The document outlines a pressure testing procedure for a barge, likely part of quality control or maintenance within a government contract or RFP for maritime equipment. The process involves removing a coupling, inserting a gauge, and filling the barge with no more than 4 psi of air. A soap and water mixture is used to spray all welded seams to identify leaks. Any detected leaks must be marked, fixed, and rechecked. The barge must hold 4 psi for four hours without leaks to pass the test. This detailed procedure ensures the structural integrity and air-tightness of the barge, critical for its operational safety and compliance with specified standards.
