Content:
eviewer will verify that the loads and load combinations are consistent with those specified in Subsection II.3 of this SRP section. Loading conditions that are unique, and not specifically covered in Subsection II.3, are treated on a case-by-case basis. The reviewer will identify any deviations from the acceptance criteria for loads and load combinations that have been adequately justified. 4. Design and Analysis Procedures. The reviewer will verify that the applicant is committed to the design and analysis procedures delineated in Article NE-3000 of ASME Code, Section III, Division 1, Subsection NE. Any exceptions to these procedures will be reviewed and evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The areas of review contained in Subsection I.4 of this SRP section will be evaluated for conformance with the acceptance criteria. 3.8.2-24 Revision 3 - May 2010 5. Structural Acceptance Criteria. The reviewer will consider the limits on allowable stresses in the steel shell and its components and compare them with the acceptable limits specified in Subsection II.5 of this SRP section. If, the applicant proposes to exceed some of these limits for some of the load combinations and at some localized points of the structure, the reviewer will evaluate the justification, provided to show that the structural integrity of the containment will not be affected. 6. Materials, Quality Control, and Special Construction Techniques. The reviewer will compare the information provided on materials, quality control programs, and special construction techniques, if any, with that referenced in Subsection II.6 of this SRP section. If a material used is not covered by the ASME Code, the applicant needs to provide sufficient test and user data to establish the acceptability of the material. Similarly, the reviewer will evaluate any new quality control programs or construction techniques to ensure that no degradation of structural quality will occur that may affect the structural integrity of the
