respectively, also need to be considered. Items to be considered include assumptions on boundary conditions, transient and localized loads, and shrinkage and cracking of concrete. C. For steel structures, the procedures are in accordance with ANSI/AISC N690-1994, including Supplement 2 (2004). D. Computer programs are acceptable if the validation provided follows the procedures delineated in Subsection II.4.E of SRP Section 3.8.1. E. The design report is considered acceptable if it contains the information specified in Appendix C to this SRP section. F. The structural audit is conducted in accordance with the provisions of Appendix B to this SRP section. G. The design of the spent fuel pool and racks is considered acceptable when it meets the criteria of Appendix D to this SRP section. H. Consideration of dynamic lateral soil pressures on embedded walls is acceptable if the lateral earth pressure loads are evaluated for two cases. These are (1) lateral earth pressure equal to the sum of the static earth pressure plus the dynamic earth pressure calculated in accordance with ASCE 4-98, Section 3.5.3.2, and (2) lateral earth pressure equal to the passive earth pressure. If these methods are shown to be overly conservative for the cases considered, then the staff reviews alternative methods on a case-by-case basis. For earth retaining walls, the guidance in ASCE 4-98 Sections 3.5.3.1 through 3.5.3.3 is acceptable. I. The design of masonry walls is considered acceptable when it meets the requirements of Appendix A of this SRP. J. The design of structures that use modular construction methods are reviewed and evaluated on a case-by-case basis. NUREG/CR-6486 provides guidance related to the use of modular construction methods. Appendix B to NUREG/CR-6486 includes proposed modular construction review criteria. 5. Structural Acceptance Criteria. For each of the loading combinations delineated in Subsection II.3 of this SRP section, the structural acceptance criteria appear
