This book was released on 1982 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In september, 1982, an underwater inspection was conducted at the Naval Submarine Base, San Diego, California to assess the condition of the submerged portions of the following structures: Pier 5000 (Sperry Pier), Pier 5002 (Elk River Pier), Pier 5003 (Dixon Pier), Sheet Pile Bulkhead adjacent to Pier 5002. A visual swim-by inspection was made of all facilities under investigation and a more detailed visual and tactile inspection was made of representative components of each facility. Ultrasonic thickness measurements were made of selected steel sheet piles. The detailed inspection included cleaning and scraping of selected areas of the piles and documentation of conditions with color photographs. Generally, the underwater inspection indicated that the submerged portions of the facilities included in this project are in excellent condition. However, Pile 23G or Pier 5000 has been severely damaged above water on the underside of pile cap. This pile should be repaired. A few minor cracks were found in three piles of Pier 5000. The cracks are not significant at this time, but repair of cracks using epoxy is recommended as part of future maintenance operations. It is also recommended that, in the tidal and the splash zone, the protective coating be applied to the steel sheet piling and appurtenances of the Bulkhead adjacent to Pier 5002. Design live loads for each facility are contained in this report. No reductions from these design loads are warranted, except in the area of Pile 236 of Pier 5000 which should be restricted to dead loads only until repaired.

Download or read book Underwater Facilities Inspection and Assessment at Deperming Pier Trident Refit Facility Bangor Washington written by AGI (J) AND ASSOCIATES INC SEATTLE WA. and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All timber braces in the intertidal and submerged zones of the Magnetic Silencing Facility Deperming Pier at the Trident Refit Facility, Naval Submarine Base Bangor, Washington were subjected to Level I and II examination to determine the overall condition of the members and to identify specific defective members which might require maintenance and repair. The overall condition of the members ranged from very good to fair. The intertidal diagonal braces and horizontal wales were found to be in very good condition with only 4% of the members found attacked or damaged. The submerged zone timbers such as the 'X' and 'Z' loop trays and tray support timbers were in fair to good condition, with several members having sustained significant marine borer attack or damage. The number of defective timbers found is approximately 283. It is recommended that these timbers be subjected to preventive or restorative maintenance and repair. It is estimated that repairs to defective timbers will cost between $230,000 and $290,000 depending on repair methods used. These fees are based on replacing damaged members with either high retention (20 lbs/cu ft) creosote treated predrilled timbers or with molded fiberglass members. The choice of material and repair/replacement techniques will affect the final fee. Keywords: Underwater inspection; Washington(State).

This book was released on 1981 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the underwater facility assessments conducted at the U.S. Naval Station in Charleston, South Carolina is to provide a generalized structural condition report of designated facilities within the activity. These facilities are Piers KILO, LIMA, MIKE, NOVEMBER, PAPA, QUEBEC, ROMEO, SIERRA, TANGO and UNIFORM. Each facility was inspected by a team of engineer/divers using a combination of visual/tactile and ultrasonic techniques. Critical elements were photo-documented. All piers appear to be in good to excellent condition. No structural anomalies were noted to cause these piers to be downgraded. Generally cracking and spalling of the concrete piles and minor corrosion of the steel pipe piles were the only deterioration observed. No repairs are required on Piers MIKE, NOVEMBER, TANGO and UNIFORM. The remaining piers will need some repair work. Most of the repair work consists of filling cracks greater than 1/32 in. wide and spalled areas deeper than 1 in. with an epoxy grout. These repairs will retard any further deterioration.

Download or read book Underwater Facilities Inspections and Assessments at Naval Air Station North Island San Diego California written by BLAYLOCK-WILLIS AND ASSOCIATES SAN DIEGO CA. and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An underwater facilities inspection was made of certain facilities at the North Island Naval Air Station, San Diego, California during the period July 20 to August 25, 1984. The assessed facilities were: The Old Air Station Bulkhead, The Carrier Quay Wall or Bulkhead, Pier Bravo, and Pier J/K. A condition of moderate to severe sulphate deterioration of the concrete was found in the piling to such an extent that is is recommended that the pier live load be restricted to 100 psf (pounds per square foot) and truck cranes in excess of 15 tons be prohibited. The pier is adequately supported against earthquake forces (as defined in NavFac P-355) applied perpendicular to its principal axis. However, the piles would not be expected to support the pier in the event of earthquake forces applied parallel to the principal axis.
