    The document discusses recommendations for improving bulk carrier safety, including strengthening bulkheads and double bottoms on new ships to withstand hold flooding. For existing ships, structural strengthening or loading restrictions may be required, and any restrictions must be marked by a triangle on the hull. An enhanced survey program and loading monitoring equipment are also recommended to detect weaknesses or stresses.

    Stronger new ships


    • Increase the strength of bulkheads and the
    double bottom to withstand hold-flooded
    conditions.

    Existing ships

    • The bulkhead
    between holds 1
    and 2 and the
    double bottom of
    hold 1 must be
    strengthened to
    withstand flooding
    in hold 1 unless
    loading
    restrictions are
    imposed.

    Slide TitleRestrictions on carriage of cargoes

    Existing bulk carriers which meet the new


    structural requirements by means of loading
    restrictions must be marked with a solid
    equilateral triangle on the hull at midships below
    the deck line.

    • Any restrictions imposed on the carriage of solid bulk


    cargoes having a density of 1,780
    kg/m3 and above shall be permanently marked on the
    side shell at midships, port and starboard, with a solid
    equilateral triangle having sides of 500 mm and its
    apex 300 mm below the deck line. Triangle on bulk carrier
