DRAFT Rev. 2 - April 1996 3.8.4-50 APPENDIX G TO SRP SECTION 3.8.4 DYNAMIC LATERAL SOIL PRESSURES ON EARTH RETAINING WALLS AND EMBEDDED WALLS OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANT STRUCTURES139 INTRODUCTION In the design of earth retaining walls and embedded exterior walls of nuclear power plant structures, it is important to include the loads due to seismically induced lateral soil pressures. Standard Review Plan (SRP) Section 2.5.4, which deals with the stability of subsurface materials and foundations, does not provide specific review criteria regarding acceptable procedures to determine the dynamic lateral soil pressures. However, SRP Section 2.5.4 contains a generic statement that the applicant should satisfy the requirements of applicable codes and standards in designing the structures, systems, and components (SSCs) (in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a). In addition, SRP Section 2.5.4 states that state-of-the-art methods are to be used to design the structures. Section 3.5.3 of American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 4-86 ("Seismic Analysis of Safety Related Nuclear Structures and Commentary on Seismic Analysis of Safety Related Nuclear Structures," New York, NY, 1986), which is currently being revised by ASCE, identifies certain analytical methods to be used to establish dynamic lateral soil pressures for the design of retaining walls or structures
