This Guide provides quantifiable assessment criteria and describes the measurement methodology for obtaining a "Habitability" (HAB or HAB+) notation focusing on Accommodations Design, Human Whole-Body Vibration, Noise, Indoor Climate and Lighting. For non-ABS Classed installations, ABS Consulting offers certification to the Habitability criteria.
As this Guide is still a draft, reader feedback is welcome.
