Probability-Based Evaluation of Degraded Reinforced Concrete Components in Nuclear Power Plants
This report describes the research performed to address concerns related to aging degradation of reinforced concrete structures at nuclear power plants (NPPs). The aging effects due to reinforced concrete degradation mechanisms are studied in order to develop analytical methods and degradation acceptance limits for concrete flexural and shear wall members. The focus of this phase of the research program is to perform a probability-based evaluation of degraded reinforced concrete members. The research effort developed fragility modeling procedures for undegraded and degraded reinforced concrete structural components subjected to earthquake ground motions. These quantitative methods provide a basis for evaluating reinforced concrete structures in nuclear plants for continued service and for developing guidelines for in-service inspections and repair. The probability-based degradation acceptance limits that are developed can be used as a tool for making risk-informed decisions regarding degradation of reinforced concrete members.
