ABS RULES FOR BUILDING AND CLASSING STEEL VESSELS 2001 i

Notices and General Information

Introduction
1. The year 2001 edition of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels is a complete
reprint of the 2000 edition, consisting of the nine (9) booklets as shown in Table 1. In this
regard, we would bring the following to the user’s attention:

a) The title of PART 1 has been changed from “General Provisions” to “Conditions of
Classification” to more accurately reflect the contents.
b) The purpose of the generic title ABS Rule Requirements for Materials and Welding
of PART 2 is to emphasize the common applicability of the requirements to
ABS-classed vessels, other marine structures and their associated machinery, and
thereby make PART 2 more readily a common “PART” of various ABS Rules and
Guides, as appropriate.
c) For the subject 2001 edition, the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels – Part
7: Operations and Maintenance was re-titled as the ABS Rule Requirements for
Surveys After Construction – Part 7. The purpose of this generic title is to reflect the
expanded contents of PART 7, as a result of including consolidated requirements for
“Surveys After Construction” applicable to all types and sizes of vessels, barges and
specific shipboard arrangements/systems, etc., as specified in Part 7, Chapter 1,
Section 1.
2. The numbering system applied in the Rules is shown in Table 2. A comparison of the old
“1999” numbering system versus the 2001 numbering system is shown in Table 4 as a guide
map for users who are familiar with the previous existing Rules. However, excluded is Part 7
– ABS Rule Requirements for Survey After Construction because its content has been
significantly expanded as stated in 1c above.

3. The primary changes from the 2000 edition of the Rules are identified and listed in Table 3.
The effective date of the indicated Rule Changes is 1 January 2001, unless specifically
indicated otherwise.

4. The effective date of each technical change since 1993 is shown in parenthesis at the end of
the subsection/paragraph titles within the text of each Part. Unless a particular date and
month are shown, (2001) refers to 1 January 2001, (2000) refers to 1 January 2000, (1999)
refers to 12 May 1999, (1998) refers to 13 May 1998, (1997) refers to 19 May 1997, (1996)
refers to 9 May 1996, (1995) refers to 15 May 1995, (1994) refers to 9 May 1994 and (1993)
refers to 11 May 1993 effective dates.

5. In Part 1 “Conditions of Classification” of the subject Rules, there is introduced an Appendix

2 for the user’s ready reference, which provides a listing of CLASSIFICATION SYMBOLS
AND NOTATIONS available to the Owners of vessels, offshore drilling and production units
and other marine structures and systems.
