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).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

4.3.2.2 Conduct
4.3.2.2.1 Initial inspection
During the initial inspection, the comprehensive inspection shall be carried out for technical
requirements of the securing device, such as materials, process and strength, to ensure that they satisfy
the requirements of drawings approved by classification societies.
Visual inspection shall be carried out before use to ensure that there are no defects.
4.3.2.2.2 Annual inspection
The annual inspection is a general inspection of the securing device, to ensure that it is in effective
operational condition.
© ISO 2015 – All rights reserved 7

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
ISO 17905:2015(E)

Visual inspection shall be carried out to ensure that galvanized and paint coated surfaces are free of
corrosion, without any breaks, serious wear, deformation, cracks, or severe rust.
4.3.2.2.3 Intermediate inspection
A securing device, whose lashing effect may be loose under stress during use, shall be examined and, if
necessary, immediately adjusted by tightening or relashing.
Inspection shall be carried out after a container is loaded and secured on-board in a low temperature,
or when the ship enters a hot environment.
Visual inspection of a securing device shall be carried out during daily use, to ensure its good performance.
4.3.2.2.4 Special inspection
Comprehensive inspection shall be carried out for all securing devices to ensure galvanized and
paint surfaces are properly anti-corrosive, without any breakage, serious wear, deformation, cracks
or severe rust.
For updated securing devices, the related certificates shall be obtained.
4.4 Maintenance
Maintenance can be subdivided into maintenance of fixed fittings and maintenance of loose fittings.
Securing devices shall be regularly maintained to ensure they are always in good operating condition.
Maintenance is generally conducted immediately after inspection and every six months thereafter.
In case of permanent deformation and damage, securing devices shall b
