Tim <br>coordinated the effort as Tom was on vacation this week. But it took <br>essentially all the Hall D technical staff working together to make this <br>happen safely. We started yesterday and got about 3/4 of the way into <br>the magnet. Today we started out by measuring the tension pulling the <br>BCAL, which was about 12,000 lbs once it got moving. The initial tug to <br>get it started after sitting overnight was about 17,000 lbs. By noon the <br>calorimeter was within 1" of its final location. There was a slight <br>interference at the end of the pull, which required an adjustment to the <br>pulling fixture. The modification was completed after lunch and the <br>detector was pulled into its resting position, about 1 mm from the mark <br>on the magnet. The gap between the flat side of the modules and the iron <br>is about 7/8" +/- 1/8", measured by ruler. The BCAL will be surveyed on <br>Monday and accurate as-built positions will be determined.<br><br>Cheers, Elton.<br><br>-- <br>Elton Smith<br>Jefferson Lab MS 12H5<br>12000 Jefferson Ave STE 16<br>Newport News, VA 23606<br>(757) 269-7625<br>(757) 269-6331 fax<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Halld-cal mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Halld-cal@jlab.org">Halld-cal@jlab.org</a><br>https://mailman.jlab.org/mailman/listinfo/halld-cal<br></blockquote></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
