EQUIPMENT
All structures and equipment shall be designed for seismic forces adopting the site
specific seismic information provided in this document and using the other provisions
in accordance with IS:1893 (Part 1 to Part 4). Pending finalization of Part 5 of IS:1893,
provisions of part 1 shall be read along with the relevant clauses of IS:1893:1984, for
embankments.
A site specific seismic study has been conducted for the project site. The peak ground
horizontal acceleration for the project site, the site specific acceleration spectral
coefficients (in units of gravity acceleration ‘g’) in the horizontal direction for the
various damping values and the multiplying factor (to be used over the spectral
coefficients) for evaluating the design acceleration spectra are as given at Appendix-
I.
The site specific design acceleration spectra shall be used in place of the response
acceleration spectra, given at figure-2 in IS:1893 (Part 1) and Annex B of IS:1893
(Part 4). The site specific acceleration spectra along with multiplying factors specified
in Appendix-I includes the effect of the seismic environment of the site, the importance
factor related to the structures and the response reduction factor. Hence, the design
spectra do not require any further consideration of the zone factor (Z), the importance
factor (I) and response reduction factor (R) as used in the IS:1893 (Part 1 to Part 4).
Damping in Structures
The damping factor (as a percentage of critical damping) to be adopted shall not be
more than as indicated below for:
Page 10 of 338
CLAUSE NO. PROJECT INFORMATION
Method of Analysis
Since most structures in a power plant are irregular in shape and have irregular
distribution of mass and stiffness, dynamic analysis for obtaining the design seismic
forces shall be carried out using the response spectrum method. The number of
vibration modes used in the analysis should be such that the sum total of modal
masses of all modes considered is at least 90 percent of the total seismic mass and
shall also meet requirements of IS:1893 (Part 1). Modal combination of the peak
response quantities shall be performed as per Complete Quadratic Combination
(CQC) method or by an acceptable alternative as per IS:1893 (Part 1).
In general, seismic analysis shall be performed for the three orthogonal (two principal
horizontal and one vertical) components of earthquake motion. The seismic response
from the three components shall be combined as specified in IS:1893 (Part 1).
The spectral acceleration coefficient shall get restricted to the peak spectral value if
the fundamental natural period of the structure falls to the left of the peak in the
spectral acceleration curve.
For buildings, if the design base shear (VB) obtained from modal combination is less
than the base shear (⎯VB) computed using the approximate fundamental period (Ta)
given in IS:1893:Part 1 and using site specific acceleration spectra with appropriate
multiplying factor, the response quantities (e.g. member forces, displacements, storey
forces, storey shears and base reactions) shall be enhanced in the ratio of ⎯VB/ VB.
However, no reduction is permitted if ⎯VB is less than VB.
The site specific design acceleration spectra is a reduced spectra and has an in-built
allowance for ductility. Structures shall be engineered and detailed in accordance with
relevant Indian/International standards to achieve ductility.

1. INTRODUCTION:
This guidance covers the minimum requirements for the design and fabrication of
carbon steel vessels, equipment and pipes for rubber lining and VE Glass Flake
lining.
2. GENERAL:
2-3 : The parts tend to wear must be designed to be able to dismount and check or
exchange easily as shown in Fig.2
2-4 : All lining surface should be designed as simple as possible and reinforcement
must be provided on the side not to be lined as shown in Fig.3.
2-5 : When heating is necessary, care must be taken not to raise the temperature partially
too high as shown in Fig.5 (b), or not to contact with rubber directly. It is
recommended to design as shown in Fig. 5(a) and keep the hating pipe at least 100
mm apart from the lining.
2-6 : When it is necessary to insert nozzles in vessels special attention should be paid
to dimensions securing enough room at overlap of rubber lining as illustrated in
Fig. 6.
3-1 : Welds and flush on the side to be lined shall be ground smoothly and must be
free of cracks, undercuts, overlaps, pinholes and blowholes.
3-2 : Butt joint is preferable and overlap joint is not recommended for lining vessels.
Welding must be generally made from both sides as shown in Fig. 7.
3-3 : All corners should have the curvature of at least 3 mmR for convex surface and at
least 10 mmR for concave surface as shown in Fig. 8.
