robust hinges
26
TO ensure the optimal functioning of door hinges,
implement the following maintenance practices:
1. Visual Inspection for signs of wear and tear, damage
or corrosion. Check for and tighten any loose parts.
2. Functional Testing to confirm the smooth operation of
the hinges. Listen to creaking sound.
3.Cleaning of hinge's excess deposit of salt, grime and
dirt which may cause undue stress to its parts.
4.Lubrication of the hinge's axels with moderate amount
of lubricant or grease. Less is more.
27
The pressure being handled by levers and hinges has to
be met by the water tight boundary's
rubber
seals/gaskets.
28
The weakest point of a watertight or weathertight
door/hatch/porthole is often the
seal around it.
29
This is where the watertight or weathertight seal is located. making it a crucial area for regular inspection, maintenance, and repair.
Damaged Rubber Gasket
30
Because of its relative difference in material, _ deteriorate faster than the steel construction of watertight
or weathertight door/hatch/porthole. Causes for its deterioration vary, but the most common would be wear and tear due to constant use.
rubber seals
31
To prevent these damages or prolong the service span of
your rubber gaskets ensuring your vessel's watertight
integrity,
regularly apply industrial petroleum jelly
32
a specialized product designed to endure extreme temperatures, making it suitable for applications exposed
to demanding environments. Its moisture-repelling nature prevents rust and corrosion while simultaneously protecting the rubber seal's surface. Finally, its stability ensures long-lasting
performance, even in harsh conditions.
industrial petroleum jelly
33
Rubber Gasket maintenance
* Keep gaskets clean and free from paint and rust.
* Lubricate gasket with industrial petroleum jelly.
* Replace the door gasket when it becomes hardened,
cracked, permanently grooved or when pieces are
missing or not meeting. Do not splice a section in;
replace the entire gasket.
* When replacing the gasket, the gasket joint should be
on the top of the door. Cut a 45-degree angle where
the ends meets so they overlap about one inch
34
To ensure effectivity of
rubber seals, follow
these maintenance
practices:
1. Visual Inspection for
signs of wear and
tear, damage or cuts
2. Cleaning off of old
industrial petroleum
jelly
3. Application of
protective coating
such as industrial
petroleum jelly on
the rubber

is a quick and easy method to assess the seal of hatch
covers and is a standard part of scheduled or planned
maintenance.
chalk test
37
may not be suffice especially for sensitive or high-
value cargo. Additional checks and inspections
may be necessary to guarantee the hatch
cover's integrity.
chalk test alone
38
Procedure on Hatch Cover Chalk Testing
When performing a chalk test. The top edge of every
compression bar is covered with chalk.
Hatches are then fully closed and reopened. The rubber
packing is examined for a chalk mark, which should be run
continuously along the packings centre. Gaps in the chalk mark
indicate lack of compression. Chalk testing merely indicates the
if hatch is aligned and compression achieved. It will show
whether compression bar is adequate and therefore it is not a
test for weathertightness
39
involves spraying pressurized water onto a closed hatch cover to identify any leakages. While this method is plain and
simple, its accuracy can be limited by factors like weather conditions and the availability of an empty hold.
hose test
40
is a reliable and efficient alternative to verifying
the watertight integrity of a vessel. This method utilizes high-frequency sound waves to detect any gaps or damage in
hatch cover seals.
Ultrasonic testing
41
provides precise and quantitative
results.
Ultrasonic testing
42
will keep watertight boundaries such as doors watertight and ensure smooth, easy operation.
Periodic inspection and maintenance
43
All the
materials for routine maintenance should be found in
_, and equipment used for these maintenance
routines should be thoroughly compiled, accounted for,
and replenished to ensure continuous supply onboard
ships.

