The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through I

34、SO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates

35、closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards.

36、Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this d

37、ocument may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

43、a common basis covering those aspects that address design requirements and assessments of all offshore structures used by the petroleum and natural gas industries worldwide. Through their application the intention is to achieve reliability levels appropriate for manned and unmanned offshore structur

44、es, whatever the type of structure and the nature of the materials used. It is important to recognize that structural integrity is an overall concept comprising models for describing actions, structural analyses, design rules, safety elements, workmanship, quality control procedures and national req

45、uirements, all of which are mutually dependent. The modification of one aspect of design in isolation can disturb the balance of reliability inherent in the overall concept or structural system. The implications involved in modifications, therefore, need to be considered in relation to the overall r

46、eliability of all offshore structural systems. The offshore structures International Standards are intended to provide a wide latitude in the choice of structural configurations, materials and techniques without hindering innovation. Sound engineering judgment is therefore necessary in the use of th

47、ese International Standards. The overall concept of structural integrity is described above. For foundations, some additional considerations apply. These include the time, frequency and rate at which actions are applied, the method of foundation installation, the properties of the surrounding soil,

48、the overall behavior of the seabed, effects from adjacent structures and the results of drilling into the seabed. All of these, and any other relevant information, need to be considered in relation to the overall reliability of the foundation. The design practice for the foundations of offshore stru

49、ctures has proved to be an innovative and evolving process over the years since the 1950s. This evolution is expected to continue and is encouraged. Therefore, circumstances can arise when the procedures described herein (or elsewhere) are insufficient on their own to ensure that a safe and economical foundation design is achieved. Seabed soils vary. Experience gained at one location is not necessarily applicable at another. The scope of the site investigation for one structure is not necessarily adequate for another. Extra c
