1、 Guide for Building and Classing Liftboats GUIDE FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING LIFTBOATS 2016 American Bureau of Shipping Incorporated by Act of Legislature of the State of New York 1862 Copyright 2015 American Bureau of Shipping ABS Plaza 16855 Northchase Drive Houston, TX 77060 USA Foreword Foreword T
2、his Guide was developed for the Classification of Liftboats and specifies the requirements for design, construction and survey after construction of the Liftboat (including hull structure, equipment and machinery systems) for use by designers, builders, owners and operators in the offshore industry.
3、 This Guide will become effective immediately after its publication. Changes to Conditions of Classification (1 January 2008) For the 2008 edition, Part 1, Chapter 1, “Scope and Conditions of Classification” was consolidated into a generic booklet, entitled Rules for Conditions of Classification Off
4、shore Units and Structures (Part 1) for all units, installations, vessels or systems in offshore service. The purpose of this consolidation was to emphasize the common applicability of the classification requirements in “Part 1, Chapter 1” to ABS-classed offshore units, pipelines, risers, and other
5、offshore structures, and thereby make “Conditions of Classification” more readily a common Rule of the various ABS Rules and Guides, as appropriate. Thus, Part 1, Chapter 1 of this Guide specifies only the unique requirements applicable to liftboats. These supplemental requirements are always to be
6、used with the aforementioned Rules for Conditions of Classification Offshore Units and Structures (Part 1). ii ABSGUIDE FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING LIFTBOATS .2016 Table of Contents GUIDE FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING LIFTBOATS CONTENTS PART 1 Conditions of Classification (Supplement to the ABS Rules for

12、and General Information Introduction 1. The year 2016 edition of the Guide for Building and Classing Liftboats consists of the seven (7) booklets as shown in Table 1. With regard to two booklets, Part 1, and Part 2: a) The purpose of the generic title ABS Rules for Conditions of Classification Offsh
13、ore Units and Structures (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 units, installations, vessels or systems in offshore service, etc., as specified in the Foreword to Part 1.
14、 Additional specific requirements are contained in Part 1 of this Guide for Building and Classing Liftboats. b) The purpose of the generic title ABS Rules for Materials and Welding of PART 2 is to emphasize the common applicability of the requirements to ABS-classed vessels, other marine structures
15、and their associated machinery, and thereby make PART 2 more readily a common “PART” of various ABS Rules and Guides, as appropriate. 2. The numbering system applied in the Rules is shown in Table 2. 3. The primary changes from the 2015 edition of the Guide are identified and listed in Table 3. The
16、effective date of the indicated Rule Changes is 1 January 2016, 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 of each Part. Unless a particular date and month ar
17、e 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) 11 May 1993 For certain changes that have a major im
18、pact 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 requirement. 5. Until the next edition of the Guide for
19、 Building and Classing Liftboats is published, 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 copies of future Notices and/or Corrigenda to existing Rules or Guides. The
20、 consolidated edition of the Guide for Building and Classing Liftboats, which includes Notices and/or Corrigenda using different colors for easy recognition, will be published on the ABS website only when Notices and/or Corrigenda are issued. 6. The listing of CLASSIFICATION SYMBOLS AND NOTATIONS is
21、 available from the ABS website www.eagle.org for download. 2 ABSGUIDE FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING LIFTBOATS .2016 Notices and General Information TABLE 1 Applicable Editions of Booklets Comprising 2016 Liftboat Guide Guide for Building and Classing Liftboats Notices and General Information 2016 Part
