1.1 INTRODUCTION

1.1.2 Numberof Plant Units kJ The Advanced Boiling Water Reactor Standard For the purposes of this document, only a Safety Analysis Report (ABWR SSAR),is written in single standard plant will be considered.

accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.70. For consistency with NUREG 0800 the ABWR SSAR 1.1.3 Description oflAcation includes Section 15.8 which addresses anticipated transients without scram and Chapter 18 which This plant can be constructed at any location addresses human factors. In addition, response which meets the parameters identified in Chapter to TMI related matters is presented in Appendix 2.

1.1 A Type of Nuclear Steam Supply The response to the severe accident policy statement is provided in Chapter 19. Chapter 20 This plant will have a boiling water reactor is included to provide a section for a question nuclear steam supply system designed and l and response guide, supplied by GE and designated as ABWR.

including tne foundation mats and everything within these structures.

I System boundaries may vary with the nature of the interf ace, but the general rule of determining interfaces is that boundaries extend to just outside of the building walls. A major factor in the design process is the determination of the exact description of the interface.

Parameters such as dimensions and orientation of the pipes, type of connections, and pressures at the interface points are established and identified in Section 1.9.

M 23A6100AE Standard Plant RN A 3A.2 ABWR STANDARD PLANT SITE PLAN C)

The typical site plan of the ABWR standard plant is shown in Figure 3A.21. The plan orientations are identified by 00 1800 and 900 2700 directions. The cross section along the 001800 is shown in Figure 3A.2 2. The reactor building is nearly square in plan with dimensions of 56 m x 59 m (184 ft .,194 ft). The building is deeply embedded with embedmunt depth of 25.7 m (85 ft). Adjacent to the /eactor building along the 00 direction it. the control building. This building is rectangular in plan having a plan dimensions of 16 m x 45 m (52 ft x 147 ft) and the embedment depth of 12,2 m (40 ft). Adjacent to the control building in the 00 direction farther away from the reactor building is the turbine building wh;eh is 106 m (348 ft) long, 58.5 rn (192 ft) wide, and 18.3 m (60 ft) embedded. Adjacent to the control building in the 900 direction is the service building which is 16 m x 27.5 m (53 ft x 90 ft) with side extension toward the reactor building side of 10 m x 12.5 m (32 ft x 40 ft). Tbc service buildings, like other structures shown in Figure 3A.21, are considered minor for their

\O effects on SSI of RB, and are not considered in this appendix. All buildings are supported on separated basemats. The separation distance between buildings is 2 m (6.6 ft).

The primary objective of t'ae analysis  !

performed in this appendix is to obtain seismic response for the reactor building complex. The consideration of other buildings in the seismic analysis is only regt. ired when they are expected to affect the seismic response of the reactor building.

In the modeling of the buildings, the 00 1800 and 900 2700 directions are designated as X and Y axes, respectively. As evident from the site plan, the consideration of structure to structure interaction effe:t in the I SSI analysis for the reactor building is only required for X direction. For the analysis in the Y direction, only the reactor building by itself needs to be considered since the structure to structure interaction effect in this direction is expected to be insignificant.

In the SSI analyses, Hi and H2 are used in the horizontal Y (90 ) and X (00) directions, respectively. The V is the vertical component.

Each time history component has a duration of 22 seconds and is digitized at 0.01 see time intervals. The acceleration time histories which are developed from the design response spectra per Regulatory Guide 1.60 and normalized to 0.15g OBE are shown in Figures 3A.3-1 through 3A.3 3.

The corresponding velocity and displacement time Ms;ories are abown in Figures 3A.4 4 through 3A.4.9. Subsution 3.7.1.2 provides' the response e esi n response spe tra.

The input motion (or control motion) is defined at the finished grade in the free field.

The motion is assumed to be generated by vertically propagating plane seismic shear waves for the horizontal components and compression for the vertica.1 component waves.

