Content:
cifications cited in this SRP section provide acceptable engineering criteria to accomplish that function. Meeting these requirements and criteria provide assurance that the internal structures of the containment will perform their intended safety function with sufficient margin when subjected to LOCA loads in combination with other applicable loads. 3.8.3-31 Revision 2 - March 2007 7. Compliance with 10 CFR 50, appendix B, requires that applicants establish and maintain a quality assurance program for the design, construction, and operation of SSCs. SRP Section 3.8.3 provides guidance specifically related to design, construction, testing and inservice surveillance of structural concrete and steel of containment internal structures. Subsection II.2 of this SRP section cites ACI 349, with additional guidance provided by RG 1.142 and 1.199; ASME Code, Section III, Division 1, Subsection NE, and ASME Code, Section III, Division 2, Subsection CC, with additional guidance provided by RG 1.57 and 1.136, respectively; ANSI/AISC N690-1994 including Supplement 2 (2004); and other regulatory guides to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B. Meeting these requirements and criteria provide assurance that structures covered in this SRP section will meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B and thus perform their intended safety function. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. These review procedures are based on the identified SRP acceptance criteria. For deviations from these acceptance criteria, the staff should review the applicant’s evaluation of how the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable method of complying with the relevant NRC requirements identified in Subsection II. 1. Description of the Internal Structures. After the type of structure and its functional characteristics are identified, information on similar and previously licensed plants is
