- 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of this review is to provide a technical evaluation of the Licensee's response to Items 2 and 3 of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's 7
(NRC) IE Bulletin 80-11, " Masonry Wall Design" (1] , which required Licensees to present reevaluation criteria with justifications and to submit a written report upon completion of the reevaluation program. The evaluation included a review of any Licensee-proposed modifications of masonry walls and the proposed methods, procedures, and repair schedules. 1.2 PLANT-SPECIFIC BACKGROUND 1 In response to IE sunetin 80-n, Arkansas Power & Light Company (the
.I Licensee) provided the NRC with documents describing the status of masonry wans at Arkansas Muclear One Units 1 and 2 [2]. As a result of the review of these documents, the NRC sent a letter dated January 15, 1982 requesting additional information (3]. In response to this request, the Licensee forwarded answers [4] to all questions raised.
j Unita 1 and 2, respectively, have 75 and 104 safety-related masonry walls that were classified as follows: 1 i Unit 1 Unit 2 j 1. Wans supporting Seismic Category I pipes 19 8 1 2. Walls supporting Seismic Category I attachments Ia 1 other than pipes 9 19 ia i 3. Walls in the proximity of safety-related system 47 77 ,! 75 104 l i*
'} Wall attachments generally are limited to small piping supports, electrical conduits and boxes, instrument lines, and ventilation duct supports.
, j None of the walls identified were load-bearing walls supporting the building structure in the vertical direction or acting as shear walls in the

horizontal direction. Generally, the walls served as shielding and fire protection devices. 1 Most of the block walls are shielding walls constructed with heavyweight hollow concrete blocks or cells; all cells are filled with grout. Continuous
; reinforcement is placed in every other cell. Walls that do not have a I .
shielding function are constructed with standard blocks in which only cells having reinforcement, plumbing, or other embedded items are grouted. Typical concrete block wall details are shown in Figures 1 and 2 of Appendix
, D. Vertical reinforcing steel consists of one No. 5 bar of 16-inch spacing in ]
the center of single-wythe walls and one No. 5 bar at 16-inch spacing near each face of multi-wythe walls. Horizontal reinforcement consists of a bond beam with I four No. 4 bars at 48-inch spacing in single-wythe walls, and an identical bond beam at each face of multi-wythe walls. In addition, joint reinforcing, consis-
; ting of extra-heavy Dur-o-Wall truss steel bars, is placed in alternate horizontal ) joints (16-inch spacing) of shielding walls and in every horizontal joint (8-inch I spacing) of other walls. At shielding walls, No. 2 steel tie bars hooked around .I ,] vertical reinforcing bars are placed at staggered 32-inch spacing horizontally ] and 16-inch spacing vertically. Figure 3 of Appendix D illustrates this arrange-k ment and indicates a typical running bonded construction of masonry walls at the -1 plant.
Materials specified for wall construction are as follows: o Concrete blocks - AS M C90, Grade PI. Heavyweight units cured and oven-dryed. 3 l o Mortar - ASM C476, Type PL, 2000 psi compressive strength . l at 28 days.
. o Grout -

f Dj The basic documents used for guidance in this review were SES Criteria for Safety-Related Masonry Wall Evaluation," [5] developed by the Structural Engineering Branch (SEB) of '.he NRC (attached as Appendix A to this report) , the Uniform Building 1 Code [6], and ACI 531-79 [7]. e In general, the materials, testing, analysis, design construction, and inspection of safety-related concrete masonry walls should conform to the SEB criteria [5]. For operating plants, the loads and load combinations for qualifying the masonry walls should conform to the appropriate specifications in the FSAR for the plant. Allowable stresses are specified in Reference 7 I l and the uppropriate increase factors for abnormal and extreme environmental loads are given in Reference 5.

