in 1968 and the second in 1977, in The 1977 report conjunction with the Unit 2 Soil Densification Program.

t summarizing both cross-hole surveys is included as Appendix 10.6 of this J

report.

2.2 SOIL PROFILES I The soil beneath the plant consists of medium to dense sand and gravels that extend from the shale bedrock at El. 620 to plant grade at El. 735. The interbedded sands and gravels are alluvial deposits that occur as terraces along the Ohio River Valley. The terraces are the result of cyclic aggradation and degradation of local materials and glacial outvash by che Ohio I River drainage system during the Pleistocene Epoch. Normal groundwater at the site is at E1. 665 and closely reflects the pool elevation of the Ohio Ri'rer.

The groundwater elevation chosen for analysis is El. 675, some 10 feet higher than normal. Tigures 2-2 and 2-3 show two typical soil profiles through the

m. site area. Tigure 2-2 is an east-west profile encompassing Borings 114, 104, 103, 115, and 116; Tigure 2-3 is a north-south profile emcompassing Borings 102, 115 and 101. Included on the profiles are the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) blow counts (N) and Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) symbols for each sample.

I 2.3 SOIL PARAMETERS E

The soil underlying BVPS is granular. From the surveys and field investigations mentioned above, various soil parameters have been calculated.

USCS classifications and SPT blow counts are presented on each boring log in Appendix 2T of the Unit 1 TSAR. Values of void ratio (e), specific gravity 2-2 1

These profiles, presented in Tables 2-2 through 2-16, are based on the soil profiles discussed in Section 2.2. Small strain values of modulus and damping were developed from cross-hole seismic surveys conducted at both Units 1 and 2. Additional analyses were conducted at Gmax values of plus and minus (2) 50 percent. The results of these studies are discussed iti Section 2.4.3.

2.4.1 Small Strain Modulus and Damping i The values of small strain shear modulus and damping were based on the results of the Weston Geophysical's Survey (Appendix 10.6). The results ei the study were analyzed by Dr. R.V. Whitman and his recommandstions are included in his report in Appendix 2D to the FSAR. In summary, Dr. Whitman compared the results of the Weston survey with values of V, calculated using the Hardin and I Black relationship. As can be seen in Tigure 2-4, the results

from both methods aFree closely. The shear wave velocity profile for small strain values used in the present free-field SHAKE analysis is shown in Figure 2-6 and is basically the same as that presented by Whitman in the curve on rigure 2-5.

2.4.2 Strain Dependent Modulus and Damping The calculation of strain dependent modulus and damping profiles is discussed l

in detail in the following sections.

County (Taft S69E) earthquakes were normalized-to a peak acceleration of .125g and .06g for the DBE and OBE, respectively. These motions were input at the ground surface (El 735 feet) and deconvolved in the free field down to bedrock through the soil profile in Figure 2-6. The deconvolved time history was then amplified up through the soil profile to the base of the structure.

Iterations of shear modulus and damping with strain were performed internally by SHAKE in both the free field and under the structures. The values obtained from the final iteration were tabulated for each layer in the soil profile, and tha average values of shear modulus and damping using El Centro and Taft accelerograms as input were used in soil-structure interaction calculations.

Strain compatible shear modulus and damping values for the DBE and OBE are included in Tables 2-2 to 2-16.

2.4.2.2 Earthquake Accelerograms Two strong motion time 41 story accelerograms were used in the SHAKE analyses to determine strain compatible soil properties the 1940 El Centro earthquake I (North-South component) and the 1952 Kern County earthquake (S69E component of the Taft record). The El Centro earthquake record was chosen because it is representative of the strongest motions available from deep soil sites, whereas Taf t was chosen because of its vide frequency range and strong motion c,aract.risa cs.

The Taft S69E record, from the 1952 Kern County earthquake, has a maximum teceleration of .179g at a time of 3.70 see and a mean square frequency of 2.95 Hz. Each value of the accelerogram was multiplied by a factor of .698 to scale the record to a peak acceleration of .125g for the DBE at Beaver Valley.

A similar scaling technique was used to obtain the Taft record for the OBE.

