Documents. This is a general summary and is not intended to be complete and all inclusive of the required

Work items.

1.02 PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

A. Description of Total Project: The S-21 structure is a reinforced concrete, gated spillway with discharge controlled by three-cable operated, vertical lift gates. Operation of the gates is automatically controlled

so that the gate hydraulic operating system opens or closes the gates in accordance with the operational

criteria. The structure is located near the mouth of Canal 1 at its junction with Levee 31E and about

3,500 feet from the shore of Biscayne Bay, in Homestead Florida. The following list outlines the scope

of work:

1. Install active cathodic protection on structure except upper and lower decks utilizing approved

subcontractor.

2. Replace 3 maintenance platforms (lower decks) and 3 operating platforms (upper decks) with

precast units utilizing stainless steel reinforcement. This will require the removal and

replacement of the gate operators.

3. Repair concrete spalls.

4. Remove and isolate embeds as described in plans and specifications.

5. Remove and reinstall all equipment on the operating platform. All equipment shall be realigned

in accordance with section 01670 of the technical specifications. Replace existing permanent

wiring, conduits, spacers, boxes, and supports as required to restore structure to original

condition.

6. Replace two existing light poles and light fixtures.

7. Install passive cathodic protection system on upstream wing walls.

8. Two of the three gates must be in full operational mode at all times as described in sub section

1.07. B.

9. Provide a crane to lift and hold inoperable gates.

10. The contractor shall subcontract to Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute of Florida Atlantic University to disassemble, protect, reassemble, and test the manatee protection system. They

are located at 5600 US 1 North, Fort Pierce, Florida 34946 and the contact person is Larry

Taylor at 772-242-2258.

1.03 RELATED CONTRACT ACTIVITIES:

A. Before work is started on a bay, the manatee protection system for that bay shall be disassembled and

the sensors protected. The manatee protection system for the two operational gates shall remain in service. Upon completion of work in each bay the manatee protection system shall be reinstalled,

tested and placed into service. All underwater debris shall be removed. All work on the manatee

protection system must be performed by Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute of Florida Atlantic

University.

1.04 WORK PERFORMED BY OTHERS:

A. N/A

1.05 CONTRACTOR'S USE OF PREMISES: See General Terms & Conditions Article 6.11.

A. During construction activities, the CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for maintaining all access

roads in good condition, including grading and drainage. See General Terms & Conditions Article

6.13.


1.06 DISTRICT'S USE OF PREMISES:

A. Partial District Occupancy: The DISTRICT reserves the right to occupy and to place and install

equipment in areas of the Project, prior to Substantial Completion provided that such occupancy does

not interfere with completion of the Work. Such placing of equipment and partial occupancy shall not

constitute acceptance of the Work.

1.07 WORK SEQUENCE, COORDINATION ACTIVITIES AND SCHEDULED DATES:

A. General: The CONTRACTOR will coordinate its work with other adjacent contractors, landowners

and DISTRICT activities, with specific attention to access and staging areas. Construction sequence

shall be determined by CONTRACTOR subject to the following needs for continuous access and

operation by others.

B. The work sequencing and operational requirements are as follows:

1. The Contractor shall follow the sequence listed below. Any variance must be approved in

advance by the District.

2. All work affecting the normal operation of any gate must be completed between October 31,

2012 and April 30, 2013. All gates shall be fully operable by April 30, 2013.

3. Work shall proceed on only one bay at a time. The remaining two bays shall remain in service

continuously. The Contractor should expect normal (including telemetry control) operation of

the remaining gates 24 hours per day. If the Contractor performs work in a bay with an operable gate, the Contractor will be given no less than 4 hours warning to vacate the bay if the

District needs to discharge water through that bay.

4. The gate on the bay that is being worked on must be operational when the Contractor leaves the

site for the night unless a crane is available as described below.

5. Until all gates are fully operable, the Contractor shall provide a crane, equipment and staff on

site to lift and secure the inoperable gate within eight (8) hours from the time of original

notification by the District. Once the gate has been lifted, the Contractor shall provide the

required staff to raise or lower the gate as directed by the District on an hourly basis 24 hours a

day. The tailwater stage at this site fluctuates due to tides which may require hourly gate

adjustments. The Contractor shall provide a crane that can lift the gate. The gate weight is

21,000 pounds and the total vertical lift force required is approximately 26,000 pounds. The District estimates that this crane will be required to lift and secure the inoperable gate for two

(2) separate events with a duration of four (4) days each.

