       'o        'l              ,MR.         BURWELL: Good morning.                My name is 2  Spottswood Burwell.            -I'm  with the NRC and we are                      !

  ; /:            3  nere ~this morning to review-a portion of the 4 , applicant's motion for summary disposition on the 5  upper-lateral restraint.              I believe'we have met on
6 this particular-item a number of times before and I
                '7   will not attempt._to summarize those meetings.

18 The purpose of this meeting this morning 9 'i s to provide an opportunity for our consultants at 10 . Brook Haven National Laboratory to examine the

            .11      structural design of the walls supporting.the upper

.g^ 12 lateral restraint. Do I need to say more, Morris? & 13 MR. REICH: No, I think.that's okay unless 14 JP. T . wanted to say something.else. 15- MR.-KUO: No. Whatever statement you 1G would like to-make.

             '17                 MR.- REICH: Pertaining I think to the last
             -18     meeting or should we start a new meeting?
            .19                  MR. KUO: I believe this meeting has
            -20      nothing to do with the previous meeting.                          Like Spot

(^T! 21 :just mentioned, the purpose of this meeting is to

t 22 review part of the design calculations on the 23 reactor cavity wall which supports the upper lateral
s. 24 restraint. I think that's the only purpose for us 25 to be here. If'anybody else has anything to add,

7 4 but'that's'the way I understand it. ]} l

2 MR. REICH: Fine. In that case, let us go

' j3 3 andLtalk about the design calculations of the beams, V 4 of the lateral support-beams. First let's talk 5 Laboutsthe_ upper lateral support. As you remember,

            -6  we talked: to you last time about.the worst case 7  scenario, and if I recall correctly, the worst case 8  scenario _was a main steam line break with a-9  temperature rise of approximately 355 degrees 10   calculated 1with the RELAP codes if I'm not mistaken
          'l l  and we will take that temperature as the correct
  ,s       12   temperature instead.of the design temperature of, p ry I   13  -let's_say, 370.

14 Under that condition, could you people go 15 over_with us exactly the pedestal design, the wall

          -16   design, and all the things you considered, how the 17   walls move and the safety of the beam and the walls.

18 We would like to review that with you because first 19 of all, we didn't_have the exact drawings, we

          ~20  .couldn't make heads or tails of exactly what
          '21   pedestal sizes are, how the anchors are and so forth.

Q' ' ' 122 I-see you have some of these here. We would like 23 you to discuss these. We had some that he sent that Si/ 24 but not everything, not all the details. We would 25 like to go.over it with you.

                     .               .       . ._-           4       _. -       . _ . .          . .              .- .-      .     .   .. . ~ .          _.~
    ,          +                    ::-

e M # 5 i . il MR. KUO: In addition we would also-like -- r 2 to have you tell us the missing rebar issue 3;J 3 identified by the TRT, where.the locations are and-

 >      -L J     ~

4 Lthe numbers of those missing rebars. lWe would like 35 toimake an assessment-of the impact'of those missing 6 'r'e b a r on.the conclusions that'our consultant makes 7 about the upper. lateral restraint.

                                   -8                                     MR. REICH: There's one more item I would-i                                 9               like'to sort of; verify today.and have it-down on the 10                . record:and see.ifI'm-correct.                                        When I asked-last
                              - 1' 1               week about calculations regarding the lower lateral
      ,      .y                  12                cupport,        'I. .wa s told that none are available.                                      These 1 (-f~

M- .14 want to verify or make-sure it's on the record, l' f 15 that's the case. Maybe I didn't understand it right. I16' MR. KENKRE: The lower level restraint [17 beam has been designed by Westinghouse. It has not

18 "been. designed by Gibbs & Hill and it is true-that we '

l' 9 d 'o . n o t' have those calculations for.the beam.

                              ?20                                         MR. MILLER: Have you put those loads i nto 121'                 - the concrete walls?
22 M R .- KENKRE: Yes. The embedments of.the

[23 lower lateral beam is in Gibbs & Hill scope and we lLk 2 -24 do have calculations for those embedment design. , 25 MR. EICHLER: May I make a suggestion. I m 4 O + g--,-- w -

                    - 18                 MR. KENKRE: What I would do is take them 19   through the~ physical description.
                    ;  20                MR. BURWELL: Anil, could I ask you to be v
     ,-g               21   careful to identify things like compartment numbers aJ 22   and the wall, the purpose of the wall and so on so 23   we can get some, so that the record will be meaningful

              -5    t o' say that I spoke to Anil a few times last week 6   and'I received from him eight drawings thus far.

7 MR. KENKRE: Not nine? 8 MR. REICH: I think it's eight but'I'll 9 check the. number. Several drawings came in the day 10 before-and I left the office and I haven't been back 11 so it could be nine.. I.was told there were_two,

   ,,        12    .maybe three.              However, a lot of them are included.

KENKRE: What I've got.here on the 18 wall are some of the drawings which will help 19 explain the geometry. They are not all of the 20 -drawings.

                  - 11              MR. BURWELL: Could I ask for a 12 clarification, please?      You said that there was a f       i
    \#              13 wall between steam generator compartments two-and 14 three and between steam generator compartments four 15 and one. Is'that correct?

