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

The strength grade of materials of fixing fittings shall not be lower than that of the plate to which they

are welded; the low-temperature impact performance shall not be lower than the grade of the plate to

which they are welded.
9 Dimension and strength requirements of fixed fittings

The dimension and strength requirements of fixed fittings are specified in Tables 2 to 9. Dimensions

are in millimetres and strengths in kN. The plate thickness, t, should meet the requirements of the

classification society.

The steel plate thickness shall meet the requirements of ISO 7452. Flame cutting unmarked dimensional

tolerances shall meet the requirements of ISO 9013, class 2. Tolerances for linear and angular

10 Test method of fixed fittings
10.1 General requirement

Fixed fittings shall be tested according to this Clause at the manufacturing site. Type testing shall be

carried out to prove the capability of new designs and subsequent production testing shall be carried

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
ISO/FDIS 23575:2021(E)

out to ensure the quality of the product. When mounted on board the vessel, tests shall be carried out

according to the class requirements, to verify proper installation.
Classification societies may require additional testing procedures.
10.2 Type testing

Test of compliance with strength requirements shall be carried out according to 10.4 to 10.8 with at

least three samples of each product in each direction. All samples must pass the requirements given in

10.6.

Test of compliance with tightness requirements shall be carried out according to Clause 12 with at least

three samples that have been subjected to a test load of at least 1,25 MSL in the direction that produces

the greatest deformation.
10.3 Production testing

For production testing, test of compliance with strength requirements shall be carried out according to

10.4 to 10.8 in the direction that produced the greatest deformation at a test force of at least 1,25 MSL

in the type test.

The minimum test frequency in the production of fixed fittings shall be as given in Table 10.

Table 10 — Sampling rate for fixed fittings
Maximum securing load (MSL)
One sample per lot
Up to 30 Every 500 pieces
Over 30 to 100 Every 250 pieces
Over 100 Every 100 pieces

If the manufacturer operates a third party certified quality system according to ISO 9001, the lot sizes

in the table above may be tripled.

If, during production testing, the sample does not meet the requirements in 10.6, but sustains a load

of not less than 1,8 MSL without critical failure in the form of breakage or visible cracks, two further