6. The Contractor shall provide all equipment, rigging, tackle, and slings necessary for the crane to

lift and hold the gate in the raised position. The District will not take possession of this

equipment. The gate lifting design plan shall be submitted to District for review prior to

construction. The Contractor shall perform an onsite demonstration of the crane by lifting and holding the gate in the first bay to be worked on after this gate has been disconnected from its

cable drum operating system. This test shall be observed by District field station staff and shall

be successfully completed before starting work on the structure modification.

SECTION 01015 DEFINITIONS AND STANDARDS

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.01 SCOPE

A. Definitions:

:

1. A substantial amount of specification language constitutes definitions for terms found in other

areas of Contract Documents including drawings which must be recognized as diagrammatic in

nature and not completely descriptive of requirements indicated.

2. Certain terms used in the Contract Documents are defined in the General Terms & Conditions.

Definitions and explanations are not necessarily either complete or exclusive but are general for

the work.

3. The term “DISTRICT”, as defined in the General Terms & Conditions and used in these

specifications, is further defined as the District or District’s authorized representative, which

may include, but is not limited to, the Design Engineer or Construction Manager.

B. General Requirements: General requirements are the provisions or requirements of Division 1 sections

which apply to the entire work of the Contract.

1.02 FORMAT AND SPECIFICATION EXPLANATIONS

A. Format Explanation: The format of principal portions of these specifications can be described as

follows, although other portions may not fully comply and no particular significance will be attached

to such compliance or noncompliance.

:

1. Sections and Divisions: For convenience, basic unit of specification text is a "section", each

unit of which is named and numbered. These are organized into related families of sections,

and various families of sections are organized into "divisions", which are recognized as the

present industry consensus on uniform organization and sequencing of specifications. The

section title is not intended to limit meaning or content of section, nor to be fully descriptive of

requirements specified therein, nor to be an integral part of text.

2. Section Numbering: Used for identification and to facilitate cross-references in contract

documents. Sections are placed in numeric sequence; however, numbering sequence is not

complete, and listing of sections in Table of Contents at beginning of Contract Documents must

be consulted to determine numbers and names of specification sections in these Contract

Documents.

3. Page Numbering: Numbered independently for each section. Section number is shown with

page number at bottom of each page to facilitate location of text.

4. Parts: Each section of these specifications generally has been subdivided into three (3) basic

parts for uniformity and convenience (Part 1 "General", Part 2 "Products", and Part 3

"Execution"). These parts do not limit the meaning of text within. Some sections may not

contain all three parts when not applicable, or may contain more than three parts to add clarity

to organization of section.

5. Imperative Language: Used generally in specifications. Except as otherwise indicated,

requirements expressed imperatively are to be performed by the CONTRACTOR. For clarity

of reading, at certain locations contrasting subjective language is used to describe

responsibilities which must be fulfilled indirectly by the CONTRACTOR or, when so noted, by

others.

6. Specialists, Assignments: In certain instances, specification text requires that specific work be

assigned to specialists or expert entities who must be engaged for performance of those units of

work. These must be recognized as special requirements over which the CONTRACTOR has


no choice or option. These assignments must not be confused with, and are not intended to

interfere with, normal application of regulations, union jurisdictions and similar conventions.

Nevertheless final responsibility for fulfillment of the entire set of requirements remains with

the CONTRACTOR.

7. Trades: Except as otherwise specified or indicated, the use of titles such as "carpentry" in

specification text, implies neither that the work must be performed by an accredited or

unionized tradesperson of corresponding generic name (such as "carpenter"), nor that specified

requirements apply exclusively to work by tradespersons of that corresponding generic name.

B. Specification Content: Because of methods by which this project specification has been produced,

certain general characteristics of contents and conventions in use of language are explained as follows:

1. Specifying Methods: The techniques or methods of specifying requirements varies throughout

text, and may include "prescriptive", "compliance with standards", "performance",

"proprietary", or a combination of these. The method used for specifying one unit of work has

no bearing on requirements for another unit of work.