16 oM R . KENKRE: Yes. 17 MR. BUHWELL: Is this all the way up and 18 down? 4 19 MR. KENKRE: This wall, what you see here 20 is an opening, a local opening, but this wall goes 21 all the way up and we will show that as we come to [v . 22 the next plan. ( 23 MR. BURWELL: Fine.

Looking at the J,a3 21 first sketch that you made and looking at the figure V 22 0553, that floor that you indicate, 861'6" really 23 shows a half floor, and elevation eight, I believe i 24 '73 or 75, shows a full floor.

          . 5                             MR. MILLER: Something I would like to see 6                 and maybe you have to get some more drawings for it 7                 are details of the support between the lateral beam 8                 and.the vertical walls.                      In particular I'm 9                 interested in the details that will be required to 10                  make someLestimate of punching shear response.

11 MR. KENKRE: This is one of the drawings

  ',f w e      12                  which is 0550 and this area here gives the detail of id  '

13 the upper lateral beam. Section 14-14 gives the 14 cross-section of the steam beam. Section 13-13 15 shows the end base plate which is connected to the 16 concrete wall- by bolts. 17 MR. BURWELL: Could you give me a height 18 and width of that beam approximately? Is it on the 19 drawing? 20 MR. KENKRE: Yes. The height is 3'6" (~} 21 inches and the width is 3 feet. It is a box beam. ws 22 MR. COSTANTINO: Could I ask you again a 23 geometry question. The upper lateral restraint beam Am .) 24 has a cross-sectional area of-about 357 square 25 inches and the lower lateral restraint beam has a

23

.         1 cross-sectional area of 8 square inches.            Is that 2 true?

3 MR. KENKRE: Yes, that's true. (s)

4 MR. COSTANTINO: Why the big difference in 5 the size of the members?

         '6              MR. KENKRE: We have not seen Westinghouse'        s 7 calculations on their beam.         This beam, upper 8 lateral beam is designed by Gibbs & Hill with loads 9 provided to us by Westinghouse.

10 MR. REICH: What loads? All loads? 11 MR. COSTANTINO: Does Westinghouse take 73 12 the main steam line break temperature in their 'Q). 13 analysis also? 14 MR. KENKRE: We don't know. 15 MR. R E I C il: They just -- 16 MR. COSTANTINO: If you make an 17 approximate number, the upper lateral restraint beam 18 was just barely qualified for the high temperature 19 and you get, and the lower lateral restraint beam is 20 also longer, r%- 21 MR. REICH: You have to qualify what you

- (J 22  just-said. You made a very conservative approximate 23  number.

8 MR. KENKRE: If you look at the 9 cross-section, we will find that the diaphragm, that 10 the slabs are very close to that and the punching 11 cone would probably intercept the floor. r-~ 12 MR. MILLER: That's the kind of detail I'm k)3 '

                 ~16    side of.the wall. Let me explain about this bolt.

16 MR. REICH: Essentially what-you are doing 1 7. is putting-in the analysis that you just spoke about, 18 In other words, you made a thick cylinder approach. 19 Mk. EICHLER: The load in that area, 20 instead.of being assumed to travel or will be 21 assumed to travel vertical to the reinforced [) 22 portions of the cylinder; that is, that portion 23 above where half the missing rebar was placed in the J24 next pour. 25 MR.

7 Either it works for that analysis or it doesn't work. 8 Your implication was it worked for that analysis. 9 MR. MC GRANE: I'm going to make the 10 assumption that it doesn't work in that they are 11 going to see if they can carry the-load or they are

13 even if it didn't work, you can carry the load from 14 here vertically up to the ring above there. 15 MR. COSTANTINO: Before you get to the 16 what if,-does it work for carrying the internal 17 pressure? No internal rebar. 18 MR. MC GRANE: No rebar across the crack 19 or slot. 20 MR. MILLER: If you onlyfhave 40 PSI (N -21 internal pressure, it sounds like you can't have

    \-)

22 stresses bigger than 40 PSI, PR over T. R is about 23 equal to T. Maybe you have 80 PSI tensile stress. k) 24 That would cause the concrete to crack. 25 MR. COSTANTINO: T is eight feet? L- - - -

G MR.-KENKRE: First by looking at the 7 geometry, first of all, the thrust on both walls 8 were identical. One of the wall had diaphragm 9 immediately beyond, behind the bed so that was not a 10 critical because it could never punch through that 11 area. The other side wall did not have the

 .f ew            l' 2 diaphragm.   .That's how we concluded that should be 13   the-critical'one as far as the area is concerned and 14   we had picked the maximum thrust which was as a 15   result of main-steam-break.

H 16 MR. COSTANTINO: Is punching shear'the 17 only-item you looked at? 18 MR. KENKRE: No. We looked at diagonal 19 tension shear also and those we looked at a distance 20 D from the supports and load point and there we took 7T 21 the value from the NASTRAN code. L) 22 MR.

                   -17         than the one derived 1from the HEATING 5 code?

