In performance of this work item, the contractor and all subcontractors regardless of tier must comply with the requirements of all applicable GTR’s. 5.2The contractor and all subcontractors, regardless of tier are advised to review other work items under this contract to determine their effect on the work required under this work item. Many of the definitions relating to performance of this work item are found in Work Item 001. 5.3Coordinate the performance of this item with Work items 903, 904 and 905. Note that blasting and painting is not permitted while propeller shafting, hubs and stern tube seal components are exposed. 6.0QUALITY ASSURANCES: None additional 7.0STATEMENT OF WORK REQUIRED 7.1Arrangements/Outfitting 7.1.1Obtain propeller blade lifting tools from ship's force. Tools are located in the upper engine room (40 Ft. flat), port side. Inventory the tools. Inspect the tools for serviceability. Clean the tools free of corrosion and prepare the lifting tools for service. Provide the Port Engineer with a report describing any tool deficiencies/shortages. Upon completion of CRPP blade work clean the tools, return them to the engine room and stow the tools. 7.1.2Inspect Propeller/shafting lifting arrangements (i.e. padeyes and thru-hull cable passes) permanently installed on and in the underside of the stern counter for serviceability. 7.1.3Inspect the hubs for external oil leaks immediately after the dock is high and dry. Wipe down hubs in way of inspection. Mark all leaks. Upon completion of the external leak check and when directed by the Port Engineer, utilize the procedure outlined in paragraph 6-14 of reference 2.1 and drain down port and starboard CRPP system oil. Drain the majority of each CRPP system's oil into its respective sump tank and hold for re-use. The remaining system oil that exceeds the capacity of the sump tanks (approximately 560 gal. for port and starboard systems) shall be disposed of as waste oil. Note that oil will have to be pumped out of the system head tanks and the hubs with a portable pump during the drainage process. In way of draining the system, drain all possible oil into the sump tanks (approximately 900 gal. per sump tank) Coordinate removal of CRPP system oil with the Chief Engineer. 7.1.4Cover and protect the exposed propeller hubs with plastic sheeting secured by tape at all times that the blades are not actually being removed and reinstalled. Note that abrasive blasting and painting of the underwater body and freeboard are not permitted while propeller blades are being removed or reinstalled or at any time that the propeller hubs are exposed. Take extreme care not to contaminate the propeller hubs or the shaft tube oil seal areas from contamination by dust, abrasive blast media, or paint while the ship is on the dock. Remove protective covering just prior to undocking 7.2Structural: None 7.3Mechanical/Fluid 7.3.1Obtain a sample of the residual oil in each propeller hub. Submit the oil samples to a qualified oil-testing laboratory for spectrographic analysis and particle count. Provide the Port Engineer with a report from the testing laboratory describing the results of the oil analysis. Detach the propeller blades from the hubs utilizing the blade lifting tool and the procedure provided by paragraph 6-19 of the Tech Manual (Ref 2.1.1). Tag each blade as to propeller hub and hub position. Tag each blade bolt as to hub, blade and blade position. Place each bolt in a lathe and measure the run out at the bolt shank and shoulder. Perform a dye penetrant exam of each blade bolt. Provide the Port Engineer with a report describing the run out readings obtained and the results of the dye penetrant exam. Hold bolts for reinstallation. Transport the propeller blades from the dock to a qualified propeller service company. Cover and protect the propeller hubs from contamination while blades are removed. 7.3.2Lay the propeller blades out on plywood, at the propeller service facility, to prevent scratching or damage. Buff the blades clear of fouling to clean bright metal. Perform a dye penetrant examination of each blade. Prepare the blades for inspection by the Port Engineer and the ABS Surveyor. Provide a report that describes the as found condition of the propeller blades. Repair all nicks burrs and other imperfections of less than two inches in length found on the propeller blades. Polish the forward and after faces of the blade tips between the 0.7 radius and the 1.0 radius and the leading edge of the blade to the equivalent of a Rupert “A” finish. Polish the remaining surface area of the blades to the equivalent of a Rupert “B” finish. Note that an “A” finish is a roughness average (Ra) of 26 micro inch and a “B” finish is a roughness average (Ra) of 76.8 micro inch. 7.3.3Utilize Enclosures 2.2.1 through 2.2.5 to document the pre and post polishing condition of the propeller blades 7.3.3Lightly machine the base of the propeller flanges and steps in order to clean up marks and up sets. Take care to remove an absolute minimum amount of material. The Bird Johnson Tech Rep must be present during the machining process. Upon completion of blade polishing and repair, cover and the blades with plastic sheeting. Store the blades in the shop until work items 911 and 912 have progressed to the point that the blades can be reinstalled. 7.3.4Transport the CRPP blades from shop to the dock. Reinstall the propeller blades. In way of blade installation, install new GFM blade seals and O-rings. Obtain proper bolt installation torque and to insure that the correct amount of bolt “stretch” has been obtained. Take the final bolt torque and bolt stretch readings in the presence of the Port Engineer. Take and record the bolt installation data that is identified on page 6-13 of reference 2.1. 7.3.5Upon completion of Blade/hub associated work, provide a portable pump, a 0 to 100 psi pressure gauge, two 1/2 inch stop valves threaded to fit the hub aperture, a 10micron filter set and sufficient 100 psi rated hose and fittings to refill and test the reinstalled CRPP propeller assemblies for leaks. Refill the hubs with GFM oil and perform a pressure test of the blade seals. The test pressure shall be 55 psi. Utilize the procedure provided by paragraph 6-15 of reference 2.1 to refill the hubs and test the blade seals for leaks. No leakage is permitted. Perform the leak test in the presence of the Chief Engineer and the Port Engineer. Upon successful completion of the leak test remove the test equipment and return the CRPP system to its normal configuration. Reinstall the LP check valve in its normal orientation. Remove the blank from the head tank piping and reinstall the orifice plate. Leave port and starboard propeller assemblies ready for operation. 7.4Electrical: None additional 7.5Electronics: None additional 7.6Preparation Of Drawings: None additional 7.7Inspection/Test 7.7.1Upon completion of CRPP propeller work and other CRPP related work; test the system in accordance with the requirements of paragraphs 4-22 and 4-30 of reference 2.1.