2. Overlapping and Conflicting Requirements: Where compliance with two (2) or more industry

standards or sets of requirements is specified, and overlapping of those different standards or

requirements establishes different or conflicting minimums or levels of quality, notify the

DISTRICT for a decision as specified in the General Terms & Conditions.

3. Abbreviations: Throughout the Contract Documents are abbreviations implying words and

meanings which will be appropriately interpreted. Specific abbreviations have been

established, principally for lengthy technical terminology, and in conjunction with coordination

of specification requirements, with notations on drawings and in schedules. These are normally

defined at first instance of use. Organizational and association names and titles of general

standards are also abbreviated.

1.03 DRAWING SYMBOLS

1.04

: Except as otherwise indicated, graphic symbols used on Drawings are those

symbols recognized in the construction industry for purposes indicated. Refer instances of uncertainty to the

DISTRICT for clarification.

INDUSTRY STANDARDS - APPLICABILITY: Applicable standards of construction industry have the

same force and effect, and are made a part of Contract Documents by reference, as if copied directly into the

Contract Documents, or as if published copies were bound herewith. Referenced standards referenced

directly in the Contract Documents or by governing regulations have precedence over non-referenced

standards which are recognized in industry for applicability to work.

END OF SECTION


SECTION 01300 SUBMITTALS

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.01 SUMMARY

A. This Section includes definitions, descriptions, transmittal, and review of "Compliance" and

"Miscellaneous" Submittals.

:

1.02 GENERAL INFORMATION

A. Definitions:

:

1. Compliance Submittals include shop drawings, product data, and samples which are prepared

by the CONTRACTOR, Subcontractor, manufacturer, or Supplier and submitted by the

CONTRACTOR to the DISTRICT as a basis for approval of the use of Equipment and

Materials proposed for incorporation in the Work or needed to describe installation, operation,

maintenance, or technical properties.

a. Shop drawings include custom-prepared data of all types including drawings, diagrams,

performance curves, material schedules, templates, instructions, and similar information

not in standard printed form applicable to other projects.

b. Product data includes standard printed information on materials, products and systems

not custom-prepared for this Project, other than the designation of selections from

available choices.

c. Samples include both fabricated and unfabricated physical examples of materials,

products, and Work; both as complete units and as smaller portions of units of Work;

either for limited visual inspection or (where indicated) for more detailed testing and

analysis. Mock-ups are a special form of samples which are too large to be handled in

the specified manner for transmittal of sample Submittals.

2. Miscellaneous Submittals are those technical reports, administrative Submittals, certificates,

and guarantees not defined as shop drawings, product data, or samples.

a. Technical reports include laboratory reports, tests, technical procedures, technical

records, CONTRACTOR'S design analysis and CONTRACTOR'S survey field notes for

construction staking, before cross-sections and after cross-sections.

b. Administrative Submittals are those nontechnical Submittals required by the Contract

Documents or deemed necessary for administrative records. These Submittals include

maintenance agreements, workmanship bonds, Project photographs, physical work

records, statements of applicability, copies of industry standards, as-constructed data,

security/protection/safety data, and similar type Submittals.

c. Certificates and guarantees are those Submittals on Equipment and Materials where a

written certificate or guarantee from the manufacturer or Supplier is called for in the

Specifications.

d. Reports as required by Contract describing CONTRACTOR'S means and methods for

items such as dewatering, earth and water retaining, erosion/turbidity control, and safety

plans.

3. Refer to ARTICLE 1.03 of this Part for detailed lists of documents and specific requirements.

B. Quality Requirements:

1. Submittals such as shop drawings and product data shall be of the quality for legibility and

reproduction purposes. Every line, character, and letter shall be clearly legible. Drawings such

as reproducibles shall be useable for further reproduction to yield legible hard copy.


2. Documents submitted to the DISTRICT that do not conform to these requirements shall be

subject to rejection by the DISTRICT, and upon request by DISTRICT, CONTRACTOR shall

resubmit conforming documents. If conforming Submittals cannot be obtained, such

documents shall be retraced, redrawn, or photographically restored as may be necessary to meet

such requirements. CONTRACTOR'S (or his Subcontractor's) failure to initially satisfy the

legibility quality requirements will not relieve CONTRACTOR (or his Subcontractors) from

meeting the required schedule for Submittal of shop drawings and product data.

