qualification methodology to be used for WEB program as well as various limitations of the WEB program.

According to SWEC, WEB uses the equations that are listed in appendices 4W and SW of Specification 2323-SS-30. These equations were developed in the Westinghouse report WCAP 10923.

WEB is used for the evaluation of all strip plate installations and  ;

for sheet plates which' do not have any violations of the 2323-

SS-30 Specification. WEB internally. accounts for the directional load phasing as the foot print loads are applied directly to the program without regard to sign (i.e., the loads are input as ,

absolute values). WEB also allows the use of reduced allowables  !

which must be specified by the user. WEB will assume the locations of the studs if the stud locations are not known. The ] <

studs are assumed to be located 12" away from the face of an l attachment on either side of the attachment. Additionally, the  !

required spacing from loaded Richmond Inserts and any existing Hilti expansion anchors is . assumed so that any anchors of this type within the specified spacing can be accounted for.

In the qualification process, SWEC will use the BAP program to qualify WEB. BAP, a preprocessor to ANSYS, is used for base plate analysis. SWEC will use the allowables for WCAP 10923 is the qualification.

Bill Crowe TU Electric n Richard Orr - Westinghouse John Russ, Chun Wong Cygna Required item Comments Action By 1

In order for Cygna to receive direct answers on any questions regarding the Westinghouse WCAP 10923 and the WEB program, a telephone conference was arranged with Mr. Orr, the author of the WCAP document. ,

Cygna asked if there was any higher priority version'of the WCAP than the' one that was reviewed. Mr. Orr replied that there wasn't.

Cygna began the conversation by stating its interpretation of how the WCAP document, Appendices 4W and SW, and the WEB program ! were related. . The interpretation was as follows: the  !

.WCAP document is n' report on a series of baseplate analyses which were used to determine the behavior of embedded strip and sheet plates. . These analyses indicated which were the controlling parameters (i.e., forces, moments, plate stresses or stud tensions and. shears) for the embedded plate. Based on an evaluation of i the controlling parameters, simplified equations were developed '

which closely approximate the- actual stud tensions, shears and

. plate stresses.. These equations were then reproduced in Appendices 4W and SW of Specification 2323-SS-30. These same equations are used in the WEB program. Mr. Orr concurred with this interpretation. .

Cygna then began a series of questions which dealt with specific l sections of the WCAP document.

Section 1.0 - Introduction Q. Does the WESPLAT program reinsert the springs after it has

. removed them? Should the plate again make contact with

. the concrete substrate?

A. Yes.

i Section 2.0 - Summary and Conclusions

- Q. What is the reason for considering the moment arm of the  !

attachment used in calculating the resultant force couple as the width of the attachment'plus 2" ?

A. The moment arm, which is 2.5 times the plate thickness, was based on the results of the analyses which are illustrated in Figure 5-3 on Sheet 5-32. These plots show the point of contact closest to the attachment is usually 2".

Q. What is the meaning of " studs per attachment"?

A. These are the ' studs that are on either side of the attachment.

Q. .Why are shear loads assumed to be resisted only by the row of studs behind the attachment?

A. This assumption is only used in the analysis of embedded sheet plates where the row of studs near the edge of the plate may not be known and is assumed as non-existent.

Section 5.1.1 - Number of Bavs

- Q. Were the directions of the individually applied loads considered so as to maximize the responses of the plate and studs?

A. Yes. l l

Section 5.2.1 - Location l Q. The moments used in the analysis had a magnitude of 10 in-kips. Several of the allowable moments, which were calculated by multiplying the 10 in-kip moment by the ratio of the allowable plate stress over the actual plate stress had L magnitudes of approximately 70 in-kips. Given the inherent i l

. 'A. ' No. ~Such analyses do not:need to be performed given the inherent linearity of the system being analyzed.  ;

Section 5.2.1.2 - Out-of-olane Load; The curves in Figure 5-15 seemed to have been developed Q. .

based on two data points. Is this true?

A. Although the test of the WCAP does not indicate it, other analyses were performed which provided the data points at Ey_ = 2 and Ey = 4. Proof of this is found in Figure 5-17.

' Section 5.2.2 - Size Q. -What is the definition of Ex in Table 5-9, Case 37 i

A. This is . the eccentricity of the attachment from the centerline of the embedded strip plate.

Section 6.6 Q. How is the linear equation for determining plate stresses and stud tensions justified? )

A. The = premise of the linear interaction ' is that the plate behaves as a simply supported beam. For example, the plate stress is the greatest for Fz when applied at midspan, but is a minimum when applied - at the stud locations.