'I TER-C5506-161 ~ , 3. TECHNICAL EVALUATION ji This evaluation is based on the Licensee's earlier response [2] and ; subsequent response [4] to the request for additional information [3]. The j Licensee's criteria [2] were evaluated with regard to design and analysis i methods, loads and load combinations, allowable stresses, construction i specification materials, and relevant test data. In addition, the Licensee's J ?,
modifications and response to the request for additional information [ Appendix { B for Unit 1 and Appendix C for Unit 2] will be evaluated. 3.1 EVALUATION OF LICENSEE'S CRITERIA i The Licensee has reevaluated the masonry walls using the following ' 'l criteria [21: I j o Allowable stresses for analysis of masonry walls were based on Uniform j Building Code (UBC) rpecifications (6].
! o Imads and load combinations used were those specified in the plant
{ Safety Analysis Report.
't j o Boundary conditions were determined by considering one-way or two-way a spans with hinged, fixed, or free edges, as appropriate.
l j o A 3% damping for operating basis earthquake (OBE) and 54 for design j basis earthquake (DBE) were assumed. t
! o A collar joint strength of zero was assumed.
In general, the Licensee's criteria are in compliance with the SEB criteria [5]. The Licensee has responded to all of the questions (listed in Appendix B for Unit 1 and Appendix C for Unit 2) in the request for additional { information [3]. These responses [4] are reviewed below: j Question 1 (applicable to Units 1 and 2) In response to this question, the Licensee clarified that the frequency 1 of concrete masonry walls is dependent on the type of analysis (one-way beam l or two-way plate) , boundary conditions, and section movement of inertia, as i t ia j g 1 Ed Franklin Research Center j
- r- en om. r- u.
f , d j TER-C5506-161 5 well as the wall dimensions. m is explains why the frequencies of walls with comparable dimensions vary widely. The Licensee's response is considered
- j adequate.
1 h j Question 2 (applicable to Units 1 and 2) i j In this question, the Licensee was requested to justify the use of the average acceleration rather than the envelope of the response spectra for , walls supported by two floors. Se Licensee considered the seismic response 9 -{ of a simply supported, uniform beam simulating a strip of the wall panel with .+ j unit width to justify the use of the average acceleration. The equation of
'l motion of an undamped, simply supported beam was solved, and the results t
indicate that the use of the average of two-floor acceleration response 1
; spectra to calculate the modal response of a wall panel is satisfactory. ; Question 3 (applicable to Units 1 and 2) 1 In response to this question, the Licensee conducted a parametric study l on walls with various thicknesses. The top and bottom edges of the walls were l assumed to be fixed so that the out-of-plane interstory drift effect can be evaluated. The resulting stresses indicated that this effect is insignificant
-{ as compared to the capacity of the masonry walls. The response is considered j adequate. t 4
) Question 4 (applicable to' Units 1 and 2)
To demonstrate the adequacy of using only the fundamental mode in the analysis, the Licensee selected two sample walls in order to analyze the effects of higher modes. One wall was treated as a cantilever beam, and the I other wall was treated as a plate with four simply supported edges. The I i dynamic analysis was carried out using computer program STARDYNE. The resulting moment and shear at the center and at the base of these walls were
; extracted for the fundamental mode and multi-mode SRSS combination. The i, comparison illustrated that the fundamental mode results art less than those f
calculated using SRSS combinations by only 0.15% for moments and 1.97% for i

