Small craft - Hull construction and scantlings - Part 5: Design pressures for monohulls, design stresses, scantlings determination (ISO 12215-5:2008)

This part of ISO 12215 applies to the determination of design pressures and stresses, and to the determination of the scantlings, including internal structural members of monohull small craft constructed from fibre-reinforced plastics, aluminium or steel alloys, glued wood or other suitable boat building material, with a length of hull, LH, in accordance with ISO 8666, between 2,5 m and 24 m. It only applies to boats in the intact condition. It only applies to craft with a maximum speed u 50 knots in mLDC conditions. The assessment shall generally include all parts of the craft that are assumed watertight or weathertight when assessing stability, freeboard and buoyancy in accordance with ISO 12217 and are essential to the safety of the craft and of persons on board.

Kleine Wasserfahrzeuge - Rumpfbauweise und Dimensionierung - Teil 5: Entwurfsdrücke, Entwurfsspannungen und Ermittlung der Dimensionierung (ISO 12215-5:2008)

Dieser Teil von ISO 12215 betrifft die Bestimmung von Belastungen, Drücken, Spannungen und Bestimmung der Dimensionierung für den Entwurf, einschließlich interner tragender Bauteile von kleinen Einrumpf-Wasserfahrzeugen, die aus glasfaserverstärkten Kunststoffen, Aluminium- oder Stahllegierungen, Holz oder anderen geeigneten Bootsbauwerkstoffen gebaut sind, mit einer Rumpflänge (LH ) bis 24 m nach ISO 8666. Dies betrifft nur intakte Boote.
Im Allgemeinen muss die Beurteilung alle Teile des Wasserfahrzeuges einschließen, bei denen vorausgesetzt wird, dass sie wasserdicht oder wetterfest sind. Dies trifft bei der Beurteilung von Stabilität, Freibord und Auftrieb nach ISO 12217 zu, sowie bei der Beurteilung sämtlicher tragenden Teile, wie auch jeglicher hoch belas-teten Flächen wie Befestigungsbereiche von Ballastkielen, Kielschwertern, Rudern, Püttingen, usw.
Für die vollständige Dimensionierung des Wasserfahrzeugs muss dieser Teil von ISO 12215 in Verbindung mit Teil 6 für Details angewendet werden. Teil 8 für Ruder und Teil 9 für Anhänge und Takelagezubehör müssen ebenfalls angewendet werden.
ANMERKUNG 1   Dimensionierungen, die sich aus dieser Internationalen Norm ableiten, sind in erster Linie für Sportboote einschließlich Charterboote gedacht.
ANMERKUNG 2   Diese Internationale Norm basiert auf der Annahme, dass die Dimensionierung ausschließlich von den lokalen Lasten abhängt.

ISO 12215-5:2008(E)
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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
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.
ISO 12215-5 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft.
ISO 12215 consists of the following parts, under the general title Small craft — Hull construction and
scantlings:
⎯ Part 1: Materials: Thermosetting resins, glass fibre reinforcement, reference laminate
⎯ Part 2: Materials: Core materials for sandwich construction, embedded materials
⎯ Part 3: Materials: Steel, aluminium alloys, wood, other materials

ISO 12215-5:2008(E)
Introduction
The reason underlying the preparation of this part of ISO 12215 is that standards and recommended practices
for loads on the hull and the dimensioning of small craft differ considerably from one to another, thus limiting
the general worldwide acceptability of boat scantlings. This part of ISO 12215 has been set towards the lower
boundary of the range of current practice.
The objective of this part of ISO 12215 is to achieve an overall structural strength that ensures the watertight
and weathertight integrity of the craft. It is intended to be a tool to assess the scantlings of a craft against
lower bound practice and it is not intended to be a structural design procedure
The scantling requirements are based principally on providing adequate local strength. Serviceability issues
such as deflection under normal operating loads, global strength and its connected shell and deck stability are
not addressed. The criteria contained within may need to be supplemented by additional considerations
deemed necessary by the designer of the structure.
The mechanical property data supplied as default values make no explicit allowance for deterioration in
service nor provide any guarantee that these values can be obtained for any particular craft. The responsibility
for the decision to use this part of ISO 12215 as part of the design procedure rests solely with the designer
and/or manufacturer.
The design pressures given in this part of ISO 12215 are only used with the given equations.
Considering future development in technology and boat types and small craft currently outside the scope of
this part of ISO 12215, provided methods supported by appropriate technology exist, consideration may be
given to their use provided equivalent support for this part of ISO 12215 is achieved.
The dimensioning according to this part of ISO 12215 is regarded as reflecting current practice, provided the
craft is correctly handled in the sense of good seamanship and operated at a speed appropriate to the
prevailing sea state.
Important notice:
1) ISO/TC 188/WG 18 believes that this part of ISO 12215 is the best that can be achieved at the time of
publication. It has therefore decided to publish this document as an ISO Standard. It is anticipated that
wider usage may reveal a number of issues that require modification. It is for this reason that WG 18
has asked for a revision of the document at the same time as its publication. This revision agreement
will enable the group to amend this part of ISO 12215 quickly should this prove necessary.
2) In furtherance of this, this part of ISO 12215 needs to be applied with a critical mind, and users are
invited to report to the TC secretariat, or national standardization body, any items that are considered to
require correction, together with supporting evidence, be that theoretical or based on satisfactory, long-
term service experience with actual boats operating in the appropriate design category sea states.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 12215-5:2008(E)

Small craft — Hull construction and scantlings —
Part 5:
Design pressures for monohulls, design stresses, scantlings
determination
1 Scope
This part of ISO 12215 applies to the determination of design pressures and stresses, and to the
determination of the scantlings, including internal structural members of monohull small craft constructed from
fibre-reinforced plastics, aluminium or steel alloys, glued wood or other suitable boat building material, with a
length of hull, L , in accordance with ISO 8666, between 2,5 m and 24 m. It only applies to boats in the intact
H
condition.
It only applies to craft with a maximum speed u 50 knots in m conditions.
LDC
The assessment shall generally include all parts of the craft that are assumed watertight or weathertight when
assessing stability, freeboard and buoyancy in accordance with ISO 12217 and are essential to the safety of
the craft and of persons on board.
For the complete scantlings of the craft, this part of ISO 12215 is used in conjunction with Part 6, for details,
Part 7 for multihulls, Part 8 for rudders and Part 9 for appendages and rig attachment.
The scantling determination of windows, portlights, deadlights, hatches and doors, is in accordance with
ISO 12216. The structure supporting these elements is in accordance with this part of ISO 12215.
NOTE 1 Scantlings derived from this part of ISO 12215 are primarily intended to apply to recreational craft including
recreational charter vessels and may not be suitable for performance racing craft.
NOTE 2 This part of ISO 12215 is based on the assumption that scantlings are governed solely by local loads.
NOTE 3 The scantling requirements of this part of ISO 12215 are considered to correspond to the minimum strength
requirements of motor and sailing craft which are operated in a safe and responsible manner, having due cognisance of
the prevailing conditions.
Pressures and stresses are normally expressed in pascals, kilopascals or megapascals. For the purposes of a
better understanding for the users of this part of ISO 12215, the pressures are expressed in kilonewtons per
2
square metre (1kN/m = 1kPa) and stresses or elastic moduli are expressed in newtons per square millimetre
2
(1 N/mm = 1 MPa).