Consequently, the addition of any other forces and moments, when applied at locations other than at midspan will not combine to provide higher stresses than predicted by the equation.

Cygna asked Mr. Orr to explain the derivation of the equations for the analysis of the emtedded strip plates which were developed in WCAP 10923. Mr. Orr stated that if the attachments were not separated by more than 12" (as they were in the two-bay models used in -the WCAP), the worst location for stud tensions for Fz is at the studs and slightly off the stud line for Mx. This shows that there is little effect from other attachments. Mr. Orr then discussed the limits that were used in deriving the equations.

Comm~unications uni Report y lllllll11111lll111ll1111111111 Required item Comments Action By Eauation 63 Equation 63 is composed of three components that result in 7

' tensile loads on the studs. The component for Fz has limits based on Ex = 0 and Ex = 2.5 which places the attachment on the plate

centerline and along the - ' stud centerline, respectively. The equation for Mx is based on looking at the data derived from the analyses'in the WCAP (Table 5-3 is representative) and applying a curve. The equation for My is based on assuming the moment as

. an equivalent eccentrically applied force and shifting that force between the plate centerline and the stud centerline (Ex = 0 and Ex = 2.5, respectively).

Equations 6.4. 6.5 and 6.6 The upper curve given in Figure 5-20 for the results of placing the load at point 3 is . conservative. . The conservatism was intended only to allow the equation to be a simple function of the equation for the stress at the centerline. In Figure 5-21, higher values for point load by looking at the basis for Figure 5-19.

Cygna asked -if the -WCAP considered the possibility of the attachments in the vicinity of a butt joint between two embedded strip plates. Mr. Orr stated that WEB presently does not have the

. .- capability, of evaluating this situation. Additional work by Westinghouse, performed at the request of TU Electric, investigated the situation. Mr. Orr stated that if a 12" spacing between attachments is maintained across the butt line, without the. attachments being located in the cantilever region,. the formulations in the WCAP are acceptable. If the spacing is less than 12", the studs must be evaluated individually.

.I. Russ, C. Wong Cygna
M. DiLorenzo - SWEC Required item . Comments Action By Cygna had discussed two procedures with Stone & Webster (SWEC) earlier in the audit. Cygna had raised some concerns on procedures CPE-FVM-CS0-075 and ECE-3.06-15. The former procedure, which deals with the . as-built walkdown to identify anchorage spacing violations, was discussed first.

-In regard 'to Cygna's concerns on the identification of anchorage types which use threaded rods, SWEC suggested a proposed change to the procedure which required the Structural Embedment Group (SEG) to review any design documents and/or drawings should questions arise on the identification of a support . using threaded rods. Cygna noted that the language of the proposed procedure passage would not preclude the possibility of an error in the identification of supports which employ threaded rods. Cygna suggested that the procedure require a check of the applicable design ' documents if possible ambiguities may result in the identification process.

SWEC also noted that the term " appropriate action" will be revised to read " deficiency resolution." This process is applied to the walkdown drawings and will occur prior to O.C. sign-off.

SWEC stated that all measurements will be taken to a maximum and 4 minimum tolerance of 1/8".

Cygna spoke to Stone & Webster (SWEC) regarding the open items for Review Issue No.1 in the civil / structural area. The following topics were discussed:'

1. Phi factor'of 0.85 Cygna noted that the ASCE State-of-the-art Report on Steel Embedments recommended that a phi factor of 0.85 is to be used .when the connection has a ductile failure, which is not always true for. the anchorages at CPSES.

SWEC stated that they would address this concern.

2. Cygna stated that they were internally discussing the factors of safety and the cone overlap evaluation procedures being used by SWEC.
3. Cygna noted that the 5/3 interaction exponent used for Hilti expansion anchors should be limited to those anchors which fail in a ductile manner and for anchors where the applied shear is less than 40% of the allowable tension load of the anchor. SWEC stated that they would address Cygna's concern.

Cygna met with Stone & Webster (SWEC) to discuss SWEC's

.. approach to the calculation of anchorage capacities at CPSES and the resolution to Cygna Civil / Structural Review Issue No.1.

