8-120A CASK, OPTIONAL TIE-DOWN SYSTEM 1.0 GENERAL

1.1 INTRODUCTION

This Appendix provides a description and analysis of an optional cask tie-down system for the model CNS 8-120A package.

The present tie-down system is described and evaluated in the CNSI Safety Analysis Report, Revision 1, Decenber 1985 (Reference A.1).

1.2 DESCRIPTION

The original tie-down arrangement of the CNS 8-120A package, described in Section 2.4.4 of Revision 1 of the SAR, consists of a separate structure with no part attached to the cask body.

In the optional arrangemen t, this structure is replaced by four integral lug assenblies.

Each assembly consists of an axial lug and two circumferential lugs.

These l

lugs are welded to the cask body by full-penetration groove-welds.

In order to weld the lug assemblies directly to the cask body, portions of the ring plate (Reference Drawing C-110-D-29008-010, Rev., included in Section 1.3) have been removed and the exposed edges welded back to the cask body.

The cask is secured to the vehicle by steel ropes having shackles at the ends.

The tie-down points on the vehicle are selected in such a way that the loads in the steel ropes, due to accident conditions loading, are minimized.

Drawing C-110-D-29008-010, Rev., contains the details of the optional tie-down arrangement for the package.

Figure A.1 shows the optional tie-down arrangement.

STRUCTURAL EVALUATION q

2.0 (s

2.1 INTRODUCTION

This section provides a discussion of the evaluation performed on the optional tie-down arrangement for the 8-120A package.

The existing tie-down arrangement-is discussed in Section 2.4.4 of Revision 1 of the SAR.

The evaluation performed complies with the Nuclear Regulatory Comission Regulation 10 CFR 71.45(b) governing tie-down devices.

Each component used in the optional tie-down arrangement is evaluated under conditions where a static force is applied to the center of gravity of the package.

This force is composed of a vertical component of two times the loaded package weight, a horizontal component along the direction of vehicle travel equal to ten times the loaded package weight and a horizontal component transverse to the direction of travel equal to five times the loaded package weight.

The results of the evaluation verify that the tie-down system is capable of withstanding this static force q

without generating stress in any part of the package in excess of its b

yield stren gth.

A summary of these results is provided in Table A.1 bel ow.

2. 2 TIE-DOWN LOADS EVALUATION U

The tie-down of the 8-120A cask to the vehicle with the optional tie-down arrangement is as shown in Figure A.2.

The loads in the tie-down cables are obtained by statically applying the required 10W, SW and 2W loads on the cask C.G. along x, y and z directions respectively.

The weight (W) of a loaded package with optional tie-down arrangement is 70,000 pounds.

The total load in the cables is obtained as the sum of the cable load under each of these loading conditions.

2.2.1 Cable Load Under x-Direction Loading Due to negative x-direction loading, two of the four cables, namely cables 2 and 3, will be slack and the remaining two will carry the load.

Due to symmetry, both cables 1 and 4 will carry equal loads.

The magnitude of the load in each cable, T, can x

be calculated by moment balance about point A.

we thus have, Tjx = 148,026 lbs., T2x = 0, T3x = 0 and T4x = 148,026 lbs.

2.2.2 Cable Load Under y-Direction Loading Due to negative y-direction loading, two of the four cables, namely cables 3 and 4, will be slack and the remaining two cables will carry the load.

Due to symmetry, both cables 1 and 2 will carry equal loads.

2.2.3 Cable Load Under z-Direction Loading v

Due to z-direction loading, all of the four cables are effective and because of symmetry, they carry equal loading.

The magnitude of the loading, T,

can be estimated by force balance along z-direction.

= 47,991 lbs.

T 47 2.2.4 Cable Load Under Combined Loading iV To obtain the load under the combined loading of 10W, SW and 2W along x,

We thus obtain,

2.3 TIE-DOWN STRESS EVALUATION q(./

2.3.1 Tie-Down Lug Stresses Four tie-down lug assemblies, constructed from 2-inch SA 516 Gr 70 steel (yield strength of 38,000 psi and ultimate strength of 70,000 psi) are welded to the cask body at locations shown in Figure A.3.

