NOTES
1. For ships with (cc) notation, Surveyors are to compare the measurements with the original Rule thickness
and not the reduced, as built, scantlings which were approved in association with the (cc) notation.

2. For oil tankers of Category 1 the strength deck residual buckling thickness requirement is to be complied
with in accordance with Lloyd’s Register requirements as advised by the attending Surveyor.

3. Where extensive additional measurements are taken for continuous longitudinal plating these may be
reported on Form TM6 as applicable.

4. Additional Bulk Carrier diminution criteria:


4.1 Cargo hold transverse bulkheads
(a) Corrugated parts within cargo holds designed to be fully filled with salt-water ballast (deep tank) – 25%.
(b) Corrugated parts within cargo holds designed to be partially filled with salt-water ballast – 15%.
(c) Corrugated parts of the aft transverse bulkhead of the forward cargo hold – 15%, see (f), (g) below.
(d) Corrugated parts of the remaining transverse bulkheads in cargo holds – 20%.
(e) All plain transverse bulkhead plating (including stool plating) – 25%.
(f) For the aft transverse bulkhead of the forward cargo hold on bulk carriers which have been assessed
and/or upgraded in order to comply with requirements for the notation ESN-HOLD 1 & ESN-ALL HOLDS (UR
S19), refer to the Approved Bulkhead Upgrade Plan for diminution criteria.
These measurements are to be recorded on Form TM5 UR S19. In case the Approved Bulkhead Upgrade
Plan indicates that it is required to apply Classification Rules, then TM5 UR S19% should be used instead.
(g) For the bulkheads of cargo holds on bulk carriers which are contracted for construction on or after 1 July
1998, of 150m in length and above and of single skin (have been assessed in order to comply with
requirements of the notation ESN) and double skin construction, intended to carry solid bulk cargoes having
density of 1.0t/m^3, or above, with vertically corrugated transverse bulkheads (UR S18), measurements are to
be recorded on Form TM5 UR S18.
4.2 Cargo hold inner bottom and hopper sloping plating
(a) Where the notation Strengthened For Heavy Cargoes is assigned and length L is greater than 150 metres
then the maximum diminution applicable is 25%. For all other bulk carriers refer to longitudinal structural

members above.
4.3 Cargo hold transverse frames (shell frames)
For single skin bulk carriers contracted for construction prior to 1 July 1998 undergoing a re-assessment of
their cargo hold shell frames in accordance with the Provisional Rules for Existing Ships (UR S31),
measurements are to be compared against the minimum thickness values shown in the evaluation records.
These measurements are to be recorded on TM7UR S31. For all other bulk carriers refer to ’Cargo hold
transverse frames and end brackets’ above.

5. For thickness measurement evaluation purposes, ship categories are defined as follows:
Category 1: Non CSR Oil tankers, chemical tankers, dry bulk cargo ships, combination carriers and liquefied
gas ships having a length L equal to or greater than 90 metres.
Category 2: All remaining ship types not included in Category 1 and having a length L equal to or greater
than 90 metres.
Category 3: All ship types having a length L less than 90 metres.
(L is the Rule length defined in Part 3, Chapter 1.6.1 of the Rules for Ships.)

6. The maximum diminutions are for the average thickness measured over the plate area or over the length
between supports.

7. Bulk Carriers which are contracted for construction on or after 1 July 1998 (not including CSR ships), are
required to comply with the evaluation of scantlings of hatch covers of cargo holds (UR S21). In addition to
the above, Bulk Carriers, Ore Carriers and Combination Carriers contracted for construction on or after 1
January 2004 are required to comply with the evaluation of scantlings of hatch coamings of cargo holds in
accordance to UR S21.6.2.
Measurements are to be recorded on Form TM6 UR S21.

8. All ships except bulk carriers, ore carriers and combination carriers contracted for construction on or after 1
July 2012 and required to comply with the evaluation of scantlings of hatch covers and coamings on exposed
decks (UR S21A). In specific, requirements should be applied in accordance to UR S21A.7.1. Measurements
are to be recorded on Form TM6 UR S21A.

- Buckling of the web plate in the upper and lower part of the web frame.
- Fractures at the side shell longitudinal connection to web frames due to fatigue.
- Corrosion and fractures at knuckle joints in inner hull at forward and after parts of ship.
- Corrosion and fractures at the juncture where the sloped inner hull is connected to the inner
bottom.

and/or high relative deflections.
- Inner bottom deckhead, corrosion at inner bottom.
- Cracks at inner bottom longitudinal connection to double bottom floor web plating.
- Fractures at inner bottom and bottom longitudinal; connection to transverse watertight floor
due to high relative defections.
General

Structures adjacent to areas previously part renewed should be specially considered with respect to
