Preventive Maintenance

 What is Preventive Maintenance?

.

Organized maintenance work carried out to prevent breakdown by well conceived plans of inspection, lubrication, adjustments and overhaul refer to preventive maintenance. It can be time based or condition base. Preventive maintenance is a routine inspection of production systems and this service activity is designed to detect potential failure conditions so as to make minor adjustments and/or repairs that will help to prevent major operating problems. Production systems like chemical plants, refineries, steelmills or any flow shop operate continuously and cannot afford the break-down of a machine operative in the system. Since such a failure will bring the entire plant to a stand still and the losses incurred during the downtime are enormous. In such cases the preventive maintenance is most attractive and effective policy. The critical machines belonging to the production system are detected and are maintained under the preventive maintenance schedule designed.

The construction of Cantilever RCC slab from starting up to commissioning.

Construction of Cantilever RCC Slab: The following steps would be involved: (i) Form Work: Staging should be designed and erected. The staging shall be of tubular steel structure with adequate bracing as approved or made of built up structural section made from rolled structural steel sections. Shuttering used shall be of sufficient stiffness to avoid excessive deflection and joints should be tightly butted to avoid leakage of slurry. If required rubberised lining of material shall be provided in the joints. Steel used for concreting should be suitably stiffened. It should be properly repaired before use and it should be ensured that it is properly cleaned to avoid stains, honey combing, seepage of slurry etc. The holes, if any must be plugged.  Suitable camber shall be provided to counteract the effect of deflection. The camber at free ends shall be 1/50th of the projected length.  The shuttering must be coated with mould oil. (ii) Placing of Reinforcement: The reinforcemen...
