Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents ).

The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 8, Ships and marine technology, Subcommittee SC 1, Lifesaving and fire protection.

ISO 24409 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ships and marine technology — Design, location and use of shipboard safety signs, safety-related signs, safety notices and safety markings:

• Part 1: Design principles
• Part 2: Catalogue
• Part 3: Code of practice

Introduction

The growth of international travel by ship has created a need to provide people travelling and working on-board ships with signs and associated systems that communicate consistent and effective safety information. This part of ISO 24409 specifies a system of safety and safety-related signs on ships and other marine installations that is generally consistent with standardized signs with which many will have gained familiarity in other applications.

As such, this part of ISO 24409 clarifies and supplements existing requirements set out in SOLAS regulations II-2/13.3.2.5.1, III/9.2.3, III/11.5, III/20.10, and ISO 17631. However, it is directly applicable to shipboard safety and safety-related signs only, and does not deal with graphical symbols to be used on shipboard plans or documentation.

This part of ISO 24409 contains a catalogue of signs developed in accordance with the general design principles specified in Part 1, for application on ships in accordance with the code of practice in Part 3.

1 Scope

This part of ISO 24409 prescribes standardized signs and safety notices specifically for use on board ships. Each sign is categorized and indexed according to the safety message that is to be conveyed. Each sign is provided with relevant information on the preferred format of use, the context in which it is used and displayed as well as a description of the intended audience. The shape and colour required to be used for each sign, as prescribed by ISO 3864-4, are given together with the graphical symbols contained within each sign. This part of ISO 24409 specifies the sign originals that may be scaled for reproduction and application purposes. It includes signs which require supplementary text signs to be used in conjunction with them to improve comprehension. This catalogue is intended to be under continual revision as new shipboard signs and notices are added and as new requirements are identified and corresponding safety signs and notices are developed and standardised. Where an ISO 7010 reference number is given in this part of ISO 24409 it means that the sign is identical to the one in ISO 7010.
