Industry seeks a 'safe system' for container handling

摘要

Ships have, in the past, been designed with working arrangements that support safe and effective securing. For existing ships with design shortfalls, it is frequently possible to make low cost modifications.rnWork is underway at the IMO, and the specific requirements in the proposed Annex to the CSS Code may well change. Similarly, the Provisional Rules have not yet been published and are still undergoing review. It is the hope that these initiatives, and the initiatives by the terminal operators, can converge on a common cost-effective set of design criteria.