Frequencies over 20 Hz vere excluded from the time history input at ground surface in order to allow convergence of the iterations when deconvoluting in the free field and to maintain dsconvoluted time histories with mean square frequencies close to the original Taft record in each of the layers of the soil profile. The time history at the base layer, El 620 feet in this analysis, was strored for later use in amplification analyses under each of the The peak acceleration of the Taft record at the base layer after structures.

deconvolution to El 620 feet was .0593 .

l I 1940 El Centro earthquake, North-South record, was also used in the SHAKE The analyses. The er.::imum recorded acceleration at El Centro was .349g at a time of, 2.12 sec, with a mean square frequency of 3.18 Hz. Each value of the accelerogram was multiplied by a f actor of .358 to scale the El Centro record to the Beaver Valley DBE. Frequencies above 20 Hz vere cut off the El Centro record. The peak acceleration of the El r ntro record at the base layer after deconvolution to El 620 feet was .090g.

2.4.2.3 Soil Prefile I A hori2ontally layered, ideslized soil profile was established for the SHAKE analysis based on previous studies discussed in Section 2.2. A description of the profile and relevant soil properties for each layer are included in Figures 2-2 to 2-16 for the free field case and for each structure.

The structures themselves have been represented as "pseudoscils" in the SHAKE analysis. These soils are described by unit weights and shear wave velocities that are compatible with the structure. For the equivalent unit weight, the total weight of the structure was divided by the volume of the pseudosoil layer. The shear vava velocity was computed using the equation for the first harmonic natural period of the structure, which is:

where V, = equivalent shear wave velocity for structure H : thickness of pseudoscil layer I ,

T = natural period of the structure 2-11 1

2.4.2.4 Strain Dependency Relationships E The variation of shear modulus with strain is input into SHAKE using the shear modulus factor K varying with strain. For Beaver Valley, K is an empirical factor relating shear modulus to confining stress for the underlying granular material. The shear modulus is calculated from the shear modulus factor K by the following equations:

For sands:

The decrease of shear modulus with increasing shear strain is presented in terms of K to conform with the input format required in the SHAKE program.

The strain dependency . relationships of K, plotted with shear strain, are presented in SW-AJA,"' specifically Tigure 5-2. *hese curves are based on 2-12 i

!- = = _ _=

BEAVER VALZ,EY FOWER STAT 20N, UNIT 1 I

empirical data plotted by Seed and Idriss. The factor T is calculated internally by the program, using the small strain values of shear modulus and K input into the program. This calculated valuo of T is used in subsequent iterations to compute the new shear modulus based on a K vs shear strain curve that has been shif ted from the empirical curve by the f actor T to account for site conditions as defined by Gmax.

I The increase of damping ratio for sands with increasing shear strain is based on Figure 5-9 of the Shannon and Wilson Report. This curve is based on data plotted by Seed and Idriss. The curves were modified by the use of a damping correction factor, which accounts for the variability of damping with depth:

2.4.2.5 Strain Compatible Shear Moduli and Damping E The shear moduli and damping values corresponding to the shear strain induend by the DBE snd OBE are presented in tabular form for each structura analyzed and for the free field case in Tables 2-2 through 2-16. The r,esults represent values obtained from the last iteration of snear moduli and damping. Criteriz for convergence of iterations were established at plus or minus 5 percent of the previously iterated value. The data include strain-compatible moduli and damping ratios calculated from the two earthquake accelerograms described in Section 2.4.2.2, i.e., El Centro North-South and Taft S69E. An average value was calculated for each soil layer and used to model the soil in subsequent soil-structure interaction analyses.

LJ-2.4.2.6 Variation of Shear Modulus The effect of increasing and decreasing the low strain shear moduli (G ,) by 50 percent was evaluated using SHAKE. The El Centro and Taft earthquake records, normalized for the DBE, were input at the ground surface in the free field, deconvoluted to the base layer and then amplified up through the soil to the containment structure. All soil parameters other than the low strain shear moduli remained unchanged.

The strain compatible soil properties for G plus 50 percent and G minus max max 50 percent are listed on Tables 2-13 through 2-16, for the free field and under the reactor containment, respectively. Poisson's ratio, calculated for

.these cases using small strain values and strain compatible values from the DBE and 03E, are listed on Table 2-1. Strain compatible soil properties for G are included "7 Tables 2-2 and 2-3 for the free field and containment, max respectively.

This variation was t8.4 percent at low shear strains and ranged from t46.1 to t77.8 percent of the average shear modulus at a shear strain level of 2 x 10-8 to 6 x I 10-' percent, the range of shear strain levels generated by the DBE and OBE at the site. Although the percentage variation of the average G value is higher at higher shear strain levels, the actual range of moduli values is approximately the same as at low strain levels. .

