Summary-
I’ve worked in the ship yard from march, 26 of 2010
till know 08-17-12 and during that time I’ve worked along
the side of welders,fitters,sheet metal, electricians,
tradesmen, and serco, and I've learned to work hands on
and most recently in march I was promoted to lines and
leads were I unhook everybody's equipment and make
sure every things safe for everybody. During that time I've
also gone to school were I’ve learned stick,mig,burning,
and some brazing, and tig.I know how to use a measuring tape
and gotten familiar with blue prints but still learning.
Work Experience-
In 2010 I started working for jci with the welding department on Naval Ships such as the Princeton, Antietam and the Champlain, the Rushmore were I worked 8 months. On the Rushmore I would move around the ship through the weld deck and flight deck. When going down to the weld deck you will notice
on one side there is main 1 and aux 1 entrances, right
next to each other. On the other side main 2 and
aux 2 entrances were together. When on the flight deck on
the star bird aft you will find aux 2, if you walk forward
going toward star bird forward you will find main 1.
Were port aft was you will find main 2 . If you walked forward
toward forward port you will find aux 1.The weld deck
was setup this way so you would find all these entrances
easier. If you go to the actual space through the p way you
will find the escape trunk in the same area in the opposite
p way.The first thing we did when mig welding was do the
drop test on the co 2 manifold unless we were using argon
or mixed gas. The first thing I would do before entering
the space is look for a chemist sheet if dealing with a
confined space I can’t remember the exact oxygen level but
if its not 20.9 like it usually is I’m not going in till
the environment is safe. I would also locate a hot work sheet
to make sure everything is up to date. The chemist
sheet should be good 24 hours after the day unless
something has changed the environments atmosphere
like paint. I like to make sure the blower and ventilation
are working properly If not go get an electrician to fix it, or
try to do it myself unless it’s completely out of my hands.
I like to make sure lagging does not need to be removed.
I would make sure when we find the leads and air hoses
that there hooked up and ran correctly and that the whip is
on the air hose with the pin in the center and also make
sure the whip has a rubber piece and is secure. when
turning on the air manifold I like to make sure that the
manifold has the rubber piece and that I connect it with a
tight seal and the safety pin installed. I only let a slight bit of
air go on and quickly shut it off to make sure everything is
safe due to the danger of turning on a air manifold.
The flight deck and the weld deck were typically areas were
we would drop are lines from the openings or small holes
or over the sides for easy access.We would also use the
escape trunks to complete tasks in certain situations.
These spaces can be located by the access list to any space
on the wall or before walking down the steps to the room.
Before beginning hot work I would make sure there was
no trash that could catch on fire or cables that needed to
be covered. I would cover any expensive equipment or the
floor were any sparks might fly. I also would see what area
wasn’t going to be affected by the hot work such as the other
side of the room for instance. may be paint needed to
be removed with a needle gun or chisel on both sides. I like
to touch it up with the flapper wheel to make sure it’s safe
to work. I learned allot about amperage or voltage
settings while working with the welders. I also
gained experience what to do in certain situations for
example, when 2 welders are welding on each side some type
of insert, first you put ceramic on the bottom. Then you
would weld the top at 23 volts so the person on the other
side can weld it like at 25 volts when he is finished.
Remember to fill in the top first so the bottom can be
welded. normally you would let you’re material get a little
hotter but not to hot but since you’re using ceramic
becarefulle not to burn through just don’t go to hot. Give
it proper cool down time by utilizing you’re rotary file,
flapper wheel or grinding wheel but not too cool you don’t
want to dull the material. In regular circumstances
when working ceramic you would weld at 24 volts to fill it
in and then move up to 25 volts after you have filled
it in. When not welding ceramic I keep it in between 26-29
volts depending if it’s vertical or flat you’re vertical is
always going to be less. It may seem like you have no gas at
all, that means the gauge might be frozen. If you go to
the manifold follow the line to the cylinder you can knock
the ice off or change the gauge for the one that’s not
frozen. When leaving for more than 15 minutes make sure
to shut you’re gases off and if you’re in a confined
space remove anything that deals with gas from the space.
