Sec.8
B 600   Unintended flooding

Sec.8 B
601   Heeling of the unit, during transit condition, after damage flooding as described in DNV-OS-C301 shall be accounted for in the structural strength. Maximum static allowable heel after accidental flooding are specified in Sec.11 to Sec.14 for the different types of units. Structures that are wet when the static equilibrium angle is achieved shall be checked for external water pressure.

Sec.8 B
602   Wave pressure, slamming forces and green sea shall be accounted for in all relevant areas. Local damage may be accepted provided progressive structural collapse and damage of vital equipment is avoided.

Sec.8 B
603   Position of air-intakes and openings to areas with vital equipment which need to be available during an emergency situation e.g. emergency generators, shall be considered taking into account the wave elevation in a 1 year storm.
