2. Description of Potential Observation: (continuation)
a. The number of elements through the thickness of the basemat is only 3. This may not provide sufficiently accurate element L~ stresses to obtain appropriate bending moments in the mat.

t

b. The method used to calculate the bending moments from the element stresses as given in calculation 621-15(Q)(sheets 1&2) may not.

provide acceptable values as it does not account for the correct location of the stress in the element.

. c. The plan size of elements is very large considering the variation of the bending moment'in the mat. The limited number of element stresses may not provide an accurate moment distribution.

d. The overturning moments for each wall system, calculated in pages 7-17 of Calculation No. 621-8 (Q) result in a net vertical load. The net load due to overturning moment should be zero.

The calculation of the nodal forces does not account for the nodal tributary areas (i.e., nodal forces are the same and do

not vary with the nodal tributary area) .

2. Description of Observation: (continuation)

Section 3.1.that design pressures are listed in both DPC line index and General Electric process diagrams. This implies that either of these documents is appropriate for use as design input. However, review of the line index and process diagrams shows reference to the following terminology only:

Line Index 10855-P-0501, Revision 17,for line number 1FD-DBA-001, HPCI steam from main steam line C: Design Rating: 1,209; Normal: 1,120; Max: 1,330.

General Electric Process Diagram 761E270AC, Revision 4, Design Conditions Table lists the following: Peak Pressure:

1,330; Normal Maximum Pressure: 1,120.

Since the term " Operating Pressure" is not used in those documents, the design specification requirement may not be consistently met.

Also, there appears to be no BPC document that requires " maximum" g

line index pressure values to be used for " Operating Pressure,"

a procedure that BPC verbally stated is the practice.

4. Recore. ;ndation for resolution (optional):
b. Provide the basis for selection of pressure values used in establishing the loading conditions required by the Design

. . . Speci fication .

c. Provide
  • assurance that the basis has been used for the selection of pressure values throughout the piping design for the proj ect.

1. Structure (s), system (s), or component (s) involved:

Reactor building basemat - Drawing C-0483-1, Rev. 8 Detail- 3

2. Description of Observation:

The drawing indicates that the horizontal reinforcing bar scacing used in the reactor building basemat can be 26" on center. This would exceed the ACI 318-71 code maximum spacing of 18" on conter as required by Section 7.4.3. (continued on next page)

3. Significance of observation:

The maximum horizontal and shear bar spacing used in the reactor building basemat may violate the requirements of ACI 318-71, Section 7. 4. 3 and 17.6.1, respectively.

4. Recommendation for resolution (optional):

A. Justify why the horizontal and shear rebar spacing deviate from the ACI code.

B. Update FSAR to document this exception. (continued on next pg.)

5. Internal Review Committee classification of Observation:

._ Not significant to safety (See Item 6)

Additional information required (See Item 6)

2. Description of Observation: (continuation) i that the vertical member is braced out-of-plane at the vertical location of the middle tray of a 3-level tray hanger. This location corresponds to the ,

normal location of the longitudinal brace. While this may be a valid assumption, it does not appear to recognize that sheet 3.20.23 of drawing E-1406-0 allows the location of the longitudinal brace at any point between the location of the middle tray and the bottom of the vertical member. This could potentially increase out-of-plano unbraced length of the vertical member by 25 inches, which could result in the vertical member exceeding AISI allowable stresses.

B. The added stresses due to the self weight and self weight seismic excitation of the hanger does not appear to be addressed in calculation 677-3 (0).

C. Drawing E-1406-0, sheet 3.24.03 appears to soecify a 7'-0" maximum dimension from the top of the support to the top tray level. Calculation 677-3 (0) appears to evaluate this dimonsion as 6'-0" maximum.

D. The + 2" horizontal and vertical location tolerance for the cable tray given in note 3.11, drawing E-1406-0, and the

+ 1'-0" vertical dimension tolerance for the distance from tho top of th6 hangor to tho top of the tray level doos not appear to have been addressed in calculation 677-3 (0),

which could result in the horizontal and vertical members excooding the AISI allowable stresses.

3. Significance of Observation: (continuation)

D. The possible addod stresses due to self weight and self weight seismic excitation of the hanger do not appear to be addressed in the calculations.

C. There appears to be a conflict betwoon the design drawing and the calculations.

D. Tho calculations do not appear to address the specified tolcrances.

Based on those four items, the design adoquacy of the Type 03 cable tray support cannot be verified.

