ion, and QA, including installation and inspection of anchors (steel embedment) used for anchoring component and structural supports on concrete structures. • RG 1.217, “Guidance for Assessment of Beyond-Design-Basis Aircraft Impacts” (Ref. 8), describes considerations for aircrafts impacts for new nuclear power reactors. • NUREG-0800, “Standard Review Plan (SRP) for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition” (Ref. 9), provides guidance to the NRC staff in the review of safety analysis reports submitted as part of a license application. DG-1283, Page 3 • American Society of Civil Engineers/Structural Engineering Institute, ASCE/SEI 37-14, “Design Loads on Structures during Construction,” (Ref. 10), describes the minimum design requirements for construction loads, load combinations, and load factors affecting buildings and other structures that are under construction. It addresses partially completed structures as well as temporary support and access structures used during construction. The loads specified are suitable for use either with strength design criteria, such as ultimate strength design and load and resistance factor design, or with allowable stress design criteria. The loads are applicable to all conventional construction methods. Purpose of Regulatory Guides The NRC issues RGs to describe to the public methods that the staff considers acceptable for use in implementing specific parts of the agency’s regulations, to explain techniques that the staff uses in evaluating specific problems or postulated events, and to provide guidance to applicants. Regulatory guides are not substitutes for regulations and compliance with them is not required. Methods and solutions that differ from those set forth in RGs will be deemed acceptable if they provide a basis for the findings required for the issuance or continuance of a permit or license by the Commission.
