EPRI/NRC workshop on nuclear power plant reevaluation to quantify seismic margins: proceedings
A three-day workshop on nuclear power plant reevaluation to quantify seismic margins was held in San Francisco on October 15-17, 1984. The workshop was cosponsored by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Electric Power Research Institute. The primary objective of the workshop was to develop technical strategies by which utilities could demonstrate and the NRC could evaluate seismic margins for existing nuclear plants. These proceedings contain the text of the formal technical presentations as well as summaries of the working group sessions. Thirteen technical papers as well as NRC and EPRI reserach programs were presented at the technical sessions. Four working group discussion sessions were then held in the geotechnical/structural, piping, and equipment areas. Each group provided a forum for participants to exchange ideas and to discuss in more depth the criteria, methods and needs for plant seismic reevaluation. Recommendations from the working groups were summarized and presented at the end of the workshop.