In response to this question, the Licensee has provided a description of the bracing system installed for two Unit 2 cantilever walls and indicated
,. that out-of-plane drift effects due to bracing are negligible. This response is satisfactory.
Question 6 (Unit 2, Appendix C, or question 5 of Unit 1, Appendix B)
~
In response to this question, the Licensee provided brief descriptions of j several techniques used in the analysis:
~1 l
- a. Verification by Curves 1
; The purpose of this method is to determine the adequacy of Seismic i Class I block walls by grouping masonry walls with similar parameters j such as boundary conditions, floor elevations, and wall thicknesses j and heights. The curves for different wall groups (types) were generated using the criteria presented in the original submittal I [2]. The following types of curves have been generated: vertically } spanned beam, horizontally spanned beam, and plate. The wall is 8
considered adequate if it falls within the allowable range of the f appropriate curves. Otherwise, a more refined analysis is used. l t b. Effective Inertia Analysis 1i I For some walls, the effective moment of inertia was used to account for the partially cracked condition. An iterative procedure was l
- introduced to obtain the effective moment of inertia.
j I
- c. Dynamic Analysis j' The dynamic analysis was used to verify those walls which were not
; qualified by simple static analysis. In the dynamic analysis, a modal response was obtained considering multi-mode combination.
,j The Licensee's response to this question is intended to clarify several '4 l j techniques employed in the analysis and is considered to be adequate. I 1 ' l ' l 1 1 s O ~7~ ll ; 10 Franklin Research Center 4 Onaman of The Frarmen insatute
TER-C5506-161 t Question 7 (Unit 2, Appendix C, or question 6 of Unit 1, Appendix B) In response to this question, the Licensee clarified that the stresses in the in-plane direction due to seismic loads were insignificant since none of the masonry walls at the plant were either load-bearing or shear walls. Seismic loads due to out-of-plane direction were combined absolutely with , vertical seismic loads in the analysis. The Licensee clarified that equipment
, and pipe weights were accounted for in the analysis. The Licensee's response '
a i to this question is adequate. 4
-l 1 Question 8 (Unit 2, Appendix C, or question 7 of Unit 1, Appendix B)
In this response, the Licensee provided values for allowable stresses in axial compression, bearing, and tension parallel and normal to the bed joint. 1 These allowables are satisfactory because they are in compliance with ACI 531-79 codes. Furthermore, the Licensee clarified that all seismic Category I masonry block walls for the plant are reinforced. Thus, the allowables given-l. were used only to indicate if the wall were cracked or uncracked at the bed { joint. This clarification is cor.sidered adequate. I i j Question 9 (Unit 2, Appendix C, or question 8 of Unit 1, Appendix B) l j The Licensee indicated in the original submittal [2] that an increase factor of 1.67 was used for shear and tension parallel and normal to the bed { joint, instead of 1.5 for shear and tension parallel to the bed joint and 1.3
] for tension normal to the bed joint as specified in the SEB criteria [5] . In ej response to this question, the Licensee indicated that ACI 531 code allowable .
a
; stresses [ Reference 7, Chapter 10.1 of Commentaryj are generally associated j with a factor of safety of 3. It is identified, however, that all masonry walls at this plant are reinforced; hence, the increase factor for tensile . stresses does not apply to this plant.
- t In addition, it is identified that none of the walls of this plant are used as shear walls; thus, the increase factor for shear stress is not applicable to this plant.
; This question has been resolved satisfactorily. N.

TER-C5506-161 I Question 10 (Unit 2, Appendix C, or question 9 of Unit 1, Appendix B) In this question, the Licensee was requested to indicate the present i status of waus which were inaccessible and excluded from the original field d survey. Four walls of Unit 1 were involved in this case. The Licensee indicated that, for walls 6-B-44 and 6-B-42, a field survey win be performed f
,; during the present unit outage and, should the survey determine anything which would require further attention, NRC will be notified. Wan 4-B-66 is in a high radiation area (3 Rea minimum), and based on a drawing review and previous analysis, it has been determined that the potential radiation exposure does not warrant a survey of this wall. Wall 4-B-169 is inside a closed pipe chase and will never be accessible without significant removal of existing structure. No survey is planned for this waH.
For Unit 2, the inaccessible walls win be surveyed in the next refueling j outage. ALARA reviews win be performed to ensure that radiation exposure is
! minimized. -i However, in a conference ca n with the NRC on June 30, 1982, the Licensee informed the NRC that walls 6-B-42 and 6-B-44 of Unit 1 have been surveyed.
j For walls 4-B-66 and 4-B-169, the Licensee indicated that drawing reviews show no substantial items attached to these wans, and that the analysis demonstrated that these walls satisfy the design criteria. For Unit 2, the
.] Licensee will survey all inaccessible wan s beginning September 1982. Again, analysis showed that these walls satisfy the design criteria.
l The response to this question is considered adequate. 3.2 EVALUATION OF LICENSEE"S APPROACH TO WALL MODIFICATIONS The Licensee has completed modifications for two walls at Unit 2. A ' simple bracing system was designed and installed for these waus and the reanalysis indicated that modifications ' brought the responses of these walls within the acceptable level. Incations and configurations of these bracing systems are shown in Figures 1 and 2 of Appendix E. The Licensee's approach with regard to wall modifications is satisfactory. i 4 l M Franidin Research Center A c -n a n. n.n n m 4

