This International Standard specifies basic functional
requirements for bridge configuration, bridge arrangement,
bridge equipment and bridge environment. It has been
developed to ensure that designs of ships¿ bridges provide
adequately for the requirements for safe navigation to prevent
confusion arising from bridge arrangements which are unusual.
Wherever applicable, guidelines have been drawn up for the
methods and solutions to meet the functional requirements.
This International Standard applies to seagoing ships where
bridge duty is regularly maintained.
Where there are physical limitations in applying this International
Standard to small ships or to ships of unusual design,
the general principles should still apply.
NOTE - Users of this International Standard should note that while
attempting to observe its requirements they should, at the same time,
ensure compliance with such statutory requirements, rules and regulations
as may be applicable to the individual ship concerned.
Die grundlegenden funktionellen Anforderungen an Brückengestaltung und Brückenumfeld für seegehende Schiffe, auf denen regelmäßig Brückenwache gegangen wird, sind festgelegt.
