    Weld repair

    ● All welds must be repaired in accordance with the feasible rework welding process under the guidance of technicians. After the defects are treated in the full penetration welds, magnetic particle inspection must be carried out to ensure that the defects have been removed.

    ● During rework, the preheating must be increased by 50 degrees Celsius

    ● The non-destructive testing range of the rework area is increased to 100%, and the rework tip is increased by 200mm. If the extension test finds additional defects, then the entire weld must be inspected

    ● Without the consent of the technical department or the owner, no more than 2 repairs in the same place are allowed.

    Surface protection/surface treatment

    The primer, spray paint process, and topcoat color in each project or contract must be approved by the owner. If there is no other statement in the contract, the following requirements should be followed:

    ● Sand blasting reaches Sa2.5

    ● 45μm zinc-rich ethyl silicate workshop primer

    ● 40μm epoxy resin or epoxy primer

    ● 40μm epoxy resin or epoxy topcoat

     

    a. The contract have no additional requirements for the above treatment. Except for the inside of the box, the surface needs 45μm epoxy resin or epoxy primer. The said 45μm does not include the thickness of the shop primer.

     

    b. Before cutting and assembling, the sandblasting surface and workshop primer spraying should be carried out.

    c. The paint process must be approved by the owner before the surface pretreatment.

    ● Whether the areas that do not require sandblasting and painting are protected

    ● A data sheet is available, and painters should be familiar with the data sheet

    ● The paint ratio should be carried out in accordance with the product manual

    ● The equipment functions normally

    ● The temperature of the steel plate is at least 3 degrees Celsius above the dew point

    Trial assembly

    During the trial assembly, all components must be marked in accordance with the drawings for easy identification at the assembly site, and a numbered drawing that can identify all components must be prepared.

    After all welding is completed, all bolts and joints are tested in accordance with the drawings to imitate the actual operating state before the surface treatment. The main connections must be filed in the form of photos, which show tolerance, rotations, angle deviations, etc. Focus on the following points of control:

    ● Overall camber

    ● The adhesion rate and perforation rate between the upper and lower main beams and the flange plates of the connecting beams

    ● Dimensional accuracy of length, width, and height of the main beam, and the diagonal difference of the section.

    ● Advance the track gauge deviation and the deviation of track center and web center to meet the requirements

    ● The coaxiality of the main beam and the guide beam rotation hinge and the assembly gap
