3.6 Local Policy. The Contractor must refer to site (e.g. Base) Regulations and Instructions for details regarding local policies (e.g. crane services, parking, or facility usage).
3.7 SFLC Standard Specification approved changes. The Contractor must be aware that the following are approved changes to published SFLC 2020 Edition Standard Specifications and supersede published content:
3.7.1 SFLC Standard Specification 8636. Add missing paragraphs between 3.2 and 3.5 of Std Spec 8636 as follows:
“3.3 Access cut boundaries. The Contractor shall ensure that access cuts comply with the requirements and restrictions detailed in the following and in SFLC Std Spec 0740, and referenced codes.
3.3.1 Location of boundaries. Boundaries of access cuts and closure plates shall, in general, be located between principal ship framing, bulkheads, and other structural members and shall be at least three inches from any of these members or from the toes of other welds. A reduction in this three inch minimum may be approved by the KO on a case by case basis provided sufficient clearance is maintained for welding and inspection requirements. The boundaries of access cuts and closure plates should land on existing butts or seams, wherever practicable. The boundaries of prior access cuts should be utilized wherever possible. Boundaries may extend across one or more frames as required for the size of the opening.
3.3.2 Access hole dimensions and arrangements. Holes or access cuts shall be the minimum size necessary and shall be in accordance with the following:
Rectangular access cuts and closure plates welded into primary hull structure shall be at least 12 inches wide in the lesser dimension.
For circular access cuts, the minimum diameter shall be 4T, where T = thickness of the involved structural member, but not less than three inches.
Circular closure plates for access cuts less than two feet in diameter shall be dished 1/16 to 1/8 inch to allow for shrinkage when welded.
Corners of rectangular access cuts and closure plates shall have a minimum radius of 6 inches except when a boundary lands on an existing hull longitudinal seam or transverse butt weld.
Corners at an existing seam or butt shall intersect at a 90 degree angle.
Cuts that are to cross existing butts or seams shall do so at an angle of 90
6 (Rev-1) degrees plus or minus 15 degrees.
In primary hull structure, existing welds forming the boundary of a cut shall be cut back 3 inches beyond the toe of the access cut, except that the cut back shall not intersect or cross an existing weld, frame, or structural member. In which case, the cut back may be reduced to a minimum of two inches in length.
Existing welds crossed by the cut shall not be cut back.
3.3.3 Primary hull structure. Primary Hull Structure includes the shell, main strength decks, principal longitudinal bulkheads, vertical keel, deep web girders and stiffeners designed to withstand the ship bending stress.
3.3.4 Mechanically fastened joints. Welding closer than six inches to a mechanically fastened joint should be avoided. When access cuts cross or come within six inches of a mechanically fastened joint, the fasteners shall be checked for tightness and if necessary, loose fasteners shall be seal welded or removed, and replaced for a distance of 6 inches beyond the edge of the cut. When a cut crosses a mechanically fastened seam the cut plates shall be repaired using single V welds backed with glass tape (MIL-C-20079) to prevent fusion between the mechanically fastened plates.
3.4 Ship integrity maintenance. The Contractor shall maintain safety and ship integrity by installing temporary guarding and coaming, in addition to weathertight and watertight closures. Remove these temporary fabrications after closing the hull access, and grind surfaces flush in way of removals. For shell plating cuts made at or below the waterline where temporary closures are impractical, the Contractor shall secure each vulnerable compartment and subdivision to minimize potential damage to the extent permitted by the scope and urgency of the work.
3.4.1 Guarding. Install temporary guards in accordance with 29 CFR 1915.73.
3.4.2 Coaming. Ensure that in areas where flammable liquids may be stored, a 4 inch high metal coaming shall be installed on the surface of the deck with tack welds and fully sealed with caulking compound. The coaming shall encircle the access cut in the deck.
3.4.3 Weathertight and contamination closures. Fabricate temporary closures, using fire retardant material, before cutting access openings and install closures whenever access is not in use. Closures shall be:
Constructed to protect the access from inclement weather and entry of contaminants (shall include a coaming or dam on the deck to redirect rain runoff away from the opening).
Fitted with fasteners that permit rapid installation and removal.
Able to support a minimum of 150 pounds per square foot for horizontal deck closures.
Where the access opening is in way of a removed hatch, scuttle or door, the closure shall be configured to allow normal passage of ship’s personnel and equipment.
7 (Rev-1)
3.4.4 Watertight closures. Ensure that access openings created four feet or less above the maximum anticipated waterline shall include temporary watertight closures when the vessel is waterborne.
