LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

A. APPLICATION
This specification covers the lifting, tools applications, transportation and storage of CMI HRS
MODULES for HORIZONTAL GAS BOILERS from fabrication area up to site boiler house area.
The Handling of modules during fabrication and boiler erection are covered by respectively
Manufacturing and Erection specifications.

B. DEFINITION
CMI : Transport Purchaser or Buyer,
Client: Company which have awarded contract or purchase order to CMI,
Manufacturer: Company who has fabricated the goods for or on behalf of CMI,
Transport company: either the Forwarder, the vessel ‘s owner or the trailer’s owner which has
direct contract with CMI,
Subcontractor: same as Transport company
Users or others: company who will manipulate CMI equipment and appointed by
Subcontractor, Manufacturer or Client,

C. LIFTING FRAME DEVICES (LF)

Heavy pieces of boiler exchangers are supplied in modules by Manufacturer.
For each project, size, weight and quantity are defined in Purchase order and relevant drawings
(see appendix 3).
Each module is containing bundles of finned tubes which are supported by tube sheets. Each
tube sheet is bolted on transport frame (yellow pieces).
The connection between tube sheet and transport frame areas is the strongest place of the
module.

CMI LIFTING FRAME MUST BE USED FOR ALL MODULE LIFTING WORK.

The quantity of LF have to be defined considering quantity of modules, schedule and layout of
the work to be carried on for each project.

LF can be rented when available.

C.1. Lifting frame (LF)

Lifting Frame (LF) and accessories are usually supplied in separated parts (see
instructions in “General note” into Lifting Frame drawings).

One (1) set of LF is including (see P/L):

- One (1) LF marked C.M.I. CE.89/392 maximum 2100 KN, in loose pieces,

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 3 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

The LF and their equipments (included container) are devices and are the property of
CMI. Subcontractor or others users have to take care of them and are responsible for any
loss or damage . Users have to return them in the same conditions to CMI. Any cost borne
by CMI will be back charged to users.

Here after we will consider all places of application, where LF is needed. The quantity of LF is
defined by considering project requirements, distance, type and frequency of transports, and
schedule.

C.1.1. Sea Port of Departure

One (1) set of lifting frame marked C.M.I. CE.89/392 max: 2100 KN is supplied at departure
port for loading into vessel.
Subcontractor or others is “un-stuffing” and assembling the LF before arrival of Modules.
Once loading work is completed, he will disassemble the LF and “stuff” complete set into
container (with P/L).
If lifting (Load) certificate is required by local safety rules, the local Subcontractor is making
this certification with the cooperation of CMI, prior to any loading work.

C.1.2. Sea Port of Destination

One (1) lifting frame marked C.M.I. CE.89/392 max: 2100 KN needed for unloading of vessel
at destination port.

Subcontractor is “un-stuffing” and assembling the LF one week before arrival of Modules.
Once unloading work is completed, he will disassemble the LF and “stuff” complete set into
container.

IF lifting (Load) certificate is required by local rules and safety, the local Subcontractor is
making this certification with the cooperation of CMI, prior to any unloading work.

Note: Additional lifting frame is required when followings situations are met in the logistic
process of the project and without possibility of transfer of lifting frame:
• the modules cannot be transferred in one lot from port to site (with LF),
• there is several boilers delivered separately,
• there is river transport and additional intermediate ports,
• there is not hydraulic trailer for handling,

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 4 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

• the distance from port to next places such river port or site is too long and cannot allow
transfer of LF in due time,
• authority will not allow import of LF,

C.1.3. River Port of Destination

One (1) lifting frame marked C.M.I. CE.89/392 max: 2100 KN needed for unloading of barge
at destination port.

C.1.4. Site of erection

One (1) lifting frame marked C.M.I. CE.89/392 max: 2100 KN is needed for unloading of trailer
and to put onto Up-Righting frame nearby boiler house.

