LST Installation Readiness Review Mechanical Installation Preparation H. James Krebs May 5, 2004 May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 1 Mechanical Installation Preparation • IR-12 is the location of most mechanical preparation work during 2004 & 2005 • Why IR-12? – IR-12 Hall is very similar to IR-2 Hall • Same floor plan • Identical 50/10 ton crane combination – We need space • IR-12 was empty • IR-2 is presently occupied with BaBar related items May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 2 IR-2 May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 3 IR-12 - Before May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 4 IR-12 Today May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 5 IR-12 Activities • Pre-installation preparation of brass plates – – – – Radius corners Drill & tap threaded holes for slide swivel shackles Camber plates as needed Stage plates for assembly • BaBar model – Build a fairly crude but full scale mock-up of the forward end of BaBar including: • Barrel assembly simulating corner blocks removed • FWD end doors • FWD PEP pier May 5, 2004 H.J.

Krebs 60 Steel Handling Fixtures • Flux Bar Handling Fixture (Cont’d) – Issue • There are no accessible threaded holes on the flux bar to enable bolting up of rigging equipment – Solution • The corner block bolts protrude through the flux bar. When these bolts are removed, the clearance holes may be tapped in the field. The metric size of these holes matches the tap drill size of a 1-13/16UN special thread. – Status • Special taps are in house • Special bolts have been designed and fabricated May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 61 Flux Bar Tapping Tests • Test material used was a left over sample of the BaBar flux return steel 100mm in thickness. • The tests were performed using the crudest of tools and incompetent personnel (me) • Test1 – Hole was initially tapped using a 1.75-12UN tap and then the threads chased with a 1.812-12UN tap. This process was very easy. • Test 2 – Hole tapped only with 1.812UN tap. This was sightly more difficult but still fairly easy. • Comments – A special tap handle will need to be designed and fabricated – fairly easy. – Effort will be needed to control cutting fuid and metal chips May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 62 Flux Bar Tapping Test May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 63 Flux Bar Fixture May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 64 Flux Bar Fixture Unloaded CG Test May 5, 2004 H.J.

Krebs 69 IFR Background Shield Wall • A non-LST item but is installed by the same crew during the down • Wall is in final stages of assembly – Only two lift eyes need to be installed • Main support structure components are fabricated and in-house • Earthquake restraints are fabricated and inhouse • The shield “snout” is fully assembled • The ceiling bracket installation beam is in the final stage of fabrication • One ceiling bracket needs a minor modification May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 70 IFR Background Shield Wall May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 71 Shield Wall “Snout” May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 72 Shield Wall Structural Supports May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 73 Shield Wall Earthquake Restraints May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 74 Comments • The full scale model will be a valuable tool for installation preparation – Earthquake bracing is being fabricated – EQ committee approval received mid April – Construction of model shall be complete by end of May • All support personnel will be trained using actual hardware • Elevator platform will be tested to assure fit function and safe operation • Brass absorber will be prepared and staged for installation • Brass installation hardware is in final stages of fabrication • Only one steel handling fixture remains to be fabricated – BWD lower corner block fixture • All major mechanical installation components are either in house or on order May 5, 2004 H.J. Krebs 75 Potential Risks • The elevator platform may not arrive in time to adequately test and make any necessary modifications – We believe we there is adequate time – We can “wing it” on the lower sextant – Absolutely need the elevator platform for the upper sextant May 5, 2004 H.J.
