ELEMENT 7.1 - INTRODUCTION TO BOLT TENSIONING IN THE WIND INDUSTRY USING POWERED TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES
Learning objectives:
78) The participants can explain how hydraulic tensioning tools relate to different bolt tensioning tasks (Knowledge, intermediate level)
79) The participants can explain how to determine if equipment is correctly calibrated and ready to be used (Knowledge, intermediate level)
80) The participants can explain how bolt tensioning is carried out using powered equipment (Knowledge, intermediate level)
81) The participants can discuss why it is important to correctly adhere to procedures and administrative tasks in relation to completing bolt tensioning tasks (Knowledge, intermediate level)
82) The participants can discuss the consequences of incorrect bolt tensioning and parameters that influence bolt tensioning (Knowledge, intermediate level)
83) The participants can recognise the scope and requirements of the bolt tensioning scenario (Knowledge, basic level)
The instructor shall:
Explain and ask reflective questions about how bolt tensioning is performed in the wind industry using powered equipment, including:
a. 1-stage and2-stage tensioning and when they are used
b. 2-stage tensioning and why the bolt is tensioned twice at 100%
Present and explain how hydraulic tensioning tools work and how they relate to different tensioning tasks, including:
a.
tensioners
b. thread holding devices for threads on the opposite end to the tensioner
c.
the importance of thread pitch protrusion
d.
spacers
Present the work instructions for the scenario and lead a discussion on adhering to bolt tensioning work instructions, company procedures, manuals and equipment care and maintenance, including:
