Book excerpt: Navy Tactical Reference Publication NTRP 4-04.2.8 Conventional Underwater Construction And Repair Techniques NTRP 4-04.2.8 AUGUST 2011 This manual has been prepared as a guide for the Navy's underwater construction team (UCT) personnel, the diving Seabees of the naval construction force, in conducting conventional operations. It is based on analysis of past UCT operations and equivalent commercial practice. It is to be viewed as a living document, subject to continual revision and updating as new or improved equipment and work techniques are developed. Feedback to the Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) of UCT field experience in using the techniques described herein, or modifications of these techniques, is strongly encouraged so that all UCT personnel can benefit from the experience of the individual team members. The procedures and techniques described in this manual must be carried out in conformance with Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) 0910-LP-106-0957, United States. (U.S.) Navy Diving Manual, standard UCT procedures, and other Navy practices, with safety as the primary concern. This manual is to be used as a supplement to standard Navy diving rules and procedures and not as a substitute. It is also not a substitute for the judgment of experienced field personnel actually performing the tasks. A document such as this can only provide general guidance for typical situations. Almost every assigned task will have special requirements and problems that must be evaluated and resolved by the personnel familiar with the particular situation.