1. Anchorage in Tension Zones SWEC presented a position paper which detailed the results of a literature review on anchorages in tension regions (Attachment 1). ' The paper . concluded that the Richmond Inserts were acceptable and that wedge anchors exhibited ,

greater capacity when located in tension regions. This  !

behavior was attributed to the anchor shank becoming more  !

fully engaged between the wedges. Cygna stated that they j would review SWEC's response on anchorages in tension zones.

2. Factors of Safety for Richmond Inserts Cygna asked if there was a basis for the selection of a factor of safety (FS) equal to 2.0 used for extreme loading

(- . conditions. SWEC replied that using a factor of safety of f'

2 was normal practice. SWEC believes that the use of an FS equal to 2.0 for Nelson studs, which behave in a fashion similar to Richmond Inserts, is added justification as well as the results of the tests at site. In response to Cygna's i

nem - commena [EoT*By question as to why'an FS equal to 2.0 wasn't used for Hilti expansion anchors, SWEC stated that they felt there was not sufficient justification for the factor of safety.

3. Load Combination SWEC' presented a response to Cygna's concerns on the controlling. load combinations used in determining the capacity of the anchorages (Attachment 1). Cygna asked why an FS equal to 2.0 was used for the design of the Hilti expansion anchors. SWEC replied that this was not really a
i. " factor of safety" but rather the load factor from the ACI equation used to calculate the applied load in an ultimate

' design. SWEC divides the calculated anchorage capacity by 2.0. The value of 2.0 is rounded up from the load factor of 1.9 which is applied to the OBE term in the load equation.

The reduced capacity of the anchor is compared against the working- stress loads supplied by the contractors. Cygna stated that they would review SWEC's response on load factors. .

4. Anchoranes with Overlacoing Cones Cygna asked how an analyst would calculate the capacity of  ;

an anchor .whichLhas a cone that is lapped by an adjacent capacity. SWEC stated that they allow an analyst to

- assign full capacity to one of the anchors in the overlap configuration and assign the full reduction to the other anchor. This is acceptable since the capacity of the

' anchor group is governed ' by the projected area of the group. This method .is acceptable since the disciplines that are affected by the anchor overlap must concur on the reduction assignment.

Cygna asked how Hilti expansion anchors were dealt with.

SWEC noted that the failure mechanisms of an expansion anchor in tension are failure in the concrete, failure of the

. anchor by slip-through or pullout, or failure of the anchor material. SWEC has determined that the test data from Hilti International shows that the anchors fail in slip.

SWEC has calculated the capacity of the anchors when they are spaced at 10 bolt diameters (at this spacing, the anchors could have overlapping cones, depending on embedment depth) and has shown that the concrete capacity does not govern, but rather the slip failure does.

When calculating the capacity of the expansion anchors for overlap situations, i.e., less that 10 bolt diameters, SWEC -

calculates the concrete capacity of the group and checks

.this value against the published ultimate values for the Hilti anchors divided by an FS equal to 4.0. Cygna stated that .

the- Hilti test reports. show that not all ~ anchors fail in slip,

~

but that some fail in' the concrete, especially those in lower strength concrete and those with shallow' embedments. For-these cases, Cygna felt that SWEC should apply a capacity reduction due to spacing to the test values divided by an FS

, equal to 4.0. Cygna asked if SWEC had made a comparison of the values when such a reduction was applied. SWEC replied that they had not.

Cygna asked SWEC how their approach conformed to the requirements of IEB 79-02. SWEC replied that their approach exceeds the requirements of 79-02. SWEC also noted that they had employed this methodology at other plants.

5. Interaction Exponent of 5/3 for Hilti Expansion Anchors Cygna noted that SWEC was using that data from Teledyne's response to IEB 79-02 as a justification for use of the 5/3 exponent for Hilti expansion anchors. ' Cygna noted that the report. indicates that some anchor diameters will not have

-an FS equal' to 4.0 when an interaction exponent 5/3 is used.. Cygna noted that the ASCE State-of-the art Report on Steel Embedments recommends that the 5/3 exponent be used only when the failure mode of the anchor is ductile .

and when the applied shear load is less than 40% of the allowable tension load. SWEC stated that the reduction in the factor of safety was acceptable.

6. Concrete Canacity Reduction Factor (Phil Cygna asked SWEC for the basis for their use of the phi factor of 0.85. SWEC replied that the code of record for CPSES is ACI 318-71. This code specifies that a phi factor of 0.85 is required for evaluation of punching shear. The behavior of anchors in concrete is similar to punching shear; therefore, SWEC felt that a value of 0.85 is  ;

appropriate. . Additionally, a report in the literature by i Klingner shows that a phi factor of 0.85 is appropriate. )

SWEC had evaluated the data presented in the Klingner i paper and determined that for anchors with short embedment, a' phi' factor of 0.85 was more than adequate.

