SRP section. If a material not used in previously licensed applications is utilized, the applicant is requested to provide sufficient test and user data to establish the acceptability of the material. Similarly, any new quality control programs or construction techniques are reviewed and evaluated to assureensure that 68 there will be no degradation of structural quality that might affect the structural integrity of the containment, the liner plate, and its anchorage system. 7. Testing and Inservice Surveillance Requirements The initial structural overpressure test program is reviewed and compared with that indicated as acceptable in subsection II.7 of this SRP section. Proposed deviations are considered on a case-by-case basis. Inservice surveillance programs, particularly for the prestressing tendons, if any, as presented in the technical specifications of the operating license, are similarly reviewed. In the ABWR and System 80+ design certification FSERs the Staff accepted an exemption to the 10 CFR 100, Appendix A requirement that all safety-related SSCs be designed to remain functional and within applicable stress and deformation limits when subjected to an OBE. The Staff reviewed the controlling load combinations and concluded that, in most cases, load combinations incorporating an OBE load do not control the design of concrete structures. As a result, the Staff concluded that there would be no reduction in the safety margin of concrete structures due to the elimination of the OBE as a design requirement.69 For standard design certification reviews under 10 CFR Part 52, the procedures above should be followed, as modified by the procedures in SRP Section 14.3 (proposed), to verify that the design set forth in the standard safety analysis report, including inspections, tests, analysis, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC), site interface requirements and combined license action items, meet the acceptance criteria given in subsection II. SRP Section 14.3 (proposed)
