Forceful assembly
Thread Content
The tolerance specifications do not allow for forced assembly, but it is not clearly defined what constitutes forced assembly. Some organizations use jacks for alignment, even 32-ton jacks; the resulting stress levels can be imagined! Once polished upon completion, the appearance is good; how should it be evaluated during inspection?
This is the manufacturer’s lack of responsibility toward the product; forced assembly generates significant stress, which is harmful to the equipment. The manufacturing company should be responsible for the safety of the equipment.
Well, if it’s assembled tightly, it will also need to be torn apart with force
After assembly welding, heat treatment is sufficient; local electric heating can be used to eliminate stresses.
It’s a matter of relative strength when assembling; of course, jacks should definitely not be used, as the stress generated is too high. However, many construction companies are still using them nowadays, and the level of manufacturing needs to be improved. . .
As the owner and construction party, there should be a construction supervisor on site to oversee the entire installation process; the supervisor also has a responsibility to monitor this process. Forced assembly is absolutely not allowed, and if installation proves impossible, the design team should be asked to modify the design. As the construction party, you also cannot shirk your responsibilities, because you are accountable for the quality of your work.
It’s absolutely forbidden to assemble with excessive force; situations like those described by the original poster are not allowed! But it can be heat-treated!
If I can’t get it to fit, I use a jack to force it into place; as for stress, heat treatment is the only solution
