3、i ABSRULES FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING HIGH-SPEED CRAFT .2018 Notices and General Information Introduction 1. The year 2018 edition of the Rules for Building and Classing High-Speed Craft consists of the eight (8) booklets as shown in Table 1. With regard to three booklets, Part 1, Part 2, and Part 7:
4、 a) The purpose of the generic title ABS Rules for Conditions of Classification High-Speed Craft (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 high-speed craft as specified in th
5、e Foreword to Part 1. Additional specific requirements are contained in Chapters 2 and 3 of Part 1. 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 and their
6、 associated 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 requi
7、rements 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 2017 Rules
8、are identified and listed in Table 3. The effective date of the indicated Rule Changes is 1 January 2018, 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 P
9、art. 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) 11 May 199
10、3 5. Until the next edition of the Rules for Building and Classing High-Speed Craft 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 copies of fut
11、ure Rule Change Notices and/or Corrigenda to existing Rules or Guides. The consolidated edition of the Rules for Building and Classing High-Speed Craft, which includes Rule Change Notices and/or Corrigenda using different colors for easy recognition, will be published on the ABS website only when RC

45、 For formed material see 2-4-1/3.13. 2 Plating at the corners of large hatch openings are to be specially considered. 3 (2017) ASTM A36 steel otherwise manufactured by an ABS approved steel mill, t tested and certified to the satisfaction of ABS may be used in lieu of Grade A for thickness up to and

47、 of higher-strength steel in a welded construction may not be greater than that of ordinary-strength steel. Precautions against corrosion fatigue to higher strength steel and aluminum alloy materials may also be necessary. 1.5 Structures Exposed to Low Air Temperatures (2017) For craft intended to o
48、perate in areas with low air temperatures below and including 20C (4F), the materials in exposed structures are to be selected based on the design temperature tD, to be taken as defined in 3-1-2/1.7. Materials in the various strength members above the lowest ballast water line (BWL) exposed to air a
49、re not to be of lower grades than those corresponding to Classes I, II and III, as given in 3-1-2/Table 3, depending on the categories of structural members (secondary, primary and special). For non-exposed structures (except as indicated in Note 5 of 3-1-2/Table 3) and structures below the lowest ballast water line, see 3-1-2/1.1.
