(7) type ' B ' ship, which in position 1 is fitted with hatch have the hatchway covers complying with the requirements of regulation 15 (7) or regulation 16, shall, except as provided in paragraph (8) to (13) inclusive of this regulation, be assigned freeboard is based on table B of regulation 28 (8) Any type ' B ' ship over 100 m in length may be assigned freeboard is less than those required under paragraph (7) , provided that, in relations to the amount of the reduction granted by the Administration is satisfied that: (a) the measure provided for by the protection of the crew with the adequat; (b) the freeing arrangements with the adequat; (c) the cover in position 1 and 2 comply with the provision of regulation 16 and have strength, adequat special care being given to their sealing and securing arrangements; and (d) the ship, when loaded in accordanc with the requirements of paragraph (11) shall be able to withstand the flooding of any compartment, with compartmen or an assumed permeability of 0.95, the consequen upon the damage specified in paragraph of the assumption (12), and you shall remain in a satisfactory condition of aflo equilibrium, as specified in paragraph (13). In such a ship, if over 150 m in length, the machinery space shall be treated as a floodabl, but with a compartmen permeability of margin. (9) In calculating the freeboard for type ' B ' ships which comply with the requirements of paragraph (8), (11), (12) and (13), the values from table B of regulation 28 shall not be reduced by more than 60% of the difference between the B and A tabular values for the appropriate ship length. (10) (a) the reduction in tabular freeboard allowed under paragraph (9) may be increased up to the total difference between the values in table A and those in table B of regulation 28 on condition that the ship with the requirements to compl of (i) Regulations 26, other than paragraph (4), as if it were a type ' A ' ship; (ii) in paragraph (8), (11) and (13) of this regulation; and (iii) in paragraph (12) of this regulation, provided that throughout the length of the ship any one transverse bulkhead will be assumed to be a damaged, such that two adjacent for and aft compartment shall be simultaneously, except for flooded a that such damage will not apply to the boundary bulkhead of a machinery space. (b) In such a ship, if over 150 m in length, the machinery space shall be treated as a floodabl is, but with a compartmen permeability of a margin.  Initial condition of loading (11) the initial condition of loading shall be determined before flooding as follows: (a) the ship is loaded to its summer load on an imaginary event waterlin keel. (b) When calculating the vertical centre of gravity, the following principles apply: (i) Homogeneo of the cargo is carried, (ii) All cargo compartment, except to those referred to under (iii), but including a compartment intended to be partially filled, shall be considered to be fully loaded except that in the case of fluid cargo to be treated for each axis 98 compartmen IR% full. (iii) If the ship is intended to operate at its summer load waterlin with empty compartment, compartment shall be considered such an empty provided the height of the Centre of gravity so calculated is not less than as calculated under (ii). (iv) 50% of the individual capacity of all the tanks and fitted it contains a consumabl of space liquid and sturgeon is allowed for. It shall be assumed that for each type of liquid, at least one transverse pair or a single centrelin tank has maximum free surface, and the tank or combination of tanks to be taken into account shall be those where the effect of free surface is of the greatest; in each tank at the center of gravity of the contents shall be taken at the Centre of the volume of the tank. The remaining tanks shall be assumed either completely empty or completely filled, and the distribution of the liquid consumabl between these tanks shall be effected so as to obtain the greatest possible height above the keel for the center of gravity. (v) At an angle of keel of note more than 5 ° in each containing a liquid, sharp compartmen prescribed in (ii) using the a in the case of a compartment containing the consumabl fluid, as prescribed in (iv), the maximum free surface effect shall be taken into account. Alternatively, the actual free surface effects may be used provided the methods of calculation with the Administration of the acceptabl. (vi) shall be calculated weights on the basis of the following values for the specific gravit: salt water fresh water 1,232 1000 oil fuel diesel oil self-lubricating oil 0.950 0900 0900 damage assumption (12) the following principles regarding the character of the assumed damage apply: (a) the vertical exten of damage in all cases is assumed to be from the base line upward without limit. (b) the transverse the exten of damage is equal to B/5 or 11.5 m, whichever is the lesser, measured inboard from the side of the ship to the centrelin perpendicularly at the level of the summer load waterlin. (c) If damage of a lesser than specified in subparagraph exten to (a) and (b) results in a more sever condition, such shall be assumed to be the lesser exten. (d) Except where otherwise required by paragraph (10) (a), shall be confined by the flooding to a single between the adjacent transverse to the compartmen bulkhead provided the inner longitudinal boundary of the to is not in a position compartmen within the transverse the exten of assumed damage. The transverse bulkhead boundary of wing tanks which do not extend over the full breadth of the ship shall be assumed not to be damaged, provided they extend