SUMMARY

ON SOIL PROPERTIES Procedures followed to obtain soil properties for the soil-structure interaction analyses and their use in developing amplified response , spectra i are summarized as follows.

l :

First, a small strain soil profile was developed from the best available soil I

data, including cross hole seismic shear wave velocity measurements, as well as data from borings and samples.

A BEAUER UAL2.EY 90WER STAZION, UNIT 1 8

F Second, the effect of an earthquake in the frei field was evaluated using the SHAKE computer program. The contro1' motion was specified at the surface of I the free field; two real records were used - El Centro and Taft - normalized to the acceleration level of the specified design earthquake COBE or DBE).

The program iterated to obtain values of shear modulus and damping compatible with the levels of strain developed during the earthquake. The average of the results from the two records was used in further analyses and is here called the strain compatible, free field profile.

I Third, the moduli and material damping for the strain compatible, free field profile were used for the RETUND/TRIDAY analyses.

Tourth, the motion at the base of the profile obtained in the SHAKE analysis of the free field was input to several profiles representing the soil column under the Category I buildings. The top layers of these profiles had masses and fundamental periods equivalent to those,of the corresponding buildings.

I The small strain values of soil shear moduli were adjusted to account for the additional static stresses imposed by the buildings. The computer program SHAKE was run to obtain strain compatible moduli and damping values for each building profile. The average of results for the two time histories l established each profile.

rifth, the strain compatible properties under each building were used in the i

finite element dynamic analyses as 3o11 properties directly under the 8 corresponding buildings. The ' strain compatible, free field soil properties were used for the elements representing the free field. Strain compatible soil properties were interpolated between these values for two columns of elements adjacent to the building.

Sixth, no further iteration on soil properties was performed in either the RETUND/ FRIDAY or the finite element analysis.

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 I C 3.0 GROUND RESPONSE E The selection of seismic design parameters has been discussed in detail in the Beaver Valley Unit i TSAR. This section discribes the smoothed ground response spectra. I 3.1 DESIGN BASIS EARTHQUAKE (DBE) AND OPERATIONAL BASIS EARTHQUAKE COBE) The design basis earthquake (DBE) for the Beaver Valley site has a peak acceleration of 0.125g at the ground surface elevation of 735 feet. This acceleration level was established by considering an intensity V to VI earthquake with peak bedrock acceleration of 0.035g amplified from bedrock i elevation '620 feet through the overlying soil to elevation 735 feet. The amplification factor is 3.5. Smoothed response spectra were than normalized to the amplified acceleration. Accordingly, the design is based on a DBE normalized to 0.125 g at the ground surface (El. 735) and for tha CBE normalized to 0.06 g at the same elevation.

Vertical accelerations are taken as two-thirds of the horizontal accelerations.

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 I o- 3.2 GROUND RESPONSE SPECTRA The ground response spectra shown in Figure 3-1 CDBE) and Figure 3-2 (OBE) are the bases for the design of all ground supported structures, equipment, and piping. The design is based on a DBE normalized to 0.125 g and for the CBE normalized to 0.06 g. Dynamic amplification factors used for these spectra are such as to give a maximum spectral acceleration of 0.45 g for two percent damping for the DBE with appropriate relative values for other amounts of damping. The spectra are flat from 2 to 5 Hz (0.2 to 0.5 see period) and reduce to an amplification ratio of unity for frequency exceeding 20 Hz. Amplified response spectra are used for the design of equipment, piping, and instrumentation supported from structures. (%), 1 . Q' 3.3 ARTITICIAL TIME NISTORY The artificial time history has a total duration of 15 seconds, with about 3.5 seconds each of rise and fall time, whose ground response spectra are lj i 5 forced to fit the specified site spectrum. An artificial accelerogram which reproduces the frequency content displayed either in a response spectrum or in lg l e a power spectral density function is simulated statistically by using a the earthquake stochastic model as described in Reference 1. In this model, f motion is considered to be a wide-band stationary process whose spectral density function, duration, and maximum acceleration are specified.

DEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 I artificial motion is generated by matching the target or site spectrum for several specified percentages of critical damping at 125 oscillator periods distributed from 0.0204 (49 Hz) to 5.0 (0.2 Hz) seconds. For a detailed treatment of the modeling procedure, see References 2 and 3. I The acceleration time history yields ground response spectra at damping values of 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 7, and 10 percent that envelop the smoothed site design ground response spectra for those damping values (see Figure 3-3, for example). 3.4 GROUND RESPONSE SPECTRA AT 3ASE OF CONTAINMENT

 /m ,

The ground response spectra at the base of the reactor containment structure were calculated and plotted using SHAKI. The artificial earthquake daveloped for the Beaver Valley site was normalized to the DBE maximum acceleration of 0.125 g and input at the ground surface of the free-field profile. The l earthquake motion was deconvoluted to the base of the profile and the computed motion at the El 681 feet, the containment founding grade, was used to compute 8 real displacement, pseudovelocity, and pseudoacceleration vs. frequency. j These s,ectra are ,1oeted for dam,ing ratios of .5, 1.0, ane 3.0 ,ercent.

Also, this procedure does not structures are produce any intermediate results, which are often useful in making engineering assessments.

An earthquake with a specified amplitude and frequency content at the site surface is not necessarily a reasonable input to the detailed model in the second step.

l 4.1.1 Trequency-Dependent Soil Stiffness E The frequency-dependent stiffnesses of a rectangular footing founded at the surface of a layered medium are computed with the program RETUND, discussed in Section 10.3. The program solves the problem of forced vibration of a rigid plate on a viscoelastic, layered stratum using numerical solutions to the I

The effects generalized problems of Cerruti and Boussinesq (see rigure 4-2). are combined by of unit harmonic horizontal and vertical point loads superposition to produce the behavior of a rectangular plate. I the problem of a point load on the surface of continuum require Solutions to the load; for an assumption about the behavior of the medium directly under example, see Timoshenko and Goodier. In REFUND, a solution directly under , I the load is achieved by employing a column of elements for which a linear displacement function is assumed. Away from this central column, in the "far-field," the solution for a viscoelastic layered medium is obtained (see rigure 4-3). n) L  % If the central column under the ' point load is removed and replaced by to the internal stresses, the equivalent distributed forces corresponding Since no other prescribed dynamic equilibrium of the far field is preserved. other forces act on the far field, the displacements at the boundary (and any I point in the far field) are uniquely defined in terms of these boundary

It is aivays possible to express the displacements in the far field in terms wave propagation in of eigenfunctions corresponding to tne natural modes of each having a characteristic wave number k. In an unbounded the stratum, 4-3 i  ;

BEAUER UALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 I N medium, any value of the wave number k, and hence any wavelength, is admissible; for a layered stratum, however, only a numerable set of values of I h (each one with a corresponding propagation mode) satisfics the boundary conditions. There are thus, at a given frequency, an infinite but numerabia set of propagation modes and wave numbers k that can be found by solving a transcendental eigenvalue problem. For each eigenfunction the distribution of stresses can be determined up to a multiplicative constant, the participation E factor of the mode. Zy combining these modal stresses to match any given distribution of stresses at the boundary, the participation factors and the corresponding dynamic stiffness function relating boundary stresses to boundary displacements can be determined.

E Eccentricity between the center of mass and center of stiffness at every level is included, except where insignificant. As a result, the effects of torsion upon the modes and frequencies is automatically determined. A typical model is shown in Figure 4-6. The generalized dynamic members connecting the centers of mass have stiffness matrices determined by tensor transformation from the matrices of the structural elements connecting the centers of stiffness. I To demonstrate the effects of torsion on the results, a comparison was made between the analyses using a generalized three-dimensional model and a planar model of the main steam valve building. This building has one open side and relatively large eccentricities between centers of mass and rigidity.

I Comparisons of ARS generated by the*three-step RETUND/TRIDAY method and the finite element PLAXLY method as well as those based on the TSAR earthquake and the Regulatory Guide 1.60 earthquakes were made at the request of.the NRC. The ARS generated for these comparisons used strain compatible soil parameters from the last iteration of the SHAKE program. I Comparisons were also made of ARS generated from the RETUND/TRIDAY programs for a variety of soil parameters as requested by the NRC. I All ARS comparisons are described in Section 5. 1 4-17 1

2. Earthquake - TSAR vs Regulatory Guide 1.60
3. Soil Farameter Variation - low strain, first and last iterations from SHAKE; 150 percent variation of low strain input to SHAKE.