Note: when LF is supplied un-assembled to site, assembling must be done according

to procedure "Lifting frame assembling procedure 2E9768006 rev", and must be
certified by local authorities and according to local regulation.
After all bundles lifting works are completed, LF must be dismantled and “stuffed” into
container or trailer

C.1.5. Connexion to modules

For the connexion of LF to modules, there is 20 lifting lugs at the top of every modules, 2 (two)
lifting lugs per tube sheet.

The connection between lifting frame and module's lugs is made with upper shackles + slinks
+ Bottom shackles. Bottom shackles are connected directly to module’s lifting lugs.

C.2. Equipment (tools) supplied by Vessel or Subcontractor

To make the connection between LF and Vessel’s or crane's hooks, Owners or vendor has to
provide:
- 4 (four) slings and 4 (four) shackles used for the connection between lifting frame and crane's
hooks.
- Load capacity must consider,

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 5 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

Total weight = Module weight + LF (~20T) weight

- Load capacity must also be in accordance with port rules, national and international
regulations.
- The slings will have enough length in order to meet accepted angle slope (see Appendix 1
and lifting frame drawing).

Note: shackles required are as 3 inch type (see Appendix 1 sketch V ) or equivalent to fit in
provided CMI lifting frame log’s holes (diameter 85mm, length 115mm).

D. SHIPPING FRAMES (SFs) TOOLS

All the modules will be supplied with CMI shipping frames (yellow pieces) used for the complete
transport and transfer up to erection at site.

These shipping frames will be disassembled in separated parts during module site erection.

Once all separated parts are ready at site, they will be stuffed into container and sent to port of
departure.

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 6 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

CMI will give in due time instruction and destination where the lifting frame has to be shipped.

E. HANDLING WITH CRANES OR VESSEL’S OWN GEARS

The Modules’ lifting from vessel, from barge or any mean of transport, can be performed with
two main crane configurations.
The first one should be the preferred case.

E.1 With two cranes, two vessel’s own gears or double hook crane

Handle with two cranes or crane with two hooks is the better work and is recommended.
It will not be affected by the possible out of axle of module's gravity centre.

It is obviously required to synchronise the crane’s hooks to maintain the horizontality of the
modules during handling and hook down on trailer. Modules must be set on trailer platform
horizontally and all shipping supports touching simultaneously. No bending of Module is allowed.

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 7 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

E.2 With one crane or one vessel’s own gear with single hook

Handle with one crane or gear with single hook is requesting much more accurate attention
and experience. This is because it is affected by any asymmetric weight of module.
To work on this picture requires exact position of gravity centre of module and adjustment, by
carrier, of slings length in order to have horizontality of module when lifted.

In the case it remains being the only solution , carrier has to submit his solution and commitment
to meet our requirements to CMI LOGISTICS Dept. before starting any work.

E.3. Slings connecting angle

If due to the height limit, the angle of the connecting slings should exceed 60°, an intermediate
“swingle/spreader bar” has to be used. That “swingle/spreader bar” should be strong enough to
support the corresponding loads (modules gross weight + lifting frame + slings).

Out of axle and centre of gravity of each module is usually indicated in the module’s general
assembly drawings.

E.4. Module’s handling safety

No handling (lifting) of module is permitted without using the lifting frame, shackles and slings
duly connected.

During the lifting, set on trailer, and to avoid module’s internal damages, it is imperative to
maintain the module in horizontal plane position all time,
To avoid damages due to the possible turning or swinging during the loading and unloading, we
require ropes connected at each corner side of the module and hold by stevedores during all
work time.

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 8 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

F. HANDLING WITH THE HYDRAULIC TRAILER

Loading and unloading, by using trailers‘ hydraulic system, is a preferred alternative.
For this operation storage feet (stands) are needed.
Unloading on storage feet by using the hydraulic system of the trailers is mandatory.

CMI supplies : feet (stands) (1.200mm height) by containers.

Two (2) feet per tube sheet (shipping frame support beams) are provided.

Vendor supplies : wood (plank, board, sheets, timbers), rubbers or bricks which are requested
for level adjustment and to avoid steel to steel contact.

The storage feet have to be placed under both ends of the frame support beams .
Perfect alignment between shipping frame support beams and feet column centre lines are
required.

