Disclosure to Promote the Right To Information

Whereas the Parliament of India has set out to provide a practical regime of right to
information for citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities,
in order to promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority,
and whereas the attached publication of the Bureau of Indian Standards is of particular interest
to the public, particularly disadvantaged communities and those engaged in the pursuit of
education and knowledge, the attached public safety standard is made available to promote the
timely dissemination of this information in an accurate manner to the public.

1 Scope

This International Standard specifies requirements for watertight and oillight manholes of the current type with
bolted covers, for general shipboard use other than for pressure vessels.

It specifies the dimensions for the holes in the prating and the number, size and position of the fasteners. All forms
of manhole, whether of raised coaming, surface mounted or recessed cover types, shall conform to th~se principal
particulars.

The details of the manholes shall be the responsibility of the manufacturer.

NOTE Users of this International Standard should note that, whi:e observing the requirements of the standard, they should
at the same lime ensure compl iance with such statutory requirements. rules and regulations as may be applicable to the
individual ship concerned.

2 Normative reference

The follow ing normative document contains provisions which, through reference in this text , constitute provisions of
this tnternationat Standard. For a dated reference, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, the publications do
not app ly. However, parties fa agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the
possibility 'of applying the most recent edition of the normative document indicated below. For an undated
reference , the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and lEG maintain
registers of currently valid International Standards. .

ISO 262: 1998, ISO general-purpose me/ric screw threads - Selectedsizes for screws, bolts and nuts.

3 Typical forms, nominal sizes and dimensions

All dimensions are given in milimetres.

Manholes sha ll be classified as type 0 or E according to nominal sizes (see Figures 1 to 3 and Table 1).

The dimensions of the manholes and the spacing of the fasteners shail be in accordance with Figures 1 to 7 and
Tables 1 and 2.

The nominal size 1.1 .< b 1, sha ll correspond to the length and breadth of the clear opening as given in Figures 1 to·3.

The thread of fasteners (nuts and bolls) shall be in accordance with ISO 262.

NOTE 1 Figure 1 shows examples of surface mounted and raised coaming forms of manholes.

The recessed form of manholes shall be similar. In order to ensure interchangeability of covers and gaskets, the
dimensions of these components and the fastener coord inates shall also be as given in this International Standard.

NOTE 2 Figur,,: 1 shows welded studs as an example. Other reliable joints between the studs and plate ring are perrnisslbla,

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical with ISO 5894 : 1999 'Ships and manne technology -- Manholes
with bolted covers' issued by the International Orqanizauor: for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the
Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Shipbuilding Sectional Committee and approval of
the Transport Engineering Division Council.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an lndian Standard without
deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is
particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words 'International Standmd' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as
'Indian Standard'.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker III the International Standard while In Indian Standards,
the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.

In this adopted standard relerenco appears to the tollowmq tnternatronal Standard for which lndran Standard
also exists. Tho corresponding Indian Standard, which IS to be substituted In Its place, IS listed below along
with Its degree of equivalence for the edition indicated:

Internat.onal Standard Corresponding Indian Standard Degree of Equivalence

ISO 262: 1998 General purpose metnc IS 4218 (part 4) : 2001 ISO General Identical
screw threads -- Selected sizes for purpose metric screw threads: Part 4
screws, bolts and nuts Selected sizes for screws. bolts and
nuts (second revistom

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is compiled with, the final
value, observed or calculated expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance
with IS?: 1960 'Rules tor rounding off numerical values (revised)'. The number of siqnitrcant places retained
in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

Review of Indian Standards

Amendments are issued to standards as the need arises on the basis of comments. Standards are
also reviewed periodically; a standard alongwi th amendments is reaffirmed when such review indicates
that no changes are needed; if the review indicates that changes are needed, it is taken up for revision.
Users of Indian Standards should ascertain that they are in possession of the latest amendments or
edition by referring to the latest issue of 'BIS Catalogue' and 'Standards: Monthly Additions '.

This Indian Standard has been developed.from Doc No.: TED 17 (654).
