5、ard a variety of vessels or offshore installations. This Guide outlines the ABS requirements for the design and survey of accommodation modules installed onboard ABS-classed Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs), and Mobile Offshore Units (MOUs), Offshore Installations (fixed or floating), Steel Ba
6、rges, and Steel Vessels. The Guide may be voluntarily applied to other type of portable modules. The requirements contained in this Guide are for design, construction, installation, and survey of accommodation modules and are based on the applicable ABS Rules and Guides, for the vessel type. No part
7、 of an accommodation module is to be designed and built to a lesser standard than a deckhouse on the same facility unless explicitly indicated in this Guide. This Guide becomes effective on 15 January 2013. Users are advised to check periodically on the ABS website www.eagle.org to verify that this

23、 accommodation modules installed onboard ABS-classed vessels or offshore units. Flag Administration requirements should be considered in addition to this Guide. 3 Background The installation of modular buildings for use as living quarters, industrial spaces, and workshops has become increasingly pre
24、valent in recent years. Irrespective of the amount of time that portable modules are installed onboard, the potential risks to personnel within these buildings can be comparable to those within a traditional living quarters structure. Due to the transient nature of portable accommodation modules, it
25、 is possible that the buildings may be installed on a number of different types of vessels and offshore units over their life. In recognizing that the ABS class requirements differ based on the type of host vessel or facility, this Guide has been created to outline the process for the design and sur
26、vey of the modules and to establish the requirements for modules which can be used on any category of offshore drilling unit, production facility, barge, steel vessel, or high speed craft. 5 Application (1 May 2014) This Guide is intended for accommodation modules installed onboard ABS-classed vesse
27、ls or offshore units. Industrial modules in which people normally work (laboratories, workshops, wireline 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 a
28、ssigned to work in the unit(s) is provided in a deckhouse, superstructure, or module complying fully with 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
29、 the ABS Rules for Survey After Construction (Part 7), as applicable. Non-sleeping accommodation modules 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 accomm
30、odation modules are stacked, the stacking arrangements are to be reviewed and surveyed in accordance with 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 basi
31、s. The equipment installed in such containers or portable buildings may however be subject to additional 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 whi
32、ch protect against down flooding or those considered buoyant in stability or load line calculations. This 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 ves
33、sel are subject to additional requirements and will be considered on a case by case basis. Section 1 Introduction 2 ABSGUIDE FOR PORTABLE ACCOMMODATION MODULES .2013 This Guide is intended for modules generally not to exceed length, width, and height dimensions of 14 4.9 3 m (46 16 10 ft). Modules c
34、onstructed on or after 15 January 2013 are to comply with the requirements contained herein. Existing modules to be installed onboard ABS classed units or vessels after 1 January 2018 are to comply with this Guide. 7 Class Approval Process (1 May 2014) The ABS approval process for accommodation modu
35、les is a four-step process as outlined below: Design Review of the 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 documenta
36、tion detailing the modules general arrangements, structural fire protection, 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 t
37、o the attending ABS Surveyor. Receipt of the drawings by the ABS Surveyor 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 documentatio
38、n detailing the module and the proposed location onboard the host 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 submi
39、tter and made available to the attending ABS Survey office. Upon receipt 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 ident
40、ify all modules being reviewed to this Guide. The initial submission of drawings is to specifically indicate the serial number of modules to be built in accordance with the drawings. 9 Definitions Accommodation Module. Space used for sleeping cabins, offices, hospitals, cinemas, games and hobby room
41、s, barber shops, halls, dining rooms, lounges, corridors, lavatories, pantries, galleys, and similar spaces. Laundries and storage rooms are not considered accommodation buildings. Industrial Module. Spaces used for industrial activities such as laboratories, workshops, wireline units, mudloggers, R
42、OV control rooms, etc. Industrial modules may contain office space and still be considered an industrial module. Sleeping Accommodation Module. Spaces used for sleeping cabins and hospitals. Offices, cinemas, games and hobby rooms, barber shops, halls, dining rooms, lounges, corridors, lavatories, p
43、antries, galleys, and similar spaces are not considered sleeping accommodation modules. Protected Front. The front of the module is considered protected if it fully sits within the space enclosed by lines drawn aftwards and inwards 45 degrees from the corners of an adjacent effective structure (for
44、example, forecastle aft bulkhead). See Section 1, Figure 1. Where the aft deck of an Offshore Support Vessel is protected by wing walls, the forward bulkhead of all first tier modules may be considered “protected front”. The height of the wing walls are to be not less than the standard height of sup
45、erstructures, as defined in Annex I, Regulation 33 of International Conventions on Load Lines. Unprotected Front. The front of the module is considered unprotected if it sits outside the locations defined as protected front Section 1 Introduction ABSGUIDE FOR PORTABLE ACCOMMODATION MODULES .2013 3 F
