HOT DIP ZINC GALVANIZED STEEL

1. INTRODUCTION
This method statement covers the construction works for the Project: Replacement of 220 kV Substation at NUREK HPP particularly the general site installation of GIS Steel Structure. The following method statement will be presented based on the test conducted both on the Factory as well as the actual measuring done after the installation/ erection of Hot dip Galvanized Steel on GIS Hall.

2. Technical Data Sheet

A technical data sheet as reference was provided by the supplier (see attachment).

3. Factory Visit
The Factory were visit July of 2011 by Mr. Konstantin Erbes (Alstom Representative) & Mr. Bernd Stitch (CDC) for Factory Acceptance test & they conducted sampling of Hot dip zinc galvanized steel thickness and requested the supplier for Inspection certificate

Gauge.

Actual

4.3.1 The measuring tool to provided for measuring the thickness is INZISE Coating Thickness 4.3.2 It was agreed the location for the measurement of galvanization thickness is on all erected
columns (18 columns).

4.3.3

The method of work is to remove / scrape a portion of the paint from the columns

for this will be the area of measuring point. for each columns it was defined that there will 4 measuring test to check area condition if it with in the specification.

4.3.4

Actual measurement on all the columns was made and witness by the

following person dated 10.12.11. Rodolfo Espinosa (CDC) Bekhruz Salimov (CDC) Andreas Kuhrke (Alstom)

4.3.5

A special paint (ZINC Touch up Paint) will be used for effective re-working of

affected galvanized parts. The method selected will be on spray type on the area that have steel abrasion, impact, scratches and other related defect of steel during transport & erection (refer to Technical information of ZINC TOUCH UP PAINT).