C. Language and Dimensions:

1. All words and dimensional units shall be in the English language.

2. Metric dimensional unit equivalents may be stated in addition to the English units.

D. Submittal Completeness:

1. Submittals shall be complete with respect to dimensions, design criteria, materials of

construction, and other information specified to enable the DISTRICT to review the

information effectively.

2. Where standard drawings are furnished which cover a number of variations of the general class

of equipment, each such drawing shall be individually annotated to describe exactly which parts

of the drawing apply to the equipment being furnished. Use hatch marks to indicate variations

that do not apply to the Submittal. The use of "highlighting markers" is not an acceptable

means of annotating Submittals. Such annotation shall also include proper identification of the

Submittal permanently attached to the drawing.

3. Reproduction or copies of Contract Drawings or portions thereof will not be accepted as

complete fabrication or erection drawings. The Contractor may use a reproduction of the

DISTRICT-prepared Contract Drawings for erection drawings such as to indicate information

on erection or to identify detail drawing references. Where the drawings are revised to show

this additional CONTRACTOR information, the DISTRICT'S title block shall be replaced with

a CONTRACTOR'S title block and the DISTRICT'S professional seal shall be removed from

the drawing. The CONTRACTOR shall revise these erection drawings for subsequent

DISTRICT revisions to the Contract Drawings.

required to provide baseline and status data in electronic format.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall submit a detailed construction baseline cost loaded schedule showing all

work required in their contract and scheduled within the time constraints set forth in their contract.

The DISTRICT will review and comment on the Construction Baseline Schedule submittal. Upon

acceptance, the CONTRACTOR shall furnish the DISTRICT electronic format PDF files of the accepted Construction Baseline Schedule as required in this specification. The CONTRACTOR shall

not change the accepted Construction Baseline Schedule without prior concurrence of the DISTRICT.

Once accepted, the Construction Baseline Schedule shall be updated to show actual progress. Any

proposed changes in the schedule activities, logic, activity constraints, other than progress, shall be

incorporated into a request for a revision to the accepted Construction Baseline Schedule and

submitted for review and acceptance.

C. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for coordinating its own schedules (including

subcontractors) as well as the construction activities of others as required to fully execute the Work.

The DISTRICT’s goal is to maintain the overall Construction Program Schedule, of which the

CONTRACTOR’s Construction Schedule will be a part.

1.02 SOFTWARE/INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS:

A. The CONTRACTOR shall use Oracle/Primavera Project Manager latest version or Oracle/Primavera

Contractor latest version for creating and updating all construction schedules and reports.

B. To ensure compatibility for DISTRICT asset accounting, the DISTRICT will provide an asset

accounting Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to be entered into the WBS structure of the scheduling

software as referenced in Section 2.02. The Cost Loaded Schedule shall be used as the basis for

payment.

1.03 QUALITY ASSURANCE:

A. The CONTRACTOR shall perform the work covered by this Section with personnel having substantial

experience in the use of the latest version of Oracle Primavera scheduling software on construction

projects for the development and maintenance of the schedule throughout the project duration.

B. It is the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR to work with each subcontractor and supplier to obtain

information pertinent to the planning and updating of their respective activities in the schedules.

1.04 DEALING WITH SUBSTITUTES:

A. All versions of the CONTRACTOR’s Construction Schedule (including Construction Schedule

Revisions) shall be based solely on the WORK as awarded, and shall exclude any substitute proposals,

even if the CONTRACTOR pursues a substitution in accordance with the provisions of the Contract.

B. The DISTRICT’s final determination on any proposed substitutions may not be made until after the

CONTRACTOR’s Construction Schedule is prepared and accepted. Accepted proposed substitutions shall be handled in the schedule as change orders.

1.05 USE OF FLOAT:

A. Total Float is the amount of time a scheduled activity can be delayed without delaying the completion

of the Work beyond the contractually required end date. Contract Float is the number of days between


the CONTRACTOR’s anticipated date for early completion of the WORK, or specified part, and the

corresponding Contract Time. Total Float and Contract Float belong to the project and are not for the

exclusive benefit of any party. They shall be available to the DISTRICT, their consultants, or the

CONTRACTOR to accommodate changes in the WORK or to mitigate the effect of events which may

delay performance or completion. The DISTRICT will monitor and optimize the use of float for the

benefit of the Project.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall adjust or remove any float suppression techniques (e.g., preferential sequencing, out-of-sequence activity relationships, crew movements, equipment use, form reuse, etc.),

extended durations, imposed dates and others, as a prerequisite to a request for an increase in Contract

Price or Contract Time. Use of constraints should be minimized and require approval by the

DISTRICT.