Two (2) feet per frame cross beam are provided.

Modules must be unloaded horizontally and weight must be transferred in the same time on all
feet.

Note: Before unloading, vendor must check that all feet heads are in horizontal plan and in
vertical position.

G. ROAD TRANSPORTATION
Modules’ transport by road is made with hydraulic trailer.
The length and quantity of axles modules will be designed according to Module’s weight, length
and local road load limitation.

G.1. Hydraulic trailer

Module must be supported on all Shipping Frame (SF) bottom supports.

Cantilevered portion, at both ends over last supports, is accepted.
All SF's supports have to wear on flat and horizontal trailer bed (avoid bending and twisting).

Hydraulic trailer with minimum length of 22 meter is mandatory (see Modules drawings Shipping
frame).

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 9 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

Hydraulic trailer about 3 meter width is recommended.

If the trailer has different width dimension, the vendor has to obtain CMI HRS LOGISTICS
agreement.

The trailer must have hydraulic height range of 450mm (mini to maxi vertical position) needed
for unloading on stands (1.200 mm high).

In case of, the trailer will not comply with above requirements, the subcontractor has to obtain
CMI HRS LOGISTICS agreement.

G.2. Trailer lashing and securing

The transport company is fully responsible for lashing and securing of the module on trailer bed.
We recommend the following lashing :

At the top: Located on UPPER lugs (yellow pieces), minimum 10 points, 5 both sides at the
connection between tube sheet and frame.

At the bottom: 5 both sides at the connection between tube sheet and frame cross beam.

Anti-slip sheets are used to avoid metallic contact between module SFs support beams and
trailer bed surface.

Chains or slings must be crossed to avoid any movement (frontward, backward and sideward)
of the modules during transportation.

ANY MOVE OF THE TRAILER IS FORBIDDEN WITHOUT LASHING AND SECURING OF

MODULES.

G.3. Declivity

Modules maximum declivity allowed during transport is 10 % on the length and 5 % on the width.
In case of larger point declivity, it shell be corrected by adapting the hydraulic level of the trailer.

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

H. SEA TRANSPORTATION

H.1. Module transportation

All modules have to be transported UNDER DECK.

For any derogation, vendor must have to obtain CMI LOGISTICS WRITTEN AGREEMENT.

H.2. Loading, stowage and stacking in the ship

It is allowed to pile (stack) Modules 2 tiers.

The upper module weight cannot be higher than the bottom module.
On this base for some projects 3 tiers piling (stacking) can be considered for small module. But
CMI LOGISTICS MANAGER acceptance is required.

It is forbidden:
- To stack cargo on the top of the modules,
- To push or pull the module,
- To weld on the modules or frames,
- To hit, to hang, put any stopping on any part of module than specified.

If required, as built stacking frames can be used, but only after CMI LOGISTICS MANAGER
WRITTEN AGREEMENT and with a 45 days pre-notice.

It is recommended to store the modules as near as possible to the centre of gravity of the vessel
to minimise the acceleration during the rolling and the pitching.
Shipping frames are designed to accept maximum acceleration according to here after data,

H.3. Lashing, stopping and securing

The vendor, subcontractor and/or owner are responsible for the lashing and securing of our
modules on vessel deck during transport.
Subcontractor and/or owner has to supply all steel plates or wood needed for deck weight
repartition.

It is mandatory to make lashing, stopping and securing on each individual Modules.

The following requirements are considered as a minimum and should be improved by
subcontractor, based on their experience, the vessel type, the sailing route, the time, the
expected weather conditions,... in such a way to avoid any movement of Module.

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 12 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

It is understood that the lashing and securing have to be improved by transport company based
on their own experience, the vessel type and size, the sailing route, the time, the expected
weather conditions, …..in such a way to avoid any movement of each module.

Lashing must be always UP side to DOWN side, crossed and can be fixed:

Top Module: 20 points, 10 both sides located on the longitudinal UPPER lugs (yellow
piece) at the connection with tube sheets,

Bottom Module: 20 points, 10 both sides located on the longitudinal LOWER frame cross
beam (yellow pieces) at the connection with tube sheets.