SWEC stated that DBD-CS-15 will be revised the reflect minimum edge distance of five bolt diameters for Hilti expansion anchors loaded in shear. j l

9. Canacities of 1/2" Hilti Kwik-bolts l SWEC is testing -1/2" diameter Hilti Kwik-bolts to address recent NRC concerns on the reported capacities. The tests are being conducted on site in accordance with ASTM E-488. Only tension tests are being performed.
10. Radius of Influence Cygna asked for a definition of the radius of influence used for some anchors. The radius of influence is the radius which yields a projected concrete area where the calculated concrete strength equals the strength of the anchor.

SWEC stated that the radius of influence was desired I because a uniform approach in the field and office was l needed to address the anchors. i l

11. Evaluation of the Groun Canacity of Grouted Anchors l l

Since grouted anchors are governed by a failure in the bond between the anchor and the surrounding concrete, Cygna asked how group action was evaluated. SWEC replied that g the group action was calculated based on concrete capacity.

'12. Boundaries Between the Civil / Structural Discioline and Comoonents from Other Disciplines p

' Cygna asked SWEC . to provide. the locations of the boundaries- between the civil / structural group and other i disciplines. SWEC replied that the Richmond Inserts, the bolt and the ' insert, were civil / structural items. Thru-

. bolts and any . bearing plates were the responsibility of the discipline using them, but the concrete was the responsibility of ' the civil / structural discipline. All other anchors were. within the scope of the civii/ structural e discipline.

13. Hilti Kwik-bolts Installed in Diamond Core bored Holes-In response' to Cygna's concerns on the installation of Hilti Kwik-bolts in diamond core-bored holes, SWEC provided a position paper which stated that the Hilti carbide tipped bits are manufactured to the same ANSI standard as Drillco diamond core-boring bits (Attachment 2). The paper concludes that since both suppliers manufacture to the same standard, the diameters of the bits will be the same, and there is no impact on the bolt capacity. Cygna stated that they would review SWEC's response.

RESPONSE

-Clusters of Richmond Inserts are treated in the same manner as other Richmond Inserts. The minimum spacing and free edge distance requirements.are provided in Specification 2323-55-30 Revision 3.

q DBD-CS-015 Revision 1 provides the design criteria for determining Richmond ' Ins e rt allowable capacities. The criteria addresses reductions  ;

in capacity for spacing, free edge distance, and thickness.of the concrete element.  !

l LAt this. time there is no available data concerning a reduction in  !

capacity for Richmond Inserts located in high moment regions. A paper by James D. Copley and Edwin G. Burdette (" Behavior of Steel-to-Concrete Anchorages in High Moment Regions", ACI Journa.,

March-Apr11'1985)' discusses the behavior of certain types of anchors (grouted bolts, self-drilling anchors'and wedge anchors) in high moment ,

.regione subject to dynamic loadings. The paper shows a reduced i capacity for the grouted bolts and self-drilling anchors and an increased capacity for the wedge anchors. The reduced capacities are attributed to the fact that the grouted bolts and self-drilling anchors depend on friction as the holding mechanism. The increased capacity for the wedge anchors is credited to the wedge becoming more firmly seated as the tapered head moves through the wedges as cracks open.

Richmond Inserts are cast-in-place and do not depend on the same holding mechanism as the anchors addressed in the paper. Richmond Inser+s have

.a concrete failure mode similar to a punching shear. ACI 316-71 does i not combine the effects of the local punching shear with the global effects of moments. Considering the general conservatism of the 0 methods used to evaluate Richmond Inserts. the mode of concrete failure and:the data available concerning anchors.in moment regions. there is nc j

^

need te.further reduce the capac)ty of Richmond Inserts installed in the sides of1 beams to account for being in a moment region.

ISSUE:

h Cygna has. expressed concern that appropriate load factors may not have been used'for embedmonts in concrete. Cygna was particularly concerned with the use of a load factor of 1.0 for extreme loads when there is an extreme load combination containing a load factor of 1.25 for OBE.

RESPONSE

DBD-CS-015 Revision l' addresses this. concern. The' allowable tensile and shear. capacities are generally calculated by dividing the ultimate l capacity (including. appropriate O factors) by an appropriate load factor.

