7.1 Local strengthening of the walls and ceilings
in the cabin and corridors should be provided for mounting heavy items
of furniture such as beds, cupboards, railings, etc., if necessary.
7.2 On all ro-ro passenger ships, the corridor
panel system should be capable of supporting the evenly distributed
load as required by SOLAS regulation II-2/28-1.
7.3 Draught stops in ceiling and lining voids
should be erected in accordance with the relevant regulations in SOLAS
chapter II-2.
7.4 The method of connecting the corridor panels
to cabin unit panels (if these panels are separate) needs special
consideration where the corridor to cabin doors could be connected
to both panel structures and the corridor panels may be partially
supported by adjacent cabin construction (see figures 3.1-1, 3.1-2,
3.2-1, 3.2-2, 4.1-1, 4.1-2, 7.4-1 and 7.4-2).
7.5 Special attention should be given to the joints
of the structural components (such as ceilings, bulkheads, linings,
bathroom units) from different manufacturers in order to maintain
the required fire integrity and, where required, the continuous "B"
class construction (see figure 3.1-3).
