"* Hillslope is 430,000 years old
"* Subjected to many large earthquakes
* Assumed 4 inches would occur in one slide event

NRC/PG&E Open Meeting, San Francisco CA Diablo Canyon Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation Properties of Subsurface Materials Robert White Geotechnical Engineer PG&E Geosciences Department U April 11, 2002

Purpose m Characterize subsurface materials for ISFSI, CTF and Transport Route for

"*Foundation properties

"*Slope stability assessments

Subsurface Materials Assessed

"*Rock Dolomite

"*

"*Sandstone

"*Friable rock

"*Clay Beds

Subsurface Materials Properties - Rock m Density m Shear Wave Velocities mYoung' s Moduli and Poisson's Ratios m Shear Strength

Rock Properties - Density

  • Determined from lab tests of rock core samples of dolomite and sandstone
  • 140 pcf +/- 8 pcf for all rock From SAR Section 2.6.4.3.1; Data Report I, Table 1

Rock Properties - Shear Wave Velocities

"* Obtained from suspension logging of borings at ISFSI site

"* Compared with velocities obtained in previous investigations at power block From SAR Section 2.6.5.1.3.2 Figs. 2.6-33, 34, and 35; SAR 2.6.1.10; Data Report C

ISFSIborings 96BA-3 (1998) 98MA-1.4 (1996)

(Fir 2.6-33) a S

0 Rock shear wave velocities From SAR Figure 2.6-35

Young's Moduli and Poisson's Ratios mFrom suspension velocities for rock mass m Compared with lab tests of rock core samples of dolomite and sandstone From SAR Section 2.6.4.3.1; Data Report I

Results - Rock Properties mYoung's moduli

  • 1.3 x 106 to 1.5 x 106 psi, non-friable rock
  • 0.20 x 106 to 0.21 x 106 psi, friable rock
  • Poisson's ratios
  • 0.22 to 0.37, non-friable rock
  • 0.23 to 0.31, friable rock From SAR Section 2.6.4.3.1; Data Report I

Rock Strength Parameters depend on:

Type of rock

"*

.Dolomite, sandstone

  • Friable rock

"*Scale of rock mass analyzed

  • Large scale

+Rock slide mass

  • Small scale

+ Rock wedges

Potential large scale slide mass From SAR Figure 2.6-49

Large-scale Slide Mass

"*Strength controlled by rock mass

+ Discontinuities (joints, bedding planes, faults)

  • Size of intact blocks

Effects of Vertical Ground Motions on Sliding Analysis

"* Inclination of slide planes (bedding planes)

"*Vertical motions more important for steeply dipping slide planes (greater than 30-40')

"*ISFSI clay beds typically dip less than 15'

"* Steepness of slope

"*Vertical motions more important for steeper slopes

"*ISFSI hillslope is about 3:1 (H:V) and the effect of steepness of slope is incorporated in the 2-D slope stability and dynamic response analyses

Effects of Vertical Ground Motions on Sliding Analysis m Material strength properties

"*More important for sandy material

"*Less important for clayey material

"*ISFSI slide plane material is clay beds

Ground Motion Considerations for Sliding Block Analysis

"* Direction of slide mass movements:

"* Occurs along claybeds

"* Claybeds are horizontal to sub-horizontal

"* Postulated slide mass movements are influenced by horizontal motions

"* Slide plane inclination:

"*Limited effect on computed displacement (less than 10%)

if the inclination is less than 20' based on Makdisi (1976) for sandy materials

"* For material similar to the ISFSI claybeds, the influence would be less

"*ISFSI claybeds typically dip less than 15'

Ground Motion Considerations for Sliding Block Analysis (cont'd)

"* Undrained shear strength of claybeds:

"* Controlled by long term overburden pressure

" Relatively insensitive to seismic loadings

"* Peak arrival time:

" Arrival time of horizontal peak is typically 1 to 3 seconds behind arrival of vertical peak based on near field recordings

"* During strong horizontal shaking, the energy (as measured by Aries Intensity) on the vertical component is typically 10% to 30% of the energy on the horizontal component

Ground Motion Considerations for Sliding Block Analysis (cont'd)

"* Standard of practice for seismic design of dams:

  • Evaluation of permanent displacement of embankment dams under seismic loading is based on horizontal component of the design motion (USBR, 1989)

"* Recent studies:

  • Study at Cal Tech indicated that vertical ground motions have limited impact on block movements based on numerical analysis and physical modeling Yan, et al. (1996)

Preliminary Site-Specific Study mEvaluate effect of vertical motions on computed yield acceleration mEvaluate effect of vertical motions on slide mass responses mIncorporating vertical ground motions resulted in displacements varying less than 10% from calculations based on horizontal component alone

Conclusions

  • The stability of the hillslope above the ISFSI pads was analyzed and the slopes have ample factors of safety under static conditions.

m The hillslope above the ISFSI site may experience small displacements when exposed to the design-basis earthquakes.

Conclusions (cont'd) mThe maximum seismic induced displacements could potentially be about 3 feet on the upper slope to about 1 to 2 feet on the lower slope.

m Mitigation measures will be implemented to minimize effects of the small displacements and protect the ISFSI facilities to perform their intended design functions.
