[0018] S1-3, the component assembly needs to be implemented on a flat site, and positioning baffle is arranged on the side to fix; before the profile assembly, the straightness of the profile needs to be checked, and the assembly can be performed only when the requirement is met, and the assembly gap is strictly controlled, and the excess height of the profile needs to be ground flat; after the component assembly is formed, the component assembly is placed on a special bracket for storage and transportation, and wooden pads need to be added to the weak structure part to ensure flatness. If there is a significant structure protrusion which is not convenient for stacking and storing, an independent bracket needs to be used for transportation.

[0019] S1-4, the main plate transport should use electromagnetic lifting to lift, and single-point lifting is strictly prohibited; when the finished product is lifted on the bracket, multiple-point lifting should be adopted according to the characteristics of the assembled part to disperse the stress points.

[0020] S1-5, the flatness of the plate surface should meet the standard requirement, and there should be no hard bending deformation, the straightness tolerance of the T profile is 1 m ± 1 mm, the side bending deviation of the rib plate, longitudinal girder and longitudinal wall in the assembled structure should be ≤4 mm in the full length range; the hard file position tolerance of the resistance flatness should be ≤2 mm.

[0021] The thin film cabin segmented construction control process includes segmented plate splicing, segmented sub-section assembly, segmented assembly, segmented welding, segmented moving and transporting and segmented precision process control, and involves 12 segments: left side bottom support structure 1, right side bottom support structure 2, left side bottom corner support structure 3, right side bottom corner support structure 4, left side side wall support structure 5, right side side wall support structure 6, left side top corner support structure 7, right side top corner support structure 8, left side top support structure 9, right side top support structure 10, left side thin film structure 11 and right side thin film structure 12; the thin film cabin horizontal requirement is 4 mm / 3 m, the segmented single surface flatness standard is 8 mm for a total of 10 surfaces, including the following steps: S2-1, the segmented plate splicing operation should be implemented on a special jig, and the upper surface of the jig should be free of welding scar protrusions; before the segmented plate splicing, the flatness of the plate should be checked; the overhanging area of the plate needs to be leveled by using wooden blocks, when the welding seam ends overhang the jig or are not in the strong file position of the jig, supporting wooden blocks need to be added during the welding process to avoid significant welding corner deformation; for the plate splicing involving thick plates, forced constraints can be directly applied on both sides of the welding seam by using pressing iron to control the welding deformation.

[0022] S2-2, when the segmented sub-section is assembled, the segment needs to be placed on a flat jig; before the parts are assembled, the straightness thereof should be checked, and the parts that do not meet the deviation requirement should be returned to the machining workshop; the assembly gap of the parts should be as small as possible, and non-welding methods such as magnetic attraction horse or pressing iron are used during the assembly; after the assembly of the parts is completed, the structure position is annealed by turning over to release the stress generated during the assembly and welding.

[0023] S2-3, the segmented assembly, the plate splicing should be implemented on a special plate splicing jig; if Figure 2As shown, the segmented jig uses an angle steel jig 13, with a CNC square plate 14 attached. Cutting of the upper surface is prohibited. The jig height requirement is ±2mm. Support templates should be installed around the free edges of the upper jig plate extending beyond the jig to ensure the flatness of the plate edges. During segmented assembly, the dimensions, shapes, and quantities of components and assemblies should be checked against the drawings; forced assembly is prohibited. The upper jig plate should fit snugly against the jig. When multiple plates are mounted, the welds between the plates should be done using submerged arc welding. The welding on the other side should be completed by submerged arc welding after the segment is flipped. The jig plate is fixed to the jig using a "7"-shaped clamp or a non-welded clamp. The clamping should be adjusted according to the actual segmentation. Additional measures are required. Direct welding of iron bars to the jig plate and jig is strictly prohibited. Welding jig supports onto the outer plate is not allowed. T-beams and bulkheads should be installed with a "zero gap". When installing plates on the platform or jig, pressure irons can be used locally to achieve a linear fit to prevent deformation. Direct cutting or other fire-related operations are prohibited on the sections. Heavy objects must not be piled on thin plate structures. On-site opening and plate edge trimming should be done with plasma cutting machines. Irregular parts such as arcs should be cut with templates. After the section is completed, a simulated loading of adjacent sections should be carried out. The standard for the flatness of the inner wall is 8mm (10 surfaces in total).

[0024] S2-4. Segmented welding should adopt a radial welding sequence from the center outwards and symmetrical skip welding to disperse welding heat input and reduce residual stress. When welding segmented structures, an even number of welders should weld symmetrically along the central axis of the segment. The welding sequence should follow these principles: first complete the butt welds between the frames, then weld the vertical fillet welds between the frames, and finally complete the transverse fillet welds between the frame and the plate frame. When performing vertical fillet welds, the upper weld should be completed first, and then the lower weld should be welded to suppress welding deformation.

[0025] S2-5. After the sections are removed from the tire and before welding, they must be turned over to the field. Before welding, the sections must be leveled. If they cannot be leveled, a total station must be used to check whether the sections are twisted. Welding can only be carried out after confirming that the twist is controlled within 10mm.

[0026] S2-6. After the tire is removed from the section and before the flame work, the section needs to be moved to the field and undergo a lot of back heating and flame work correction. It needs to be adjusted to a horizontal state and supported by tools such as round tubes to prevent deformation caused by the flame work.

[0027] S2-7. Requirements for support and piers after sectional tire removal: For large engine rooms, stern, bow, and transverse bulkheads, if the distance of the sectional extension to the pier is too large or the support strength of the pier is insufficient, the construction team and site supervisor must promptly report the process and construction method, and cooperate with the construction method opinions to increase support points and strengthen them to prevent deformation.