The secondary P-wave velocity corresponding to the calculated nonlinearity is attributed to the SSI effects. strain compatible shear modulus (or shear wave This secondary effect on structural response is velocity) for each layer is determined following usually not significant and is neglected in the the steps described in Subsection 3A.3.3. The appendix. soil damping associated with the P wave is considered to be the same as the final iterated The soil primary nonlinearity is approximately damping associated with the shear wave, accounted for by an iterative process to obtain equivalent linear soil properties of shear modulus and material damping corresponding to effective strains developed in the free field.

The strain compatible properties are then assigned to be the linear soil properties in the SSI iialysis. These properties also determine the maximum element size of the foundation model using the finite-element approach.

The free field site response analysis is performed using computer program SHAKE (Ref. 5) q which uses the principle of one dimensional b propagation of shear waves in the vertical direction for a system of homogeneous, visco clastic soil iayers. An equivalent linear method is used to compute strain compatible shear modulus and material damping for each soil layer. All sites except the EH profile defined in Table 3A 6 are analyzed using the H t horizontal component input motion at the ground surface. The analyses are performed up to maximum frequency of 20 Hz which is considered to be adequate for the purpose of obtaining strain-compatible properties. The free field site response analysis is not performed for the i EH profile since the next hardest profile HR already shows that the shear modulus and material damping corresponding to the induced strain level are essentialy the same as their initial values  !

at low strains. Therefore, the SSI analyses for i the HR and EH profiles are performed using the l initial modulus and a conservative material damping of 0.1% (undamped).

23A6100AE l Standard Plant REV.A 3A.9 ANALYSIS RESULTS The analysis results of the cases defined in Subsection 3A 7 are enveloped to establish all site envelope loads. These enveloped loads ,

obtained using the finite element method are I further evaluated against the enveloped results of the cases analyzed by an alternate approach based on continuum mechanics. Conservative design consideration is then given to establish  !

the seismic design loads which include the effects of a different SSI approach on the structural response predicted by the finite element method. ~

j The analysis results in the form of I site enveloped seismic design loads at key l locations in the reactor building complex are presented in Appendix 3G.

The Standard Review Plan Section 3.7.2 requires that two approaches be considered in soil structure interaction analysis. As described in Appendix 3A, the finite-element method is used to establish site enveloped seismic design loads which include conservative design considerations of effects of an alternate approach. The alternate approach considered is based on continuum mechanics using the computer program CLASSI/ASD (Ref.1) developed by ASD International, Inc., San Francisco, CA. This is 1 a linear analysis program capable of handling '

three-dimensional soil / multiple embedded foundation interaction problem. This attachment to appendix 3A presents the detailed methodology descriptions and analysis conditions considered.

Figure 3AA 1 shows (1) Calculation ofImpedance Matrix in a schematic way the three major steps of the substructure approach. The impedance matrix describes the frequency dependent force displacement The half space is first analyzed using ao relationship of the foundation (s).

V 3C.3.1 Description CECAP computes stresses in a concrete element under thermal and/or nonthermal (real) loads, considering effects of concrete cracking. The element represents a section of a concrete shell or slab, and may include two layers of reinforcing, transverse reinforcing, prestressing tendons, and a liner plate.

The program outputs stresses and strains along the element in the concrete, reinforcement, and liner plate, and resultant forces and moments for l the composite concrete element.

CECAP assumes linear stress-strain relationships for steel and for concrete in compression. Concrete is assumed to have no tensile strength. The solution is an iterative process, whereby tensile stresses found initit'l; in concrete are relieved (by cracking) ano redistributed in the element. The equilibrium of nonthermal loads is preserved. For thermal 1 effects, the element is assumed free to expand l

(] inplane, but is fixed against rotation. The capability for expansion and cracking generally results in a reduction in thermal forces and moments from the initial condition.

