0 INTRODUCTION
Each project of shipbuilding process needs a planning and management from the
beginning until sea trials and delivered. In this project, a 76M barge has been chosen
for planning in method of block construction. Technical report has been written down in
each part. From the beginning, the construction of ship was carried out based on
reference of Classification Society Rules and specifications under and Bureau Veritas.
Shipbuilding is the construction of ships, which takes place in a specialized
facility known as a shipyard. Shipbuilders, also called shipwrights, are workers which
specialize in vessel construction and repair. The construction of boats is called boat
building. Due to the smaller size and scope of the vessels being produced, boats do not
necessarily require the full services of a shipyard but may be built in a boatyard or even
smaller private facility.
2.0 OBJECTIVE
1. Determine the type of vessel for project.
2. Determine the method of construction in shipbuilding process.
3. To carry out the planning for whole project based on reference of Classification
Society Rules and Regulations and Bureau Veritas.
3.0 CONSTRUCTION
Ship construction is shipbuilding process that needs a planning for whole project.
In this project, method of block construction has been chose. Block construction is a
modern shipbuilding method which involves the assembly of prefabricated sections.
Cross-sections of the superstructure are pre-built in a shipyard, taken to the building
dock (or slipway) and then hoisted into position and attached. Some of the more
equipped shipyards are able to build equipment and utilities into the blocks, preinstalling pipes, plumbing, and electrical cables. The more components that can be built
into the blocks before final assembly, the less effort required once the hull is welded
together.
In this technical report, the whole project was carried out based America Bureau
of Shipping.
The ship is constructed like a jig saw puzzle, consisting of some blocks including
deck cargo crane and cargo hold plan. To supervise the construction process of the new
vessels, labor as supervisors, and some selected external supervisors hired by the
company to the ship yard. The number of supervisors will be reduced at a later stage
when the majority of ships are delivered.
Ship constructions are carried out based on Gantt chart of shipbuilding process.
All the processes are noted in this Gantt chart, as below:
i)
Pre-Treatment
4. Before shop primer is applied, dust, sand residue, crushed steel shot or any grit and all other
contaminants must be removed from the surface using a vacuum cleaner, air blower, etc.
ii)
Cutting
thickness of the steel. If the steel is too thick for these techniques, it can be cut by way
of Gas cutting manually.
iii)
Assembly
Assemble the cut & processed steel using step-by-step processes of piece assembly,
sub block assembly and block assembly.
After cutting steel sheets, the cut and processed components are assembled block
by block. In order to maximize manufacturing efficiency, the assembling of blocks is
carried out in a phased manner: small-scale assembly comes first, mid-scale assembly
second, and large-scale assembly last. Each piece is very heavy, so cranes are
used for the assembling. They weld steels to assemble, in other words, they
melt steels and put them together. The melted parts become like adhesive.
iv)
Outfitting
Fitting-out, or "outfitting, is the process in modern shipbuilding that follows the
float-out of a vessel and precedes sea trials. It is the period when all the remaining
construction of the ship is completed and readied for delivery to her owners. Since most
of the fitting-out process is interior work, this stage can overlap with latter stages, such
8
as the sea trials. After launching, the ship is berthed in a fitting-out basin for completion.
The main machinery, together with auxiliaries, piping systems, deck gear, lifeboats,
accommodation equipment, plumbing systems, and rigging are installed on board, along
with whatever insulation and deck coverings are necessary.
Block outfitting involves erection of units of assembled components (a
component may be a unit of a pump with its seating and associated piping) and also
heavy machinery (for example: boilers) on large blocks of the hull before the blocks are
erected and welded to each other. However, consideration is always given to the
limitation of the total weight that can be handled by the carnage facilities of the yard.
The size of the hull blocks are accordingly pre-decided by the design department of the
yard, keeping this factor in mind.
By this process, the yards have managed to prefer down-hand welding because,
the hull blocks can be inverted and the outfit can be installed before erection of the
blocks. As a result, the components requiring overhead welding (for example: exhaust
lines, ventilation trunks, etc.) can be welded by down-hand welding. This is actually very
fruitful because down-hand welding is not only easier than overhead welding but also a
safer option for the welders in the shipyard.

3.
Stage 1
Cut and formed steel plates and steel beams are welded together to form the block
portion of the vessel. The blocks are not completed until the supervisors are called for
sub-assembly and final block inspection and accept them.
Stage 2
12
Blocks are joined/ welded together at a suitable weight within the capacity of the
shipyards crane to carry. This is also the stage where the machineries for engine room
blocks, forward blocks for deck machinery and bow thruster etc. equipment in deck
houses and other outfitting are installed. During this stage, the keel of the vessel will be
ready to be laid in the slipway.
Stage 3
Blocks are now joined together in the dock and seated on the dock keel blocks which
are arranged according to hull form or docking plan and then welded. Cargo deck
cranes are erected, the hull markings such as draft marks, freeboard marks, bottom
markings, anchor chain markings etc. are confirmed to be correctly installed. The
principal dimension of the ship i.e LOA, LBP, depth, breadth and level of keel are
measured. The erection from keel laying until set to float takes approximately 20 days.

THE EQUIPMENT
Major equipment
The diversity of materials used in shipbuilding is conditioned by diversity of requirements to operating
characteristics of mechanisms and structural components of the vessel. This major components is to
ensure the process being smooth and excellent production.
1 unit of CNC Fusion Plasma Underwater Cutting Machine
Thermal cutting processes that can produce beveled edges are not new. In fact, they probably have been
around nearly as long as oxyfuel cutting. Their use has been popular in the shipbuilding industry for many
16
years. However, until recently, the high capital investment and the trial-and-error nature of their
application have limited their use.
Under water CNC plasma cutting actually submerges the plate below 2 to 4 of water, so the torch tip and
the entire arc are submerged.
plasma cutting
When plasma cutting under water, the water will absorb the vast majority of the plasma smoke. Instead
of billowing clouds of smoke that have to be captured by an expensive dust collector, a water table will
usually emit an occasion little puff that quickly dissipates.

Lifting Equipment
The cranes will be used to unload break bulk cargo, including steel and forest products, and will also be
used in heavy lift and project cargoes, for example, wind turbines.
1 unit of 50 tonnes dockside/lifting crane
21
The Manitowoc M250 is a powerful liftcrane. It has a max lift capacity of 300 tons (272 t), a max jib
length of 120 ft. (37 m), and a main boom max length of 330 ft. (101 m). Its powered by a Cummins
N14-C450 diesel engine that is capable of producing up to 450 hp (335 kW), and it also comes standard
with an independent swing system which is driven by a fixed-displacement hydraulic motor that is paired
up with an internal brake.
22
The Manitowoc ringer crane is able to lift 680 Te and can have a main boom configuration of up to
122.0m and attachments of luffing and fixed jibs can add a further 79.2m to its reach.The ringer
configuration means that the crane has to be set up in position on site. The increase of lift capacity this
attachment offers comes at a loss of mobility.
The mast rails are structured for maximized visibility while the hydraulics are configured with both
mechanical and human error safeguards to provide a more secure work environment.
