REPORT DETAILS

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records and interviewed personnel to assess applicant performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, construction permit conditions, operating license application conditions, site procedures, and standards.

Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President of the United States on the public health risks of the coronavirus (COVID-19), inspectors were directed to begin teleworking. In addition, regional inspections were evaluated to determine if all or portion of the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be performed remotely. The activities discussed in this report were performed remotely and were conducted per the applicable IP.

SAFETY-RELATED ITEMS AND SERVICES DURING CONSTRUCTION Structural Concrete (IP 69020, Appendix B)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors conducted interviews and reviewed documents associated with structural concrete work to determine if:

  • structural concrete work and related quality assurance (QA) activities for Seismic Category I structures were performed in accordance with the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), construction specifications, drawings, and work procedures
  • the applicants system for preparing, reviewing, and maintaining records relative to structural concrete activities was functioning properly
  • records reflected work accomplishment consistent with specifications and procedures
  • the as-built condition of reinforced concrete structures met the specified design requirements, specifications, and drawings
  • the implementation of the quality assurance program relative to work activities associated with structural concrete was effective; and deviations from requirements were appropriately resolved

b. Observations and Findings

The inspectors reviewed a sample of procurement, installation, and inspection records to determine if structural concrete activities for the main production facility structure (FSTR)were accomplished in accordance with construction specifications, procedures, drawings, American Concrete Institute (ACI) 349-13, Code Requirements for Nuclear Safety Related Concrete Structures, and the quality assurance program description (QAPD). The inspectors evaluated the following structural concrete samples:

  • Central interior wall along column line G from elevation 0-0 to the roof
  • Mezzanine floor slab at elevation 22-0
  • Roof over the FSTR The inspectors reviewed the inspection plans developed for the receipt inspection of reinforcing steel and mechanical splices, and concrete placement. The inspectors reviewed these documents to determine if appropriate inspection attributes were defined and translated into quality control (QC) activities which could be documented in inspection reports and fabrication documents in accordance with QA implementing procedures. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the plans to determine if the inspection attributes met construction specification requirements and codes and standards, such as:
  • Chemical composition, physical, and dimensional properties of reinforcing steel and mechanical splices, as applicable, are verified to meet project specifications and applicable American Society for Testing and Material (ASTM) standards,
  • Reinforcing steel and mechanical splices are marked appropriately,
  • Concrete pre-placement, placement, and post-placement inspections are performed to assure as-built construction meets technical and quality requirements,
  • Hold points are established to verify quality requirements are being met,
  • In-process testing is specified at appropriate intervals, and
  • Records demonstrating as-built construction meets technical and quality requirements are generated and retained.

For the samples identified above, the inspectors reviewed receipt inspection reports to determine if the reinforcing steel conformed to the applicable construction specifications and design drawings. The inspectors reviewed a sample of material test reports to determine if the chemical composition and physical properties of the reinforcing steel met the applicable ASTM standard. The inspectors also reviewed the receipt inspection reports to determine if QC inspections were performed and material traceability was maintained from the supplier to receipt in accordance with QA implementing procedures.

The inspectors reviewed concrete pre-placement inspection records to verify if the inspection attributes were being verified prior to concrete placement. Specifically, the inspectors reviewed batch plant inspection records to determine if the concrete constituents and mix were being verified prior to placement and batch plant operations were performed in accordance with the construction specification. The inspectors also reviewed concrete pre-placement, reinforcing bar, and mechanical splicing inspection records to verify if the reinforcing steel and embedments, such as anchor bolts, water stops, or embedded plates, were installed in accordance with specifications, codes, drawings, and procedures, and records were completed in accordance with applicable procedures.

The inspectors reviewed concrete placement inspection records to verify if concrete in-process testing was being performed at appropriate intervals and inspection attributes were being verified in accordance with the construction specification, the commercial grade dedication plan, and applicable codes and standards.

The inspectors reviewed post-placement inspection records and concrete compressive strength test records for the central interior wall along column line G and the mezzanine slab to verify if concrete curing was being performed in accordance with the construction specification and the installed concrete met the acceptance criteria.

The inspectors reviewed qualification records for the QC inspectors that performed receipt inspections and installation inspections for the samples listed above. The inspectors reviewed these reports to determine if the inspectors were qualified for the activities they were performing, and to determine if they meet examination and proficiency requirements in accordance with QA implementing procedures.

No findings were identified.

c. Conclusions

The inspectors conducted interviews and reviewed documents related to structural concrete to determine if construction was accomplished in accordance with the construction permit; operating license application conditions; site procedures; and other applicable quality, technical, and regulatory requirements. The inspectors reviewed pre-placement, placement, and post-placement records for the interior central wall along column line G from elevation 0-0 to the roof, the mezzanine slab at elevation 22-0, and the main roof over the FSTR. No findings were identified.