Fitters-
In 2011 I worked with the fitters, I learned to grind, use
cutting wheels and flapper wheels use the saw saw, angle
and straight p- grinders. I learned to position myself
in different ways on the ladders and sometimes just pull back
a little if to many pipes or something is in the way to get
a better view of my work. When I first started grinding I
would grind everything except the weld. Eventually I picked up
experience like knowing when its alright to dig into the
weld and when you should just keep it at a lower angle and
just grind the weld. I really don’t like to dig into the
weld because there is always a chance you might sink in to
the material. I also would use a cutting wheel to do
different types of cuts don’t forget to use your c clamp or
vise scrip when you need it to do these cuts. I learned to do
this by watching the people around me work and I copied
their movements. I would often use the p -grinder and I
learned to shape the the weld using the rotary file,and
the flapper wheel. I also got to use the little grinding wheels
to grind into areas that are hard to get into, and flapper
wheels to get the paint off in small corners that are hard to
get into when working with aluminum. Sometimes it’s easier
to get the corners with the angle p grinder the straight
p grinder cant always fit into certain areas cause of its size.
I learned that sometimes instead of doing a whole set up
you can use a saw saw on something like a hanger although
the way to go is a cutting wheel sometimes you might not
want any sparks or have to wait for a hot work sheet. I also
got to learn to weld aluminum, I would weld it at 23 and a
half volts and would move the gun a little quicker than
regular with a wire speed of 6. I learned to set up the gauge
on the cylinder and set up the gun for the aluminum machine.
I also got to do rip outs while working with aluminum
and learned to use the wedge to get under the weld. I would
cut the side and the center by cutting through the weld and
then try to get under the weld. If I needed to tie white
lighting on the material with a wedge and knock it off with
the sledge hammer. If I needed to tie white lighting to
this material so I wouldn’t damage anything or hurt myself
I would do so. I also got to learn how to use a measuring
tape during this time especially when learning the basics of
the blueprints. Before doing any work it is very important to
set up the containment. I also worked with the sheet metal for
a month were I got to use more hand tools like the rib bit
gun the ratchet and screw drivers. I learned to unlock
the grinder with a hammer and a flat head and would undo
bolts with a screw driver and a ratchet. I worked with a
tig welder for a week he would weld the vertical at 80 and
the flat at 110 amps he had the gun on positive and the
ground on negative to give it a cooler weld. I also
helped tradesmen hammer the bottom of what holds up
the ship on the dry dock and helped them bring in the ship and
I helped Serco at 32nd street with a cable pulling job. I’ve
helped strap in the cable runs. Set up the computers to
make sure they have internet a lot of ratchet work screw
drivers bolts and getting more familiar with the actual
naval term of the spaces. I found that its easier to
locate spaces if you learn the actual name of the space
for instance shaft alley,radio,computer central,cic,
galley. void,breeze way,aux,main,engine room sonar,
trunk,pilot house,control room,radar rooms,fan rooms,
transmitter room,ship store, vls, gunloader rooms. forward,
aft, port,star bird.I also got promoted to lines and leads
in march of 2012 were my pay rate was raised to $12 an
hour. My responsibilities changed to getting the burning
lines the air hoses and welding leads. I have to make
sure everything is safe and there’s nothing hooked up so
gases aren’t going any were in the ship. I also tie the lines
up make sure there’s nothing hanging in the hallways the
only hallway that is always a mess is the 03 level on
the chancerville. I also do the safety walk through with
the safety as a requirement and fix what ever they feel needs
to be fixed on the ship.The ship we have been on at
the moment is a cg 62 cruiser. If you enter at the middle of
the ship if you turn right toward the forward side of the
ship you will find radar 3 right there you can continue
walking toward computer central or you can go down the
steps were you will find main1 and aux 1. The trunk inside
the the quarter deck leads to aux 1. Once you’re in front of
main 1 and aux 1 you are on port side of the ship if
you continue walking toward the forward side you will