   %                         5.1 RETUND/TRIDAY VS PLAXLY The, containment structure was                                            analyzed two ways for purposes of comparison using strain compatible soil parameters from the SHAKE program.
1. A one-step analysis using the finite element program PLAXLY E
2. A three-step analysis using the methodology described in Section 4.1 5

The following ebservations can be made about the ARS shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-3. l l jL 5-1 ( i 1 l

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 ) k 1. At the sat level, the results of the two methods are very close.

2. With increasing elevation, the RETUND/TRIDAY results become acre f conser"ative with respect to the PLAXLY results. This is a E consequence of the conservative assumption made about the rotational part of the input in' the kinematic interaction step (see, for example, Tigure 10.4-2).

5.2 TSAR EARTHQUAKE VS REGULATORY GUIDE 1.60 EARTHQUAKE Additional analyses were performed at the roguest of the NRC using the three-step method (RETUND/TRIDAT) to compare the design earthquake in the TSAR to 3 that specified by Regulatory Guide 1.60. The ARS shown in rigures 3-4 through 5-6 are comparisons ch consistent piping analysis bases that is, the spectra for equipment dampings associated with the Regulatory Guide 1.60 earthquake (2 and 3 percent) are displayed with the 1 percent spectra for the TSAR earthquake. The soil shear moduli and damping used for these analyses are from the last iteration of the SHAKE program. Even though the Regulatory Guide 1.60 earthquake is significantly more energetic than the TSAR earthquake, the results are very close. S lk: ,., 1 -

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 I O 5.3 VARIATION OF SOIL PROPERTIES I At the request of the NRC, ARS were generated for a range of soil shear modulus and damping ratiot

1. The low-strain soil shear modulus (Guax) with soil damping ratio equal to 0.05.
2. Shear modulus and damping after one iteration in SHAKE, starting from the low-strain modulus (Gnax).

I

3. Shear modulus and damping consistent with earthquake amplit.tde, but
    -                 calculated by the program SMAKE starting from i 1/2 times             the low-strain modulus Gmax +50 percent.

> 4 Shear modulus and damping consistent with earthquake amplitude, but calculated by SHAKE starting from 1/2 times the low-strain modulus Gmax -50 percent. I 5. Shear modulus and damping from the last itera'tion of SMAKE, starting with the low-strain modulus (Gmax). 1 . I t g 5-3 I

BEAVER VA2. LEY 70WER STATION, UNIT 1 E The ARS for cases 1, 2, and 5 are compared in rigures 5-7 through 5-16 for piping damping ratios of .005, .010, and .030. They indicate that the analysis is sensitive to extreme variations in parameters but that, within the limits of the iterations of SMAKE, both the amplitudes and frequency content i are well-behaved. E The ARS for Cases 3, 4 and 5 are shown in rigures 5-16 through 5-24 for piping damping ratios of .005, .010, and .030. Beginning the SHAKE analysis with 1/2 the low-strain modulus results in extremely low moduli for the final iteration. Again, while apparently sensitive to extreme variations of input parameters, the amplified response analysis is relatively insensitive to variations of modulus and damping in the reasonable middle range of values.

3EAVER VALLET POWER STATION, UNIT 1 E 6.0 APPLICATION OF SEISMIC INPUT TO PIPE STRESS ANALYSIS In general, seismic input to pipe. stress analysis consists of inertia loads obtained through the application of amplified response spectra, and building E seismic displacements applied appropriately at support points in accordance with the design load combinations for each piping system. 6.1 AMPLITIED RESPONSE SPECTRA Amplified rasponse spectra for pipe stress analysis are developed and peak broadened as described in Section 4 of this report. Damping values for piping systems are 0.5 percent for the CBE and 1.0 percent for the DBE. I , Ql When all support points of a piping problem are located within the same structure, the amplified response spectrum which is closest to and higher in elevation than the center of mass of the piping system is applied in the analysis. For piping routed between buildings, an enveloped response spectrum f l representing the highest aceleration for all periods is used. l l3 l1

  • i This section is included because et a request by the' Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Division of Operating Reactors, during meetings held with the '

I Stone g Webster Engineering Corporation at Bethesda, Md. on March 16 and 17, l 1979. The basis for material presented in this section is described in Section 3.1.2, entitled " Seismic Design" of Appendix B of the Beaver Valley Power Station TSAR.**8 I This section provides comparisons of ARS for the containment structure at the operating floor (Tigure 7-1) and springline (Tigure 7-2) calculated by (1) the j time history method using a maximum modal damping of 7 percent, shown by the