The load factor as based on the largest load factor found in the governing load combinations. A load factor of 1.9 is used for service loads and a load factor of 1.0 is used for extreme loads. If the contributions of the types of' load-(e.g., dead load, live load and seismic load) are known.

~

the allowable capacity may be calculated using the applicable load factors.

The only exceptions to the above method are Richmond Inserts and expansion anchors. The allowable' capacity of a Richmond Insert is the lesser of the ultimate test value divided by a factor of safety'of 3.0 for service load and 2.0 for extreme load or the calculated ultimate capacity divided by a load factor of 2.0. The allowable capacity of an expansion anchor

is the lesser of the ultimate test value divided by a factor of safety of 4.0 or the calculated ultimate capacity divided by a load f actor of 2.0.

The following extreme lond combination that contains the load factor of 1.25 for OBE is not a governing load combination.

U = D + L + Ta + Ra + 1.25 Pa + 1.0 (Yr + Yj + Ym)

  • 1.25 Fego The following extreme load combination envelopes the previous load combination for pipe supports. This is due to the fact that the SSE N411 accelerations are more than-1.25 times the OBE accelerations as shown in the attached table.

U = D + L + Ta + Ra + 1.0 Pa + 1.0 (Yr + Yj + Ym)

  • 1.0 Fegs For other systems, such as electrical supports, the load combination in

-question would be enveloped by the following service load combination.

.CYCNA' CIVIL-STRUCTURAL REVIEW ISSUE NO.7 a , ,

Installation of Expansion Anchors in Diamond Cored Holes j CYCNA CONCERN From y the Cygna Civil-Structural Review Issues List, Revision 0 (7/21/87).

thelcurrent concern regarding.this issue is:

"Cygna believes that the use of diamond cored holes will increase i the' variability in the anchor bolt capacity and potentially result in inadequate bolt installations".

BACKGROUNDS s 4 2

- When. Hilti. expansion anchors were replaced, diamond core drills were used to remove the' existing, anchor-.from the concrete in accordance with section 3.1.4.2.3 of Brown & Root Procedure CEI-20, " Installation of Hilti Drilled In' Bolts". Revision 9 of this document states:

"The bolt being replaced has been removed from the concrete using a diamond core bit of the same nominal outside diameter as the. replacement expansien bolt. The replacement bolt shall.be'one diameter size larger than the bolt being' removed".

In discussion with.'Hilti Inc., Cygna was told that expansion anchors

' installed ' in holes drilled with diamond core drills may provide ultimate strengths less than those published in the "Hilti Design Manual". . This position stems'from Hilti's experience that diamond core bits have slightly

' larger diameters than-Hilti carbide bits. Cygna's Review Issue List states:

"In~ order to avoid any such. reductions, careful control may be ~ established by measuring the core bit diameter of the hole- diameter.

~

Cygna has not observed any QC procedures which impose such control".

INVESTIGATION

' In a - letter to Cygna (February 3, 1987) Hilti presented results of tests performed on 1 inch diameter anchors installed in core-bored holes. The

- drill diameters were measured by Hilti and SWEC observed that some of

- the larger diameter lis t h" re sulted in reasonably high pullout forces. /

However, Hilti's data is somewhat limited for installations in diamond cored holes.

CPSES uses DRILLCO diamond core bits. In discussions with DRILLCO, SWEC was ' . informed that their bits are manufactured in accordance with ANSI ,

procedure allows work in the particular area to be guided by the clearance . requirements, but that SWEC would not use any i measurements- taken prior to their declaration that tne area must  !

meet clearance - criteria. Additionally, SWEC noted that the clearance criteria becomes a QC attribute once an area has been declared ready for commodity clearance evaluation.

The walkdown and ' evaluation procedure states that a deviation is J any clearance that does not meet the clearances given in the criteria - and evaluation procedure. A violation is termed any instance where the clearance requires a modification of the physical plant to prevent predicted damage. During the walkdown phase, 1

-SWEC engineers record - all deviations.

These deviations are i f , evaluated by the engineers to show that commodity impact cannot  !

occur between two items (e.g., a column separates the two items); j that the. impact will 'not result in any damage; or that a violation  ;

- has occurred and that modification'n is required. However, in all l cases, the deviation evaluations, as well as any violations, will be  ;

attached to -.a DCA and routed to the affected disciplines for concurrence with any proposed resolution by the SWEC engineers.

