18、ord ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a techni
19、cal committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of e
20、lectrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
21、the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for i
22、dentifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 24409-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 8, Ships and marine technology, Subcommittee SC 1, Lifesaving and fire protection. ISO 24409 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ships and marine technology Design, location and use
23、of shipboard safety signs, safety-related signs, safety notices and safety markings: Part 1: Design principles The following parts are under preparation: Part 2: Catalogue Part 3: Code of practice BS ISO 24409-1:2010ISO 24409-1:2010(E) vi ISO 2010 All rights reservedIntroduction The growth of intern
24、ational travel by ship has created a need to provide people travelling and working on board ships with signs and associated systems that communicate consistent and effective safety information. This International Standard specifies a system of safety and safety-related signs on ships and other marin
25、e installations that is generally consistent with standardized signs with which many will have gained familiarity in other applications. As such, this International Standard clarifies and supplements existing requirements set out in SOLAS regulations II-2/13.3.2.5.1, III/9.2.3 and III/11.5 and ISO 1
26、7631. However, it is directly applicable to shipboard safety and safety-related signs only, and does not deal with graphical symbols to be used on shipboard plans or documentation. This part of ISO 24409 spells out general design principles applicable to all types of shipboard safety and safety-rela
27、ted signs. Specific signs will be catalogued in the future ISO 24409-2, and their application on ships will be specified in the future ISO 24409-3.

Although the copies of this document printed by ISO ha
29、ve been produced to correspond (with an acceptable tolerance as judged by the naked eye) to the requirements of ISO 3864-1, it is not intended that these printed copies be used for colour matching. Instead, consult ISO 3864-1, which provides colorimetric and photometric properties, together with, as
30、 a guideline, references from colour order systems. 1 Scope This part of ISO 24409 prescribes general design principles for shipboard safety and safety-related signs, markings, and notices intended to communicate safety-related information to persons on board ships. 2 Normative references The follow

36、visually perceptible figure with a particular meaning used to transmit information independently of language 3.3 mimic sign sign which indicates the “you are here” position and incorporates a safety notice listing appropriate actions to be taken in an emergency NOTE “Mimic sign” has the same meaning
37、 as “simple mimic plan” referred to in SOLAS regulation II-2/13.7.2.2, and the cabin placard referred to in IMO Resolution A.752(18). 3.4 photoluminescent sign sign treated with material incorporating phosphors that, if excited by UV or visible radiation, store energy, which is emitted as light over
38、 a period of time NOTE The term “photoluminescent sign” is used in this part of ISO 24409 for consistency with terminology used in International Maritime Organization (IMO) publications. It has the same meaning as “phosphorescent safety sign” in ISO 3864-4. 3.5 safety marking marking which adopts th

40、y sign sign which gives a general safety message, obtained by a combination of colour and geometric shape and which, by the addition of a graphical symbol, gives a particular safety message NOTE Examples of safety signs in this part of ISO 24409 not shown with the ISO 7010 registration number are no

43、sonnel. The design requirements may differ as a function of the education of the intended audience. However, the objective is that all such signs use similar basic design principles to those in International Standards for safety signs in other public areas and workplaces. The design criteria for spe
44、cific signs differ according to the type of the sign and the specific context of use. The various categories of signs are described in 4.2.1 to 4.2.7, and in 4.3.1 and 4.3.2. Individual signs in these categories will be catalogued in the future ISO 24409-2. NOTE The three-letter code following each
45、subclause title relates to the nomenclature in the future ISO 24409-2. 4.2 Safety signs 4.2.1 Fire-fighting equipment signs (FES) Use and location of fire-fighting equipment Fire-fighting equipment signs are used to indicate the exact location of the fire-fighting equipment, the type of equipment an
46、d any instructions for its effective and safe use. 4.2.2 Emergency equipment signs (EES) Use and location of first aid facilities and portable safety equipment Emergency equipment signs are safe condition signs used to indicate the exact location of first aid facilities, first aid equipment, or port
47、able safety equipment, the type of facility or equipment and any instructions for its use. 4.2.3 Life saving systems and appliances signs (LSS) Use and location of life saving systems and appliances Life saving systems and appliances signs are safe condition signs used to indicate the exact location
48、 or storage of the life-saving equipment, the type of equipment, the identification number and any instructions for its correct use. 4.2.4 Means of escape signs (MES) Escape route identification Means of escape signs are safe condition signs used to indicate location within the ship and to provide d
49、irectional guidance from any area within the ship to a designated assembly station and/or to exits and embarkation stations. 4.2.5 Prohibition signs (PSS) Prohibited actions Prohibition signs are used to restrict or prohibit the movement and actions of persons. 4.2.6 Warning signs (WSS) Identification of hazards Warning signs are used to warn persons of possible dangerous conditions and hazards and risks that exist on board a ship. 4.2.7 Mandatory action signs (MSS)