beyond the transverse exten of the assumed damage prescribed in subparagraph (b). If in a transverse bulkhead is there step or recess of not more than 3 m in length located within the transverse is assumed as exten of damage defined in subparagraph (b), may be considered such a transverse bulkhead intact and the adjacent to the floodabl be a singly compartmen may. If, however, within the transverse exten of the assumed damage there is a step or a reces of more than 3 m in length in a transverse bulkhead, the two-compartment in the adjacent to the bulkhead shall be considered as flooded by. The step by the afterpeak bulkhead and formed the afterpeak tank top shall not be regarded as a step for the purpose of this regulation. (e) where a main transverse bulkhead is the located within the transverse exten of the assumed damage and is stepped in the way of a double bottom or side tanks by more than 3 m, the double bottom or side tanks adjacent to the stepped portions of the main transverse bulkhead shall be considered as flooded by simultaneously. If the tank has a side opening, into one or several holds, such as grain feeding holes, such holds shall be considered or hold as flooded simultaneously. Similarly in a ship designed for the carriage of cargo, if (a) the fluid side tank has a compartment opening into adjacent adjacent to compartment, such will shall be considered as empty and as being simultaneously flooded. This provision is applicable even where such opening with a fitted with closing appliances, except in the East of the sluic valve fitted in the bulkhead between the tank and where the valve with controlled from the deck. Manhol cover with closely spaced bolts are considered equivalent to the bulkhead using the unpierced in the case of opening in the topsid tank topsid tank is making common to the hold. (f) where the flooding of any two adjacent for and aft compartment is envisaged in the bulkhead of watertigh transverse change shall be spaced at least 1/3 l 2/3 or 14.5 m, whichever is the lesser, in order to be considered effective. Where a bulkhead with a transverse spaced at a lesser distance, one or more of these shall be assumed by the bulkhead as non-existent in order to achieve the minimum spacing between bulkhead.  Condition of equilibrium (13) the condition of equilibrium after flooding shall be regarded as satisfactory provided: (a) the final waterlin after flooding, taking into account sinkag, heel and trim, is below the lower edge of any opening through which progressive downflooding may take place. Such opening shall include in the air pipes, and opening in which a fan with a mean of closedby weathertigh door (even if they comply with regulation 12) or hatch covers (even if they comply with regulation 16 or regulation 19 (4)), and may exclude those opening closed by means of manhol cover and flush scuttl (which comply with regulation 18) cargo hatch covers of the type described in regulation 27 (2) , remotely operated sliding door, and sidescuttl watertigh of the non-opening type (which comply with regulation 23). However, in the case of doors separating a change machinery space from a steering gear, the doors compartmen watertigh may be of a hinged, quick acting type a closed at sea, the skipper a whilst not in use, provided also that the lower sill of such doors is above the summer load waterlin. (b) If pipes, or tunnel with patent ductus is situated within the assumed exten of damage as defined in paragraph penetration (12) (b), the arrangements shall be made so that progressive flooding cannot thereby extend it to others than those assumed in the compartment to be floodabl in the calculation for each case of damage. (c) the angle of heel due to unsymmetrical flooding does not exceeds 100 15 °. If from on of the deck is immersed, an angle of heel of up to 17 ° may be accepted. (d) the metacentric height in the flooded condition is positive. (e) When any part of a deck outside the assumed to be flooded in a particular compartmen case of damage is immersed, or in any case where the margin of stability in the flooded condition may be considered doubtful, the residual stability is to be investigated. It may be regarded as sufficient if the righting lever curve has a minimum range of 20 ° beyond the position of equilibrium with (a) the maximum righting lever of at least 0. l m within this range. The area under the righting lever curve the within this range shall be not less than 0.0175 URm.rad. The Administration shall give considerations to the potential hazard presented by protected or unprotected opening of which may become immersed within the OK range of residual stability. (f) the Administration is satisfied that the stability is sufficient during the intermediate stage of flooding.  Ship without means of propulsion (14) (A) lighter, harsh or other ship without independent means of propulsion shall be assigned a freeboard in accordanc with the provision of these regulations. Stern's which meet the requirements of paragraphs (2) and (3) may be assigned a type ' A ' freeboard: (a) the Administration should especially consider the stability of Stern's with cargo on the weather deck. Deck cargo can only be carried on stern to which the ordinary type ' B ' freeboard is assigned. (b) However, in the case of Stern's which are unmanned, the requirements of regulations 5, 26 (2), 26 (3) and shall note 39 apply. (c) Such unmanned hard of which on the freeboard deck have only small access opening is closed by a gasketed covers of steel watertigh or equivalent material may be assigned a freeboard 25% less than those calculated in accordanc with these regulations.