3-4 : All welds for lining vessels should be continuous as shown in Fig. 9.
3-5 : When air pocket brought about by continuous welding cannot be avoided, air
vent-hole or intermittent weld must be provided as shown in Fig. 10.
Pipes and Fittings should have smooth surface on the side to be lined. Lining on surfaces
with sharp projection and irregularities should be avoided.
Flat-faced flanges shall be welded on square to pipes or fittings. The weld on the front face
should be continuous and ground to a smooth convex surface not less than3 mm in radius.
Pipings should be designed to use standard pipes and fittings and complied with following
requirement.
The maximum length of straight pipes, measured between flange face, which can be
satisfactorily lined are given below:
The dimensions of Elbows and Bends which can be satisfactorily lined are as below:
Note: The above tabulation shows sizes which can be fabricated and rubber lined satisfactorily.
The dimensions of concentric and eccentric reducing pipes which can be satisfactorily lined
are given below. Pipes should be reduced by mechanical process or by high-frequency
reducers.
ALL DIMENSIONS IN MILLIMETERS
Note:
x The above tabulation shows sizes which can be fabricated and rubber lined satisfactorily.
THE DIAMETER OF THE BRANCH(S) SHOULD BE THE SAME OR LESS THAN THAT OF THE STRAIGHT
PIPE.
ALL DIMENSIONS IN MILLIMETERS
Note: The above tabulation shows sizes which can be fabricated and rubber lined satisfactorily.
5-1 All branches and outlets of tank should be equipped with flange to allow the rubber lining
to over flange face. Typical flanged joints are illustrated in Fig.11.
5-2 Mating flange of sectional tank should be square and plumb, and sections should be made
to avoid distortion and when bolted together.
5-3 Normally, soft rubber gaskets should be interposed between lined flanges. If the flange
faces have to withstand very high loads, the flanges joint shown in Fig. 11(d) should be
used.
6. NOTES:
6-1 : Any surface of the base metal to be lined should not be coated with paint or oil.
6-2 : Any surface of the base metal to be lined should not be galvanized.
6-3 : Although it is possible to line on various construction materials, carbon steel is most
preferable as substrate. For cast materials special care should be taken to prevent
blowholes or cavities.
Each pipe should be confirmed whether it is ready for rubber lining through checking
dimensions, appearances and quality of weld etc. according to the drawings standard for
lining.
a) Visual inspection:
Weld lines shall be free from weld cavity and spatters shall be completely removed.
Under-cut shall be 0.3 mm or less.
Appearance shall be not unsightly.
b) Check Curved faces at corner :
Convex shall be 3 mm Radius at least, concave shall be 10 mm Radius at least.
c) Check height and width of weld bead :
Diameter 550 mm or less : Diameter 600 mm or larger :
Height - 0.1 ~ 0.2 mm Height - 1.0 ~ 1.5 mm
Width - 1.5 ~ 2.0 mm Width - not specified
W = (T1 – T 2) x 10 mm or longer
7-2 Visual inspection:
The flange faces to be lined shall be free from disadvantages irregularity.
7-3 Dimensional inspection:
a) Tolerance of length of pipes, bends and tees :
It should be noted that some tanks designed for operation, in vertical position, are to be
handled in horizontal position during the various stages of lining. Hence, such vessels should be
designed accordingly.
During operation of some rubber lined tanks, such as hydrochloric acid, the fumes / mist
emanating out of the tank, tend to corrode the external surface especially at the roof. It may be
advisable to provide rubber lining externally especially around the vent nozzles. In such of the
tanks, sometimes due to overflow etc. corrosion occurs at the bottom kerbs, also the corrosive
medium goes below the surface of the bottom plate. Care must be taken by suitable design to
prevent such situations.
In large size tanks, piping, process equipment, suitable lifting lugs should be provided.
If the vessels, pipes require external hot / cold insulation, the steel cleat for holding the
insulation should be welded before handing over the fabricated item for rubber lining.
Note:
1. In addition to above, Surface preparation, application including drying & curing of rubber
/ VE Glass Fake lining, packaging, storage, Inspection etc. shall be as ensured as
recommended by OEM’s of these lining.

