General Design Criterion 4 (Ref. 1) requires that structures, systems, and compo-nents important to safety shall be designed to accommodate the effects of postu-lated accidents, including appropriate protection against the dynamic and environmental effects of postulated pipe ruptures. Information concerning break and crack location criteria and methods of analysis for evaluating the dynamic effects associated with postulated breaks and cracks in high- and moderate-energy fluid system piping including "field run " piping, inside and outside of containment should be provided in the applicant's safety analysis report (SAR). This information is reviewed by the MEB in accordance with this SRP section, to confirm that requirements ...