4. Rocommandation for resolution (optional) : (continuation)

H. Assoas if the effects above occur on any other cable tray support types and assure that the supports are within their allowable stressos requirod by the PGAR.

2. Description of Observation: (continuation) the seismic test procedure, which referenced a superseded material requisition, was authorized to be used by Bechtel. Patel Engineers' '

Test Procedure for seismic qualification of 480VAC Motor Control Centers, PEl-TR-833504-1, Rev. A, referenced Bechtel Material Requisition 10855-E-ll8(Q), Rev. 17. Bechtel reviewed the test procedure, Rev. A and granted Patel Engineers permission to proceed l on March 1, 1984. This material requisition was superseded on October 5, 1983 by Rev. 18, which changed substantially all of the required spectra. Thus the test that was approved was based on

. outdated information.

3. Significance of Observation: (continuation)

Engineers did obtain the appropriate response spectra. However, it appears that the appropriate response spectra was transmitted to Patel Engineers by means other than revision of the material requisition.

4. Recommendation for resolution: (continuation) has sufficient controls to insure that equipnent is qualified

~

to current requirements.

b. Describe the BPC method for transmitting revised requirements for material requisitions to manufacturer and subcontractor and assure that the process has been used for other material requisitions.

' " Calculations shall be completed, in accordance with this procedure,.

prior to using calculation results for input to other committed or

-final calculations, issuing drawings for construction, issuing

- equipment specifications, or issuing other documents for use out-side project engineering."

There is an apparent failure to meet design requirement in that:

, a. BPC Drawing P-3001-1, Rev. O, dated 5/10/76, for the mechanical penetration flued heads was issued for fabrication prior to the BTI Analysis Report (reference c) supporting the design.

~

b. The BTI Analysis Report is not signed off by the preparer, checker, or approved and is stamped as being preliminary.
c. BPC initially did not provide calculations supporting the i faulted condition loads shown on Drawing P-3001-1, Rev. O.

In response to an S&L question, BPC generated Calculation SC27-1 Rev. O, on 4/16/85, to demonstrate to S&L the basis and j adequacy of the faulted loads; however, this does not provide assurance that an approved calculation was completed before the issuance of P-3001-1, Rev. O.

2. Description of Observations (continuation)

FSAR Section 1.8.1.61 states "!! CGS complies with Regulatory Guide 1.61."

FSAR Section 3.10.2.3.1 states "The damping values are in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.61 and IEEE-344-1975 for electrical equip-ment and instrumentation.

Regulatory Guido 1.61 specifies the damping values to be considered in the analysis of Soismic Category 1 Equipment as: OBE-2%

SSE-3%

except (por Noto 2) in the dynamic analysis of active co'ponents m

where the damping for SSE should be 2%.

FSAR Tables 3.7-1 and 3.7-2 define the damping values used for analysis of NSSS and Non-NSSS equipment as: OBE-2%

SSE-3%

but do not addross the NRC requirement which specifies that for SSE, 2% damping is to be used in the dynamic analysis of Seismic Category 1 Activo Equipment. A review of the two subject equip-mont qualification reports shows that 3% damping was used for the SSE which is contrary to the Regulatory Guido 1.61 requirements for activo equipment. ,

4. Recommendation for Rosolution (optional) : (continuation)
b. DPC should justify the 3% damping values for SSE defined in FSAR Table s 3.7-1 and 3.7-2 in lieu of the 2% damping required by Rogula ory Guido 1.61 for the analysis of Scismic Category 1 Activo Equipment.

2. Description of Observation: (continuation) resolved in the evaluation of the test program presented in Calculation 677-156 (Q) :
a. The justification for the sampling program (sample si=e and conduit supplier) appears not to have been provided.
b. Per Calculation 677-38 (Q), pages 366 through 368, the span length for 2" conduit is controlled by the yield strength of the conduit material. However, the test program and evaluation do not appear to address 2" conduits.
c. In Calculation 677-38 (Q) , page 3'61, the allowable span length of conduit was reduced by 10% for all conduits except for 3/4" and 1" in the upper elevations of the Reactor, D/G and Control Buildings. This margin serves as the basis in Calculation 677-38 (Q) , page 361, for justifying the lower yield stresd obtained in the test program. Since this margin was not provided in the 3/4" and 1" conduits in these buildings, no justification exists for the test program lower yield stress for these sizes.
4. Recommendation for, Resolution (optional) : (continuation)
c. Provide justification for using results of conduit test program for 3/4" and 1" conduits.

