Weekly Information Bulletin March 7, 2016 - Electric Boat designs, builds, and delivers products in accordance with contract quality, cost, and schedule requirements. - March 7, 2016 Weekly Information Bulletin Top Causes of Unintentional Injury & Death in Homes & Communities According to Injury Facts 2015, about 93,200 people died from unintentional injury-related deaths in 2013. That's 93,200 times someone's ordinary day turned tragic. Often, these tragedies happen when least expected – during a vacation, while doing chores at home or while driving across town. EBC encourages everyone to be aware of hazards related to leisure and recreational activities and, like performing a JHA at work, take proper safety precautions. Here, in order, are the top six causes of unintentional injury and death in homes and communities. Poisonings In 2011, poisonings overtook motor vehicle crashes for the first time as the leading cause of unintentional injury-related death for all ages combined. Poisoning deaths are caused by gases, chemicals and other substances, but prescription drug overdose is by far the leading cause. Motor Vehicle Crashes No one wakes up thinking they will lose a loved one in a car crash, but motor vehicle crashes are the second leading cause of unintentional injury-related death overall. Impaired driving, distracted driving, speeding, weather and inexperience can cause a life to be cut short in the blink of an eye. Everyone has a role in making our roads safer. Falls More than 29,000 people died in falls in 2013. Falling is the third leading cause of unintentional injury-related death over all age groups, but it's the #1 cause of death for those 71 and older, according to Injury Facts 2015. The good news: Aging, itself, does not cause falls. Choking Choking on food or other objects is the fourth leading cause of unintentional-injuryrelated death over all age groups. Deaths rates rise rapidly at about age 74 and peak at 84. It is the second leading cause of unintentional injury death for people 87 and older. Drownings Not including boating incidents, about 10 people drown every day. It's the fifth leading cause of unintentional-injury-related death over all ages, and the #1 cause of death for children ages 1 to 4, mostly due to children falling into pools or being left alone in bathtubs. Fires & Burns Fire is the sixth leading cause of unintentional-injury-related death over all ages. About 2,200 deaths were caused by burns and injuries related to fire in 2013. Often fires start at night, when family members are asleep. A working smoke alarm will cut the chances of dying in a fire in half.

Weekly Information Bulletin March 7, 2016 Welding Matters Welding Information Bulletin: Tempilstiks® Last we talked about preheat and the location of preheat measurements. Here we will talk about that requirement and the use of Tempilsticks®. Mil-Std-278 and Mil-Std-1688 is some of the fabrication standards that EB complies to. The following comes from MilStd-1688 which defines the requirement and location for inspecting preheat and interpass temperature measurements. T9074-AD-GIB-010/1688, Paragraph 13.6.4.1: Preheat temperature measurement. Preheat temperature shall be measured on the surface of the base material on the side from which welding will be performed and within 1 to 3 inches of the area to be welded. T9074-AD-GIB-010/1688, Paragraph 14.2.2: Weld joint surface preparation. Surfaces to be welded upon and adjacent surfaces for a distance of a minimum of 1 inch from the expected weld area shall be clean, dry and free of surface matter and defects such as: a. Paint, except for primer as allowed by the welding procedure (see 13.2.6). b. Oil, grease. c. Moisture. d. Objectionable scale. e. Objectionable oxide or rust. f. Objectionable nicks, gouges, and irregularities. g. Zinc, galvanizing, or thermal spray aluminum. h. Excess slag. It is our requirements at EB to keep the above contaminates away from the weld joint. The figure above is within SSP 13.16: Fitup of Weld Structure and illustrates how to check preheat and interpass temperatures and complies with the Mil-Standards stated earlier. Tempilstiks® is one of the ways of checking the preheat requirements, but is also a known contaminate in welding. Tempilstiks is petroleum based, hydrocarbon product, and Hydrocarbons create porosity in welds. Hydrocarbons such as oil, grease, Tempilstik marks, and paint, when heated, releases the Hydrogen-Carbon molecular bonds and form a hydrogen atom gas. The hydrogen gas in the presence of a molten weld puddle does not readily dissolve in liquid metal. The hydrogen gas gets trapped in pockets of bubbles in the weld metal much like Carbon-Dioxide forms pockets in a good loaf of Italian bread. It is a reminder that when porosity is found within a weld joint that it is never a good idea to weld over a porosity cluster in hopes of concealing or melting the porosity away. What tends to happen is molten metal solidifies around a hydrogen bubble. The gas pockets collect more gas bubbles when heated and tries to escape into the atmosphere through the molten metal. Much the same as soup bubbles works its way to the surface from the bottom of the pot. The porosity gases are trying to escape during the molten stage, but in the solid state leaves behind pockets and bubbles. The solution to porosity is a complete and thorough removal of any and all po- rosity bubbles. This will eliminate any possible reforming of new porosity indications in a weld joint. Editors Note - Welding Matters is an ongoing feature for the QP WIB to focus on the importance of welding and offer guidance, tips and suggestions for improving welding at Quonset Point.
