Reg XII/8: Information on Compliance
To
indicate compliance with the retroactive structural and stability
standards, a loading booklet containing stability and structural
limits, maximum allowable deadweight per hold, ballasting rates
and capacity, and any loading/unloading sequencing and restrictions,
is to be endorsed to indicate compliance with the stability, structural
and survey requirements as noted above.
Further,
ships subject to loading restrictions in order to comply with regulation
6 will be identified by a solid equilateral triangle permanently
marked 300mm below the deck edge, amidships, on both sides of the
ship.
Separately,
under SOLAS Regulation VI/7.2, the above mentioned loading booklet
is required to be on board all ships > 500 gt carrying solid
bulk cargo by 1 July 1998, although it need not be in an approved
format until 1 July 1999 for ships subject to the provisions of
SOLAS Chapter XII.
