ated for conformance with acceptance criteria contained in Subsection II.4 of this SRP section. 5. Structural Acceptance Criteria. The reviewer examines the limits on allowable stresses and strains in the concrete, reinforcement, the liner plate, and its anchors and in components of the prestressing system, if any, and compares them with the acceptable limits referenced in Subsection II.5 of this SRP section. If the applicant proposes to exceed some of these limits for some of the load combinations and at some localized points on the structure, the reviewer evaluates the justification provided to show that the structural integrity of the containment will not be affected. 3.8.1-23 Revision 4 - September 2013 6. Materials, Quality Control, and Special Construction Techniques. The reviewer evaluates the information provided on materials, quality control programs, and special construction techniques, if any, and compares to ensure that it meets the acceptance criteria referenced in Subsection II.6 of this SRP section. If the applicant is utilizing a material not used in previously licensed applications, the applicant needs to provide sufficient test and user data to establish the acceptability of the material. Similarly, the reviewer evaluates any new quality control programs or construction techniques to ensure that 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 reviewer examines the initial structural overpressure test program and compares it with that indicated as acceptable in Subsection II.7 of this SRP section. Proposed deviations are considered on a case- by-case basis. The review of inservice surveillance programs, including those for the prestressing tendons, if any, as presented in the technical specifications of the operating license, proceeds in a similar manner. These surveillance programs
