Welding
2

Welding is a metal splicing in metallurgy by using heat and pressure, with

or without filler metal having a melting point that is almost the same. All
welding shall be performed in accordance with the requirement of ASME
SECTION IX. (as per API 650 clause 5.2.1.1 & clause 7.2.1)
1. Welders who perform arch welding shall qualified by having met the
requirements of the project specification and or approved welder
qualification procedure.
2. All shop connections shall be welded unless otherwise noted on the
design drawing
3. All welds shall be continuous along edges of connected part unless
otherwisw note on the drawing.
4. Welding shall not be performed when the surface on the base metal is
wet due to rain, etc, or during strong wind. However, welding may be
performed when the welder and weld are satisfactorily protected and
suitable measures have been taken with respect tho the base metal.
5. Welding shall not be performed when the ambient temperature is less
than 0.
6. Slag and spatter shall be removed after the completion of welding
7. When a manual weld is made from both sides, back gouging shall be
performed before making the weld on the backside, when required by
contract document.
8. When making a weld from one side only, special care shall be taken to
produce a satisfactory welding of the root portion by using backing or a
backing strip on the other side.
9. Field connections shall be bolted whenever pissible unless otherwise
note on the design drawing
10.All welds shall be visually inspected to the requirements of applicable
code.

Blasting and Painting

1. Agitator :
An equipment used to mix paint material and thinner in paint pot
continuously in order to keep paint viscosity same.
2. Paint Viscosity Index:
A stable paint viscosity at a certain temperature.
3. Zahn Cup :
An equipment used to measure paint viscosity before use.
4. Keane - Tator Surface Profile Comparator :
An equipment used to measure the profile surface of abrasive material
visually.
There are three types of this equipment based on type of blasting material,
those are : Keane-tator for sand, grit and shot abrasive.
The use of this equipment should be together with lighted magnifier.
5. Wet Film Thickness ( WFT ) :
Thickness of painting in wet condition.
6. Dry Film Thickness ( DFT ) :
Thickness of painting in dry condition.
7. Paint Material Specific Gravity :
Gravity of paint material in painting pot (The unit is Kg/Litre). The
equipments to measure the specific gravity are measuring glass and the
balance.

8. Dry Time :
Time needed to have the dry and/or hard condition of paint material at a
certain temperature.
9. Air Humidity :
Water contained in the surrounding air.
10.

Semi auto blasting

Autoblasting machine by using steel grit or steel shot.

11. Mesh.
Filter to determine the size of grain during sand pot filling process on
manual blasting.
It is also used to separate the litter from blasting sand.
12.

Elcometer Adhesion Tester.

Equipment to test the stress strength of paint material, which already

painted to the product having the contact surface about 1/5 square inch.

Painting Process
1. Check paint material to be used, it must be as per clients specification.
2. Mix paint material smoothly following the direction on data sheet provided
by paint

manufacture. The mixture may use both viscosity index and

specific gravity system.

3. Pour paint material mixed to the paint pot by using fine sieve 80 mesh
filter.
4. To avoid the sediment of paint material, paint pot to be completed with
agitator to mix
5.

paint material inside paint pot continuously.

Check air pressure inside paint pot. Air pressure inside paint pot should
refer to paint data

sheet in which the pressure for each paint material

should be different.
6. Check air humidity at the area where painting work is conducted by using
hygrometer and compare the actual air humidity with humidity allowed by
paint material data sheet. Painting work shall not be carried out if humidity
is over 85%, rain or snow (except indoor work).
7. Check material temperature by using surface temperature thermometer
and room temperature at the location where material to be painted by
using thermometer. Compare with temperature allowed by paint material
data sheet. Painting work shall not be carried out if temperature surface
are below 5C, over 50C, and below dew point plus 3C.
8. Make sure that the area where painting work is conducted free from
blasting dust and heavy wind, the surface of material clean and dry by
sweeping and/or blowing up with compressor wind, and the un-painted
area is cover with paper tape / masking tape.

9. Use Painting Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), before painting work.

10. Do the paint spraying throughout the material according to the airless
spray direction layer by layer until the required WFT achieved.
11. When paint material is dry as specified drying time, the thickness of paint
is measured by using DFT gauge with reference to SSPC standard (if any
other requirement from client, it should be followed accordingly). Its spot
measurement consists of an average of trigeange readings makes to
another.
12. If painting work to be applied more than 1 coat , check coating interval
with paint material data sheet. Check the coating surface dry condition by
finger before next coating. Clean and rub the painting surface with sand
paper before next coating. Repeat the steps on point 7.4.1. up to 7.4.11.
13. Stencile the punch mark of each material by using paint marker stenciled
Mark.
3.9

Condition Blasting And Painting

1. Surface preparation shall be in accordance the project specification.
2. Prior to blast cleaning, contamination shall be removed from steel
surfaces, oil and grase shall be removed by solvent cleaning.
3. Prior to blast cleaning, weld defct shall be repaired, sharp edges and
flames cut edges shall be reduced by grinding and welds shall be smooth
and free of all weld slag and weld spatter.
4. Surface to becoated and painting shall be free of all visible dust, oil, grease
and other surface contaminants. All surface shall be thoroughly dried prior
to pinting.
5. All coated and painting material shall be in a thoroughly mixed condition at
