1.1.1 This Chapter
specifies the requirements for the corrosion protection of ships and
other marine structures. In general, suitable protective systems may
include coatings, corrosion resistant materials, cathodic protection,
corrosion allowances or other approved methods, either individually
or in combination. Corrosion protection systems should be selected
with consideration for the design life of the structure, and the in-service
inspection and maintenance regimes.
1.1.2 The materials
and processes described in this Chapter are to be considered in accordance
with the requirements of the relevant design and construction Rules,
as well as the ShipRight Procedure Anti-Corrosion System Notation.
Where applicable, the requirements of current statutory legislation
must be satisfied.