2. Description of Observation: (continuation) to rotate a full 90 0 when energized due to a bolt becoming loose and being wedged'between the piston and the spring end retainer (Wyle Report 46863-2, page 24, Anomaly No. 6). Testing was aborted, the loose bolt reinstalled, valve was modified by adding two set screws to secure the bolt. Testing was resumed. There is an apparent failure to meet the valve operability requirements.
a. Prudent industry practice dictates that in demonstrating the qualification of a component by testing, credit cannot be taken for qualification testing performed prior toarfailure.

In this valve qualification test, credit was taken for the OBE sine sweep testing performed prior to the failure, without providing any justification.

b. There is no objective evidence that the valve actuators supplied to Hope Creek have been similarly modified.
4. Recommendation for Resolution (optional) : (continuation)
b. Bechtel should provide assurance that the valves supplied to Hope Creek have been or will be modified, so that they are similar to the test specimen.
c. Bechtel should provide assurance that their Seismic Qualification Program has sufficient controls to assure that modifications necessitated by the qualification process are incorporated into the set of components represented in a qualification test.
d. Bechtel should provide assurance that their Seismic Qualification Proaram does not allow credit to be taken for qualification testing prior to a failure.

2. Description of Potential Observation: (continuation) the design specification to define the boundaries. Both design specifications state that code classifications are shown on piping class sheets (PCS) and piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&ID) and that boundaries are provided on the P&ID's. 1
a. For Class 1 instrument piping (tubing) downstream of excess-flow-check-valves (EFCV), the design specification appears to conflict with the P&ID requirements.
b. For all other instrument tubing, the P&ID does not appear to have or reference classification requirements.

Following are examples of the P&ID regarding instrument line code classification and boundary requirements.

1. Class 1 Instrument Piping (Tubing) Downstream of EFCV's M-067, Section 5.3 states that instrument piping has the same code classification as the associated nuclear service piping. This implies that all instrumentation piping and tubing from the process piping to the instrument is ASME, Class 1. However, P&ID (M-55-1 for HPCI) shows a class

(. , change downstream of excess-flow-check-valves (EFCV) i.e.

l~ "CCA" to " tubing'." There is no definition of " tubing" on M-55-1. Bechtel P&ID Legend M-00-0, Sheet 2, Rev. 6, Note 17, refers to Drawing 10855-J-G1010 for instrument l- tubing rating, material, and code for tubing used down-stream of excess-flow-check-valves. Drawing 10855-J-G1010-3, 4

Rev. 4, (12/13/84), shows Class 2 downstream of EFCV with Class 1 piping from the process pipe. This does not appear to be consistent with the design specification.

2 .- Other Instrument Sensing Lines The Bechtel P&ID does not show any identification for instrument sensing lines for other applications. No note or reference " tubing" is made. A line is shown between i the process pipe and instrument symbol. No information, code class, or boundaries is included. No reference to J-G-1010 appears to be made. Therefore, the P&ID does

l 2. Description of Observation: (continuation)

! There is an apparent error in the model used to compute the moment of inertia for the valve yoke. Page 2 of BIF report N50871 defines j a composite moment of inertia for the valve yoke treating it as a single member. Since the yoke consists of two independent members l (legs), this model may be inappropriate and may yield unconservative ,

j results.

! 4. Recommendation for resolution (optional) : (continuation) l b. BPC should identify if this method was used to calculate the yoke section properties of other valves and if so, assure that j this approach does not adversely affect the valve qualifications.

1. Structure (s), system (s), or component (s) involved:
  • HPCI System FSAR Section 6. 3. 2. 2.1, page 6. 3-13
2. Description of Observation:

FSAR Sectio; 6.3.2.2.1 states: " Start .up of the HPCI System is completely independent of ac power." However, the ECCS jockey pump is ac powered as indicated on drawing E-6431-0, Sheet 1, Rev. 2, and appears to contradict this statement.

3. Significance of Observation:

Without additional justification it cannot be determined that the start-up of the HPCI System is completely independent of ac power and, if not, what the potential consequences may be.

4. Recommendation for reso'lution (optional):

BPC is to provide justification for the ac powered ECCS jockey pump, assessing the effects of a momentary or extended loss of ac power on operation of the HPCI system.