1.06 EARLY COMPLETION:

A. An early completion schedule is one which anticipates completion of all or a specified part of the work ahead of the corresponding Contract Time. Since Contract Total float belongs to the project, the

CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to any extension in Contract Time or recovery for any delay

incurred because of extensions in an early completion date until all Contract Total float is used or

consumed and performance or completion of the WORK extends beyond the Contract Time. The

accepted baseline schedule must have a single longest path with zero total float. Multiple longest paths

are not acceptable.

1.07 NON-COMPLIANCE:

A. The DISTRICT shall refuse to recommend/authorize progress payment in the event of the CONTRACTOR’s failure, refusal or neglect to provide the required schedule information, since this

will preclude the proper evaluation of the CONTRACTOR’s progress. Remedies for the

CONTRACTOR’s failure, neglect or refusal to comply with the requirements of this Section are in

addition to, and not in limitation of, those provided under other sections of the Contract.

review and acceptance within 15 calendar days after Contract Execution. It will be reviewed for

conformance to the requirements of the Contract Documents. If the schedule is not accepted and

requires revisions, the CONTRACTOR will revise this Initial Construction Baseline Schedule and

resubmit it for review and acceptance within 10 calendar days.

B. Schedule Naming Structure: Once the Baseline Schedule accepted, it becomes the CONTRACTOR’S Baseline Revision 0 Schedule and is the basis for monitoring the CONTRACTOR’S progress against

milestones, Contract Time, and the evaluation and reconciliation of extensions in Contract Time. From

then on, all activities and their relationships may not be changed, added, or deleted without the prior

approval of the DISTRICT. The CONTRACTOR’S Construction Baseline Revision 0 schedule must

be revised when it is no longer useful as a status and control mechanism as determined by the

DISTRICT. All changes must be coordinated with and approved by the DISTRICT. Contract Time

(including all contracted milestones) cannot be changed without a formal Change Order approved by

the DISTRICT. When a revision to the Construction Baseline Schedule is required, a new revised

Construction Baseline Schedule shall be submitted in accordance with change procedures, for review

and acceptance by the DISTRICT. Revisions to the Construction Baseline Schedule shall follow the

naming sequence listed below: (commas (“,” or ampersands (“&”) cannot be used in the naming structure because they are recognized as commands by Primavera).

progress added. Progress is Actual Cost earned, Actual Cost %, Actual Duration %, Actual Start Date

and/or Actual Finish date and Actual Units Completed (for resource loading).

B. The Construction Schedule Update is submitted by the CONTRACTOR each month or each week as

the DISTRICT directs the CONTRACTOR based upon the duration of the Contract. The Construction

Schedule Update will indicate actual performed work and work forecast through project completion. The actual schedule data shall record when work was performed. Forecast data will be calculated by

the schedule.

C. All out of sequence activities that originally had a finish to start relationship, but became a start to start or finish to finish relationship must be corrected in the Construction Schedule Update. For other out of

sequence relationships, a revision to the baseline is required.

D. Each Construction Schedule Update shall be named beginning with the Accepted Baseline Number followed by the Update number beginning with “1A” as follows:

Project Name – R0B-U1A 1st submitted update of the accepted baseline R0B, which was

rejected.

Project Name – R0B-U1B Resubmittal of 1st update, which was accepted.

Project Name – R0B-U2A 2nd submitted update of the accepted baseline R0B, which was rejected.

Project Name – R0B-U2B Resubmittal of 2nd update, which was accepted.

PART 3 - EXECUTION

3.01 MONTHLY UPDATE CYCLE:

A. Schedule Update Submittals are due every 30 days and are to be attached to each Application for

Payment. The Schedule Update Total Actual Cost to date must match the Application for Payment Work Completed and Stored to Date amount. The DISTRICT will advise the CONTRACTOR of any

change to the due dates.

