 HUSBANDRY
• Husband mean a farmer or a tiller of the soil,
and the word “husbandry” widened to
mean farming  and agriculture in general,
including the raising of livestock and poultry.

 CORROSION
IT IS A CHEMICAL REACTION OF METALS WITH
OXYGEN PRESENT IN AIR AND FORMS RUST OR
EATING WAY OF METALS
CAUSES ARE CERTAIN BACTERIA, COMPOSED
OF OXYGEN AND OTHER ELEMENTS, RUSTING
OF FERROUS METALS , AND ELECTROLYTIC
ACTION ON BOTH FERROUS AND NON FERROUS
METALS.
Mild steel, stainless steel , cast iron and wrought iron
are ferrous metals.Alluminium, copper, lead, nickel, tin,
titinum, zinc, and alloys as brass are non ferrous
metals.
48
 GALVANIC CORRISION
• WHEN TWO DISSIMLAR METALS
IMMERSED IN SEA WATER A POTENTIAL
DIFFERENCE PRODUCED OR SETUP
BETWEEN THEM.POTENTIAL CURRENT IS
CAUSED TO FLOW FROM ONE METAL TO
ANOTHER AND ONE OF THE METAL
GRADUALLY DISSOLVED.IF
STEEL(ANODE) AND GUNMETAL
(CATHODE) IMMERSED IN SEA WATER
THEN THE STEEL BEING EATEN AWAY

49
50
 UNIFORM CORRISION
• .IT ATTACKS OVER THE ENTIRE
SURFACE OF THE METAL. IN
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT , OXYGEN
IS PRIMARY CAUSE OF UNIFORM
CORRISION OF STEELS, AND OTHER
METALS AND ALLOYS.

51
52
 CREVICE CORRISION
• IT REFERS TO OCCURING IN
CONFINED SPACES TO WHICH THE
ACCESS OF THE WORKING FLUID
FROM THE ENVIRONMENT IS
LIMITED. GASKRTS, COUPLINGS,
JOINTS AND WASHERS. IT OCCURS
ON SHARP CORNERS AND BETWEEN
TWO METALS.
53
54
 PITTING CORRISION
• IT IS FORM OF EXTREMELY
LOCALIZED CORRISION THAT
CREATES SMALL HOLES IN
METALS.IT IS MORE DANGEROUS
THEN UNIFORM . IT IS MORE
DIFFICULT TO DETECT PREDICT
AND DESIGN AGAINST.

 EXAMINATION AND TEST OF HULL
STRUCTURE
• Unlike weapons and machinery whose
condition can largely be assessed during
operation, the state of the hull must be
investigated almost entirely by simple
tests. Regular inspection of all parts hull
structure and prompt rectification of
defects are essential. To ensure that it is
free of major material defects. 
• .  64
 EXAMINATION AND TEST OF HULL STRUCTURE
• Ensure prescribed measures for prevention of
deterioration and corrosion. 
• Visual examination by specialist departments is
formidable task.  Taking section at a time
whenever conditions permit, making a
operational

thorough examination and recording.   

• Visual inspection is a lengthy process it is most
inspection

necessary that everyone, especially those

responsible for particular compartments, should
assist the specialists task by taking every
opportunity to inspect, maintain and improve 65the
material state. 
 EXAMINATION AND TEST OF HULL STRUCTURE
• Rounds of Commanding Officers or
Heads of Departments provide
opportunity to focus attention upon aspect
of department and ship efficiency
Equipment required for examination
consists chipping hammer, a scraper, a
probe and a powerful torch.
• Inaccessible places & often wet and dirty
conditions, an assistant to write down the
particulars of an examination 66
 EXAMINATION AND TEST OF HULL STRUCTURE
• Before examination of a
compartment, department that preparations
may be made to move items and stores. .
• Full examination of areas necessitates prior
removal of fixtures, heavy fittings or
equipments which beyond the capacity
of ships staff, or entail unacceptable
dislocation of the ships operational routine.

 WHAT IS PAINT
• A COLOURED SUBSTANCE
WHICH IS SPREAD OVER A
SURFACE AND DRIES TO
LEAVE A THIN DECORATIVE
OR PROTECTIVE COATING.

86
 MAJOR INGREDIENTS OF
PAINTS
• PIGMENTS .It impacts the concentration of
paint. The pigments used in paint are fine
solids particles that are dispersed but not
soluble in the binder and solvent.It is a
colouring material in powder form mixed
with oil as clays, calcium carbonate ,mica,
silica, talc cum etc.

87
 SOLVENT
• IT IS LIQUID TO OBTAIN DESIRED
VISCOSITY AND FLOW OF THE PAINT .
• IT EVAPORATES TO LEAVE A SOLID DRY
FILM ON SURFACE.MOST COMMON
SOLVENT USED IN ARCHITECTURAL
PAINTS ARE WATER AND MINERAL
SPIRITS .WATER IS USED IN ACRYLIC
PAINTS BOTH INTERIER AND EXTERIER
WHILE MINERAL SPIRITS USED IN OIL
BASED PAINTS.
88
 BINDER
• PURPOSE IS IMPART ADHESION TO THE
LAYER .IT STRONGLY INFLUENCES SUCH
AS GLOSS TOUGNESS FLEXIBILITY AND
DURAABILITY . TYPES ARE DRYING OIL
NATURAL AND SYNETHETIC RESIGNS.

89
 ADDITIVES
• IT IS USED IN SMALL QUANTITIES
FOR ADDITIONAL CHARACTERSTICS.
• IMPROVE PRODUCTION AND
STORING PROPERTIES
• MAKE THE PAINT FLOW ON
SURFACE
• GIVE PLEASANT ODOR IN CASE OF
INTERIOR PAINTING.
• PROVIDE WATER PROOFING
CHARACTERSTICS.
