The hangers, snubbers, and restraints inspection program had not been executed to verify that the installation of these items were in conformance with the design drawings. 4. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that the design basis for structures, systems and components are correctly translated into specifications,-drawings, procedures and instructions. Paragraph 17.1.3 of the PSAR states, in part, " Materials will be selected which correctly meet the requirements for the design, and intended application of safety-related components," and that " Parts for equipment and components will be selected which cortectly meet the requirements of the design, and their intended applications are reviewed as set forth.. to ensure their correct application and workability for their intended function is a reliable and safe manner." Contrary to the above, Design drawings Nos. M-126-7H-15, M-126-10H-58 and M-126-10H-57 a. do not include the required detail information to assure adequate installation of safety-related supports, in that, the design drawings do not indicate the bolt length nor embedment depth of the concrete expansion anchor bolts transmitting the load to the concrete structure. b. The design drawing Nos. M-448-6H-41 and M-488-8H-20 indicate that safety-related supports and restraints are to be anchored to nonsafety related masonry block walls using concrete expansion anchors. e e y y,,-- .p,
