Generation of Design Basis Ground Motion for SSE
• Based on • Peak Ground Acceleration • Spectral Shape

Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
Peak Ground Acceleration
• The Peak Ground Acceleration is calculated using Maximum
Potential of the Region, which is moved on to an active faultclosest to the site by using the acceleration Attenuation lawfor the site specific soil condition
• The maximum potential (M) of the region is calculated by
using the maximum historical/recorded earthquake within aradius of 300 Km of the site and adding one intensityequivalent
• The epicentral distance (D) which is the minimum distance
between the active fault and the site and depth of focus (H) • Using M, D & H and the attenuation law, the PGA for the site
is derived

Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
ESTIMATION OF PGA
•The PGA for a site is estimated by Mc-Guire (1978) Attenuation relation:
•PGA = 0.0306 exp(0.89 M) .Rh-1.17 exp(-0.20S)
•where M is the Magnitude of Design earthquake
•Rh is the Hypocentral Distance
•S is the soil condition (S=0 for Rock and 1 for soil)

Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
Derivation of Spectral Shape
• Spectral shape of the Response spectrum is based on no. of time histories recorded on similar geological and seismological condition as that of the plant site.
• A minimum of 25 earthquake records are used.
• First, the spectra are normalized by the respective PGA value of the record.
• This is to say that, after normalization, the spectral ordinate at any frequency is nothing but the Dynamic Amplification Factor (DAF) of the PGA at that frequency.

Find the response of different elements of the structures, systems or equipment (SS&E) to a given
response spectrum
1st: Calculate the mode shapes and frequencies of the SS&E :
This is done by solving the following equation for the eigen vectors and eign values
[ [K] - ω2n[M]} {Øn} = 0
where
[K] - Stiffness Matrix
ωn - natural frequency of the nth mode
[M] - Mass matrix
Øn - Eign vector of nth mode
ONLY significant modes up to 33 Hz are generally determined.

Failure of tanks
• Traditionally heavy equipment like large storage tanks were secured to the foundation by friction i.e. self standing. For such tanks, major damages in the past earthquakes have occurred because of
– sliding or – overturning
• For seismic resistance, tanks are secured to the foundation by providing anchorage in the form of cast in place bolts. The bolts should be designed for the earthquake resultant forces, otherwise the bolt threads can get damaged or the bolts can get uprooted.

PIPING
In general, the piping systems have performed well during a seismic event.
• Failure of these can be extremely damaging. • Failure may cause LOCA (Loss of Coolant
Accident)• Flooding from broken lines - can severely
damage the system due to short-circuit in instrumentation & electrical components.

earthquake
• In recent years, steel and mild steel pipes, (ductile properties) - replaced cast iron pipes.

Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
Support for Normal Load & EQ
• Piping systems are generally supported for normal loads == dead wt & thermal loads.
• Dead weight supports - resist only downward gravity load
• During EQ - have to resist vertical upward load & increased vertical downward load due to EQ + normal load.
![Page 112: SEISMIC RESISTANT DESIGN OF NUCLEAR POWER ......Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007 For seismic design of a Nuclear Power Plant • It is essential that the buildings which houses the](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022011919/60138a43b1b5fe41025a00d4/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
Lateral Restraints
• Long continuous pipes - seldom critical for horizontal lateral EQ load, if provided with lateral restraints
• Generally, such lateral supports -provided at a spacing = 3 times the dead weight span.

Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
Flexibility v/s seismic
• Piping system, where thermal stresses are predominant
• the need for flexibility (to accommodate thermal movement)
often tends to offset the requirement of resisting seismic loads.
![Page 114: SEISMIC RESISTANT DESIGN OF NUCLEAR POWER ......Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007 For seismic design of a Nuclear Power Plant • It is essential that the buildings which houses the](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022011919/60138a43b1b5fe41025a00d4/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
In such cases, this leads to
• Use of limit stops instead of the usual seismic solid supports or
• use of mechanical/hydraulic snubbers or dampers -- permit slow thermal movement but resist rapid movement during EQ

Seismic Anchor Movement
• Valves, air filters, blower silencers, strainers -commonly included in the piping
• do affect the response of the piping system if they are independently supported i.e. not supported from the same structure
• may result in the failure of attachment e.g. failure at the valve piping weld joint

Thermal Power India-II, Dec 2007
Reason of such failure
• If piping system is supported from a single structural system then (piping + support) respond as a single unit.
• If supports are taken from independent structures / from different floors of same structure results in relative displacement at the support locations will occur.

Relative SAM seen by piping system :
• (going from one RCC building to another RCC structure) will be < (between RCC and steel structures)
• The relative displacement between two steel structures will be still more
This should be taken into account in the design.

CONCLUSION• The performance criteria for the structures,
systems and equipment are defined early before the design stage based on their function in relation to their contribution to plant safety.
• The Nuclear Power Plant systems and equipment are seismically qualified using state-of-the art techniques involving both seismic analysis and testing, to ensure that the nuclear power plant is capable of safely surviving an earthquake that the plant is likely to experience.
• Guidelines and criteria for meeting these qualification requirements are followed as given in various AERB, NRC, IAEA guides, ASME codes and IEEE standards etc.
