Document description:

The standards outlined in this booklet have been developed by the Board of Steamship Inspection, Department of Transport, and indicate conditions of approval and criteria used by the approval authority in assessing submissions required by regulations written under the Canada Shipping Act.

The standards and accompanying notes have been compiled for the guidance of the Steamship Inspection field and headquarter’s staff, as well as for industry in general.

The criteria outlined in the various standards denote minimum requirements with no maximum limits having been set. The standards are intended to supplement the regulations in matters of detail to ensure uniform minimum across the country and to give a base from which shipowners, shipbuilders, and designers may work. For convenience this booklet has been divided into three parts, namely(I) Stability, (II) Subdivision and (III) Load Lines, and each Standard within each Part is numbered.

As additions and amendments are issued, they will be marked with the appropriate Part and Standard number for insertion in this booklet.
