WHAT IS A CONSENSUS STANDARD?

Consensus standards are sometimes characterized as Voluntary Consensus Standards (VCS), National Consensus Standards, or American National Standards (ANSI).

Consensus standards are developed by Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) when industry identifies a need for a standard.

These consensus standards are often endorsed by a regulator or state or federal entity; thus becoming a regulatory requirement in state or federal law.

Consensus standards are standards approved by a balance of interest cross-section of industry representatives using a consistent approval process.

WHY ARE STANDARDS DEVELOPED?

Provide parameters to establish safety in design and development of SSCs

Establish magnitude of site-specific extreme environmental insults (seismic, wind, flood, precipitation, volcanic ashfall) for design, engineering and construction

Ensure quality and reliability of SSCs and processes Improve economics and reliability through

commonality of design and use Establish best practices for conduct of operations Assist with regulatory compliance, guidance and

oversight

Purpose: Provides criteria for selecting Seismic Design Category (SDC) for nuclear facility structures, systems, and components (SSCs) to achieve earthquake safety and criteria and guidelines for selecting Limit States for these SSCs to govern their seismic design. Limit States are selected to ensure desired safety performance in an earthquake. Note: SDCs used in this standard are not the same as SDCs referred to in the International Building Code (IBC).

WG Members: Quazi Hossain (Chair), Douglas Clark (Vice Chair), S. Additon, Haresh Chander, D. Guzy, A. Hadjian, C. Morrell, Andrew Persinko, Howard Shaffer, C. Vaughan

DOE-STD-1020-2016 AND NPH HANDBOOK CROSSWALK

SUMMARY

ANS has been developing VCSs for almost 60 years.

These VCSs consistently meet NTTAA objectives; saving Federal Government millions of dollars of standards development costs. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (10 CFR 50,

10 CFR 51, 10 CFR 52, NUREG-0800 Section 2)

Department of Energy (DOE-STD-1020-2016, DOE-STD-1189-201x, DOE-HDBK-1220-201x)

SUMMARY

ESCC develops and maintains numerous multi-media environmental and siting standards to assist private and public sectors in nuclear facility licensing, design and construction. Atmospheric Hydrogeologic Seismic Aquatic Ecological Terrestrial Ecological Environmental Monitoring

SUMMARY

ESCC develops and maintains several risk-informed, performance-based NPH standards that support DOE standards and handbooks needs. All required NPH design standards that

complement ASCE design standards will be completed in Spring 2017.

NPH design standards are consistent with ASCE design standards (e.g., ASCE-4, ASCE-7, ASCE-43).

Seismic, extreme wind and flood design standards continually undergo reaffirmation or revision to maintain state-of-the-art.