18- MR. KENKRE: No. I think we had used 220 19 as the differential temperature. The one that we

                    ~2 0       got after the HEATING S code was done is I think 282 r

KENKRE: That's why I will need that

                 ~ 10 document which will show that figure 210.

18 MR. COSTANTINO: 285 and 355 are both main

                 . 19 steam break. 285 is differential temperature and 20   add to that 70, the ambient, gives you the 355, (Gj           21 which is the main steam break temperature, is that 22  right, and the LOCA temperature is 220 plus 70 which 23  is 290 which is the absolute temperature.                            You are
  <--              24  saying there's maybe a 210 instead of a 220?

3 MR. COSTANTINO: A LOCA which is 220 4 differential and a main steam is 285 differential. 5 .MR. REICH: In the letter that we have r 6 . here,.it says the upper beam temperature will be 282 7 F, the lower one 289. That's for LOCA. At 216 8 seconds, it is 282 degrees Fahrenheit at the upper 9 beam and 209 degrees Fahrenheit at the lower beam 10 - and' finally at the main steam peak temperatures at 11 324 seconds, you have 370 degrees Fahrenheit but l) y 12 there Iotti told us at the last meeting that they

            ~

13 had calculated-this with the codes mentioned 14 previously and they found.out that, they concluded 15 that there were.355 degrees Fahrenheit, not 370 16 Fahrenheit. 17 MR. EICHLER: For the purposes of 18 discussing this calculation, let me speak of main 19 steam and LOCA. The two should not be used in the 20 same context with respect to this. In hearings at 7.~ 1_)y 21 that time, the allegations were with respect to LOCA, 22 LOCA effects, LOCA temperatures, and LOCA and 23 nothing but LOCA, and until the time that the court

      .\ .        24      order December 28,                 '83,   came out, no one had 25      discussed main steam. Main steam was not an issue.

                 ;4   or_220,'the best . point that could be made there, .

5 EchancesEare that we used the more conservative 6 .rather.than d'iminished to be less conservative 7 . differentia 1' temperature, the actua'l beam growth, so 8 if anything, we overstated the effects. 9 Main steam came about only subsequent and 10 during the-NASTRAN analysis where, because'you have-L1- corta.in physical realities, upper beam, lower 12 oeam.

               .15   one case, but it's obvious, and if we didn't raise 16    it, somebody;else-might, therefore~we raised it.

17 The main steam had to be looked at. liigher

              -e   the hearing which were rejected.      Am I correct?

9 MR. EICHLER: Can we go off the record, 10 please. 11 (Discussion off the record.) yy 12 MR. MILLER: After reviewing-the steel

13 that.was Icft out in.the lower portion of the

           <19     in the capability of the upper lateral restraint 20     beam to pcrform its function.

         . 5    :all,.we are taking a calculation number SRB-167C,
             'S    set three, and we are taking that from sheet number 7    2 up to 52, those calculations.         We have no' cover 8    sheet.
             -9                MR. KENKRE: Make it 1 to 52.
           '10                 MR. REICH: Now it's 1 to 52.         We have 11     been-given the cover sheet.         Amend it. The next one, r~y     ~12     the next bundle of things that we are getting is 1

13 calculation number SRB-111C, set 4, and it starts 14 with sheet 30 and it goes up to number 51 and again, 15 I'll give you the subject is the upper lateral 16 restraint, accident temperature investigation. On 17 the latter, by the way, the first one, the title is 13 Analysis for Accident Temperature (Cracked Model). 19 Now, in' addition to this, we understand 20 that we are going to get drawings pertaining to the (N'; L 21 cross-sections of the upper and lower support, where 22 the beams contact the wall and the wall measurements 23 in the area there, descriptions of the wall and the 3)% 24 rebar area, rebars in the wall. 25 MR.

                     -6    it's much easier for us to handle and it would be 7  entirely adequate.

8 MR. REICH: In addition, we are going to 9 get a set of drawings which are up on the wall here,

7 MR. KENKRE: Of' July, '76, the loads given 8 to us by Westinghouse by this letter was used in our

               ~9   original STARDYNE analysis and here we had assumed 11 0  Ethe peak loads in all the cases without trying to 11    see whether they were occurring simultaneously or (N        12    not. Later.on WPT'6668 of October '83 and 6987 of
 ;( .-l
      ~

13 February, '84 provided the lgads which were-

             '14    different from the earlier' loads and which were 15    smaller than the earlier loads and these loads were 15    used in Sur latest NASTRAN analyses with due regard 17   'to whether they occur. simultaneously or not.

18 MD. KUO:~ Can you repeat the last part? 19 MR. XENKRE: The WPT 6668 and G937 20 -provided loads which were less than the loads I L( 21 provided earlier by WPT 1203 and these loads were 22 used in our latest NASTRAN analysis with due regard 23 to time relationship between them. 1/ 24 MR.

              -16         did a little bit earlier perhaps, I believe you made 1 7.      the statement that with respect to the analysis of 18        the upper lateral restraint, that the missing rebar 19        question would not impact your analysis for that 20        portion and conversely, that your analysis or the gS        21        forces and design of the upper lateral support were
