ABSRULES FOR CONDITIONS OF CLASSIFICATION .2016 iii PART Foreword 1 Foreword For the 2008 edition, Part 1, “Conditions of Classification” for all vessels other than those in offshore service was consolidated into a generic booklet, entitled Rules for Conditions of Classi

5、fication (Part 1). The purpose of this consolidation was to emphasize the common applicability of the classification requirements in “Part 1” to ABS-classed vessels, other marine structures and their associated machinery, and thereby make “Part 1” more readily a common “Part” of the various ABS Rule

6、s and Guides, as appropriate. Accordingly, the subject booklet, Rules for Conditions of Classification (Part 1), is to be considered, for example, as being applicable to and comprising a “Part” of the following ABS Rules and Guides: Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels (Steel Vessel Rules)

7、Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels Under 90 meters (295 feet) in Length (Under 90 m Rules) Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels for Service on Rivers and Intracoastal Waterways (River Rules) Rules for Building and Classing Steel Barges (Barge Rules) Rules for Building and Classin

27、 PART Section 1: Classification 1 CHAPTER 1 Scope and Conditions of Classification SECTION 1 Classification 1 Process (1 November 2004) The Classification process consists of: a) The development of Rules, Guides, standards and other criteria for the design and construction of marine vessels and stru

28、ctures, for materials, equipment and machinery, b) The review of design and survey during and after construction to verify compliance with such Rules, Guides, standards or other criteria, c) The assignment and registration of class when such compliance has been verified, and d) The issuance of a ren

29、ewable Classification certificate with annual endorsements valid for five years. The Rules, Guides, and standards are, in general, developed by the International Association of Classification Societies and by ABS staff, and passed upon by committees made up of naval architects, marine engineers, shi

30、pbuilders, engine builders, steel makers and by other technical, operating, and scientific personnel associated with the worldwide maritime industry. Theoretical research and development, established engineering disciplines, as well as satisfactory service experience are utilized in their developmen

31、t and promulgation. ABS and its committees can act only upon such theoretical and practical considerations in developing Rules, Guides, and standards. Surveyors apply normally accepted examination and testing standards to those items specified for each survey by the Rules. Construction procedures, s

32、afety procedures and construction supervision remain the responsibility of the shipyard, ship repairer, manufacturer, Owner or other client. For classification, vessels are to comply with both the hull and the machinery requirements of the Rules and Guides. 3 Certificates and Reports (1 January 1996

33、) 3.1 Plan review, and surveys during and after construction are conducted by ABS to verify to itself and its committees that a vessel, structure, item of material, equipment or machinery is in compliance with the Rules, Guides, standards or other criteria of ABS and to the satisfaction of the atten

34、ding Surveyor. All reports and certificates are issued solely for the use of ABS, its committees, its clients and other authorized entities. 3.3 ABS will release information from reports and certificates to the Port State to assist in rectification of deficiencies during port state control intervent

35、ion. Such information includes text of conditions of classification, survey due dates, and certificate expiration dates. The Owner will be advised of any request and/or release of information 4 ABSRULES FOR CONDITIONS OF CLASSIFICATION .2016 Part 1 Rules for Conditions of Classification Chapter 1 Sc

37、 weather conditions), consideration may be given for an extension of the Special Periodical Survey not exceeding three (3) months, provided the vessel is attended and the attending Surveyor(s) so recommend(s) after the following has been carried out: Annual Survey; and Re-examination of recommendati

38、ons; and Progression of the Special Periodical Survey as far as practicable; and In the case where drydocking is due prior to the end of the class extension, an underwater examination is to be carried out by an approved diving company. An underwater examination by an approved company may be dispense

39、d with in the case of extension of Drydocking Survey not exceeding 36 months interval provided the vessel is without outstanding recommendation regarding underwater parts. 8 ABSRULES FOR CONDITIONS OF CLASSIFICATION .2016 Part 1 Rules for Conditions of Classification Chapter 1 Scope and Conditions o

40、f Classification Section 2 Suspension and Cancellation of Classification 1-1-2 (1 July 2005) If the vessel is at sea on the Special Periodical Survey due date, consideration may be given for an extension of the Special Periodical Survey provided there is documented agreement to an extension prior to

41、 the due date, positive arrangements have been made for a Surveyor to attend the vessel at the first port of call, and ABS is satisfied there is technical justification for an extension. Such an extension shall be granted only until arrival at the first port of call after the due date. However, if o

42、wing to “exceptional circumstances” the Special Periodical Survey cannot be completed at the first port of call, the Rule above for an extension of the Special Periodical Survey may be followed, but the total period of extension shall in no case be longer than three (3) months after the original due

43、 date of the Special Periodical Survey. 7.11 (1 July 2005) When a vessel is intended for a demolition voyage with any periodical survey overdue, the vessels class suspension may be held in abeyance, and consideration may be given to allow the vessel to proceed on a single direct ballast voyage from

44、the lay-up or final discharge port to the demolition yard. In such cases, a short term Class Certificate with conditions for the voyage noted may be issued provided the attending Surveyor finds the vessel in satisfactory condition to proceed for the intended voyage. 7.13 (1 July 2005) If due to circ

45、umstances reasonably beyond the Owners or ABSs control (limited to such cases as damage to the vessel; unforeseen inability of ABS to attend the vessel due to the governmental restrictions on right of access or movement of personnel; unforeseeable delays in port or inability to discharge cargo due t

46、o unusually lengthy periods of severe weather, strikes, civil strife, acts of war, or other cases of force majeure), the ship is not in a port where the overdue surveys can be completed at the expiry of the periods allowed above, ABS may allow the vessel to sail, in class, directly to an agreed disc

47、harge port and, if necessary, hence, in ballast, to an agreed port at which the survey will be completed, provided that ABS: i) Examines the vessels records; and ii) Carries out the due and/or overdue surveys and examination of recommendations at the first port of call when there is an unforeseen in

48、ability of ABS to attend the vessel in the present port, and iii) Has satisfied itself that the vessel is in a condition to sail for one trip to a discharge port and subsequent ballast voyage to a repair facility if necessary. (Where there is unforeseen inability of ABS to attend the vessel in the p

49、resent port, the master is to confirm that his ship is in condition to sail to the nearest port of call.) If class has already been automatically suspended in such cases, it may be reinstated subject to the conditions presented in this Paragraph. 7.15 (1 February 2013) When a vessel is intended for a single voyage from laid-up position to repair yard with any periodical survey overdue, the vessels class suspension may be held in abeyance an