It is imperative to place « anti slip » sheets between the wearing area of the module supports
and the floor and module to module connexion.
It can be convenient, for a better lashing, to weld angles/stoppers against sides of the SFs
support beams (not welded on it),

NO MOVE OF THE VESSEL IS ALLOWED WITHOUT COMPLETE LASHING and

SECURING.

LASHING and SECURING CANNOT BE REMOVED UNTILL TIME of UNLOADING at

DESTINATION

H.4. Lifting frame transport

In case of the assembled LF’s transport, stowage on Modules during sea transportation is not
permitted. The LF is transported at separate place, on platform or support and under deck when
possible.

I. INLAND WATER TRANSPORT

An accurate attention on the Module’s supports equipment is required in order to secure the cargo
and to avoid any movement during transport.
Stacking of modules is accepted.
The vendor, subcontractor and/or owner are responsible for the lashing and securing of our
modules on barge or pontoon deck during transport.

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 13 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

If Modules are directly put on barge or pontoon deck, the subcontractor has to provide “anti-slip”
material under SFs supports and requested lashing and securing according to owner’s
experience and above recommendations (sea transport) .
Vendor, subcontractor and/or owner has to supply all steel plates or wood needed for deck weight
repartition.

For RO-RO application the use of hydraulic trailer, or auxiliary jacking system equipment is
allowed as an alternative to crane.
Feet (stands) can be used for transportation, but CMI require from subcontractor larger stands in
Modules‘ corner, steel plates for weight repartition and additional cross lashing chains to improve
points of stability.
A previous study is submitted for acceptance and supervision of CMI LOGISTICS MANAGER.

THE BARGE OR PANTOON CANNOT MOVE WITHOUT LASHING AND SECURING ARE
COMPLETED.

J. STORAGE
During transport from manufacturing and up to final erection area, Modules will be stored several
times on stands.
This storage can take place in manufacturer’s facilities, in departure and arrival port, in temporary
place on the way going to site and in erection site.

J.1 STORAGE CONDITIONS

They have to be placed in area, easy to access, enough for trailer manoeuvre, and where there is
no risk of accident or mechanical damages.

J.1.1 Standard Site Conditions

If there isn’t any material technical restrictions, they are packed for 6 month external storage at
normal weather conditions such as :
Temperature: from 0°c up to 30°c,
Wind: up to 40 km/h,
Humidity: 40%,
Environment not aggressive (to be checked),

The modules are covered with tarpaulin to prevent from sun and rain. They are hooped with
ropes or straps at 10 places in the length.
CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 14 / 20
 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

All sharp places are protected with wooden planks and hold with tapes.
The modules are stored on stands (usual procedure). The distance between each module is 2
meters side-by-side and 3 meter at both ends.

During storage period, it is recommended to check, once a week, the packing, ropes and straps,
external exchanger body, stands horizontality, and storage ground stability.
For long time storage (more than 6 months), and upon local country conditions, it is mandatory
to secure stands in the length and in the width with steel bracing in four places at least. Any cuts
or tear off must be repaired with tape.
Any improvement or repairs must be done urgently and with CMI acceptance.

J.1.2. Extreme Site Conditions

For extreme weather (cold, rain, wind, ice, sun) and environment (salt, chemical acidity, .)
conditions, it is mandatory to provide protected or covered storage.
When it is not possible, CMI agreement is required that MODULES technically accept local site
conditions. Additional check is made in order to prevent any inside residual water.

An additional heavy density tarpaulin ( about 500gr/m²) must be provided (by others) to cover
completely and externally the modules.
Additional ropes or steel hooping (at least 10) are placed at equal distance in the length to
tighten it on module body .
We draw attention not to damage first tarpaulin, to bend any small fittings or to protect open or
sharp pieces during this operation.

In case of high velocity wind it is requested to put rope or plastic wire net (by others) as last
layer to tight tarpaulin on module body.
It is mandatory to secure stands in the length and in the width with steel bracing.
They must be in the four corners and in the middle of module. The connection between stands
and module shipping frames must also be fixed.
CMI agreement must be required before putting and spot welding (when necessary) bracings
on stands and shipping frames.

