“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.

5 (Rev-0)

• 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 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.

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.

Plan to the COR no later than 10 days prior to commencement of work, and prior to any modification to the plan after initial approval.

3.2.2.5.12 Post the fire plan and a full set of DC plates at the quarter deck for use by casualty response.”

“3.2.7.2 Fire Alarm. When requested, install a fire alarm system on the quarterdeck as designated by the COR, arranged to send a signal directly to a central station service, a remote station service, a cognizant fire department, 9 (Rev-0) a shipyard fire department, or a continuously manned location within the shipyard where trained operators can take immediate action to transmit an alarm.

3.2.7.2.1 Test the fire alarm system daily to ensure its reliability. Repair or replace defective or inoperative alarms immediately.

3.2.7.2.2 Fire alarm devices placed aboard ship shall be either a fire alarm pull box or a non-dial telephone.

3.2.7.2.3 In addition, place a telephone on the quarterdeck as an alternate means of calling the cognizant fire department, shipyard fire department, or a continuously manned location within the shipyard where trained operators can take immediate action to transmit an alarm.

3.2.7.2.4 When a cutter is in dry dock, place a means of reporting a fire at least every 100 feet on the dry dock floor under the length of the ship.

3.2.7.2.5 Alternate Power Disconnect. At the same location on the quarterdeck as the Fire Alarm, provide a shunt trip disconnect that will cut all Alternate Power to all circuits in the event of a fire.”

“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.

3.3.4.1 Gangway alternative. If gangways are not practicable, submit to the COR a proposal for a suitable alternative.

3.3.4.2 Safety. Do not lay obstructions on or across the means of access/egress. Do not pass loads or cargo over the means of access/egress while personnel are on them.

3.3.4.2.1 The permanent (or temporary) announcing system must be used to inform workers and crew of all secured access and egress routes, and the information must also be posted on status boards.”

3.7.3 SFLC Standard Specification 8635. Paragraphs updated and added as follows:

“3.2.3 Shipboard access/egress and routing of temporary services. Shall 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.

10 (Rev-0)

3.2.3.1 Routing of temporary services through installed ship hull openings. The following applies to routing of temporary services through installed ship hull openings, both exterior and interior, designated for personnel egress and/or casualty responder access:

• For doorways, temporary services shall be limited to the topmost 8 inches of the opening.

The vertical height of the door, with services run, shall be no less than 50 inches unless the doorway has been “secured” specifically for temporary services. Service lines which are normally depressurized may remain be routed in doorways if their resultant pressurized configuration does not violate the 50 inch minimum clearance requirement.

• Temporary services may be run through hatches, provided the services fit between the hatch coaming and ladder. Additionally, the size of the opening, with services run, shall be no smaller than 28 inches in diameter unless the doorway has been “secured” specifically for temporary services. Services lines which can be easily collapsed (e.g., vent trunks) may encroach the 28 inch clearance area, by no more than 6 inches, if the collapsing of the service line reestablishes the 28 inch minimum clearance requirement.

Service lines which are normally depressurized may remain be routed in hatches if their resultant pressurized configuration does not violate the 28 inch minimum clearance requirement.

3.2.3.1.1 Additional Hull Cuts. When temporary services cannot be routed through interior and exterior installed shipboard personnel openings in accordance with paragraph 3.2.4., existing (or additional) access cuts utilized for routing of temporary service, personnel egress, and/or casualty responder access shall be approved by the COR.

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.

3.2.3.3 Drawing of Services Entering the Ship. For each availability, the Contractor shall provide a simplified ship drawing showing compartments, access status, and temporary service system configuration of major service backbones/trunks and/or lines (including isolations). The drawing shall be suitable for use by emergency responders for isolation of services during an emergency and located at the CASCON Station and/or

DCC/Quarterdeck. The Contractor shall update the drawing as significant conditions change. At a minimum, the drawing shall include:

• Type, description of service.

• Shore side shut-off points.

• Route of service through the ship.

• Locations of quick disconnect fittings.

• Identification of vital services and any cautions for vital services.

3.2.3.4 Marking Temporary Services. All temporary services shall be positively identified with highly visible, durable, unique markings that include maintenance activity name, service type, location, and shore side shut-off points. Tags will be located (at a minimum) at the source, point of entry aboard ship, termination point, and at

Quick Disconnect Fittings (QDFs).

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

11 (Rev-0) on pressurized or energized systems unless approved for use as described in paragraph 10.4.9. 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 reference (f).

3.2.3.6 Air flow control. The Contractor, in conjunction with SF, shall stage material to provide for temporary closure of access cuts, hatches, and other hull penetrations to control air flow in the event of a shipboard fire.

Temporary enclosures erected around hull access openings shall be constructed with the ability for emergency responders to rapidly deploy smoke control ventilation fans (i.e., damage control box fans). If the enclosures are constructed with ventilation fans installed, the fans shall have the ability to reverse air flow, in order to provide emergency responders the ability to actively de-smoke an affected compartment.

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.

3.2.3.8 Protection during installation, operation and removal of temporary services. Ensure that adequate protection is provided during installation, operation, and removal of temporary services. For fluid systems, spray protection shall be installed at each mechanical joint of a temporary system that is inside of the hull of the vessel, in the vicinity of shore power or electrical equipment, or in the vicinity of hull openings to prevent fluids other than air spray on ship’s equipment. Spray protection shall consist of adequate see through sheeting (minimum 5 mils thickness) around each joint secured by several wraps of tape allowing view of the component as much as possible. Anti-chafing protection shall be installed around services in particular areas (i.e., hatches, traffic areas, vicinity of sharp objects) where there is a high risk of inadvertent puncture or separation. These protective measures shall be addressed during the Firefighting and Fire Prevention Conference, in accordance with SFLC

Standard Specification 0000, and weekly safety inspections to ensure adequate protection is maintained.”