       , dashed line, and (2) by the time history method using modal damping but g     including radiation damping due to soil structure interaction, shown by the l l l

solid line. The analysis used to compute radiation damping is in accordance with procedures described by Whitman.'2* I Table 7-1 shows weighted modal damping values used in the time history i e analyses which were performed to calculate the ARS. These modal damping l l values were calculated in the manner suggested by Biggs and Whitman.'88 The spring connected lumped mass model (including soil springs) used in these analyses is similar to that depicted in the TSAR, Tigure B.1-1. l I 7-1 1

DEAVER UALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 I 8.0 INVESTIGATION OF THE ETTECTS OF EARTHQUAKES SMALLER THAN THE DBE Because the soil shear moduli used in the generation of ARS Jre functions of strain, the ARS are not direct linear functions of maximum ground acceleration. Therefore, it is theoretically possible that at some frequencies the ARS for some smaller earthquake exceed those of the DBE. For the purpose of this study, an average strain compatible shear modulus for a range of peak horizontal ground accelerations from 0.01 g to 0.125 g was determined using SHAKE. The analyses were conducted for the free field profile using the Taft and El Centro accelerograms and Gmax values. The average shear modulus corresponding to each peak horizontal ground

   )   acceleration was determined by first averaging the shear moduli from the last iteration of SHAKE for the two accglerograms, then calculating the average value over the full depth of soil below the containment foundation elevation.

The variation in average shear modulus versus peak horizontal ground acceleration is given in Figure 8-1. . 5 The ARS generated for a range of soil moduli provide a basis for estimating the ARS for earthquakes smaller than the DBE. For example, the DBE shear moduli for the first iteration of SHAKE are actually consistent with a smaller earthquake. The maximum ground acceleration consistent with those moduli, 1 . 8-1 1

                                                                                                   .l BEAVER VAT. LEY POWER STAT 20N, UNIT 1 1

I divided by 0.125.g yields a ratio which can be applied to the ARS resulting from analysis using the first iteration SHAKE moduli for the DBE. The resulting family of ARS at the operating floor are enveloped by the DBE spectrum, demonstrating that the effects of the DBE are not exceeded by those of smaller earthquakes (Tigure 8-2). Therefore, it can be concluded that the stresses in piping due to the DBE are not e:tceeded by those due to smaller earthquakes. I I 3

9.0 CONCLUSION

S I Based upon the data and studies in this report, the following conclusions can be drawn about thu effects of soil-structure interaction (SSI) analysis on amplified response spectra (ARS) at the Beaver Valley Power Station site. E . 9.1 USE or SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION The principles and the methodology of SSI used to develop ARS are applicable to the Beaver Valley site stad can be used with confidence to conservatively predict the seismic forces on piping systems. 4 h_,) 9.2 SOIL PROPERTIES c7 I The soil investigations made at the site to provide information for the jp7 licensing and design of Unit 1 are summarized in Section 2 of this I ~-~- report. The data from these investigations provide an adequate basis for the I- , development of strain compatible soil properties for use in the SSI analysis.

          ^

Soil shear moduli values derived from in situ measurements at the Beaver Valley site are consistent with those obtained from empirical relationships. 1 I_ 9-1 1

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 B

s. - The use of lov strain shear moduli Gmax values for soil is not appropriate in developing ARS because earthquake-induced soil strain levels are approximately 2 orders of magnitude higher than icv strain levels.

I The use of low strain shear moduli values equal to t50 percent of the Gmax to serve as a basis for developing a range of values in the strain compatible free-field soil profile is excessive. A more meaningful range would be a variation of the iterated strain compatible soil shear moduli values by ' 150 percent of the mean value. I 9.3 GROUND RESPONSE

BEAVER UALT.EY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 s 9.5 COMPARISON OF RESULTS The results of comparing the different methodologies and the FSAR earthquake with the Regulatory Guide 1.60 earthquake, and the effect of varying soil parameters lead to the following conclusions:

1. Comparison of ARS shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-3, calculated using the three-step analysis (RETUND/ FRIDAY) and ~ the one-step analysis (PLAXLY) show good agreement at all building levels with respect to frequencies at which peaks occur. The magnitudes of amplified s.-

acceleration agree reasonably well at lower levels in the structure. r At higher levels, the RETUND/TRIDAY results generally exceed the PLAXLY results. At some frequencies, the ARS calculated for the base 6C

  ' ~ ' '

mat by RETUND/ FRIDAY have amplitudes less than those obtained from PLAXLY. Since the spectral amplitudes involved are-small fractions of 1.0 g, there would be no sericus consequences in using these [ I s f+'- spectra in pipe stress analysis. Nevertheless, it is concluded that base mat spectra vill not be used in pipe stress analyses. y

3. A comparison of ARS for soil parameter variations in Figures 5-7 through 5-15 using low strain shear modulus (Gmax), first iteration SHAKE, and last iteration SHAKE soil properties shows little variation in amplitude and frequency of peaks.