Questions about the vessels that are longer than 200 m, be settled by the administration. 7. Type "B" ships 1. zone is here, which is equipped with 15 (7) of the rules, or rule 16. requirements the hatch latch, except in accordance with the provisions of 8 to 13 part, the freeboard shall be determined on the basis of the provisions of (B), table 28. 8. any type "B" ship, which is longer than 100 m, you can determine the freeboard of less than those required under Part 7, provided that in respect of the reduction granted to meet that the Administration: (a) measures taken to protect the crew are appropriate; (b) devices for the release of water from the deck is appropriate; (c) zone 1 and zone 2 of the shuttle meets the requirements of regulation 16 and have adequate strength, special attention being paid to their conclusion and securing devices; and (d) the ship is loaded in accordance with part 11 requirements, is able to withstand any partition or partition flooding a permeability 0.95 arising from part 12. assumptions about the damage and stay floating in a satisfactory equilibrium as set out in part 13. This type of vessel, if it is greater than 150 m, engine room deemed as aplūstoš partition, with permeability 0.85.9. Calculating the residual freeboard type "B" ships, which corresponds to 8, 11, 12 and 13 part B rules, 28 table values corresponding to the length of the vessel may not be reduced more than 60% of the value of (B) and (A) table. 10. (a) the freeboard reduction specified in the tables authorized in accordance with part 9, may increase to 28 (A) and (B) a table of table values absolute difference, provided that the ship complies with: (i) the requirements of regulation 26, which are distinct from the requirements of part 4, as if it were a type "A" ship; (ii) paragraphs 8, 11 and 13 of part; and (iii) this provision 12. part provided that along the length of the ship, any transverse bulkhead is considered as damaged in such a way that two adjacent existing bow and stern compartments flooded at the same time, except that this shall not apply to machinery spaces delimiting partitions. (b) such a vessel, if it is longer than 150 m, engine room deemed as applūstoš the partition, with the transmission in the initial occupancy of 0.85. State 11. Initial loading of the situation before the flooding as follows: (a) the ship is loaded to the summer load waterline assuming the ship is on an even keel. (b) in calculating the vertical centre of gravity, the following principles shall apply: (i) the uniform cargo are transported, (ii) all cargo, except those covered by (ii) above, but including the partitions for partially filled, is considered as fully loaded, except in the case of liquid cargo when each partition is considered 98% filled. (iii) if the vessel is expected to operate at the summer load waterline with empty partitions, the following partition are considered empty, provided that in this way the calculated Centre of gravity height shall not be less than the calculated in accordance with (ii). (iv) are allowed that 50% of all tanks and space in some capacity is equipped for the carriage of liquids for consumption and stocks. It is assumed that each type of liquid at least one transverse pair of tanks or individual Diametral plane tank is with a maximum free surface, and the tank or a tank mix to reckon, should be the most free-surface effects; the contents of each tank of the Centre of gravity should be accepted as an existing tank capacity. The remaining tanks shall be adopted either on a completely empty or completely filled, and the consumption of the liquid distribution between those tanks must be such as to obtain the largest possible height of centre of gravity above keel. (v) At the bottom of the slope no more than 50, each bin containing liquids in accordance with (ii) except if the partition containing the liquid consumables, as defined in subparagraph (iv), takes into account the maximum free surface effects. Alternatively, you can use the actual free surface effects, provided that the Administration has accepted this method of calculation. (vi) the weight is calculated on the basis of the following, certain specific weight size: 1,232 freshwater saltwater 1000 diesel oil fuel lubricating oil 0.950 0900 0900 article 1. Damage assumptions 12. the nature of the damage taken To apply the following principles: (a) in all cases of damage to the vertical direction is taken from the base line upwards without limit. (b) the size of the transverse Defects is equal to B/5 or 11.5 m, taking the smallest, measured at the inside of the ship's side perpendicular to the central axis of the summer load waterline level. (c) if the size of the damage less than (a) and (b) paragraphs which the condition worsens, the result of having such a lesser damage. (d) except in cases where required, other than those provided for in part (a) of the 10 point requirement, flood, is associated with a single, between adjacent partitions existing partition, with the condition that this partition internal longitudinal boundary in the transverse size of the damage taken. The sides of the tank, which are not across the Board, the width of the transverse partitions are made of sound provided that it is behind the transverse size of the damage taken to the limit, as specified in point (b). If a transverse bulkhead is recessed or step, which is not more than 3 m in length and located in damage taken in a transverse direction, as specified in point (b), the following partition may be considered unspoiled and adjacent partition can be inundated. If, however, the damage taken by the transverse size existing partitions is a step or more than 3 m long recesses, this partition of two