H-200 SURFACE PREPARATION, INSPECTION AND AUDIOGAGING

It is the intent of this work itemto prepare the vessel's underwater hull from keel to deep load line forpainting, since we are changing the entire Paint System.

It is also intended to prepare andmake available the entire hull of the vessel for taking audiogage readings,especially in any areas of concern.

2. DESCRIPTION OF WORK

SURFACE PREPARATION, INSPECTIONA.

Immediately after drydocking the vessel,and before the hull and any marine growth has had a chance to dry, the entirehull from the keel to the top of the bulwarks shall receive a high-pressurewash.

The high-pressure wash shall be performedwith fresh water only and shall be no less than 5000 psi. All washing to be performed shall be donefrom above (i.e. from the top of the drydock, scaffolds, etc.) with the nozzlespointed down to the floor of the dock to prevent the spread of water to theupper portion of the vessel and into any interior spaces.

After the Vessel hull has dried and within24 hours after drydocking the vessel, a joint inspection shall be conductedwith the COR and the contractor.

A written condition report withrecommendations shall be submitted by the contractor to the COR within 24 hoursafter performing the joint inspection. The report shall include a summary of the hull's condition, including anestimate of the total square-footage of the hull that requires a renewal of theanticorrosive system.

The paint on the entire hull from the keelto the deep load line shall be blasted using dry sand, hydro blast or shotblast to remove all paint in accordance with Steel Structures Painting CouncilSpecification SSPC SP 7.

Completelyremove all oil, grease, dirt, rubber streaks, paint and foreign matter. The surface should be sufficiently abraded toprovide good adhesion and bonding of paint. Blast overspray shall be kept to minimum.

All blasting shall be done from above with the nozzlespointed down toward ground to prevent the spread of blast or water to the upperportion of the vessel.

Scaffolds, cherry pickers or other means shall be providedfor use of personnel in blasting/power washing and painting.

Prior to abrasive blasting,precautions shall be taken to protect the hull, equipment, and machinery fromflying sand, dust and water discharge. This also applies to blasting on otherships in the vicinity.

All open fans, vents, doors, hatches, antennas and wiring,windows, nameboards, castle, ship's bell, electrical outlets, navigationlights, wipers, spotlight, davits, winches, machinery and deck gear shall besealed with plastic film or a suitable substitute prior to blasting andpainting operations. As an option, equipment may be removed prior to blastingand reinstalled after the last coat of paint has dried.

Special care shall be taken to mask and fully protect thetransducers, zinc anodes, and other underwater equipment against abrasion,damage, and painting.

Any damage to the vessel or itscomponents due to lack of or improper painting/blasting protection shall berepaired to original by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Government.The Contractor shall contact the COR to inspect and approve theblasting/painting protection prior to the start of the blasting process. Itshall be the responsibility of the Contractor to maintain the blasting/paintingprotection for the duration of the blasting /painting process.