I 4 Comparisons of ARS for soil parameter variations in Tigures 5-16 >I through 5-24 using strain compatible soil properties from the last iteration of SHAKE based upon (a) the low strain shear modulus (Gmax) input to SHAKE, (b) Gmax plus 50 percent input to SHAKE, and (c) Gmax 1m- minus 50 percent input to SHAKE show some variation in amplitude and frequency of the maximum response. I

5. Changes in the shear modulus of the soil change the frequencies at which the amplification function has its peaks. This shift in frequency is evident in the general shapes of the response spectra for different values of G. The exact frequencies of the specific individual peaks are influenced by the frequency content of the i

artificial earthquake, so that each individual peak appears in all spectra. However, the essential phenomenon displayed is a shift in t / 9-4 l i I

LEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 l 1 frequency of the amplification function, causing different pre-existing peaks to be selected for amplification. I

6. The results show that ARS are not sensitive to torsion in the structure.
7. Spectra calculated using the three-step method, the TSAR earthquake, I. and the strain compatible free-field soil properties are an adequate basis for analysis of piping systems when peak broadened 125 percent.

Additional conservatism was directed by the NRC in the period range I from .4 see to .55 see where amplitudes will be increased by 20 percent in accordance with their position confirmed in a letter

             ~9.9    COMPUTER PROGRAM VERITICATION The computer programs used to generate the SSI ARS have been qualified by (1) comparison of results to those obtained from similar programs which are recognized and widely used;      or (2) comparison of program results to those obtained by hand calculations or analytical results published in technical literature. These comparisons are shown for the SHAKE, PLAXLY, RETUND, KINACT,  and TRIDAY programs in Section 10 of this                  report.                      Reasonable agreement is demonstrated for these. computer programs.

 $     10.1 SHAKE E

SHAKI is a public domain computer program developed at the University of California and described by Schnabel, Lysmer, and Seed. Stone 8 Webster has made a few changes in the program, principally the addition of plotter capability and improvement of some of the output, but the pr.ogram in use for this work is essentially that described by Schnabel, et al. , The program solves the problem of vertically propagating shear waves in a layered medium. The values of shear modulus and damping for a particular layer depend on the average shear strain induced in that layer by the earthquake. The program iterates to obtain values of modulus and damping that are compatible with the strains and with curves of modulus and damping versus strain. l Although the program is well known and widely used, Stone 8 Webster has checked the results computed by the program against those developed l independently by Roesset'88 and has also checked that the calculations of modulus and damping are internally consistent. For example, Tigure 10.1-1 l l shows the comparison of the amplification functions from SHAKE and Roesset's analysis for the first iteration on the soil profile in Tigure 10.1-2. I L 10.1-1 i

The equations of motion are solved in the frequency domain. A primary element in the PLAXLY solution is the consistent transmitting boundary modeling the layered far-field. This boundary avoids the unrealistic reflections associated with more simplistic " free" or " roller" lateral boundary conditions. , The principal limitations upon the program and its application are the following: I 1. Geometry and material properties must be such that they can be satisf actorily modeled in two dimensions. l t l 2. Properties of the layered f ar-field cannot change horizontally. I 3. Base rock is assumed to be infinitely stiff. I Material properties are isotropic linearly elastic. 4 l 10.2-1 i

I 3EAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 1 i I 10.3 RETUND AND EMBED I The computer program RETUND is used for computation of the dynamic stiffness functions (impedance functions) of a rigid, massless, rectangular plate velded to the surface of a viscoelastic, layered stratus. The subgrade stiffness matrix is evaluated f'or all six degrees of freedom for the range of 4 frequencies specified by the user. Embedmont effects are applied subsequently by the program EMBED. 1 The program reads the topology and material properties, assembles the subgrade flexibility matriz, and determines the foundation impedances by inversion. The subgrade flexibility matrix is determined with discrete solutions, to the I(()p' problems of Cerruti and Boussinesq. A cylindrical column of linear elements is joined to a consistent transmitting boundary, and the flexibility coefficients found by applying unit horizontal and vertical loads at the axis. The rectangular plate is discretized into a number of nodal points, and the global flexibility attrix found using the technique just described. The ' foundation stiffnesses are then dethrained solving a set of linear, equations ' which result from imposing unit rigid body translations and rotations to the lI plate. .I

