ABS - American Bureau of Shipping Collection

Description:
American Bureau of Shipping Collection contains more than 560 documents.

ABS develops "Rules" for building and classing which cover a range of vessels from offshore mobile drilling units to concrete vessels and sophisticated research and mining ships. ABS establishes "Rules" for classification, which are concerned with the periodic survey of these vessels, assuring fitness for their intended service. The information in ABS publications reflects current technology as established and updated by the Bureau's Technical Committees.
