3. Main transverse bulkhead may be recessed provided that all parts of the recess located on the ship's two side vertical surface inside the distance from the shell plating equal to one fifth of the breadth of the ship, and that they are at right angles to the centre line of the load line level. All parts of the recess located outside these limits laid down should be regarded as "the stairs" in accordance with paragraph 6.
4. Where a main transverse bulkhead is recessed or "step", the allocation is used for determining the equivalent flat bulkhead.
5. Where a main transverse water-tight compartment has partitions and KD or recognised organisation assumes that after the possible side damage exceeding 3.0 m length plus 3% of the length of the ship or 11 metres, or 10% of the length of the ship whichever is the less, all the main compartment will not be flooded, a proportionate can increase the permissible length otherwise required by this partition. In such a case, the effective buoyancy assumed on the undamaged side of the amount not greater than the assumed buoyancy of the damaged side.
Tolerance in accordance with this paragraph shall be made only if the following tolerance does not impede compliance with rule 8.

.1.3. Where the required subdivision factor is 0.50, the intact stability shall be adequate to withstand the flooding of any two adjacent compartments.
2.1.1. point determined by calculations carried out in accordance with the 3, 4 and 6 above and taking into account the size and technical characteristics, as well as the corrupt partition layout and configuration. In making these calculations assume that the persistence of the ship is the worst possible conditions.
.2.2. If it is intended to install sealed decks, inner skins or longitudinal bulkheads of sufficient close to seriously restrict the flow of water, proper consideration is to be given to such restrictions in the calculations.
New class B, C and D ships and existing class B RO-RO passenger ships and existing class B passenger ships other than RO-RO vessels BUILT in 1990 or later: 29 April. the resilience required 2.3 after emergency and equalization where provided, shall be determined as follows:

2.3.1. the remaining Positive. the righting lever curve minimum length to the heel of the axis is 15 ° above the balance angle. This tilting axis may be reduced to not more than 10 ° if the area under the righting lever curve set out are indicated in paragraph 2.3.3., multiplied by the ratio 15/length along the axis in degrees, which is expressed in degrees.
2.3.2. Area under the righting lever curve has at least 0.015 metrradiān, measured from the angle of equilibrium to the lesser of the following: 1. angle the angle at which progressive flooding occurs;. 2.22 ° (measured from the upright) in the case of one compartment flooding, or 27 ° (measured from the upright) in the two adjacent compartments at the same time in case of flooding.
2.3.3. Remaining righting is to be found within the limits of positive stability, taking into account the greatest of the following heeling moments: 1. all passenger ship sadrūzmēšan in one side;. 2. all fully loaded davit-launched survival craft on one side;. 3. due to wind pressure;
calculated using the following formula: heeling moment GZ (meters) = – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – + 0.04 displacement righting must not, however, be less than 0.10 metres.
2.3.4. To calculate.. referred to in 2.3.3 heeling moment, the following assumptions: 1. heeling moment due to passengers scramble to one side of the ship: 1.1. four persons per square metre;. 1.2. one passenger mass is 75 kg; 1.3. passengers shall be distributed on available deck areas towards one side of the ship on the decks where assembly stations and in such a way that they produce the most adverse heeling moment.
2. the heeling moment due to all fully loaded davit-launched survival craft on one side:. 2.1. assumes that all lifeboats and rescue boats fitted on the side to which the ship has heeled after, fully loaded and ready for lowering;. 2.2. If fully loaded lifeboat is designed to derail the strengthened position, the maximum heeling moment during launching shall be determined; 2.3. assumes a fully loaded davit-launched life-raft attached to each davit on the side to which the ship has heeled after landing;. 2.4. people who do not find in the case for lowering lifeboats shall not provide either additional heeling or righting moment; 2.5. assumes that the means of rescue, located on the opposite side of the vessel in a stowed position.
3. Heeling moment caused by wind pressure:. 3.1. Class b: a wind pressure of 120 applied N/m2;
(C) and (D) class: wind pressure apply 80 N/m2.3.2 the applicable area is the projected lateral area above the waterline corresponding to the intact condition; 3.3 the moment arm shall be the vertical distance from a point at one half of the mean draught corresponding to the intact condition to the Centre of gravity of the lateral area.
.2.4. When a large progressive flooding, it causes a rapid reduction in the righting lever of 0.04 metres or more for, and must consider that the righting lever curve ends at an angle at which progressive flooding begins, and 2.3.2 and 2.3.1. paragraph pozetīv of the persistence length on heeling axis and area should be measured to that angle.
.2.5. If the progressive flooding is small, do not continue to rise and cause a relatively slow reduction in righting lever of less than 0.04 metres, remaining partially cuts off the curve, assuming that the progressively flooded space is flooded from the outset.
2.6. at an intermediate state of the Flooding. the maximum righting lever shall be at least 0.05 metres and length of positive righting on the axis of the heel is at least 7 °. In all cases, it must be assumed that there is only one damage in the hull and only one free surface.
New class B, C and D ships and existing class B ships:. 3. to calculate the intact, use the following volume and surface permeability, permeability (%)
Cargo or goods storage premises for Living room 60 95 engine rooms 85 for Liquids or 95 * 0 * depending on which requirements are more stringent.
Assumes that the surface permeability is higher in those rooms that damaged the nearby peldvirsm substantial quantity of accommodation or machinery and spaces which are usually not in substantial quantity of cargo or goods.
4. Assume that the extent of damage shall be as follows: 1. length: 3.0 metres plus 3% of the length of the ship, or 11.0 metres, or 10% of the length of the ship whichever is the less; 2. transverse (measured from inside the ship's side at right angles to the centreline at the level of the deepest subdivision load line): one fifth of the breadth of the ship; and vertical: 3 from the base up the vertical without restrictions;. 4. If the damage is less than that specified in 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3., would cause the serious consequences on the heel or loss of metacentric height, such damage should be made for the calculation.
5. Irregular flooding should be reduced as far as possible, by taking effective measures. If you need to adjust the high bank angle, the means chosen, if practicable operate automatically, but in any case, if there are self-acting, they must be controlled from above the bulkhead deck. New class B, C and D ships the maximum angle of heel after flooding but before equalization shall not exceed 15 °. If there is a storm devices, smoothing time shall not exceed 15 minutes. The master of the ship shall provide sufficient information for storm devices.
6. Final conditions of the ship after damage and, in the case of unsymmetrical flooding, after equalisation measures have been taken, as follows: 1. in the case of unsymmetrical flooding, the positive residual metacentric height of at least 50 mm as calculated by the constant displacement method;. 2 a). 6.2 b) if otherwise provided for in paragraph 1, in the case of unsymmetrical flooding the angle of heel, flooded one compartment shall not exceed 7 ° for class B ships (new and existing) and 12 ° (C) and (D) class ships (new ship).
If you flooded two adjacent compartments, new and existing class B ships heel of 12 ° may be permitted provided that the subdivision factor flooded part of the ship is nowhere greater than 0.50.

