VERTICAL LIFT GATE SYSTEMS

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 BACKGROUND

The downstream lock gate is a counterbalanced vertical lift gate which is operated by hydraulically powered hoists. The gate is connected to two counterweights with multiple strands of wire rope. The wire rope passes over the uppermost surface of the hoist sheave. The two hoist sheaves support the cumulative weight of the gate, the counterweight, and the hoist ropes.

1.2 DESCRIPTION OF WORK

Under this contract, the Contractor shall replace the hoist machinery serving the downstream navigation lock gate. Old hoist mechanisms and their associated electrical equipment will be removed and new machinery, supports, and controls will be installed per drawings and specifications.

1.2.1 Existing Equipment - Oil Disposal

a. Existing Gear Boxes to be removed are filled with AGMA 5EP lubricating oil. Each gear box contains approximately 96 gallons of oil. Hydraulic Power Units (HPUs) contain approximately 100 gallons of Chevron Rando HD ISO 32 Hydraulic Oil, each.

b. Drain, package, and label oil, and hydraulic fluid from existing equipment in accordance with Section 01 57 20.00 28 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. See paragraph "Other Regulated Waste Disposal" for additional information. Used oil, and hydraulic fluid shall be turned over to the Government for disposal. Government will provide Product data and MSDS information to the Contractor, as requested.

1.7 WIRE ROPE UNTENSIONING AND RETENSIONING PROCEDURE

Prior to performing any work on the hoist sheaves, bearings, or wire rope assemblies, the Contractor shall submit for approval a wire rope untensioning and retentioning procedure. The plan shall be prepared and stamped by a Professional engineer. The hoist wire ropes shall be untensioned by lowering the lock gate until it rests on the gate sill or other support. Government personnel will perform all gate operations. The Government's counterweight support beams shall be drawn, by the Contractor, through the lower openings in the counterweight. The counterweight shall be jacked, with Contractor furnished jacks and fixtures, until the wire ropes are no longer under tension due to the weight of the gate or counterweight.

The Contractor shall be prepared to lift the downstream gate counterweight up to twenty inches. The wire ropes shall be lifted a few inches off the drum and protected from heat and sparks during sheave welding operations.

The nuts on the counterweight rope sockets may be backed off to facilitate adding slack to the ropes. The drum shall be free to rotate for drum repair work. Included with the procedure shall be drawings and calculations for items used in the process. Each counterweight weighs approximately 360 tons. Load distributions of the support locations should be a consideration. As a minimum the procedure shall address:

1. The procedure shall consider jack locations, number of jacks, lift of jacks, stability of support beam, beam stresses through all stages, stability of jacks, plans for contractor supplied sheave support fixture, and the stability of any other materials used during the untensioning and retensioning procedure.

2. The jacking method of the counterweight shall be explicitly discussed. The method shall consider even jack rate across all jacks utilized. The method shall also guard against tipping and rotation of jacks, beams and any other supporting members.

3. The return of weight of the counter weight and ropes to the sheave in a safe and controlled manner to avoid overloading load cells or ropes.

4. The method for proper alignment of the wire ropes, their counterweight and gate connections, and the hoist sheave grooves while the counterweight load is returned to the sheave.

5. In addition include the jacking method for the sheave (112 Kips) during sheave bearing replacement. The method shall consider jack locations, number of jacks, lift of jacks, stability of jacks, plans for contractor supplied sheave support fixture, and the stability of any other materials used during sheave bearing replacement. The method shall consider even jack rate across all jacks utilized. The method shall also guard against tipping and rotation of jacks, fixtures, and any other supporting members.

1.8 WIRE ROPE LOAD BALANCING PROCEDURE

The contractor shall submit for approval a wire rope load balancing procedure, 90 calendar days prior to lock outage. Included in the procedure shall be the method for ensuring ropes are not overloaded, tools used for tightening bolts for length adjustment, the retensioning of the wire rope and removal of support beams, and the necessary steps of the testing procedure.

1.9 COUNTER WEIGHT LOAD BALANCING PROCEDURE

The contractor shall submit for approval a counterweight load balancing procedure 90 calendar days prior to lock outage. Included in the procedure shall be the method for determining the counterweights weigh half of the gate weight. This procedure must be prepared and stamped by a professional engineer. The wire rope load balancing testing personnel may be able to assist with counterweight balancing options.

1.10 GEAR ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE

Submit gear alignment procedure including calculations to determine deflection at working load so that at working load the gear alignment meets the alignment criteria specified in Part 3 of this section, paragraph entitled Gear Alignment Criteria. Submit gear alignment procedure for approval, 90 calendar days prior to lock outage.
