Minutes / Structural Engineering 2 Meeting, January 22, 1988
. 1 Highlights
- 1. J. Costello, RES, in his opening remarks stated that the objective of the containment integrity progran is to provide NRC with a suite of reliable methods i.e., computational, analytical and empirical which can be used to predict the response of containment system when subjected to loadings beyond the design basis i.e., severe accidents and earthquakes beyond the SSE. The methods will be qualified by performing experiments on scale podels of containment structures and full-size electrical penetration assemblies and a personnel airlock.
- 2. D. Horschel, SNLA, presented an overview of the test and results of the test and post-test inspections. The 1:6 scale reinforced concrete containment is among the largest and most complex structures of its type tested. The containment was designed and built by United Engineers and Constructors to Section III Division 1 and 2 sections of the ASME code and has a design pressure of 46 psig. The containment is a right circular cylinder with an inside diameter of 22 feet and is capped by a hemispherical dome. With its 40-inch thic' basemat it has an overall height of over 37 feet. Features of the containment include four major penetratiens (two equipment hatches and two personnel airlocks) as well i
i as several smaller penetrations that pass both separately and in clus-l l ters through the containment wall.
l
[
In order to properly assess the composite structure, several hundred transducers were embedded in the concrete wall. A total of about 1200 l

Minutes / Structural Engineering 3 Meeting, January 22, 1988 tranducers i.e., strain gages, displacement transducers, thermocouples, pressure gages, inclinometers, were installed. In addition, video cameras, still cameras, track transducers and acoustic detection systems were available.
As the containment was pressurized (nitrogen gas) many phenomena were observed. At 125 psig, some leakage was thought to be coming from equipment hatch 3. The seal in this hatch was thermally aged before the test so that some leakage could be realized during the test. Leakage noise was monitored and did increase at higher pressure, it is unclear now whether leakage was coming through the seals or through the liner; during post-test inspection two small holes in the liner near equipment hatch B were found. Leakage was noticed coming from the vicinity of ec,uipment hatch A at 138 psig and the ovalization of the sleeve of equipment hatch A was noticeable at 143 psig. Displacement measurements indicated nearly i inch increase in the horizontal diameter. During the final stages of pressurization, the uplift of the basemat from the concrete work mat was very noticeeble. The amount of uplift was about 3/8 inch. Cracks that were visible from the low pressure testing became much wider, some as wide as about 1/8 inch. The cracks followed seismic bars (angled at 45 degrees) as well as the hoop and meridonal directions. In the lower sections of the containment few cracks were obvious. The test was terminated when leakage became large. Nitrogen gas was being delivered at a rate of 4000 cubic feet per minute and the pressure in the containment was decreasing slightly, maximum pressure was about 145 psig (leak rate was greater than 5000% mass / day). A data scan was initiated (actual model pressure was about 141 to 142 psig at
Minutes / Structural Engineering 4 Meeting, January 22, 1988
< this time) and completed before the decision to discontinue testing was made.
i Post-test inspection inside the containment revealed a tear running in a vertical direction by the entire insert plate edge about one inch from it. The tear was about 20 inches long. Upon closer inspection, many small tears on areas of distress were found on the liner near other insert plates. Preliminary inspection indicate that the liner near the basemat cylinder wall junction shows no sign of severe distress.
D. Horschel than presented a brief discussion on possible future options with the further use of the 1:6 scale model containment, including NDT and sectioning, separate effects tests, and retesting of the containment.
- 3. D. Clauss, SNLA, discussed the coordination of analyses of the 1:6 scale reinforced concrete containment indel. The pre-test analysis objectives were to obtain insights that could be used in planning instrurentation and conducting the test, to assess how accurately blind predictions matched actual performance, and to evaluate uncertainties in the analysis. Thepost-testanalysisobjectivesare1)tounderstand the limit states governing model failure, 2) recomend additional tests to investigate other potential limit states or to generate other data needed to validate analytical tools and 3) propose a comprehensive approach, which addresses all credible limit states for predicting the behavior of reinforced concrete containment buildings subject to severe accident loads. The results of the pretest analyses are reported in i

