Ship's Force Pitches In On USS Enterprise Overhaul The U.S.S. Enterprise service steam piping was plagued with nu- merous leaks prior to its recent refu- eling overhaul at Newport News. This habitability system was com- prised of copper pipe with silver braze joints, and repairs were com- plicated by the fact that the ship's system was divided into only two zones. The proposed work package, which included creating multiple zones with isolation points, ran into funding problems. It was proposed to use the ship's force during the overhaul to do a large portion of the work. Although sufficient ship's force labor was available, it was still a significant undertaking and skilled brazers were reportedly in short supply. The decision was made to employ NAVSEA-approved elastic strain preload (ESP) mechanically attached fittings and the ship's avail- able labor. A team of machinist mates from the Service Steam Shop, outfitted with this technology, re- portedly accomplished complex pip- ing repairs and replacement ahead of schedule.