3.02 CHANGES:

A. Within ten (10) days after a schedule problem is identified by either CONTRACTOR or DISTRICT, or

at any time the percentage of the dollar value for completed work is 10 percent less than the value of

the scheduled work, the CONTRACTOR shall submit a Construction Recovery Schedule that identifies the cause of the Change and any actions required by the CONTRACTOR to recover the

schedule and complete the Work within Contract Time. The CONTRACTOR shall promptly undertake

appropriate action, at no additional cost to the DISTRICT, to recover the schedule whenever the

current schedule shows that the CONTRACTOR did not or can not achieve a milestone established in

the Contract.

B. Appropriate recovery actions include, but are not limited to, assignment of additional labor, subcontractors, equipment, shift or overtime work, expediting of submittal or deliveries, or any

combination of thereof. Overlapping of activities or sequencing changes shall be deemed appropriate

only if properly substantiated in the submittal. Recovery plans that are accepted by the DISTRICT that

add, delete, or change activities, activity relationships, durations or constraints and cost or resource

loading must be submitted as a Revision to the Construction Baseline Schedule with zero total float in accordance with this specification. Once the revised baseline is accepted by the DISTRICT, the


CONTRACTOR must prepare an update of the Baseline Schedule with all actuals to date and submit it

for acceptance.

C. The CONTRACTOR’s refusal, failure or neglect to take appropriate recovery action or to submit a

written recovery statement shall constitute reasonable evidence that the CONTRACTOR is not

prosecuting the WORK, or separable part, with the diligence that will ensure its completion within the

Contract Time. Such lack of action shall constitute sufficient basis for the DISTRICT to recommend the withholding of some or all of any payment due and/or shall be considered grounds for termination

of the Contract by the DISTRICT in accordance with Article 15 of the General Terms & Conditions.

SECTION 01670 EQUIPMENT ALIGNMENT

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.01 SCOPE

A. Summary of Work: This specification section covers furnishing all labor, materials, and equipment for

the alignment of shaft coupled machines to eliminate premature machine failure due to misalignment.

This section provides general information and should not be relied on solely for the alignment

requirements. The CONTRACTOR shall submit detailed descriptions of the alignment methods

proposed for the equipment specified. The focus of the details in regard to the alignment requirements

should be specified in the section that pertains to the equipment.

:

B. Related Work Specified Elsewhere:

1. SECTION 16150 Motors

1.02 DEFINITIONS

ACCESSIBLE: The ability to reach and adjust the aligning feature. Consideration should be given to

confined space restrictions, removing guards, bushing plates, hydraulic lines, lubrication lines, electric lines

etc.

: The following definitions apply to this specification:

ALIGNMENT TARGET SPECIFICATIONS: Desired intentional offset and angularity at coupling center to

compensate for thermal growth and/or dynamic loads. Most properly specified as an OFFSET, and an angle

in two perpendicular planes, horizontal and vertical.

ANGULAR ERROR: A misalignment condition characterized by the angular error between the desired

centerline and the actual centerline. This misalignment condition may exist in planes both horizontal and

vertical to the axis of rotation. (Reference Figure 5)

ANGULARITY: The angle between the rotational centerlines of two shafts. Angularity is a “slope”

expressed in terms of a rise (millimeters or thousandths of an inch) over a run (meter or inches). (Reference

Figure 8)

AXIAL PLAY, AXIAL FLOAT, END FLOAT: Shaft axial movement along its centerline caused by axial

forces, thermal expansion or contraction, and permitted by journal bearings, sleeve bearings and/or looseness.

BASE PLATE: The surface often made of steel plate or cast iron, to which the feet of a machine are attached.

(Reference Figure 10a and 10b)

CO-LINEAR: Co-linear means two lines that are positioned as if they were one line. Co-linear as used in

alignment means two or more centerlines of rotation with no offset or angularity between them. Two or more

lines are co-linear when there is no offset or angularity between them (i.e. they follow the same path).

COPLANAR: The condition of two or more surfaces having all elements in one plane.

COUPLING POINT: The phrase “COUPLING POINT” in the definition of SHAFT ALIGNMENT is an

acknowledgment that vibration due to misalignment originates at the point of power transmission, the

coupling. The shafts are being aligned and the coupling center is just the measuring point.

COUPLED SHAFTS ALIGNMENT: Coupled shaft alignment is the positioning of two or more machines so

that the rotational centerlines of their shafts are co-linear at the coupling center under operating conditions.
