Content:
to 10 CFR Part 50 requires that applicants establish and maintain a quality assurance program (including design, testing, and records control) as outlined therein. SRP Section 3.8.4 provides guidance specifically related to design and testing of structural concrete and steel during the construction of nuclear power plants. Subsection II.2 of this SRP section cites Regulatory Guide 1.94, which in turn cites ANSI N45.2.5-1974 to satisfy, with exceptions, the requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. 3.8.4-19 DRAFT Rev. 2 - April 1996 Meeting these requirements provides added assurance that structures covered in this SRP section will meet the requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and thus perform their intended safety function.72 III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer selects and emphasizes material from the review procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. 1. Description of the Structures After the type of structure and its functional characteristics are identified, information on similar and previously licensed plants is obtained for reference. Such information, which is available in safety analysis reports and amendments of previous license applications, enables identification of differences for the case under review. These differences require additional scrutiny and evaluation. New and unique features that have not been used in the past are of particular interest and are thus examined in greater detail. The information furnished in the SAR is reviewed for completeness in accordance with the "Standard Format..." (Ref. 4)Regulatory Guide 1.70. A decision is then made with 73 regard to the sufficiency of the descriptive information provided. Any additional required information not provided is requested from the applicant at an early stage of the review process. 2. Applicable Codes, Standards, and Specifications The list of codes, standards, guides, and specifications is compared with the list in subsection II.2 of this SRP
