DUYEN HAI 3 EXTENSION THERMAL POWER PLANT PROJECT
BOILER STRUCTURAL STEEL

Request for change to specification:

The Duyen Hai 3 Extension Thermal Power Plant Project Request for Proposal
Specification Part 2, Vol. 2, Section 9.2.9.9.3 requires that site connections be joined with
high strength friction grip bolts meeting the requirements of ASTM or equivalent. Connection
design for the boiler structural steel is based on ASTM A325 and ASTM A490 high strength
bolts. However, metric friction grip bolts meeting an ASTM standard do not exist. Therefore, it
is requested that JSS S10T bolts be approved as a substitute for the ASTM bolts. JSS S10T
bolts are nearly equivalent to ASTM A490 bolts and exceed the requirements of ASTM A325
bolts.
