CEB REPORT SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT CONCRETE NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING

~ Introduction A review of.the computer printout of the " Concrete Cylinder Data" (CSG-87-005), which is the data base of the strength tests of standard cured concrete cylinders from Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, revealed periods of time when the results did not meet the requirements of General Construction

' Specification No G-2 for Plain and Reinforced Concrete. This specification required that no more than 10 percent of the strength test results be below the specified strength for specified strengths equal to or greater than 3000 psi and no more than 20 percent for specified strengths less than 3000 psi.

The effect of this deficiency on the Category I structures was investigated using estimated in-place strengths which were developed using the results of a test progrom reported in CEB 86-12 " Study of Long Term Concrete Strength of Sequoyah and Watts Bar Nuclear Plants." It was later verified that the equivalent specified strengths based on 90 days standard cured cylinders also satisfy design requirements. Nondestructive concrete testing was performed to provide additional verification of the adequacy of the inplace concrete. This

. report documents the results of those tests.

Procedure

~

Six mixes which had time periods when more than 10 percent of the strength test results were less than the specified strength were investigated. These mixes were:

300.75 AFW, 301.5AFW, 401.5AFW, 500.75 AFWG, 500.75 AEW, and 800.75 BFW.

(The 401.5AFWR mix had been previously evaluated). Using a computer printout of the " Concrete Pour Card Data Base" (CSG-87-004) an attempt was made to randomly select a number of pours that were placed during acceptable strength periods and a number of pours that were placed during low strength periods but which contained only one mix. If the selected pours were accessible they were tested per ASTM C803 for penetration resistance and per ASTM C805 for rebound number.

7 Test Results Test results are listed in Table I.

When initial selections were made from' the pour data base it was not noted that some pours were split. Three pours, 0-A2CPABAB15B, 20D and 21A (0Bs. 1, 12 and 13) which required 301.5BFW l

DNEl - 1344M l

[

~,

e concrete were split and were completed using 401.5 AFW concrete during a low strength' period.

Initial selection was to represent low strength 4000 psi

- concrete but since the pours incorporate substantial quantities of other

. mixes, the test results were attributed to the lower strength mixes.

Two pours. 0-A2CPABAB24-13 and-16 were split and both partial pours were tested. The Iower portion of -13 (Obs 15) was placed with 4000 psi concrete-during an acceptable strength period whereas the upper portion (Obs 5) was placed with 3000 psi concrete during a low strength period. The lower portion of -16 (Obs 17) was also placed with 4000 psi concrete during an acceptable strength per.iod whereas the upper portion (Obs 18) was placed with the same mix-during a low strength period.

Strength test results for both 28 and 90 days are provided when samples were attributable to specific pours. The pours randomly selected during low strength periods were selected without regard to such test results. The test results indicate that even though the pours were made in low strength periods, the specific tests attributable to the pours were not low in strength.

The column headed ESS provides the equivalent specified strength (approximately the strength below which no more than 10 percent of the strength test results would occur) for the time period in which the pour was made. The column headed PE provides the average probe extension and the column headed RN the average rebound number for the tested pour. All slabs were tested from the underside. Five unital were subtracted from the rebound numbers determined vertically upward before listing here,and comparing them to the other rebound numbers determined horizontally.

Discussion Only the 3000A and 5000A mixes have sufficient data for independent analysis.

Table 2 contains the statistical analysis of the 3000A rebound numbers.

Sample 1 contains the pours made during time periods with acceptable strengths and sample 2 those made during time periods when there was an excessive number of low strength test results. Note that the average and the median of rebound numbers is higher for sample 2 than for sample 1.

Table 3 contains similar information for probe extensions. Differences between sample 1 and 2 are not statistically significant.

Tables 4 and 5 contain the analyses of rebound numbers and probe extensions for 5000A concrete. Again, differences between sample 1 and 2 are not statistically significant.

Table 6 contains the regression analysis for the 90 day strength of standard cured cylinders as a function of the rebound numbers. The data is plotted on figure 1 together with the 95 percent confidence limits for the mean and for individual test results. Table 7 and figure 2 contain similar information for 4

probe extension data. The fit of the regression equations for both test methods is not good. The probe and rebound hammer regression equations have correlation coefficients of 0.19 and 0.55, respectively, (1.0 equals perfect fit). The lowest rebound number obtained. 34 (Obs 1), appears to indicate a concrete with a standard cured 90 day cylinder strength of 4900 psi.

DNE1 - 1344M i

Conclusions The following conclusions are made.

1.

The test data does not indicate any unacceptable concrete.

2.- The test data does not indicate a statistically significsnt difference between the concrete placed during low strength periods and that placed during acceptable strength periods.