2. Description of Observation: (continuation)

FSAR Section 1.8.1.61 states "HCGS complies with Regulatory Guide 1.61."  :

FSAR Section 3.10.2.3.1 states "The damping values are in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.61 and IEEE-344-1975 for electrical equip-ment and instrumentation.

i Regulatory Guide 1.61 specifies the damping values to be considered in the analysis of Seismic Category 1 Equipment as: OBE-2%

SSE-3%

except (per Note 2) in the dynamic analysis of active components where the damping for SSE should be 2%.

FSAR Tables 3.7-1 and 3.7-2 define the damping values used for analysis of NSSS and Non-NSSS equipment as: OBE-2% ,

. SSE-3%

but do not address the NRC requirement which specifies that for SSE, 2% damping is to be used in the dynamic analysis of Seismic Category 1 Active Equipment. A review of the two subject equip-l ment qualification reports shows that 3% damping was used for the SSE which is contra'ry to the Regulatory Guide 1,61 requirements for active equipment.

4. Recommendation for Resolution (optional)' : (continuation)

] b. BPC should justify the 3% damping values for SSE defined in FSAR Tables 3.7-1 and 3.7-2 in lieu of the 2% damping required

by Regulatory Guide 1.61 for the analysis of Seismic Category 1 i Active. Equipment.

R c. Revise the FSAR ,to be consistent with a. or b. above.

2. Description of Observation: (continuation)

(ASME-III) does not apply to non-in-line instrumentation. Likewise, Bechtel Design Guide J2.8.2.4 (referenced in Note 17 of M-00, P&ID),

Section 3.1, states that ASME does not apply, as stated in ASME-III, NA-1130.

Design Specification M-067, Section 6.1.3, indicates the design to include all pressure containing appurtenances such as pressure 4

sensors.

If ASME Section III does not apply to instrumentation, then the design specification should be revised accordingly.

4. Recommendation for Resolution (optional) : (continuation)
b. Bechtel should verify that the incorrect information in Design Specification M-067 has not been implemented in the instru-i mentation design.
c. Bechtel should identify the failure in the design process which -

resulted in this observation and how it will be corrected.

2. Description of Observation: (continuation) 10CPR50.49, Paragraph e.5, states that " Equipment qualified by test must be preconditioned by natural or artificial (accelerated) aging to its end-of-installed life condition. Consideration must be given to all significant types of degradation which can have effect on the functional capability of the device."

In order to determine the qualified life, degradation from thermal aging must be considered. This must include:

- normal, abnormal, and accident temperature profiles associated with the areas where the devices are installed.

- temperature rise due to coil energization, and

- the duration of the energized state In determining the qualified life of the subject valves, the environmental qualification report does not consider the temperature rise due to the energized state of the solenoid valves (e.g., coils).

2. Description of Observation: (continuation)
a. The P&ID shows the square root extractor FY-K601 as located on panel C650, GE Elementary Diagram 791E420AC shows FY-K601 as located on panel Hil-P620, the correct location for FY-K601 is Hil-P620. The P&ID M-55-1 should be revised.
b. The GE Elementary Diagram shows flow transmitter FT-N008 connected to square root converter FY-K601, then connected to controller cards E41-K600-1 through 4 then connected to E41-R600-1 flow indicator. The P&ID shows flow transmitter l,

FT-N008 connected to square root converter FY-K601 then connected to flow indicating controller FIC-R600. The BPC P&ID and instrument index does not show controller cards E41-K600-1 through 4, or flow indicator E41-R600-1. The BPC design documents do show FIC-K600 for the abovo instruments.

BPC apparently does not identify instruments that they do not l have to buy or install. FIC-K600 is BPC designation for the controller instruments shown on the GE Elementary Diagram.

l 3. Significance of Observations (continuation) ,

b. The discrepancies betwoon the BPC documents and the GE documents, could causo discrepancies in testing and calibration.
c. Without a complete and consistent devico designation system, device identification for equipment qualification can bo I incomplete and erroneous.
4. Recommendation for Resolution (optional) : (continuation)
b. BPC should provido assuranco that the discrepant information was not implomanted in the design,
c. BPC should provido an explanation of the " system" utilized to number instrument typo devices and an explanation of how the system moots the requirements including device testing and t

calibration, qualification tasting, and intordisciplino design.
