ould be conducted to demonstrate that with the maximum allowable flaw size (cracked button heads, wedge plates, wedges, and anchor nuts), the specific components will exhibit the required strength and ductility under the lowest anticipated temperatures. 6. CC-2438.4 Permanent Coating Material The coating manufacturer should provide certified test data verifying the properties listed in CC-2438.4.1, “Properties of Permanent Coatings,” for corrosion prevention of prestressing systems. Additionally, the coating manufacturer should provide certified qualification test data for the tests specified in CC-2438.4.2, “Analysis of Permanent Coatings.” The coating manufacturer should also supply with each shipment a certified test report with an analysis of the properties specified in CC-2438.4.2. 7. CC-2463 Type and Number of Performance Tests [Tendon System] In addition to following CC-2463, any system of prestressing should be subjected to a sufficient number of tests to establish adequacy for its qualification and use. Variations within the tolerance limits of the construction specification for material properties and geometry of anchorages and tendons should be realistically and adequately represented in the system testing. The applicant or licensee should include a description of the test program for qualification of the tendon system, including a justification of the adequacy of number of tests performed. 8. CC-3000 DESIGN Design and analysis procedures for structural portions of the containment, and specified allowable limits for stresses and strains, should be in accordance with Article CC-3000 of the Code, with the following additional regulatory guidance positions: a. The specified loads and load combinations are acceptable if found to be in accordance with Article CC-3000 of the Code, with the exceptions listed below to Table CC-3230-1. (1) Hydrodynamic loads resulting from LOCA and/or SRV actuation for boiling-water reactor concrete containments should be
