21A.15 Machinery Space Boundaries

  21A.15.1 Where machinery spaces are adjacent to accommodation spaces, the boundaries should be designed to be gas tight. The requirement to be gas-tight is taken to mean that bulkheads should be so constructed as to prevent ingress of water and noxious gases into adjacent cabins as far as is reasonable and practicable to do so.

  21A.15.2 Machinery space boundaries must retain any liquids which may leak from the equipment within the machinery space.
