9、e length L. 17 Block Coefficient (Cb) The Block Coefficient (Cb), is given by Cb= /LBd where is the volume of molded displacement, excluding appendages, in cubic meters (cubic feet). 19 Double Ended Rake Barge A Double Ended Rake Barge is a barge with similar rakes at each end and fitted with towing
10、 bitts arranged in such a manner that the barge in normal circumstances may be towed from either end. Each end of barges with this configuration is to be considered as the forward end in the application of these Rules. 21 Oil As used in these Rules, the term Oil refers to petroleum products having f
11、lash points at or below 60C (140F), (closed cup test). 23 Passenger A Passenger is every person other than the master and the members of the crew or other persons employed or engaged in any capacity onboard a vessel on the business of that vessel and children under one year of age. 25 Superstructure
12、 A Superstructure is a decked structure on the freeboard deck extending from side to side of the barge or vessel, or with the side plating not being inboard of the shell plating more than 0.04B. 27 Cargo Area The Cargo Area is that part of a barge that contains cargo tanks, slop tanks and cargo pump
13、 rooms and includes ballast and void spaces, cofferdams and pump rooms adjacent to cargo tanks and also deck areas throughout the entire length and breadth of that part of the barge over the above mentioned spaces. In chemical and liquefied gas tank barges having independent cargo tanks installed in
14、 hold spaces, cofferdams or ballast or void spaces aft of the aftermost hold space bulkhead or forward of the forward-most hold space bulkhead are excluded from the cargo area. 29 Cargo Pump Room A Cargo Pump Room is a space containing pumps and their accessories for the handling of the cargo. 31 We
15、athertight Weathertight means that in any sea conditions water will not penetrate into the vessel. 33 Gross Tonnage For vessels in domestic service, gross tonnage is the national gross tonnage as specified by the country in which the vessel is to be registered. For vessels which are engaged in inter
16、national voyages, gross tonnage is to be determined by the International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969.

19、uction using steels complying with the requirements of Chapters 1 and 2 of the ABS Rules for Materials and Welding (Part 2). Use of steels other than those in Chapters 1 and 2 of the above Part 2 and the corresponding scantlings will be specially considered. Where it is intended to use material of c
20、old flanging quality, this steel is to be indicated on the plans. ASTM A36 material tested and certified to ABSs satisfaction, may be used in thicknesses up to and including 12.5 mm (0.5 in.) for plates and up to and including 40 mm (1.57 in.) for section, without any restriction on location. 1.3 Al
21、uminum Alloys The use of aluminum alloys in hull structures will be considered upon submission of the proposed specification for the alloy and the method of fabrication. 1.5 Design Consideration Where scantlings are reduced in connection with the use of higher-strength steel or where aluminum alloys
22、 are used, adequate buckling strength is to be provided. Where it is intended to use material of cold flanging quality for important longitudinal strength members, this steel is to be indicated on the plans. 1.7 Guidance for Repair Where a special welding procedure is required for the special steels
23、 used in the construction, including any low temperature steel and those materials not in Chapters 1 and 2 of the ABS Rules for Materials and Welding (Part 2), a set of plans showing the following information for each steel should be placed aboard the barge or vessel. Material Specification Welding
24、procedure Location and extent of application These plans are in addition to those normally placed aboard which are to show all material applications. 1.9 Materials Containing Asbestos (2005) See 4-1-1/21. 3 Scantlings 3.1 General Sections having appropriate section moduli or areas, in accordance wit
25、h their functions in the structure as stiffeners, columns or combinations of both, are to be adopted, due regard being given to the thickness of all parts of the sections to provide a proper margin for corrosion. It may be required that calculations be submitted in support of resistance to buckling
26、for any part of the vessels structure. ABSRULES FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING STEEL VESSELS FOR SERVICE ON RIVERS & INTRACOASTAL WATERWAYS .2016 21 Part 3 Hull Construction and Equipment Chapter 1 General Section 2 General Requirements 3-1-2 3.3 Workmanship All workmanship is to be of commercial marine
27、quality and acceptable to the Surveyor. Welding is to be in accordance with the requirements of Section 3-2-6. The Surveyors are to satisfy themselves that all operators to be employed in the construction of barges and vessels to be classed are properly qualified in the type of work proposed and in
28、the proper use of the welding processes and procedures to be followed. 5 Proportions In general, these Rules are valid for vessels having lengths not exceeding 30 times their depth, and breadths not exceeding 6 times their depth. Vessels with other proportions will be specially considered. 7 Structu
29、ral Sections 7.1 Required Section Modulus The scantling requirements of these Rules are applicable to structural angles, channels, bars, and rolled or built-up sections. The required section modulus of members such as girders, webs, etc., supporting frames and stiffeners is to be obtained with an ef
30、fective width of plating basis as described below, unless otherwise noted. The section modulus is to include the structural member in association with an effective width of plating equal to one-half the sum of the spacing on each side of the member or 33% of the unsupported span , whichever is less.
