Savannah River Site production reactor safety analysis report. K production reactor
This section provides the structural criteria for the K-Area buildings that are common to Seismic Category I structures. Exceptions to this criteria for specific buildings are given in Sections 3.8.1 through 3.8.4. The original SRS buildings and structures were designed and constructed before current nuclear codes or standards were developed. However, to withstand a bomb attack, a blast-resistant classification and loading were imposed in the structural criteria. The blast-resistant construction of Buildings 105 and 108 provides significant resistance to earthquake and tornado conditions. In fact, this premise was the basis for qualifying the structures classified as Seismic Category I when the buildings were designed and constructed in the 1950s. A classification of buildings and structures according to the blast and seismic resistance criterion is presented in Table 3.8-1. Knowledge gained in seismic technology since the 1950s has resulted in methods and techniques to design and qualify structures and to develop seismic loading for equipment and piping within those structures. Many seismic analyses of SRS buildings and structures have applied the emerging seismic technologies at various levels of sophistication. A review of seismic analyses and qualifications of the K-reactor building, stack building, cooling water reservoir structures, and process effluent sump structure is required to confirm that these structures can resist the postulated design basis earthquake (DBE). If the capacity of a structure to withstand the DBE cannot be confirmed from the review, additional analysis or design modifications are required. Such actions are governed by the Interim Seismic Program. The seismic design basis for the new evaluations is provided in Section 3.7.2.