3C.3.2 Validation CECAP is written and maintained by Bechtel Power Corporation (BPC) of San Francisco, California. Program validation documentation is available at BPC in San Francisco.

Nonlinear and time-independent stress strain relations are used to model the pipe and the restraint. Using a plastic hinge concept, bending of the pipe is assumed to occur only at the fixed end and at the location supported by the restraint.

Effects of pipe shear deflection are consi-dered negligible. The pipe-bending moment-deflection (or rotation) relation used for these locations is obtained from a static nonlinear cantilever beam analysis. Using moment-angular rotation relatians, nonlinear equations of motion are formulated using energy considerations and the equations are numerically integrated in small time steps to yield the time-history of the pipe motion.

O FRACTURE MECHANICS LEAK RATE CALCULATION AND LEAK DETECTION METHODS  ;

3E.1 INTRODUCTION As discussed in Subsection 3.6.3, this appendix characterizes the fracture mechanics properties of ABWR piping materials and analysis methods, including the leak rate calculation methods. In Appendix 3F, these properties and methods are applied to specific piping systems to demonstrate their cligibility for the LBB qualification.

Piping qualified by LBB would be excluded from the non mechanistic postulation requirements of double ended guillotine break (DEGB) specified in Subsection 3.6.3. The LBB qualification means that the through wall flaw lengths that are detectable by leakage monitoring systems (see Subsection 5.2.5) are significantly smaller than the flaw lengths that could lead to pipe rupture or instability.

O Section 3E.2 addresses the fracture mechanics O properties aspects required for evaluation in accordance with Subsection 3.6.3. Section 3E.3 describes the fracture mechanics techniques and methods for the determination of critical flaw lengths and evaluation of flaw stability.

Explained in Section 3E.4 is the determination of flaw lengths for detectable leakages wi.a margin. Finally, a brief discussion on the leak detection capabilities is presented in Section 3 E.5.

The leakage detection system gives separate considerations to: leakage within the drywell and leakage external to the drywell. The limits for reactor coolant leakage are described in Subsection 5.2.5.4.

The total leakage consists of the identified leakage and the unirentified leakage. The identified leakage is that from pumps, valve stem packings, reactor vessel head seal and other seals, which all discharge to the equipment drain sump. The technical specification limit on the identified leak rate is expected to be 25 gpm.

The unidentified leak rate is the portion of the totalleakage received in the drywell sumps that is not identified as previously described.

The licensing (technical specification) limit on unidentified leak rate is expected to vary from 1 to 5 gpm. Therefore, leak rates of 5 and 10 gpm will be used in the leakage flaw size calculations performed in Appendix 3F to evaluate

("N v the margins against unstable flaw size and tearing instability load.

3F.1 INTRODUCTION As explained in Subsection 3.6.3, this appendix applies the methods of Appendix 3E to specific high en ,rgy piping systems in an ABWR Standard Nucicar Island plant to demonstrate their qualification for the leak before break (LBB) approach. These qualified piping systems meet the LBB criteria of Subsection 3.6.3 and are excluded from requirements for evaluation of dynamic effects (as identified in introduction to Section 3.6) resulting from a postulated break.

The LBB qualification has been demonstrated by showing that the through wall flaw lengths that are detectable by the leakage monitoring systems (See Subsection 5.2.5) are significantly smaller than the flaw lengths that could result into a pipe rupture or could become unstable.

A small amount of water may collect in conditions into the basic equations. Thus, the near horizontal leg of the main steam line relief valve discharge and turbine stop valve due to steam condensation.

The calculations for the critical flaw size and instability load corresponding to leakage size cracks were performed using the J T methodology. Specifically, the $500F J.R curve shown in Figure 3E.2-8 and the Ramberg Osgood parameters given in Subsection 3E.3.2.1 were used. A plot of instability tension and bending stresses as a function of crack length was developed. Table 3F.2 2 shows the calculated critical crack size and the margin along with the instability load margin for the leakage size cracks.
