General

This standard comprises sections with provisions applicable to all types of offshore floating ship shaped units, and sections with provisions for specific types of units such as well intervention/drilling units and FPSOs.

This standard is based on the principles of the Working Stress Design (WSD). In WSD the target component level is achieved by keeping the calculated stress for different load combinations equal to or lower than the maximum stress. The maximum permissible stress is defined by multiplication of the capacity, of the structural member with permissible usage factors.