mechanical issue in a boat or ship that can lead to flooding
breached hull
49
Some causes of a breached hull include:
* Debris or logs(timber) submerged just below the
surface
* Structural failure in older models
* Fracture due to overload
* Collision, contact, or grounding
* Corrosion
* Biological fouling
50
is the accumulation of microorganisms, plants,
algae, and small animals on marine vessel surfaces.
Biofouling
51
* Increases ship's drag, reducing its speed and fuel
efficiency. This increased drag can reduce the ship's
speed by up to 10%, necessitating a 40% increase in
fuel consumption to compensate.
* Compromises the integrity of the hull structure and
propulsion systems by trapping seawater in the gaps
between their shell and the metal surface, accelerating
the corrosion process
Biofouling
52
are used to coat the underwater
surfaces of ships with copper and other biocide
compounds to prevent sea life such as algae and mollusks
attaching themselves to the hull.
Anti-fouling paints
53
Frequently used as part
of multilayer coatings that offer additional benefits
beyond preventing marine growth, these coatings further
protect metal hulls from corrosion and improve the ship's
hydrodynamic performance.
Anti-fouling paints
54
While historically copper-
based paints were_, modern formulations may vary in
color.

is the gradual deterioration of materials,
typically metals like steel/iron, due to chemical reactions
with their environment.
Corrosion
62
It's a natural process that occurs
when a metal reacts with substances like _. This reaction often results in the formation of oxides
or other compounds, which can weaken the metal and
lead to structural failure.
Corrosion. oxygen, water, or
acids
63
Several environmental factors
can accelerate the corrosion process:
Moisture, Oxygen,
Temperature, Electrolytes
64
Metals corrode more quickly in humid environments due
to the reaction between
moisture-saturated air, oxygen,
and the metal's surface.
65
occurs when dry gases such as
oxygen, often at high temperatures, react with metals.
Chemical corrosion

Corrosion Types:
* Uniform Corrosion
* Pitting Corrosion
* Crevice Corrosion
* Galvanic Corrosion
* Microbial Corrosion
* Fretting Corrosion
* Intergranular Corrosion
* Erosion Corrosion
* High Temperature Corrosion
* Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC)
69
is the most common type of corrosion as it occurs evenly over the entire surface of a metal. metal. This happens when the metal lacks a protective coating, making it vulnerable to corrosive substances. Continuous exposure will result in a gradual loss of material thickness, and eventual structural failure
Uniform Corrosion
70
while predictable, can significantly impact a vessel's
structural integrity if not managed.
Uniform Corrosion
71
Here are some common
areas
on
vessels
susceptible to this type
of corrosion: Uniform Corrosion
* Piping system
* Hull Plates
* Cargo Hold Tanks
* Deck Plating
72
is localized type corrosion that forms small pits or holes on the metal surface and of can grow deeper into the metal, weakening its structure. This type of corrosion is particularly dangerous because it can cause significant damage to the metal's
interior while only affecting a small area on the surface.
Pitting Corrosion
73
is often found in the plating or in horizontal surfaces such as shell plates and ballast tanks. This corrosion can also
be caused by bumps, dents, or scratches which peeled off the metal's protective coating which eventually turn into corroded hole on that localized area.
Pitting Corrosion
74
occurs locallv in spaces such as gaps between metallic components or between metal and non- metal materials. These
areas trap corrosive fluids, creating oxygen imbalance which leads to acidification of the fluid within the crevice. This in
turn breaks down the protective oxide layer on the metal
surface.
Crevice Corrosion
75
is a significant concern in many industries, particularly in
those involving metal vessels and piping
systems.
Crevice Corrosion
76
Common on areas
vessels prone to crevice
corrosion include:
* Bolted and Riveted
Joints
* Gaskets and Seals
* Lap Joints
* Fastener Threads
77
is a type of corrosion that occurs when micro organisms,
such as bacteria, fungi,and algae, grow on metal
surfaces and accelerate corrosion. These micro organisms
can even consume oil and excrete acids that corrode
storage vessels which makes this a major issue
in maritime shipping, oil and gas industries.
Microbial Corrosion
78
Microbial Corrosion on vessels susceptible
in are these areas:
* Stern Tube that runs through the stern of a ship and supports
the propeller shaft
* Pipework including sewage pipes, tank pipes, ballast, and
fuel/oil pipes
* Tanks which include bilge, ballast, fuel, oil, and cargo tanks
79
occurs when two different metals are in contact with each other
in a corrosive setting. The active metal (anode) undergoes
corrosion at a faster rate than the other metal (cathode) which is
more stable. It can also happen in industrial settings with varying metal concentrations.
Galvanic Corrosion
80
Galvanic Corrosion Vessel areas prone to galvanic corrosion:
* Superstructure with differing metal parts, such as steel and bronze fittings.
* Propeller, propeller shaft. and rudder where dissimilar
metals are in close proximity
* Deck Fixtures and fittings made of different metals.