adjacent partitions are referred to as submerged. The step, which consists of the afterpeak bulkhead and after peak tank top, is not considered a step to which this provision applies. (e) if the primary partition is located on the transverse size of damage taken and when more than 3 m step consisting of a double bottom or side tanks, double bottom or side tanks, located next to the main part of the step of šķērsien is considered as a appludinām at the same time. If the side of the tank is open in one or more of the cargo, such as the supply of cereals to the shaft, the shaft or shafts are considered as flooded at the same time. Also, a ship designed for the carriage of liquid cargo, if it is opening the side tank to adjacent bins, the next partition is considered as empty and applūstoš simultaneously. This provision shall apply even where the openings are fitted with closing devices, except where the drain valves fitted in bulkheads between tanks and valves which regulate the deck. With bolts screwed into manholes in the waste are considered equivalent of partitions without holes, except where there are openings on the front-end side tanks, resulting in tanks similar to cargo spaces. (f) Where an anticipated any two adjacent fore and aft compartments flooded, the main places a waterproof partition with at least 1/3 or 3L2/14, 5 m spacing, taking less, to allow more efficient. Which partition is deployed at less, one or more of these partitions as non-existent, for minimum spacing between bulkheads. 13. Equilibrium State of equilibrium after the flooding is considered as satisfactory, provided that: (a) the final waterline after flooding, taking into account the draft, heel and trim, is below the lower edge of any openings, through which progressive flooding could continue. These openings include air pipes, fans and vents that are closed by watertight doors (even if they comply with rule 12) or the hatch latch (even if they meet the 16 or 19. (4) the requirements of rules) and you can turn off the outlet, which closed with a latch, manholes deck portholes (corresponding to rule 18), 27 (2) the provisions of the form described in the cargo hatch latch, remote sliding watertight doors, and not of the sidescuttles veramo (corresponding to 23.). However, when the door separates the main engine of the steering compartment, the watertight doors may be hinged, high speed, which is closed, as long as they are not applied, provided also that the lower part of the door above the summer load waterline. (b) if the pipes, ducts or passages are placed in size of damage taken, as stated in part (b) of 12 points, then such measures are taken, the flooding could not be spread to other partitions except the bins are made of applūstoš for calculations for each damage event. (c) the heeling angle asymmetrical flooding does not exceed 15 °. Can accept up to 17 ° high bank angle, if any part of the deck is not submerged. (d) the metacentric height inundated the State is positive. (e) as soon as any part of the deck, which is outside the bin, which is treated as a separate case of damage was flooding, is immersed or in any case where the limit of sustainability in the inundated State may be considered questionable, must find the remaining resistance. It can be regarded as sufficient if the righting of chart positive shoulder minimum length is 20 ° behind the balance condition and with the maximum righting lever of at least 0.1 chart m in this range. The area under the righting lever curve in the range must not be less than 0.0175 m. rad. The Administration should take into account the potential danger posed by the protected or unprotected openings, which can soak up the residual stability range. (f) Administration of complaint, if the resistance is sufficient intermediate stages of flooding. Vessels without engines 14. Lighter, barge or other vessel without constant engines residual freeboard determined in accordance with the conditions of these rules. Trains that meet point 2 and 3 requirements, you can determine the type "A": (a) the residual freeboard Administration should especially take into account the barge persistence, carrying cargo on the open deck. Deck cargo can carry only the barges, which are definitely the most common, type "B" freeboard. (b) However, where the trains are without crew, 5 have not been applied, 26 (2), 26 (3) and rule 39. (c) the following trains without crew, which discovered the deck only has small openings that fastened with watertight sealing of steel or equivalent material covers, you can determine about 25% less than the freeboard in accordance with these terms calculated. " 37. the rule. Derogations and the body part 2 the ventilation pipe table notes "A" and type "B" ships, after the word "body" is inserted the words "and" the ventilation pipe. 38. the rule.

In addition, and as far as practicable near the central line, the vessel must be advised to the rescue, the rail of steel ropes, which are mounted with the clamping screw. All guard rails and rescue railing stanchions supports located so as to prevent excessive droop. Where cargo is not aligned, above the cargo must be mounted at least 600 mm wide, secure surface for walking, which is effectively fixed below, or next to the railing of the rescue. 9. Which part 8 contains the requirements are not feasible, the alternative is made measures that are acceptable to the administration. 10. Steering control the steering control must be effectively protected from damage which arises from the load and, as far as practicable, be available. To take effective precautionary steps for steering if there has been a main steering device crash. " 45. the rule. Freeboard calculation part 5 of the words "or with 40.
