Code of Design for Vertical Hoisting Shiplift of Shipyard 1 Scope This Code specifies the determination methods of main parameters of the shipyard vertical hoisting shiplift (hereinafter referred to as shiplift), the type of calculated load, safety protection devices, safety coefficients of mechanism and structure design, the design requirements of electrical control and the requirements of shiplift on natural conditions of its construction site and the general layout form of the shiplift. This Code is applicable to the design of shiplift with the lifting load capacity not greater than 15,000t. And for the design of shiplift with the lifting load capacity greater than 15,000t may also be made reference to this Code. 2 Normative References The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Code. For dated reference, subsequent amendments to (excluding corrections to), or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this Code are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document applies.

This data is usually adopted as the grade standard for a shiplift. 4 Shiplift Process Design 4.1 The Position of Shiplift 4.1.1 The coastline at the position where the shiplift is located should be straight and even, and the condition of water area shall meet the operation requirements for ships getting in and out the shiplift harbor basin. 4.1.2 When operating the shiplift, the following meteorological and hydrological conditions shall be met: a) The maximum wind scale is 6;