In cases where modifications may be required, SWEC will act as arbitrator between the contractors should conflicts occur.

Required item . Comments Action By Cygna met with. Stone & Webster (SWEC) to discuss SWEC's review of the Gibbs & Hill calculations of the firewall to which cable tray support 3136 is attached. SWEC stated that 'they reviewed the calculations and determined that they were acceptable as is.

. Alternate calculations were not. generated. This process was used

because SWEC was interested in only responding to Cygna's concerns

' at the time. SWEC noted that the firewa!! is being reviewed as part of the overall civil / structural design validation program (DVP).

In that program, the review of the design would be documented to show that the Gibbs &' Hill calculations were acceptable "as is"; were acceptable with some additional calculations by'SWEC; or, that the  ;

calculations were not acceptable and required a total requalification 1 by SWEC. i SWEC' stated that they could provide Cygna with the calculations ,

from the DVP. Cygna stated that the scope of the their structural '

audit was the electrical raceways and issues related to them. These related issues are those such as Richmond Inserts, embedded strip plates and the design of the firewall which supports cable tray 3136, to be handled by SWEC. SWEC stated that they would provide separate answers to Cygna's concerns on the firewall evaluation in order to be consistent with the approach that they had originally undertaken for responses.

SWEC J replied 'that they .had orginally accepted the interaction .value, because the method of analysis was quite conservative. SWEC felt that a more refined approach, e.g., a finite element analysis, would show that the plate was acceptable.

1. Load Combinations Cygna asked SWEC to describe why the load combinations were acceptable for both loading conditions specificed in the FSAR.

. SWEC used the example of Hilti expansion anchors to discuss the issue. Hiltis are governed by the following load combination:

U = 1.4 D + L7 L + 1.9 Fego where :

U = Ultimate load D = Dead load L = Live load Fego = Seismic load due to the operating basis earthquake The calculated ultimate capacity is divided by a factor of 2.0 which is essentially the load factor for the Fego term in the equation above.

This reduced ultimate' capacity is used for all loading conditions, including those for factored loads. SWEC noted that the controlling factored load combination uses load factors of 1.0 for all terms.

Additionally, SWEC noted that DBD-CS-81, which is used for the design validation of the structural elements, considers all attachment loads from any discipline component as part of the Ro and Ra terms.

l In all FSAR-specified load combinations, the load factors on Ro and K .Ra are 1.0. Cygna stated that they would review the load l Signed. - Page of 2

L 2.- - Jurisdictional Boundaries -

SWEC ' reiterated that the jurisdictional boundary between the civil / structural . discipline and any others is from the anchor bolts' back to the structure. This is the reason that they are able. to use the AISC allowables which are based on the gross area of the bolting - material. Cygna stated that they would review available documentation on the location of . the jurisdictional boundary.

3. Capacity Reduction Factor (Phi) for Anchors Cygna- expressed. their position that a phi factor of 0.65 is warranted for the calculation of the concrete capacity for anchorages. SWEC stated that a phi factor of 0.85 was shown to be acceptable in a paper by Burdette. SWEC added' that the basis for ' phi ' = 0.65 is unknown and probably due to the conservatism of committee decisions. Additionally, SWEC noted that the paper by Klingner showed that the 0.85 was appropriate for the' methodology employed for the anchors at CPSES. Cygna noted that the Klingner paper concluded that phi .= .0.65 should be used. 'SWEC agreed that . that was true, but that the use of phi = 0.65. was to account for other factors such as tension zones.
4. Reductions for.Hilti Expansion Anchors for Overlapping Cones SWEC ' explained . the process by which they calculate the capacity of - Hilti expansion anchors which . have overlapping cones. SWEC calculates the capacity based on the group action of the anchors and divides by a factor of safety of 2.0, which is based on the load factor for OBE. The capacity is compared to

- the test values for the Hilti anchors (which SWEC states show the capacity 'of the anchors for behavior under a slip failure) divided by a factor of safety of 4.0. The lower of the values is used for the anchorage capacity. SWEC feels that this method is acceptable because it differentiates between the failure modes of the anchorage, i.e., slip failures do not depend 'on anchorage spacing, concrete failures do. Cygna noted that the tests for the Hilti anchors show that the failure is not always slip; therefore, SWEC should consider the reduc- tion in the test values due to spacing for those anchors that exhibit concrete failure mecham,sms.

Cygna and SWEC agreed to continue this discussion at a later date.