88
This is
a common job order in ship maintenance wherein a vessel
deck is the most susceptible to corrosion effects.
Essentially, it's a hands-on approach to preparing a metal
surface for further treatment. such
as painting or
applying protective coatings. By removing rust, you can

* Apply a protective coating
* Apply a coating to the deck to protect it from seawater
and everyday wear and tear. A chlorinated, alkali
rubber coating is a good choice.
* Wash the deck regularly
* After each trip, wash the entire vessel with soap and
freshwater, especially metal components like railings

94
is a quick and easy way
to spot surface flaws on a ship’s hull. By simply looking at
the visible parts of the ship, inspectors can identify issues
such as
General Visual Inspection (GVI).
Paint problems: flaking, loose paint, or foreign substances
Metal corrosion: rust
Marine growth: biofouling
95
is not a comprehensive inspection. It's just a
starting point to identify potential problems. More
detailed examinations are needed to assess the severity
of biofouling, corrosion, and hidden damage.
General Visual Inspection (GVI).
96
is a detailed examination
of a ship's hidden areas. This specialized inspection uses
specialized tools to identify tiny defects that are invisible
to the naked eye. With its purpose of finding potential
problems early, before they become more serious and
visible during a regular inspection, it is often the only
way to detect subtle issues like hairline cracks or
repaired welds
Close Visual Inspection (CVI)
97
are two different types of inspection methods that
ship operators can use to identify the potential risks and
damages on the hulls of their ships

is the deformation of the plating due to
excessive load or pressure. When steel is squeezed or
compressed, it can suddenly bend sideways, a process
known as _. This isn't unique to steel; any long,
thin structure, regardless of the material, can buckle,
which, with a small increase in pressure can quickly lead
to a complete and disastrous failure of the structure
Buckling
100
Areas of a vessel that are particularly susceptible to
buckling are those that experience significant
compressive stress, especially in combination with other
stresses like bending or torsion. Here are some key
areas:
Hull and Plates
Cargo Holds
Deck Structure
Superstructure
101
structural damage - buckling - hull and plates
Longitudinal Frame Members: Transverse Frame Members: Shell Plating
102
These structural
elements, such as girders and pillars, can buckle
under compressive loads, especially in areas of high
stress concentration
Longitudinal Frame Members:
103
Bulkheads and frames
can also buckle, particularly when subjected to lateral
pressure or uneven loading
Transverse Frame Members:
104
The outer skin of the hull, especially in
areas with large unsupported panels or sharp
corners
Shell Plating:
105
structural damage - buckling - Cargo Holds
Bulkhead Panels, Tank Top Plating
106
Large, flat panels separating cargo
holds can buckle under high pressure or impact
loads
Bulkhead Panels:
107
The bottom of the cargo hold can
buckle due to excessive weight or uneven loading
Tank Top Plating:
108
structural damage - buckling - Deck Structures
Hatch Covers, Deck Plating
109
Large, flat panels can buckle under
heavy loads or uneven pressure distribution.
Hatch Covers:
110

