s. This SRP section provides guidance specifically related to the design, construction, testing, and inservice surveillance of structural concrete and steel in nuclear power plants. Subsection II.2 of this SRP section cites ACI 349, with additional guidance provided by RG 1.142, ANSI/AISC N690-1994, including Supplement 2 (2004), and RGs 1.127 and 1.160 to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B. Meeting these requirements provides added assurance that structures covered in this SRP section will meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B and thus perform their intended safety function. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES 3.8.4-16 Draft Revision 4 – December 2012 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 Structures. After the type of structure and its functional characteristics are identified, the staff obtains information on similar and previously licensed plants for reference. Such information, which is available in SARs and amendments of previous license applications, enables identification of differences for the case under review. These differences require additional scrutiny and evaluation. New and unique features that have not been used in the past are of particular interest and are thus examined in greater detail. The reviewer evaluates the information furnished in the SAR for completeness in accordance with RG 1.70 for a CP or an OL (for applications submitted in accordance with 10 CFR Part 50) or RG 1.206 for a DC or a COL (for application submitted in accordance with 10 CFR Part 52). 2.
