SUPPLY SCOPE

A Clear Supply Scope.
A Better Project Brief.

For quay-wall ties, marine anchorage, connection and adjustment components, and heavy machinery interfaces, JOTAIN confirms materials, processed components and accessories against the purchaser’s drawings and specifications.

Our scope
Product lists, materials and dimensions, threads and end processing, protection, inspection plans, marking and delivery records.
Engineering team
System design, design loads and fatigue assessment, exposure and design life, protection and cathodic interfaces, anchorage layout and final acceptance requirements.

ENGINEERING REQUIREMENTS

Match the Material to the Conditions

Loads, marine exposure, connection geometry and protection interfaces define the material and processing route. Project drawings and acceptance criteria govern the requirements.

01

Loads

Permanent, cyclic, impact and fatigue demand

02

Exposure

Atmospheric, splash, immersed or buried

03

Connections

Threads, couplers, clevises and adjustment

04

Protection

Coating, galvanising, cathodic interfaces and packing

Marine Conditions & Interfaces

Confirm project inputs from loading through to protection.

01 / STEEL COMPONENTS

Loading & Fatigue

Permanent and cyclic actions together

Material routes for quay-wall ties and marine machinery components must reflect combined actions. Design tie force, fatigue spectrum, impact and accidental loads, connection stiffness and adjustment needs define the supply requirements.

Inputs
Design loads, fatigue background, impact and accidental conditions, minimum service temperature and acceptance criteria.
Supply review
Confirm delivery condition against section size, target properties, machining allowance and specified testing.
02 / STEEL COMPONENTS

Exposure & Design Life

Protection for the actual marine zone

Atmospheric, splash, immersed and buried zones need different protection, thread sealing, packing and maintenance. Review the embedded-to-exposed boundary together with anchorage and coating continuity.

Inputs
Actual exposure zone, design life, maintenance and inspection arrangements.
Interfaces
Cathodic-protection interfaces and compatibility with accessories and the protection system.
03 / STEEL COMPONENTS

Threads & Surface Finish

Review strength, protection and assembly together

Thread standard, handedness, minimum engagement, articulation, locking and coating thickness must remain compatible after protection. Strength targets, protection and installation requirements need a coordinated specification.

Inputs
Thread standard, engagement length, coating or galvanising route, connection geometry and adjustment allowance.
Process
Confirm hydrogen risks and post-process controls for the material, strength and protection process.