During storage period, it is recommended to check, once a week, the packing, ropes and straps,
tarpaulin, external exchanger body, stands horizontality, and storage ground stability.
Any repair must be done urgently after CMI acceptance.

J.2. STORAGE AREA

The module storage area has to be prepared in such a way to warranty enough levelled surface
and to be able to support a load pressure around 45 ton/m².
The last surface area‘s layer must be strong enough, well drained (particularly when in concrete
or tarmac), slow slopes and easy to access for large and heavy trailers.
The needed surface will include Module’s surface area with an additional free space of 45
meter long, in front of the last modules’ row, to let the trailer manoeuvring for loading in and
unloading out Modules’ operation from stands.

CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 15 / 20

 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

Outdoor storage is allowed.

J.3. STORAGE FEET

CMI supplies project quantity of feet (stands 1.200mm high) needed for storage of modules.

Subcontractor supplies wooden plank, board, sheets, timbers, and rubbers or bricks which
are requested to avoid steel to steel contact, and to adjust level to match with hydraulic trailer
height.

J.4. STORAGE FEET (STANDS) POSITIONING

20 storage feet (stands), two lines of 10, are needed per module.
Those feet are designed to support, all together and vertically, the double of the module weight.
Anti slip and/or wood timber or boards have to be placed in the area between feet head and SFs
support beams (avoid steel/steel contact).

The feet have to be positioned by use of a water level in order to warranty their verticality.

The top of all feet for same module must be at the same level and horizontal plane. Level is
corrected by adding planks and plywood.

Feet are reinforced on 3 sides by stiffeners and base plate is 600mmx600mm.

For module’s storage, the feet must be orientated “ no stiffener to trailer side “.
CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 16 / 20
 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

Feet are positioned as near as possible of trailer width.

J.5. UNLOADING ON FEET BY MEANS OF HYDRAULIC TRAILER

Module will be approached to the feet as close as possible without transfer of weight.
The horizontal position of the hydraulic trailer should be obtained, before the transfer of the
weight, by lateral and/or longitudinal adjustments in accordance with the indications given by a
water level positioned on the trailer itself.
Small difference of level between module and feet should be compensated by adding plywood
(1, 2, 3 mm thick) on the feet.

As soon as, stands and SFs support beams centre lines are both matching, trailer can start
jacking down and the transfer of the weight.
The transfer of the weight from trailer to storage feet MUST be done on all feet simultaneously.

This is to warranty:

o exact vertical pressure,

o constant load repartition,
o avoidance of storage feet “overload”
o module bending or twisting.

K. SITE RELOCATION

More often, the modules are stored in site area or nearby. They must be moved from this storage
place up to the erection area or boiler house.

This work is carried out by the mean of hydraulic trailer.

The loading of the module from storage feet are made according to same process as in §IX.4.

Very accurate attention is taken by driver and helpers when trailer is driven between module and
feet (risk of module’s collapsing).
The hydraulic trailer must load the module simultaneously (avoid feet overload).
Once the module is loaded the convoy will move slowly, without shocks up to boiler erection
area, where one Erection Lifting Frame is ready for unloading.

This work will be made with and under the authority of the site manager.

L. JACKING SYSTEM DEVICES

Jacking up modules is allowed. Twenty (20) jacks are needed.

Those hydraulic jacks, have to work together and with the same speed to guarantee the
horizontality of the modules and the constant load repartition on all the SFs support beams
during all time of lifting-up.

Jacks are exactly placed under the SFs support beams or the tube sheet ends.
Previous study is recommended before any work and submitted to CMI LOGISTICS MANAGER.
CMI-HRS LOGISTICS / G. FARINA 19/04/16 – GENERAL HANDLING PROCEDURE Page 17 / 20
 General LOGISTICS Specifications

LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT 2.E.9.768.002 Rev. C

For safety and to avoid module damage, jacking will be done by using temporary “dunage” supports
which are adjusted in sequence with jacks elevation.

M. REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION
