9、tandards: BS 4440, Glossary of basic terms for fishing nets. Technical Committee 38 Textiles of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) agreed at its meeting in1960 to a proposal from Germany that a specialist sub-committee be appointed to deal with textile products for fishing nets
10、. This action arose from the increasing interest in standards matters being evinced by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and other international bodies concerned with deep sea fishing. It had become evident that there was a need for ISO to examine the subject of fishing net
11、s and produce such Recommendations as were required to co-ordinate, on an international basis, the activities of the fishing industries of the maritime nations. The ISO sub-committee decided that urgent attention should be given to terminology, designation of nets and netting yarns and to methods of
12、 hanging nets and cutting them to shape. The Ropes and Cordage Industry Standards Committee appointed a technical committee to organize the UK contribution to the ISO work and to develop as British Standards such ISO Recommendations as were relevant to the UK industry. This British Standard is based
13、 on ISO/R1532 (with which it is in complete conformity) and is one of a number that will cover aspects being investigated by the ISO sub-committee. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct
14、application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

15、 amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS4763:1971 BSI 12-1999 1 1 Scope This British Standard defines the different methods of cutting knotted netting to shape by means of straight cuts, the types of cut (N-, T- and Bar-cut) and the rules f
16、or the designation of the cutting rate. (See BS4440 for the definitions of the symbols N and T in netting.) NOTEThe title of the British Standard referred to in this standard is given on pageii. 2 Definition For the purposes of this British Standard, the following definition applies: cutting knotted
17、 netting to shape the cutting from knotted netting of pieces in the shape of trapezia, triangles, parallelograms or other polygons 3 Types of cut Depending on the desired final shape of the netting, tapering cuts shall be made in suitable ways. The various depths of taper are obtained by combining d
18、ifferent lengths of cuts, either along a row of sequential knots (N- or T-cuts respectively) or parallel to a line of sequential mesh bars (B-cuts). (See BS4440 for the definition of the symbols N and T in netting.) The cuts along a row of sequential knots are distinguished by their situation in the
19、 drawing of the net or in the netting that has been hung up for tapering as described in clauses3.1.1 and3.1.2 below. 3.1 K-cuts (knot cuts). Symbol: K. Cuts just beyond the knots. NOTEThe term K-cut may be used instead of the two following terms in cases where the relation to the general course of
20、the netting yarn is insignificant. 3.1.1 N-cut (vertical cut). A cut at right angles to the general course of the netting yarn just beyond the knots; symbol: N. Figure 1 BS4763:1971 2 BSI 12-1999 3.1.2 T-cut (horizontal cut). A cut parallel to the general course of the netting yarn just beyond the k
21、nots; symbol: T. 3.2 Bar-cut. A cut parallel to a line of sequential mesh bars, each from adjacent meshes, and severing one or more bars; symbol: B. 4 Cutting rate 4.1 Definition of cutting rate. To obtain a desired shape and area of netting by tapering, the sequence of N-cuts and B-cuts, N-cuts and
22、 T-cuts or T-cuts and B-cuts shall be such that each cut of one type is the same length as the preceding cut of that type, and the alternation shall proceed in a rhythmical way. This rhythmical alternation of the various types of cuts is called the cutting rate. 4.2 Designation of the cutting rate.
23、The cutting rate is determined by the lengths of consecutive sections of N- or T-cuts and B-cuts. The lengths of the various cuts are indicated as follows: 1) for N- and T-cuts by the number of consecutive meshes cut; 2) for a B-cut by the number of consecutive bars severed along the cutting edge, n
24、ot counting the bars on the preceding knot. Figure 2 Figure 3 BS4763:1971 BSI 12-1999 3 To describe the cutting rate for tapering netting, the number and the type of each cut are indicated, giving first N- or T-cuts, then B-cuts. The following combinations are used for cutting netting to shape: N- a
25、nd B-cuts T- and B-cuts N- and T-cuts Exceptions are cutting rates where any of the named types of cutting is used alone. For these the following symbols are valid: AB = all bars cut AN = all cuts entirely in N-direction (at right angles to the general course of the netting yarn) AT = all cuts entir
26、ely in T-direction (parallel to the general course of the netting yarn) 4.3 Examples of the designation of the cutting rate 4.3.1 Example 1. 1N2B means the rhythmical alternation of one N-cut and two B-cuts. 4.3.2 Example 2. 1T2B means the rhythmical alternation of one T-cut and two B-cuts. Figure 4
27、 Figure 5 BS4763:1971 4 BSI 12-1999 4.3.3 Example 3. 1N2T means the rhythmical alternation of one N-cut and two T-cuts. NOTEFurther examples of cutting rates are given inAppendix A. 5 Methods of cutting (tapering) 5.1 By tapering only one edge of the netting, right-angled trapezia or right-angled tr
28、iangles are made. 5.2 By using the same cutting rate in the same direction on two opposite edges of the netting, parallelograms are made. In the case of netting in the shape of a parallelogram, the triangular piece cut off on one side may be joined to the other edge (seeFigure 10). Figure 6 Figure 7
29、 Figure 8 Figure 9 Figure 10 BS4763:1971 BSI 12-1999 5 5.3 Netting in the shape of isosceles trapezia or isosceles triangles The area of such netting may be divided into two right-angled trapezia or triangles respectively, each of these parts being tapered correspondingly in opposite directions. For
30、 triangular shaped netting (seeFigure 12) each of the two halves must be tapered to a point. 5.4 Netting in the shape of asymmetrical trapezia The area of such netting may be divided into one right-angled trapezium and one right-angled triangle respectively, each of these parts being tapered corresp
31、ondingly. NOTEThe desired final shape of netting should be shown by a diagram which will indicate the direction of the cuts.
