3、nd Structures (Part 1).) SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION (Revise Subsection 1/5, as follows:) 5 Application (1 May 2014) This Guide is intended for accommodation modules installed onboard ABS-classed vessels or offshore units. Industrial modules in which people normally work (laboratories, workshops, wirelin

4、e units, mudloggers, ROV control rooms, etc.) need not comply with this Guide so long as the modules are unmanned during heavy weather and sufficient space for the entire complement of personnel assigned to work in the unit(s) is provided in a deckhouse, superstructure, or module complying fully wit

5、h applicable structural requirements. A notice indicating the same is to be affixed to the module. Industrial modules are to comply with Appendix 7-2-A2 of the ABS MODU Rules or Appendix 7-A-17 of the ABS Rules for Survey After Construction (Part 7), as applicable. Non-sleeping accommodation modules

6、 are to comply with this Guide. However, the structural requirements of this Guide need not apply so long as the same conditions listed above for industrial modules are met. If non-sleeping accommodation modules are stacked, the stacking arrangements are to be reviewed and surveyed in accordance wit

7、h this Guide. Containers or portable buildings provided for storage or to house miscellaneous industrial equipment need not be considered class items. This Guide may be applied on a voluntary basis. The equipment installed in such containers or portable buildings may however be subject to additional

8、 requirements within other ABS Rules. Equipment essential to the operation of the vessel is not considered miscellaneous industrial equipment. This Guide is not applicable to modular buildings which protect against down flooding or those considered buoyant in stability or load line calculations. Thi

9、s Guide is not applicable to accommodation modules intended for Passenger Vessels or Special Purpose Ships carrying more than 60 persons. Modules intended for installation onboard this type of vessel are subject to additional requirements and will be considered on a case by case basis. This Guide is

10、 intended for modules generally not to exceed length, width, and height dimensions of 14 4.9 3 m (46 16 10 ft). Notice No. 1 March 2014 2 ABSGUIDE FOR PORTABLE ACCOMMODATION MODULES .2013 Modules constructed on or after 15 January 2013 are to comply with the requirements contained herein. Existing m

11、odules to be installed onboard ABS classed units or vessels after 1 January 2018 are to comply with this Guide. (Revise Subsection 1/7, as follows:) 7 Class Approval Process (1 May 2014) The ABS approval process for accommodation modules is a four-step process as outlined below: Design Review of the

12、 Module Section 2 Survey of the Module at Fabrication Facility Section 3 Design Review for Installation Approval Section 4 Survey onboard Host Vessel Section 5 The ABS review process of the module commences with drawings and documentation detailing the modules general arrangements, structural fire p

13、rotection, electrical configuration, structural design, and machinery and piping systems being submitted to the ABS technical office for review. Upon completion of the review, drawings will be returned to the submitter and forwarded to the attending ABS Surveyor. Receipt of the drawings by the ABS S

14、urveyor permits the physical survey of the module at the fabrication facility to be commenced. Once a host vessel for the module is determined, design review for installation approval can be commenced. Upon receipt of the documentation detailing the module and the proposed location onboard the host

15、vessel, the ABS technical office can review the arrangements. Once the ABS engineers have determined that the proposed location onboard the host vessel is suitable for the subject module, stamped drawings will be returned to the submitter and made available to the attending ABS Survey office. Upon r

16、eceipt of these drawings, the attending ABS Surveyor may attend the vessel and confirm that the installation of the modules is in accordance with the approved arrangements. The manufacturer is to assign a unique serial number to identify all modules being reviewed to this Guide. The initial submissi

17、on of drawings is to specifically indicate the serial number of modules to be built in accordance with the drawings.
