SUP SALV, UWSH, Planning Flashcards
Heave around
Using a capstan to haul in line or chain
Slack
Ease out line or loosen so there is no strain
Hold
Not allow any more line to go out even with risk of parting
Check
Keep a strain but pay out to prevent parting
Up Behind
slack off and run slack to a belay point, given when line or cable has been stopped off or falls 2 blocked.
Hand over Hand
one hand after the other
Take up slack
Heave in line but do not strain
Double up
Pass additional bight on all mooring lines, equal train on all
Ships mooring lines are numbered
Fore to aft
Preparing to come along side you should have __ heaving lines
two
Anchor Hawk
Used for dragging for submerged objects, holding power when it snags
Grapnel
Used for dragging, bottom search/recovery of small objects
Internal Survey
Checking for damage flooding holes cracks
External survey

150
Ars-50 Class heavy lift main bow roller lift per wire
75 tons
Ars-50 Class heavy lift Stern rollers
75 tons
Ars-50 Class heavy lift rollers used in conjunction
300 tons
Beach gear rigged luff on luff bow lift purchase should be monitored with a
dynamometer
3 categories of leaks
Minor, moderate, Major
Patchs placed externally
when pumping
Patchs placed internally
when de-watering
DC patchs installed by crew
Always suspect should be replaced
Crack repair
Patch extends 6” on all sides, drill at ends of crack, fit patch, weld in place
Flat patch
The most common type of patch
Ply wood should be ____ the hole dimensions
twice
Box patch
Flat patch with sides to fit the hull, built on surface/heavy
Three types of cofferdams
Complete, partial, small
Cofferdams should have what installed in case of stability issues
Quick flood valves
Recovery buoyancy, 4 basic methods
Pumping, blowing, Combo of pump/blow, induced buoyancy
Pumping requires _____ prep and set-up time then other de-watering methods
Less
Pumping allows the ship to come up _____ giving more control
slower
Eductors most common types
S-type (single, Peri-jet (pass 2” solids)
Air Lift efficiency governed by
Volume and pressure of air supply relative to water depth, Depth of water, position of inlet
Airlifts use Air to create a
Differential pressure in the pipe that lifts
Petroleum, Oil, Lubricants POL pumping
Submersible-Hydralic or electric, Pnematic diaphram,
Besides pumping ______ is another common type of dewatering
Compressed Air
Compressed Air is best used for
Controlled Air blowing will reduce pressure differential.
Regaining sufficient Buoyancy to re-float ships that are sunk on sides or upside down.
Compressed Air dewatering initiated when
Casualty is hard up, close to the ground
Conditions are bad surf, surge, ground swell
Requirements to dewater with compressed air
Watertight or capable of being made so.
vertical sides capable of being made water tight.
Damage low, Standpipe to carry water
High capacity air compressors, Special relief valve
Weight management - 5 methods to reduce ground reaction
Weight management Induced buoyancy Ground removal Lifting Temporary reductions
Ground removal - Scouring
Prop Wash from tugs or ships
jetting pumps
Dredgeing
2 most common types of pulling systems used
Tugs Commercial, Auxillary rescue ship (ARS), Fleet ocean tugs (T-ATF) Ground Tackle Linear puller Purchase system
Ground Tackle System 2 types
Direct Pull system
Purchase system
Direct Pull Systems
Hydraulic - 200000 up to 300000
Electrical - 110VAC/12VDC 200000
Hydraulic power unit
HPU MOD 6 - 50 class only/3800 LBS.
Direct Pulls system Advantages
Fewer people to operate than purchase system
Controls can be placed anywhere
USN salvage ships carry a minimum of __ pullers and purchases
6
3 basic part of a purchase system
standing block, traveling block attached to ground leg, Wire rope rove to sheaves, pulls up to 60 tons
Purchase system ground leg is always gripped by
one of the carpenter stoppers
Ground Leg (Beach Gear)
Anchor, chain, wire rope, retrival wire and buoys
Pulling system uses this most common type of anchor
Drag embedment
Navmoor Anchor
6000 LB type modified for salvage
Stato Anchor
6000 LB most suitable for beach gear
Ells Anchor
8000LB type not as good as stato or navmoor
LWT light weight Anchor
6000LB type adjustable flukes
Navy stockless
Used as ships bow anchor
Chain
2 1/4 die lock, holds anchor to sea floor, resists chaffing
Ground leg - Usually one shot of chain is used, how many feet?
90
When leading chain around a corner the diameter of the bend must be at least
7 times the diameter of the bar that forms on the chain. 3 links should be in contact with the curved surface.
Jewelry - 2 types of detachable links
Standard - connects to same size, Pear shape - connect to different size chain
Jewelry - Detachable link components are not
interchangeable
Support retrieving or crown wires 2 types
42” steel weighs 325 lbs supports 1100 LBS
40” Nylon 164 LBS supports 1000 LBS
Crown Pendant used to
Recover/Reset ground anchor
Beach gear should not be used in water deeper than
