3、 BUILDING AND CLASSING STEEL VESSELS .2017 Notices and General Information Introduction 1. The year 2017 edition of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels consists of the eleven (11) booklets as shown in Table 1. In this regard, we would bring the following to the users attention: a) The

4、purpose of the generic title ABS Rules for Conditions of Classification (Part 1) is to reflect the expanded contents of PART 1, as a result of including consolidated requirements for “Classification” applicable to all types of and sizes of vessels, barges and specific shipboard arrangements/systems,

5、 etc., except for those in offshore service, as specified in the Foreword to Part 1. b) The purpose of the generic title ABS Rules for Materials and Welding (Part 2) of PART 2 is to emphasize the common applicability of the requirements to ABS-classed vessels, other marine structures and their assoc

6、iated machinery, and thereby make PART 2 more readily a common “PART” of various ABS Rules and Guides, as appropriate. c) The purpose of the generic title ABS Rules for Survey After Construction (Part 7) is to reflect the expanded contents of PART 7, as a result of including consolidated requirement

7、s for “Surveys After Construction” applicable to all types and sizes of vessels, barges and specific shipboard arrangements/systems, etc., as specified in Part 7, Chapter 1, Section 1. 2. The numbering system applied in the Rules is shown in Table 2. 3. The primary changes from the 2016 edition of t

8、he Rules are identified and listed in Table 3. The effective date of the indicated Rule Changes is 1 January 2017, unless specifically indicated otherwise. 4. The effective date of each technical change since 1993 is shown in parenthesis at the end of the subsection/paragraph titles within the text

9、of each Part. Unless a particular date and month are shown, the years in parentheses refer to the following effective dates: (2000) and after 1 January 2000 (and subsequent years) (1996) 9 May 1996 (1999) 12 May 1999 (1995) 15 May 1995 (1998) 13 May 1998 (1994) 9 May 1994 (1997) 19 May 1997 (1993) 1

10、1 May 1993 For certain changes that have a major impact on shipyards, designers and vendors, ABS has instituted a two-year Rule cycle to give the industry more time to prepare for these changes. The text of these changes will appear in a box along with the effective date just under the existing Rule

11、 requirement. 5. Until the next edition of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels is published, Rule Change Notices and/or Corrigenda, as necessary, will be published on the ABS website www. eagle.org only, and will be available free for downloading. It is not intended to publish hard cop

12、ies of future Rule Change Notices and/or Corrigenda to existing Rules or Guides. The consolidated edition of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels, which includes Rule Change Notices and/or Corrigenda using different colors for easy recognition, will be published on the ABS website only

13、when Rule Change Notices and/or Corrigenda are issued. 6.

14、ciation with the harmonization of the Common Structural Rules (CSR) for Bulk Carriers and Oil Tankers, on 1 July 2015, the three Sub-parts, 5A, 5B, and 5C, of Part 5 of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels are as follows: Contents Part 5A: General Hull Requirements (IACS CSR Part 1) Par

15、t 5B: Ship Types (IACS CSR Part 2) Part 5C: This Part is divided into two separate booklets as follows: Chapters 1 to 6: Tankers and Bulk Carriers not covered by Part 5A and Part 5B and Container Carriers Chapters 7 to 13: Passenger Vessels, Liquefied Gas Carriers, Chemical Carriers, Vessels Intende

16、d to Carry Vehicles, Water Carriers, Membrane Tank LNG Carriers, and Vessels Using Gases or other Low-Flashpoint Fuels. Application Oil Tankers The structural requirements in Part 5A, Pt 1 and Part 5B, Pt 2, Ch 2 of the Rules are applicable for double hull oil tankers of 150 m in length and upward,

17、with structural arrangements as specified in Part 5A, Pt 1, Ch 1, Sec 1, 1.3. For oil tankers with structural arrangements not covered by Part 5A, Pt 1 and Part 5B, Pt 2, Ch 2, the requirements in Part 5C, Chapters 1 or 2, are to be complied with. Application Bulk Carriers The structural requirement

18、s in Part 5A, Pt 1 and Part 5B, Pt 2, Ch 1 of the Rules are applicable for single side skin and double side skin bulk carriers of 90m in length and upward, with structural arrangements as specified in Part 5A, Pt 1, Ch 1, Sec 1, 1.2. For vessels intended to carry ore or bulk cargoes, other than the

19、single side skin or double side skin bulk carriers of 90 m in length and upward with structural arrangements as specified in Part 5A, Pt 1 and Part 5B, Pt 2, Ch 1, the requirements in Part 5C, Chapters 3 or 4 are to be complied with. Application ABS Construction Monitoring Program These compulsory r

20、equirements for CSR notation are specified in Part 5C, Appendix 2. Application Onboard Systems for Oil Tankers and Bulk Carriers The onboard systems for all tankers are to comply with the requirements of Part 5C, Chapter 1, Section 7, and for all bulk carriers are to comply with the requirements of

21、Part 5C, Chapter 3, Section 7 of the Rules. Application References Other Parts of the ABS Rules that are referenced within Part 5A, 5B, or 5C are also to be applied.
