The work of
12、preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental,
13、 in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/
14、IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives). Attention is drawn to the possibilit
15、y that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

19、09-3:2014ISO 24409-3:2014(E)IntroductionThe growth of international travel by ship and the variety of work on offshore installations have created a need to provide people travelling and working on-board ships and other marine installations with signs and associated systems that communicate consisten
20、t and effective safety information. This part of ISO 24409 specifies a system of signs on ships and other marine installations that is generally consistent with standardized systems of signs with which many will have gained familiarity in other applications.As such, this part of ISO 24409 clarifies
21、and supplements existing requirements set out in SOLAS regulations II-2/13.3.2.5.1, II-2/13.1.3, II-2/13.7.1.1, II-2/13.7.2, III/8, III/9, III/11.5, III/20.10, and ISO 17631.This part of ISO 24409 is intended to improve the safety of passengers and crew on board ships and marine installations by pro
22、viding guidance on the signing of escape routes, including the use of arrows to provide directional information, and in so doing to assist in orientation and in the description of the planned escape process to passengers and crew. In addition, it provides guidance in signing of the location and inst
23、ructions for the use of fire-fighting equipment and life-saving equipment.This part of ISO 24409 does not specify if and when escape route signs will be required. However, it has been assumed in the drafting of this part of ISO 24409 that its execution will be entrusted to a competent person familia
24、r with the relevant regulatory requirements. This part of ISO 24409 is also intended for use by regulatory authorities to assist in judging compliance with appropriate IMO regulations and resolutions. It should be noted that the signing of escape routes comprises only a part of the management of mea
25、ns of escape. Many other considerations have to be taken into account, including the requirements of people with special needs, in order to establish a safe evacuation procedure.This part of ISO 24409 reflects best practice; the illustrations reflect a system designed to provide the optimum amount o
26、f information to clearly identify the location and direction of the means of escape from any location within a ship, or offshore installation, to the assembly stations and appropriate survival craft embarkation stations. However, as shown in examples, by the use of supplementary text, escape route s
27、igning can also have a role to play in the management of a ship in non-emergency situations.

45、m any space within a ship or other marine installation, a sign or series of signs is provided and placed so that a person is directed along an escape route toward an assembly station or embarkation station, as applicable.4.1.2 The signing system should be designed based on the means of escape plan,
46、assembly station plan, and life-saving appliances plan, as applicable. The operational needs of the ship in its management should also be considered.4.2 Planning4.2.1 The signing system should provide simple identification of the means of escape provisions to allow people to escape with minimum assi
47、stance. It should avoid possible points of confusion and, in particular, give no cause for hesitation or need for decision-making amongst alternatives. People escaping should be provided with clear, unambiguous directions from any place in the ship throughout the escape route to the assembly station
48、s and/or embarkation stations.4.2.2 The following areas should be taken into account in planning and designing escape route signing systems:a) siting and nature of all designated means of escape, in particular, noting stairway enclosures, escape ladders, and hatches;b) relative conspicuousness of es
49、cape routes;c) position of all doors and other exits sited along escape routes;d) escape from public spaces or open decks;e) provision of other systems (if any), such as low-location lighting or audible devices, to assist in wayfinding in the event of an emergency evacuation;f) type and positioning of ambient lights and lighting levels within the ship under both normal conditions (such as entertainment areas which may have low lighting levels as part of normal operation) and emergency lighting conditions;g) location and
