plate giving instructions to the effect that all closing devices shall be locked before leaving harbour, shall be
placed at the operating panel and shall be supplemented by warning indicator lights.
306 Where hydraulic cleating is applied, the system shall be mechanically lockable in the closed position.
This means that, in the event of failure of the hydraulic system, the cleating will remain locked.
307 Devices shall be arranged for the ports to be secured in open position.
B 400 Packing
401 Packing material shall be of a comparatively soft type, and the supporting forces shall be carried by the
steel structure only. Other types of packing will be specially considered.
402 Flat bars or similar fastening devices for packings shall have scantlings and welds determined with ample
considerations to wear and tear.
C. Bow Doors
C 100 General
101 Bow doors shall be situated above the freeboard deck.
102 Where bow doors are leading to a complete or long forward enclosed superstructure, an inner door shall
be fitted. The inner door shall be part of the collision bulkhead. A vehicle ramp may be arranged for this
purpose, provided the regulations concerning the position of the collision bulkhead are fulfilled, see Pt.3 Ch.1
Sec.2 B300. If this is not possible a separate inner door has to be installed.
103 Bow doors shall be fitted so as to ensure tightness consistent with operational conditions and to give
effective protection to inner doors. Inner doors shall be weathertight, and shall be arranged with supports on
the aft side of the doors.
C 200 Structural arrangement

for remote control from a convenient position and with indication of the open and closed position of every
closing device.
The operating panel for remote controlled bow doors shall be inaccessible to unauthorized persons.
304 Notice plates, giving instructions to the effect that the doors (inner and outer) shall be closed and all
closing devices locked before leaving quay-side (or terminal), shall be placed at the operating panel (or for
small doors at the door when no operating panel) and on the bridge.
305 Where hydraulic cleating is applied, the system shall be mechanically lockable in closed position. This
means that, in the event of failure of the hydraulic system, the cleating will remain locked.
306 Devices shall be arranged for the doors to be secured in open position.
D. Indication and Surveillance
D 100 Indicator system
101 Indicators shall be provided on the operating panel and on the navigation bridge for all shell doors,
loading doors and other closing appliances which, if left open or not properly secured, could lead to major
flooding of a special category space or Ro-Ro cargo space.
The indicator system shall be designed on the fail to safe principle and shall show if the door is not fully closed
or not secured.
Amended July 2011, see page 3 Rules for High Speed, Light Craft and Naval Surface Craft, January 2009
Pt.5 Ch.3 Sec.2 Page 11

The power supply for the indicator system shall be independent of the power supply for operating and securing
the doors.
D 200 Surveillance
201 Means shall be arranged, such as television surveillance or a water leakage system, to provide an
indication to the navigation bridge of any leakage through bow doors, stern doors or any other cargo or vehicle
loading doors which could lead to major flooding of special category spaces or Ro-Ro cargo spaces.
202 Special category spaces and Ro-Ro cargo spaces are either to be patrolled or monitored by effective
means, such as television surveillance, so that movement of vehicles in adverse weather and unauthorized
access by passengers can be observed whilst the ship is underway.
E. Cargo Hatches
E 100 Hatchway coamings
101 Side coamings of hatchways shall extend to the lower edge of deck beams. Side coamings not forming
part of continuous girders, are below deck to extend two frame spaces beyond the hatch ends.
102 Hatch end coamings not in line with ordinary deck transverses are below deck to extend at least three
longitudinal frame spaces beyond the side coamings.
103 If the junction of hatch coamings forms a sharp corner, well rounded brackets shall be fitted towards the
deck both longitudinally and transversely. The hatch end beam shall be given a smooth transition to the deck
transverse.
104 The web plate of low hatch side coamings shall be stiffened over the entire height at each frame. Tripping
brackets shall be fitted on every 2nd frame.
105 Cutouts in the top of hatch coamings are normally to be avoided. Unavoidable cutouts shall be circular
or elliptical in shape. Local reinforcements shall be given a soft transition in the longitudinal direction.
F. External Vehicle Ramps
F 100 Design, construction and testing
101 Vehicle ramps for shore connection are normally to be built with a grillage system of girders, and local
stiffeners in the vehicles moving direction. The ramps shall have sufficient strength for the specified design
working loads and maximum loads during hoisting operation. After end ramps shall have sufficient flexibility
for resting on the quay during loading and unloading operations with a minimum list of 3 degrees. A direct
stress analysis may have to be carried out to demonstrate that stresses and flexibility are acceptable.
102 Plates and stiffeners shall satisfy the strength requirements given in Ch.2 Sec.3 A.
103 If the ramp is also acting as a watertight door, relevant requirements given for the main class shall be
satisfied.
104 The support structure for large ramps in stowed position will have to be specially considered based on
design loads as given for heavy units in Pt.3 Ch.1 Sec.2 C. A direct stress analysis may have to be carried out.
105 Satisfactory functional tests shall be carried out.
106 Control handles for winches or operation devices shall be so arranged that they quickly revert to the
neutral (stop) position when released. Provision shall be made to lock handles in the neutral position when the
operating gear is unattended.
