11、Water safety signs and beach safety flags: Part 1: Specifications for water safety signs used in workplaces and public areas Part 2: Specifications for beach safety flags; Colour, shape, meaning and performance Part 3: Guidance for use The original English text (ISO text) refers to “aquatic environm

12、ents” not only in the Scope, but throughout the text by which is meant all areas and installations near water where the operator or other responsible person(s) is/are accountable for user safety. A literal translation of this expression into German would not do justice to this meaning. For this reas

13、on, in this German version “aquatic environments” has been translated as “definierte Wasserbereiche”, thus also covering indoor and outdoor pools and bathing areas, as well as beaches. The DIN Standards corresponding to the International Standards referred to in this document are as follows: ISO 701

The illustrations show examples of the selection and location of water safe

17、ty signs and beach safety flags designed to provide information about aquatic hazards and the action necessary to avoid those hazards.A standardized method of signing with the use of appropriate supplementary text throughout the working and public environment assists the process of education and ins

18、truction on the meaning of water safety signs and beach safety flags, and the appropriate actions to take. The intention of this part of ISO 20712 is to ensure a uniformity of application of water safety signs and beach safety flags which leads to increased familiarity, and therefore improved safety

19、, for the users including visitors and for the general public.The illustrations within this part of ISO 20712 are based on assumptions that some of the people may be unfamiliar with the features of the indoor or outdoor swimming pools or of the beach. The illustrations are not intended to cover ever

20、y potentially hazardous situation and they should be interpreted as recommendations and not as minimum requirements.The use of water safety signs and beach safety flags does not replace the need for proper working methods and safety instruction or for training in accident prevention and the actions

21、to be taken in the event of an emergency, or for the provision of lifeguards.This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.NOTE 1 Some countries statutory regulations may differ in some respect from those gi

22、ven in this part of ISO 20712.NOTE 2 Some countries may differ in some respect from the requirements given in this part of ISO 20712 where they use the diamond geometric shape for warning signs.DIN ISO 20712-3:2015-095IMPORTANT The colours represented in the electronic file of this part of ISO 20712

23、 can be neither viewed on screen nor printed as true representations. Although the copies of this part of ISO 20712 printed by ISO have been produced to correspond (with an acceptable tolerance as judged by the naked eye) to the requirements of ISO 3864-4, it is not intended that these printed copie

24、s be used for colour matching. Instead, consult ISO 38644, which provides colorimetric and photometric properties, together with, as a guideline, references from colour order systems.1 ScopeThis part of ISO 20712 gives guidance for the selection and use of water safety signs as specified in ISO 2071

25、2-1 and beach safety flags as specified in ISO 20712-2, in aquatic environments. It provides guidance on their location, mounting positions, lighting and maintenance. It also provides guidance on the design and location of multiple signs.This part of ISO 20712 does not apply to traffic signs for use

26、 on the public highway or maritime signalling. It is not applicable to flags for use on firing ranges or to flags used to indicate water quality. It does not cover means of escape signs and their illumination which may be present.NOTE The illustrations in this part of ISO 20712 are as accurate as po

35、 1 to entry: Any outer border to the safety sign is excluded. See ISO 3864-1.4 Guidance for selection and siting of signs and flags4.1 Guidance for risk assessmentSelection and use shall be determined following the results of a risk assessment. The risk assessment should take into account the follow

36、ing specific issues:a) hazards and associated risks of the aquatic environment;DIN ISO 20712-3:2015-097b) regulations or legislation;c) operation and management of the aquatic environment;d) users and their foreseeable behaviour.In specific situations, other issues may have to be considered in a ris

37、k assessment.NOTE The users can be in unfamiliar environments, not wearing their normal sight correction lenses, or in bare feet.As the result of the risk assessment, a comprehensive statement of requirements should be prepared and used as the basis for the detailed design and specification for the

38、selection and use of signs and flags.4.2 Siting4.2.1 Water safety signs and multiple signsThe siting of water safety signs and multiple signs should allow hazards to be recognized and appropriate avoiding action to be taken by users.The following matters (issues, factors) should be considered:a) loc

39、ation of hazards and their signage;b) location of entrances/access to facilities;c) location of any other signs;d) location of architectural features, dcor, structures, vegetation or people that could conceal or divert attention from signs;e) lighting level and characteristics under both normal and

40、mains-failure conditions;f) appropriate supplementary text to water safety signs;g) appropriate information on multiple signs.4.2.2 Beach safety flagsThe siting of beach safety flags should allow hazards to be recognized and appropriate avoiding action to be taken by users.The following matters (iss

41、ues, factors) should be considered:a) nature and location of hazards and their relevant signage;b) zoning or boundaries of aquatic activities;c) location of structures, beach furniture or vegetation that could conceal or divert attention from flags;d) location of flag-poles;e) appropriate informatio

42、n on multiple signs, such as an explanation of meaning of flags and the presence or otherwise of a lifeguard service.DIN ISO 20712-3:2015-0985 Water safety signs5.1 General requirements for aquatic environments5.1.1 GeneralThe system designer should identify the locations of the hazards.Water safety

43、 signs should conform to ISO 20712-1. Where other safety sign meanings are required, these safety signs should conform to ISO 7010. Safety signs should comply with the colorimetric and photometric requirements given in ISO 3864-4.The required sign height of the safety sign should be determined from

44、the maximum viewing distance under different external illumination conditions and the relevant distance factor z according to Table A.1.The following principles should be taken into account when planning water safety signage; signs should:a) be sited conspicuously within the normal field of vision;b

45、) contrast to their surroundings;NOTE The contrast and conspicuity may be increased by the provision of an outer border or by mounting on a sign board with a colour contrasting to the surroundings.c) be visible from any place within the vicinity of the hazard;d) be sited at the same height throughou

46、t the aquatic facility, as far as is reasonable;e) take precedence over all other signs with the exception of escape route signing, if applicable;f) be placed so that they are not a hazard;g) be placed at sharp changes in depth, if applicable;h) be illuminated, if applicable, to ensure that they are

47、 visible and legible.Care should be taken to avoid over-provision of safety signs at one location as this can confuse viewers and result in individual safety messages not being noticed and understood.5.1.2 Mounting heightThe following principles should be applied to assist users of the facilities to

48、 predict the location of successive signs, whether they are mounted on walls, posts or overhead.a) Signs should be mounted as close as practicable to the observers line of sight in the vertical plane. For a standing adult, this will be approximately 5 up or down from a point 1 500 mm above ground level in front of the observer.b) Signs that are freestanding or mounted overhead should be placed so that they are not a hazard.c) Where practical, the space in front of the sign should be clear so that peo