! SEB CRITERIA FOR SAFETY-RELATED t4A50NRY WALL EVALUATION l
I The purpose of this appendix is to provide minimum design considerations and criteria for the review of safety-related masonry' walls, \ .I 1. General Requirements '.l'
', 3e materials, testing, analysis, design, construction, and inspection ! related*to the design and construction of safety-related concrete masonry ] walls should conform to the applicable requirements contained in Uniform Building Code - 1979, unless specified otherwise,' by the provisions to this criteria.
The use of other industrial codes, such 'sa ACI-531, ATC-3, or NCMA, is also acceptable. However, when the provisions of these codes are less conser-
.fj vative than the corresponding provisions of these interia criteria, their ; use should be justified on a case-by-case basis.
( ~
?. In new construction, no unreinforced masonry walls.will be permitted.
For operating plants, existing unreinforced walls will be evaluated by the provisions of these criteria. Plants applying for operating licenses i i which have already built unreinforced masonry walls will be evaluated on i a case-by-case basis. 1 I 2. Loads and Load Combinations
- i The loads and load combinations shall include consideration of normal loads, severe environmental loads, extreme er.vironmental load, and abnorinal loads.-
8 Specifically, for operating plants, the load combinations provided in the l plant's FSAR shall govern. For operating license applications, the following
} load combinations shall apply (for definition of load tems, see SRP 1 Section 3.8.4, subsection II.3). -

{ j considering these loads, local section strength capacities may be exceeded under these concentrated loads, provided there will be no j loss of function of any safety related system. d Both cases of L having its full value or being completely absent should d be checked. . 1 3. Allowable Stresses 4
< Allowable stresses provided in ACI-531-79, as supplemented by the following modifications / exceptions, shall apply.
(a) When wind or seismic loads (CBE) are. considered in the loading combin-ations, no increase in the allowable stresses is permitted. (b) Use of allowable stresses corresponding to special inspection category shall be substantiated by demonstration of compliance with the inspec-tion requirements of the NRC, criteria. ~ (c) When tension perpendicular to bed joints is used in qualifying the unreinforced masonry walls, the allowable value will be justified by test program or other means pertinent to the plant and loacing conai- ~ tiens. For reinforced masonry walls, all the. tensile stresses will be essisted by reinforcement. (d) Fot load conditions which represent extreme environmental, abnormal, !- abnormal / severe environmental, and abnormal / extreme environ = ental conditions, the allcwable working stress may be multiplied by the factors shown in the following table: r i 3.8.4-20 Rev. 0 - July 1981 l~ A-2 Jb Franklin Research Center 4 on on or n .

(c) Damping values to be used for dynamic analysis shall be those for
,i reinforced concrete given in Regulatory Guide 1.61. . (d) In general, for operating plants, the seismic analysis and ,, ' Category I structural requirements of FSAR shall apply. For other plants, corresponding SRP requirements shall apply. The seismic analysis shall account for the variations and uncertainties in mass, i materials, and other pertinent parameters used. -1 (e) The an'alysis should consider both in plane and out-of plane loads.
(f) Interstory drift effects should be considered. . (g) In new construction, no unreinforced masonry wall is permitted; also,
, all grout in concrete masonry walls shall be compared by vibration, t
l (h) for masonry shear walls, the minimum reinforcement requirements of p ACI-531 shall apply.
] (f) Special construction (e.g., multiwythe, comoosite) or other, items ,, not covered by the cooe shall be reviewed on a case-by-case basis for their acceptance.
(j) Licensees or appifcants shall submit QA/QC information, if available, j , for staff review.
