Ships and marine technology — Aluminium shore gangways for seagoing vessels
ISO 7061:2015 specifies requirements for aluminium shore gangways. ISO 7061:2015 applies to gangways designed to be carried on board ships, to provide a lightweight, convenient and safe means of access from ship to shore, for use primarily by the ship's crew. These gangways may also be used for access from ship to ship when conditions are favourable. ISO 7061:2015 applies to gangways suitable for use horizontally or inclined up to an angle of 30° from the horizontal. For angles of inclination less than 55°, special consideration of the design of steps and decking may be necessary. The gangways to which this International Standard applies are not intended to carry wheeled traffic such as loaded trolleys. Users of this International Standard, while observing its requirements, should, at the same time, ensure compliance with any statutory requirements, rules and regulations, applicable to the individual ship concerned.

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

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 7061:2015(E)
Ships and marine technology — Aluminium shore
gangways for seagoing vessels
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for aluminium shore gangways.
This International Standard applies to gangways designed to be carried on board ships, to provide a
lightweight, convenient and safe means of access from ship to shore, for use primarily by the ship’s
crew. These gangways may also be used for access from ship to ship when conditions are favourable.
This International Standard applies to gangways suitable for use horizontally or inclined up to an angle
of 30° from the horizontal. For angles of inclination less than 55°, special consideration of the design of
steps and decking may be necessary.
The gangways to which this International Standard applies are not intended to carry wheeled traffic
such as loaded trolleys.
Users of this International Standard, while observing its requirements, should, at the same time,
ensure compliance with any statutory requirements, rules and regulations, applicable to the
individual ship concerned.

ISO 7061:2015(E)
3 Types
Gangway can be designed into two types: decking plate gangway and anti-slip steps gangway. The
gangway body can be designed as one section, which can also be designed as two sections as required.
3.1 Type A decking gangway
The surface of type A gangway is provided with the decking plate and anti-slip steps, with the maximum
inclination degree of 30° (see Figure 1).
3.2 Type B anti-slip arc steps gangway
This surface is designed directly as anti-slip arc step to position side stringers and support loading,
the lower side of which is equipped with a guard board, with the maximum inclination degree of 55°,
defined as type B gangway.
4 Definitions
For the purposes of this International Standard, the following definitions apply.
4.1 gangway
Bridge structure to allow safe embarkation and disembarkation from ship to shore or access to
another ship.
4.2 side stringer
Longitudinal-strength member of the gangway to which the cross-members, stanchions, roller or
wheels and the lifting lugs, etc. are attached.
4.3 cross-member
Part that holds the side stringer in position, and provides support for the decking.
4.4 decking
Flat-topped corrugated section or plate serving as the gangway floor.
4.5 step
Batten or small section fitted proud of the decking, or anti-slip arc material fixed directly at both
sides of stringers for load bearing to give better foot grip when the gangway is inclined from the
horizontal position.
4.6 guard rail
Hand and intermediate guide, supported by stanchions, to prevent people falling from the gangway.
4.7 anti-slip securing parts
Hooked to the hook plate, eye pad or angle section at the upper end of side stringer, so as to facilitate the
gangway’s firm connection