, NUREG/CR-4913, issued in May 1987 (which was completed before the high 4
pressure test). Predicted capacities for the model varied from 130 to 190 psig. Ten licensing and research oraanizations from the U.S. and Europe made the analyses on a voluntary basis (no cost to the NRC). A table of failure predictions for the 1:6 scale containment model for the participating organizations is attached. The table also shows the predicted limit mechanism.
Meetings of the participating organizatiens have taken place after the model containment test. The conclusions thus far are 1) global measures of containment response i.e., displacerents, free field strain, can be predicted accurately. 2) localized behavior, which may control ,
containment failure, is more difficult to predict, and 3) it is not valid to assume that the liner is perfectly bonded to the concrete.
4 J. Weatherby, SNLA, discussed the pretest analysis and comparison of predictions and results conducted at SNLA. SNLA employed both nonlinear mer.brane analysis and finite element (ABAQUS) code in their compu-tations. Each of the following events was assumed to indicate a loss of l containment integrity:
. The stress level in the reinforcing steel exceeds 99ksi at any location,
. The equivalent plastic strain in the liner exceeds 15% at any location.
. The transverse shear stress at any location exceeds the shear strength predicted by the empirical relation developed by l
~
o Minutes / Structural Engineering 6 MGeting, January 22, 1988 Aoyagi et al. (The shear-friction model was also used to
. estimateshearstrength).
t ShtA failure predictions were as follows:
. Elastic-plastic analysis: -failure pressure of 170 psig and ,
the failure mode is by bending failure at the cylinder /basemat juncture.
. Cracking analysis: failure pressure of 180 psig and the failure mode is that the ultimate strength of the hoop bars in the cylinder midsection is exceeded. j i
ShlA stated that difficulties in the failure prediction are rnany. Among the major difficulties are the following:
f 6
. Axisymmetric finite element models neglected strain concen-1 trations in the liner caused by penetrations and the liner anchorage system.
. The 3-D equipment hatch model neglected the strain concen-trations caused by the liner anchorage system and slippage between the concrete wall and liner.
. Uncertainty exists in the failure criterion for liner tearing.
1 Conclusions for the analysis of the piping penetration are as follows:
When the stud anchors are neglected, the liner strains are too i snall to cause tears to develop.
?
____- _ _,i
Minutes / Structural Engineering 7 Meeting, January 22, 1988
. . The primary mechanism that initiated the liner tear was the strain concentration caused by the stud anchors.
- 5. D. Horschel, SNLA, discussed the CEGB's prestressed containment model. The 1:10 scale prestressed containment model test is sponsored-by the Central Electricity Generating Board (CEGB). It is designed by Nuclear Design Associates and construction and testing will be done by Taylor Woodrow. This contairment will be a 1:10 scale model of the sizewell 'B' centainment structure. The model consists of one equipment hatch, two oersonnel airlocks, no liner and fabricated of mi-cro-concrete. Scaled steel areas rather than 1:1 bar and tendon re-placement will be employed. The start of design originated on October 1987. Start of construction should begin in February 1988 and com-pletion of testing should be by September 1988.
- 6. D. Clauss, SNLA, discussed the investigation of the leakage poten-tial of a personnel airlock. He stated that previous studies sponsored by the NRC have indicated that personnel airlocks have a high potential for leakage. In order to address this concern, a full size personnel airlock from a cancelled nuclear power plant (Callaway) was purchased and tested to hypothetical severe accident environments. The seal was 0
aged in-place at 330 F for about one week to simulate the combination of radiation and thermal aging to IEEE spec. Significant darrage to the seal was discovered after the aging process. Most obvious was a gross change in cross section of the seal. MARC finite element computer program was used to calculate sealing surface displacements and leak area. Test conclusions are as follows:
Minutes / Structural Engineering 8 Meeting, January 22, 1988
. Relative displacement of the sealing surfaces was small, a prcdicted by analysis. As a result, leakage did not occur at moderate temperatures even at very high pressure.
. With small deformatiens, t'he seal must be completely deteri-orated for leakage to occur.
. The seal temperature is significantly less than the contain-ment atmosphere temperature, f
- 7. M. Parks, SNLA, discussed the status of tests on seals and gaskets, inflatable seals and bellows used for containment penetrations. Tests have been performed on seals and gaskets and test results obtained.
Tests en inflatable seals and bellows are planned. The research budget ,
has been reduced and the latter two tests have not been funded for FY 1988. The final report for SNLA tests, which also includes a summary of
- the INEL tests on seals and gaskets (INEL final report was published in July 1987) has been written and is under final review.
All tests on seals and gaskets performed at SNLA and INFL have been cort pleted. Highlights of the test results are as follows:
All of the tested seals failed at more severe pressure and temperature conditions than predicted for the severe accidents i of PWR and BWR MK III containments.
Some of the tested seals failed at lower temperatures than predicted for the severe accidents of BWR MK I and MK !!

. Aging had little effect on the failure temperature of the seals.
. Flange rotation (0 to 12 degrees) had little effect on the failure temperature. However, the amount of seepage before failure we: graater for larger flange rotations. (basedon the results of INEL test only.)
It was suggested that the planned tests on bellows need to be reviewed by subcommittee members to determine its usefulness.
Subcomittee Action Dr. Siess stated that the SNLA personnel did an excellent job on the 1:6 scale model containment tests. A subcommittee report to the full ACRS at the February meeting is planned.
It was proposed that the subcommittee meet again, sometime soon, tn discuss the following matters not discussed at this meeting because of lack of time.