31、 For girders and webs along hatch openings, an effective breadth of plating equal to one-half the spacing or 16.5% of the unsupported span , whichever is less, is to be used. Where channel construction is adopted, as illustrated in 3-2-1/Figure 5 and 3-2-2/Figure 5, the required section modulus is t
32、o be obtained solely by the channel. The required section modulus of frames and stiffeners is assumed to be provided by the stiffener and one frame space of the plating to which it is attached. . For bars or shapes which are not attached to the plating, the section modulus is to be obtained in the m
33、ember only. It may be required that calculations be submitted in support of the resistance to buckling of longitudinals. 7.3 Serrated Sections Serrated sections may be used for girders, webs, frames and stiffeners, but the depth of the member is not to be less than 2 times the depth of any cutout. T
34、he cutouts are to be arranged to provide regularly spaced points of contact with the plating sufficient to obtain the welding required. Where supporting members are cut out for framing and stiffening members, the depth of the cutout should not exceed 50% of the depth of the supporting member. 9 Stru
35、ctural Design Details 9.1 General The designer shall give consideration to the following: 9.1.1 The thickness of internals in locations susceptible to rapid corrosion. 9.1.2 The proportions of built-up members to comply with established standards for buckling strength. 22 ABSRULES FOR BUILDING AND C
36、LASSING STEEL VESSELS FOR SERVICE ON RIVERS & INTRACOASTAL WATERWAYS .2016 Part 3 Hull Construction and Equipment Chapter 1 General Section 2 General Requirements 3-1-2 9.1.3 The design of structural details, such as noted below, against the harmful effects of stress concentrations and notches: i) D
37、etails of the ends, the intersections of members and associated brackets. ii) Shape and location of air, drainage, or lightening holes. iii) Shape and reinforcement of slots or cut-outs for internals. iv) Elimination or closing of weld scallops in way of butts, “softening” of bracket toes, reducing
38、abrupt changes of section or structural discontinuities. 9.1.4 Proportions and thickness of structural members to reduce fatigue response due to cyclic stresses, particularly for higher-strength steels. 9.3 Termination of Structural Members Unless permitted elsewhere in the Rules, structural members
39、 are to be effectively connected to the adjacent structures in such a manner as to avoid hard spots, notches and other harmful stress concentrations. Where members are not required to be attached at their ends, special attention is to be given to the end taper, by using soft-toed concave brackets or
40、 by a sniped end of not more than 30. Where the end bracket has a face bar, it is to be sniped and tapered not more than 30. Bracket toes or sniped ends are to be kept within 25 mm (1.0 in.) of the adjacent member, and the depth at the toe or snipe end is generally not to exceed 15 mm (0.60 in.). Wh
41、ere a strength deck or shell longitudinal terminates without end attachment, it is to extend into the adjacent transversely framed structure or stop at a local transverse member fitted at about one transverse frame space beyond the last floor or web that supports the longitudinal.