subjected to concentrated loads
Deck Plating:
111
structural damage - buckling - Superstructures
Side Shells: Deck Plating
112
The vertical
walls of superstructures can
buckle under lateral
pressure or impact loads
Side Shells:
113
Similar to the
main deck, areas with large,
unsupported panels or those
subjected to concentrated
loads
Deck Plating:
114
is the process of weakening of the steel in a
structure due to constant flexing, under the repeated
cycles of stress
Metal fatigue
115
In materials science and engineering, the
term _ describes the number of cycles of loading
and unloading that a material can withstand before it
fails
fatigue life
116
How Metal Fatigue Occurs?
1. Crack Initiation: cracks begin to form at points of
stress concentration, such as notches, holes, or
surface irregularities (intensely corroded parts)
2. Crack Propagation: These cracks gradually grow
with each cycle of loading and unloading.
3. Final Failure: Eventually, the crack grows large
enough to cause the material to fail completely
117
is the separation of a material into two or
more parts under the action of stress. It can be classified
into two main types
Fractures. Ductile Fracture and Brittle Fracture
118
Characterized by significant
deformation before failure (such as buckling). The
material stretches and necks down before breaking
Ductile Fracture:
119
Occurs suddenly without significant
plastic deformation. The material fails abruptly.
Brittle Fracture:
120
The longitudinal bend causes an axial force on
the upper deck that may cause _ at the
locations where the stress is concentrated
cracking of the
deck plate
121
Various metal fittings on the upper deck can
induce concentrations of stress and potential weld defects. Particular attention should be paid to areas surrounding the _ as
these areas are prone to developing cracks.

and bulwark stays
122
while not a primary structural member, is also subject
to the ship's bending stresses. Imperfections in welds and fittings at these locations can potentially progress into
cracks and can escalate to larger fractures compromising the ship's structural integrity.
Hatch coamings,
123
The large cargo hatchway openings reduce the torsional
strength of the hull and invite concentration of stress at their corners on the upper deck. In this regard, _ is one of the
focal points for cracking.

connected to water ballast, fuel oil tanks, and enclosed
spaces below deck are susceptible to corrosion. Water intrusion could lead to cargo damage, cargo shifting, fuel
contamination, and potential stability issues
if these components fail
Ventilation and piping
systems
125
bilge well water accumulation can corrode the junction
between bulkheads and decks. This stagnant water can corrode the bulkheads separating the store from the first
cargo hold and can lead to water ingress, cargo
damage, cargo shifting, and potential stability issues.
Forecastle spaces
126
In cargo holds, _ are apt to be damaged by cargo handling
operations
tanktop plating and side shell
structures
127
is a phenomenon in which a soil-like
material is abruptly transformed from a solid dry state to
an almost fluid state. Many common bulk cargoes, such
as iron ore fines, nickel ore and various mineral
concentrates, are examples of materials that may liquefy.
If liquefaction occurs on board a vessel, the stability will
be reduced due to the free surface effect and cargo shift,
possibly resulting in capsizing of the vessel.
Cargo liquefaction
128
can lead to direct damage to the cargo and
indirectly compromise vessel structural integrity.
Displaced cargo might obstruct escape routes or loosen
other cargo. Damaged cargo could release hazardous
substances, potentially causing injury or fire. Additionally,
shifting cargo can damage the ship's internal structure
or even breach the hull or tanks
Cargo shift
129
accidental mixing of different
types of cargo, leading to quality degradation and
potential safety hazards such as fire. Another instance
would be if cargo of corrosive substances got mixed with
other cargo, it can inadvertently accelerate the corrosion
of the ship's structure, especially in areas with high
humidity or temperature fluctuations.
Cargo contamination
130
during cargo operations, particularly when heavy equipment like grabs or payloaders make contact with the ship's
structure, may often damage the ships. Local
overloading, where corners are loaded in ways not
approved by the classification society or loading manual,
can lead to cracking of deck plating at hatch covers and
backing plates between hatchways.