NOTE
NAVSEA S0600-AA-PRO-160/CH16 provides requirements for design, fabrication, and installation of temporary watertight closures.”
3.7.2 SFLC Standard Specification 0000. Replace paragraph 3.3.4 Vessel access, as follows:
"3.3.4 Vessel access. During work at the Contractor’s facility, provide access and/or egress to and from the vessel in accordance with 29 CFR 1915.74, Subpart E. Provide a minimum of two gangways that have the following:
Adequate walking surface width and strength and be safely secured.
A railing, with a mid-rail, on each side of the gangway, and a turn table if necessary.
Substantial steps properly secured and equipped with at least one handrail, when the upper end of the gangway rests on or is flush with the top of the bulwark of the dock.
Nets or other suitable protection on both sides, when there is a danger of personnel falling between the ship and the dock. Nets and other suitable protection must extend beyond the projected area of the access and egress points so as to catch a personnel that may be falling outward: i.e., the nets must be wider than the gangway.
Proper trimming at all times.
Adequate illumination for their full length.
Separated by one-fourth the length of the vessel, at a minimum, as to mitigate the possibility that an incident could block both means of escape."
3.7.3 SFLC Standard Specification 8635. Replace and add paragraphs as follows, "3.3.10.4.1 Contractor-furnished supporting equipment. Provide all hoses and fittings needed to supply water to the system. Provide pressure gauges at the connection(s) to the ship and the furthest firehose station to allow personnel to clearly read the gage-face to demonstrate or record the required water pressure is available at all energized portions of the system."
"3.2.3 Shipboard access/egress and routing of temporary services. Maintain a primary and secondary means of access/egress for each vessel, where practicable.
Pre-plan for the installation of temporary services to minimize the total number of service leads penetrating the hull by maximizing the use of backbones and/or manifolds for industrial services. Pre-planning for the installation of temporary services shall include removal (first in, last out, when no longer required). Pay special attention to transitional spaces (cross passages, top and bottom of stairwells) where services could potentially fall and restrict emergency personnel egress and/or casualty responder access."
8 (Rev-1)
"3.2.3.2 Materials used for suspending temporary services. Temporary services shall be suspended at regular intervals, to prevent impeding personnel access/egress and emergency response, using a high temperature line that meets the noncombustibility test requirements contained in reference (e). When using steel wire rope, or other potentially abrasive material, an anti-chafing material shall be used to prevent damage of the temporary service line. When available, temporary service lines may be run through the ship’s structural elements (i.e., cable ways, light stanchions, etc.). When the routing of temporary services overhead is not practicable, temporary services, rigging of hoses, welding leads, and temporary lights shall be clear of the decks on temporary “trees” or brackets and be arranged to minimize tripping and other hazards."
"3.2.3.5 Quick Disconnect Fittings. QDFs shall be located within 10 feet of designated vertical and horizontal fire zone boundaries. When practicable, QDFs shall be installed within 10 feet of hull penetrations used for personnel access, to facilitate the deployment of smoke control curtains. QDFs must be capable of being disconnected safely on pressurized or energized systems unless approved for use as described in paragraph 3.2.3.7. Pressurized and disconnected QDFs must prevent wetting of energized equipment. For hull openings used for services only, QDFs are not required, provided the opening is fitted with an air and smoke control “sock” that remains in place around the services. Air and smoke control curtains are not intended to provide an air tight seal of the hull opening. Rather, the curtains or socks, are to ensure that emergency responders can control the flow of air and smoke through the opening to allow for de-smoking of compartments, and minimize “chimney” effects. Curtains shall be made of fire resistant fabric meeting the requirements of NFPA 701."
"3.2.3.7 Service lines crossing fire zone boundaries. When service lines transit a fire zone boundary which cannot be safely disconnected locally (e.g., high voltage cables), the COR shall approve, in advance, the method to safely secure and remove the service."
3.7.4 SFLC Standard Specification 6310.
3.7.4.1 On page 2, replace REFERENCE “MIL-PRF-24667C, May 2008, Coating System, Non-Skid, for Roll, Spray, or Self-Adhering Application” with “MIL-PRF-24667D, FEB 2021, Coating System, Non-Skid, for Roll, Spray, or Self-Adhering Application”
3.7.4.2 On page 9, replace the NOTE under paragraph 3.1.8.5 as follows:
NOTE
De-ionized water may be used in cases where available fresh water has excessive chloride/chlorine content. Submit a CFR prior to using de-ionized water.