5. CONCLUSION
This guideline is prepared in intent to provide proper site storage and preservation of the
Mechanical, Electrical and C & I items / equipment supplied under various bought out
packages/items. This storage procedure shall be followed at different power plant sites by
concerned agency for storage and preservation from the date of equipment received at
site until the same are erected and handed over to the customer.
Many of the items may be required to be kept in stores for long period. It shall therefore
be essential that proper methods of storage and preservation be applied so that items do
not deteriorate, loose some of their properties and become unusable due to atmospheric
conditions and biological elements.
1. To the extent feasible, materials should be stored near the point of erection. The
storage areas should have adequate unloading and handling facilities with adequate
passage space for movement of material handling equipment such as cranes, fork lift
trucks, etc. The storage of materials shall be properly planned to minimise time loss
during retrieval of items required for erection.
2. The outdoor storage areas as well as semi-closed stores shall be provided with
adequate drainage facilities to prevent water logging. Adequacy of these facilities shall
be checked prior to monsoon.
3. The storage sheds shall be built in conformity with fire safety requirements. The stores
shall be provided with adequate lights and fire extinguishers. ‘No smoking’ signs shall
be placed at strategic locations. Safety precautions shall be strictly enforced.
4. Adequate lighting facility shall be provided in storage areas and storage sheds and
security personnel positioned to ensure enforcement of security measures to prevent
theft and loss of materials.
5. Adequate number of competent stores personnel and security staff shall be deployed
to efficiently store and maintain the equipment / material.
6. At no time shall any materials be stored directly on ground. All materials shall be
stored minimum 200 mm above the ground preferably on wooden sleepers
1. All special measures to prevent corrosion shall be taken like keeping material in dry
condition, avoiding the equipment coming in contact with corrosive fluid like water,
acid etc.
2. Materials which carry protective coating shall not be wrapped in paper, cloth, etc., as
these are liable to absorb and retain moisture. The material shall be inspected and in
case of signs of wear or damages to protective coating, that portion shall be cleaned
with approved solution and coated with an approved protective paint. Complete record
of all such observations and protective measures taken shall be maintained.
3. Generally equipment supplied at site are properly greased or rust protective oil is
applied on machined/ fabricated components. However periodic inspection shall be
carried out to ensure that protection offered is intact.
4. While handling the equipment, no dragging on the ground is permitted. Avoid using
wire rope for lifting coated components. Use polyester slings (if possible) otherwise
protective material (e.g. clothes, wood block etc.) should be used while handling the
components with rope / slings
5. For Equipment supplied with finished paint, touch paint shall be done in case any
surface paint gets peeled off during handling. Otherwise such surfaces shall
necessarily be wrapped with polythene to avoid any corrosion. Further for equipment
wherein finish coat is to be applied at site, site to ensure that equipment is received
with primer coat applied.
6. It shall be ensured by periodic inspection that plastic inserts are intact in tapped holes,
wherever applicable.
7. Pipes shall be blown with air periodically and it shall be ensured that there is no
obstruction.
8. Silica gel or approved equivalent moisture absorbing material in small cotton bags
shall be placed and tied at various points on the equipment, wherever necessary.
- In case of any damages, these shall be promptly notified and in all cases, the
repairs / rectification shall be carried out.
- Any items found damaged or not suitable as per project requirements shall be
removed from site. If required to store temporarily, they shall be clearly
marked and stored separately to prevent any inadvertent use.
The types of storage are broadly classified under the following heads:
i Closed storage with dry and dust free atmosphere. (C )
The closed shed can be constructed by using cold-rolled / tubular components for
structure and corrugated asbestos sheets / galvanised iron sheets for roofing. Brick
walls / asbestos sheets can be used to cover all the sides. The floor of the shed can
be finished with plain cement concrete suitably glazed. The shed shall be provided
with proper ventilation and illumination.
A separate yard to be identified as “scrap yard” slightly away from main open yard to
store wooden/steel scraps, which are to be disposed off. This is required to avoid mix
up with regular components as well as to avoid fire hazard.
Some of the components, which are having both machined & un-machined surfaces
and are bulky, shall be stored in open storage area on a raised ground and suitably
covered with water proof / fire retardant tarpaulin.