I 3EAVER VALLET POWER STATION, UNIT 1 [ 10.4 KINACT I . KINACT is a computer program used in the three-step solution of soil-structure interaction problems. Briefly, the program modifies the specified 4 translational time history at the surface to translational and rotational time histories at the base of a rigid, massless foundation. I The theoretical basis for the program is derived from wave propagation theory and parametric studies of finite element solutions, described in more detail in Section 4.1.3. Comparisor.s of the spectra of translational and rotational motion predicted by KINACT and by PLAXLT are shown in Tigures 10.4-1 and

      ..       10.4-2.

b,}} . As the figures indicate, KINACT slightly underestimates the translational part

             -  of the motion, but significantly overstates the rotational part.             This condition results from the dependence of the two variables Uand4 I                           $ = C (hE Un)'                                               ~~

I BEAVER VALLEY PO'JER STA!!0N, UNIT 1 I f 10.5 TRIDAT The computer program TRIDAY is used for dynamic analysis of structures subjected to seismic loads, accounting for soil-structure interaction by means of frequency-dependent complex soil springs. I The structure is idealized as a set of lumped masses connected by springs or , linear members, and attached to a common support, the mat. The latter is supported by soil springs or impedances, which may or may not be frequency-dependent. Alternatively, the mat may rest on a rigid subgrade. The structure may be three-dimensional, but cannot be interconnected; each structure has to be simply connected. Tourier transform techniques are used to determine time histories; cutoff frequency is prescribed internally to 15 Hz. l 1 The theoretical basis and implementation of the program is described in l Section 4.1.4. A comparison of TRIDAY with a public domain program, STARDYNT., for the seismic response of a fixed base, multi-mass, cantilever model is

         -   shown in Figure 10.5-1.              The model is shown in rigure 10.5-2.

I. I LOCATION The area of investigation (Sheet 1) is on a high-level

     ~

terrace on the south bank ~of the Ohio River (former elevation 735 feet) approximately 25 miles northwest of Pittsburgh. I' Sheet 1 is a section of the Hookstown, Pennsylvania and Midland, Pennsylvania, United States Geological Survey topographic quadrangle maps (1:24,000). The seven boreholes

       ~             used for the in-situ velocity measurements are shown on Sheet 2, which was prepared from a map provided by Stone &

I_ webster. IN-SITU VELOCITY MEASUREMENTS - CROSS-HOLE PROCEDURE ,, Cross-hole velocity measurements are made using geophones

          -,          containing three orthogonal elements (one vertical and two
               ?

horizontal). Recordings are obtained using a 12- to 16-I_ channel seismograph that contained a two-millisecond timing system. Seismic energy is generated with the energy source I;[, in one hole and detected in the geophone holes with the seismic source and the geophones at the same elevation levels. The energy source (s) for this survey included both . small explosive charges and an air gun. The "P" wave and "S" wave velocity data were ob(ained

c. at 5-foot intervals within the. densified zone and at 10-foot I intervals above and below the zone.

e RESULTS { , Generalized results of the survey are presented in Table 1, which also lists the results of a previous Weston . survey (in this general vicinity) reported to Stone &

    --         Webster in 1968. Table 2 lists the specific velocity values measured at each elevation for the present survey and the corresponding elastic moduli values. The various combinations of shothole and recording (detector) holes that were used              ,

i i C i ara also noted on Table 2. The densified zone occurs generally between Elevations 670 and 640. It is interesting to note that complete saturation, I. as evidenced by seismic velocities of about 5,000 ft/see or  : greater, does not occur above Elevation 652, although the

  '             water table elevation has been observed by geotechnical g> ,
         -      personnel in the field at Elevation 667. This apparent dist--epancy can be explained by the possible injection of small amounts of air into the surrounding sediments during the densification process, (a minute percentage of air in an

( otherwise fully saturated layer can lower the seismic velocity value significantly). 9

        -             No anomalous conditions, other than that mentioned ?
               above, were observed during the cross-hole study.