arrive at the ship store which is connected to csmc if you
continue walking forward you will find ic gyro if you turn
the corner to the vls is right there and if you turn left
and continue walking forward on the ground there’s a
scuttle that leads down to the tanks and forward next to
the gun loader there’s a trunk that leads to the same tanks
and at the top you’ll find yourself outside next to the
foxsolls almost to the tip of the ship. Know that you’re next
to the gun loader room and the final room going forward
is sonar 1-4 and it goes all the way down to the cable
trunk and all the way up to were you’ll see the very tip of
the ship in front of you its the last trunk in this area. If you
walk back on star bird side toward the aft side of the ship
you will walk passed the gun loader room passed vls you
will see a scuttle in the ground that leads to ic gyro next to
the steps that leads to star bird side to go outside you will
see a trunk that is the only way in and out its a pump
room the second trunk leads to main one the trunk starts at
an opening in front of computer central. The next door is
csmc you will walk passed the ship store continue toward
the kitchen and the mesh deck there you will find aux 2 in
the middle and a trunk that leads to aux 2 the opening to
that trunk is in front of the quarterdeck outside below the
boat deck. When you go down those steps you’ll find
control central before you reach aux 2. When you’re in the
hall way if you continue walking you will see steps that
lead down to the berthing area were you will find the
shaft alley if you continue on port side you will see the
laundry room the steps that go down to jp5 continue toward
the aft gun loader room and continue toward aft steering
and the nixie room at this point you reach the end of the
ship toward aft so you turn the corner toward star bird
continue to the shop go passed the laundry go passed
the ladder that leads to jp5 inside jp5 there’s a trunk that
leads to the shop and starts outside on top of forward
vls there’s a scuttle in the room that you can get out to go to
the port side. outside jp5 if you continue on star bird
you’re back to were you started in the berthing room next to
the shaft alley you walk up the ladder continue walking
toward aft the first ladder you see walking down will take
you to shaft alley if you keep walking and don’t go down
you’re outside on aft side of the ship where you have reached
as far as you can go. Outside there’s a trunk that leaves you
in front of the nixie room. If you go through port side
go forward through the hall way there’s a ladder going
down that takes you to the shop . If you keep walking
forward you will find a steps that will take you up to the
01 level in officer central the berthing space for the ship
officers if you go to aft you’re on top of the vls if you
go forward you’ll walk toward the quarterdeck but instead
of going to the quarterdeck lets go up the steps to the
galley were the hellow hangers are at and the intakes
you can go into a room that leads to the boat deck were
the machines are at you can go up to the 03 and go up
these steps that are right there on the main mass you will
find yourself in radar room 5 if you walk in the room and if
you go up the stair you’re in radar room 4 from radar room 4
if you walk out of radar 4 you’ll find steps that lead down this
will take you back to the 02 level were you’re back to
the intakes were the galley is if you go forward you will
find radio to you’re right a little more forward there’s a
scuttle that goes into radio and if you keep going forward
you’ll end up in cic at the very end . There is a door in the
first room that you can get things in and out on star bird side
if you go into cic you’ll find a door on port side you can
get things in and out and if on star bird going all the
way forward there’s usually a big whole in the wall to get
things in and out were you’ll easily drop you’re line down to
the machines. There’s also holes in the ground that you
can drop leads to computer central. When you walk out
the room you’ll see stairs that lead up to the 03 level you can
go to aft in the hall way were you’ll find some rooms with
allot of aluminum work or forward to were you’ll find the
first door to you’re right that leads to radio 2 and you can go
up the stairs to radio 1 in the same room or you can walk out
of radio 2 and see 2 doors in front of you the transmitter
room and the fan room or just go up the steps to the 04
level were the co cabin and radio 1 or you can go up the
steps again that lead to the pilot house were you have
reached the top of the ship.
