Content:
ce with Articles CC-4000 and CC-5000 of the Code, including the following: Examination of the materials, including tests to determine the physical properties of concrete, reinforcing steel, mechanical splices, the liner plate and its anchors, and the prestressing system, if any; placement of concrete; and erection tolerances of the liner plate, reinforcement, and prestressing systems. Special, new, or unique construction techniques, if proposed, such as slip forming, are reviewed on a case-by-case basis to determine their effects on the structural integrity of the completed containment. 7. Testing and Inservice Surveillance Requirements The preoperational structural testing program for the completed containment and for individual components, such as personnel and equipment locks and hatches, is reviewed, including the objectives of the test program and acceptance criteria, with emphasis on the extent of compliance with Article CC-3000 of the Code. Inservice surveillance programs, such as the periodic surveillance and inspection of the prestressing tendons, if any, are also reviewed, including the applicable technical specifications, at the operating license stage. Special testing and inservice surveillance requirements proposed for new or previously untried design approaches are also reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Review Interfaces11 The SEBECGB coordinates other branches' evaluations that interface with structural 12 engineering aspects of the review, as follows: 1. Determination of structures which are subject to a quality assurance program in accordance with the requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 is performed by the Mechanical Engineering Branch (MEB)(EMEB) as part of its primary review 13 responsibility for SRP Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. The SEBECGB will perform its 14 review of safety-related structures on that basis. 2. Determination of pressure loads from high-energy lines located in safety-related structures other than containment is performed by