2. b) existing passenger ships of class B non ro-ro vessels and were built before 29 April 1990, in the case of unsymmetrical flooding the angle shall not exceed 7 °, except in exceptional cases, when more additional heel due to unsymmetrical flooding, but the final heel shall in no case exceed 15 °.
3. Margin line in the final stage of flooding shall not be immersed. If you believe that the margin line may sink into the flooding at an intermediate stage of manufacture, may require such studies and measures deemed necessary for the safety of the ship.
7. The master of a ship shall provide the data necessary to maintain sufficient intact stability in operating the ship intact condition to enable the ship to withstand serious damage. If ships need storm device, the master of the ship shall be informed of the conditions of stability on which the calculations of heel have been conducted, and warn him that you may encounter excessive heeling, if the ship sustains damage by working in less-favoured circumstances.
8. The previous paragraph 7 data, allowing the master to maintain sufficient intact stability of the vessel condition, includes information on maximum permissible height of the ship's centre of gravity above keel (KG), or alternatively the minimum permissible metacentric height (GM) at various draughts or displacement, reflecting all operating conditions. Information is indication of the influence of various trims taking into account operational limits.
9. each fore and aft of the ship is clearly marked for the draught mark. If the draught marks are not marked where they are easy to read, or operational limitations in a given type of activity complicates the draught mark reading, also be equipped with vessel safe draught reading system, which can detect the bow and the stern sank.
10. When you have finished loading, the ship before its departure, the master shall determine the ship's trim and stability and also check and record the fact that the ship complies with the relevant provisions laid down in the stability criteria. Stability is always determined using the calculations. For this purpose you can use electronic loading and stability computer or equivalent device.
11. May not impose requirements for facilitating the sustainability emergency, unless it is confirmed that these requirements do not want damaged the vessel's metacentric height in any service condition is great for the intended operation of the .11.
12. Facilitate requirements for emergency persistence allows only in exceptional cases, provided that the ship's size, structure and other characteristics, which can practically and reasonably be adopted in certain operating conditions, the best resistance in case of emergency.
