1. Alteration for tank use of cargo hold as deep tank(water or oil)

When tank use is to be altered from cargo hold as deep tank to cargo hold, application of the al- teration, in written form, is to be submitted by the Owners to the Society. Suction mouths in cargo holds as deep tanks are to be removed, and the end parts of the pipings are to be closed by blind flanges. Upon completion of alteration works and thereafter, tank testings for the altered cargo holds are dispensed with.

2. Alteration for tank use of each tank

When an alteration of tank use is desired, the Owners should notify the Society that the alteration will be made. The Society will review the recalculation of longitudinal strength and whether or not reinforcements will be necessary. However, this requirement does not apply to a ship treated ac- cording to Pt 3, Ch 3, 101. of the Rules.

3. Alteration for loading condition

When it is planned that a specialized ship is about to be loaded in an outstandingly different man- ner(other than that reviewed by the Society at the time of plan approval), the plans showing the calculation of longitudinal strength, shear strength and local strength should be approved by the Society.
