Primary Containers Low-temperature: All primary containers low-temperature containers for low-temperature cargoes, the Insulation and the cargo-handling equipment are to be tested under service conditions prior to final action in regard to classification. The primary containers low-temperature containers are to be filled to the normal-capacity level with cargo at the minimum service temperature.
The hull structure in way of primary containers low-temperature containers, the foundations, chocks, keys and sway braces is to be of sufficient strength to support the primary containers low-temperature containers when subjected to the above loadings.
primary containers low-temperature containers which are not self-supporting may be given consideration, provided all details, arrangements and materials of the primary containers low-temperature container, Insulation and the supporting structure are suitable for the service conditions. Preliminary tests are to be made to ascertain that the design arrangements will function satisfactorily in all respects. The tests are to simulate the most severe operating conditions, including minimum service temperature, static and dynamic loads, hull vibration and slamming.