Each assedly is comprised of one axial lug and two circumferential lugs.

Under the accident conditions loading, the lug asseelies experience a di f ferent amount of loading as indicated in Section 2.2, the largest of which is 288,727 lbs.

along a line making 43.17* with the axis of the cask.

The stresses in the lug assembly due to this loading are calculated by conservatively disregarding the circumferential lugs.

The axial lug (Figure A.4) is analyzed for shear-out and bending and it is shown that under these conditions, stresses nowhere in the lug exceed the yield strength of the material.

IO v

Shear-Out of the Lug The maximum shear stress in the lug is calculated by assuming the shear-out of lug alcng a-a plane.

V Therefore, the maximum shear stress in the lug is smaller than the yield strength of the material in shear.

I Bending of the Lug gO The maximum bending stress in the lug occurs due to bending of section b-b about point o.

Bending moment about point o, M, = 210,576 x 2.25 - 197,537 x 1.75

yield strength of the material, the maximum normal stress and maximum shear stress in the lug will be smaller than the L

corresponding yield strength of the material.

Stresses in the Welds i

i The tie-down lugs are welded to the cask body by full penetration groove welds.

Therefore, the wolds are implicttly qualificd for i

the Inading through the qualification of the lugs.

No separate analysis for the welds is needed.

A?-6 (0087W)

?. 3. 2 Shell Stresses o

(

I v

To evaluate the local stresses in the cask body, an ANSYS (Ref.

A.?) finite element model was used.

To simplify the analysis, it was assumed that the stresses in the cask body due to the tie-down loading could be calculated by superposing the effect of loading at each of the lugs separately.

This assumption is totally valid if the stresses in the cask are within the yield strength of the material.

Additionally, if the stresses in the cask are confined to a small region near the load application, no superposition is necessary to obtain the maximum stresses in the cask body.

A 180*

model of the cask was constructed with the load applied at only one lug location.

The results of the analysis did show that the stresses are confined to a

small region near the load application.

Hence, the estimate of maximum stresses in the cask body was directly obtained from this model, The model is comprised of the quadrilateral shcIl elements (STIF n

V>

63) to represent the cask shells, the bol ting ring and the tie-down lugs.

The bottom plate was represented by stiff beam elements (STIF

4) between the inner and outer shell s and interconnected at the centroid of the base plate.

No credit was taken for the stiffness of the cask lid.

The tie-down load was applied at the corresponding node of the axial lug as a nodal force.

Occause of the geometry of the cask (axisymetric) and the nature of loading (planer),

a plane of symmetry exists.

There fore, only one-hal f of the geome try needs to be rodeled.

Symmetry bound.iry conditions are defined at all the nodes lying on this plane.

The nodes on the lower plenum of the cask outer shell are restrained in the vertical direc tion.

A node on the outer shell diametrically opposite to the point of application of the load is restrained in the herizontal direction to remove the rigid body motion of the cask under the applied loading.

Figure A.5 shows the geometry of the finite element model along with the o

applied load and boundary conditions.

The model has fine mesh b

near the load application.

Figure A.6 shows the exploded view of the geometry near the tie-down arrangement.

A?-7 (0087W)

A linear static analysis of the model was puformed.

The output of the analysis (Reference A.3) included the nodal displacements, element stress components and reaction forces.

The entire model was scanned for stress intensity.

A stress intensity contour plot of the model is shown in Figure A.7.

The quantity plotted is nodal stress intensity which corresponds to the peak value.

However, selection of this cuantity to satisfy the maximum stress value is conservative.

The largest value of stress intensity in the model is 28,877 psi which occurs in the outer shell of the cask near the tie-down lug.

This value is smaller than 32,000 psi (yfeld strength of SA 516 Gr 60).

Therefore, the normal and the shear stresses everywhere in the cask will remain within the corresponding yield strength of the material.
