Unit 3 - Practical Damage Control
Name 3 DC measures that require CO permission - ANS--Counterflooding
-Jettisoning
-changing MOPP levels
-changing material conditions
-Flooding magazines
Who initiates DC measures - ANS-DCA in Central
What does Condition 2 entail? - ANS-1 medical locker
1 DCRS manned
DCC manned
What is the purpose of having Cond 2 versus Cond 1 or Cond 2 DC - ANS-minimize
impact on ship while providing DC to casualty
What does Cond 2 DC entail - ANS--every DCRS manned
-do not man CIC or Weps mounts
-can mann every medical locker
What are the 4 tenants of an investigator? - ANS-1. Cautiously -
go in pairs, split to fight & report
2. Thoroughly
3. Report Findings
4. Repeat Investigation
Name some additional investigation methods - ANS--Pumping
-Observe Pressure gauges
-Observe Circuit Breakers
-Soundings
-Ventilation
What does an u/w explosion alongside/close onboard mean for investigators? -
ANS-check all voids, tanks, lower compartments for structural damage
In the case of hidden damage investigators should - ANS-extend investigation 2-3
compartments or 50ft from damage
, -along path of projectile
-above & below
-point of impact
What chapter of the RPM is Casualty Power? - ANS-Ch 6
Each DCRS is responsible for maintaining communications with - ANS--DCRS stations
-DCC
-own patrols
The design and construction of the ship determines the number of - ANS-firezones
DC Unit Lockers
-# personnel
- purpose - ANS--12 personnel
3 investigators
-dispersal of personnel & equipment
DC Unit Patrol Stations
-# personnel
- purpose - ANS--13-20 personnel
-response to difficult access areas w/ high potential for damage
How do you determine Halon effectiveness - ANS--see flames
-use NFTI for temp increase
-look at ventilation exhaust
After Halon is effective what do you do? - ANS-Complete 4 air exchanges @ 95%
efficiency in 15 min
What is the difference between DCRS, DCUL, & DCUPS? - ANS--# investigators
-manning of personnel
-purpose
What are the functional classifications for sound powered circuits? - ANS-Primary
Auxiliary
