mines the approved values of forces and loads that the applicant derives from these parameters to assureensure that they are consistent with those contained in 17 18 SRP Sections 2.3.1 and 2.3.2.19 2. After the acceptability of the site-related parameters is established, the reviewer proceeds with the evaluation of the structural aspects of wind design. The procedures used by the applicant to transform wind velocities into effective pressures are reviewed and compared with those procedures delineated in subsection II of this plan. 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) contains procedures for the review of certified design material (CDM) for the standard design, including the site parameters, interface criteria, and ITAAC.20 DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 3.3.1-4 IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that sufficient information has been provided to satisfy the requirements of this SRP section, and concludes that his the evaluation is sufficiently complete and adequate to 21 support the following type of conclusive statement to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report (SER):22 The staff concludes that the plant design is acceptable and meets the requirements of General Design Criterion 2. This conclusion is based on the following: The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 2 with respect to the capability of the structures to withstand design wind loading so that their design reflects— 1. appropriate consideration for the most severe wind recorded for the site with an appropriate margin; 2. appropriate combinations of the effects of
