ISO 06185-1:2001 pdf download.lnflatable boats —Part 1: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 4,5 kW.
All plywood used shall incorporate hardwoods for both internal and external veneers and the bonding adhesive shall be waterproof and boil-proof. The timber used shall be seasoned and free from sapwood, decay, insect attack, splits and other imperfections likely to adversely affect the performance of the material. The timber shall be generally free from knots but an occasional sound intergrown knot is acceptable.
Other timbers, e.g. Douglas Fir, may be used for the veneers provided that they are treated to give protection against rot, fungal decay and marine borers. Adjoining edges and/or surfaces, including any end-grain, shall be effectively sealed.
4.3.3 Constructional timbers
The timber used in the construction shall be seasoned and free from sapwood, shakes and other defects.
4.4 Metal and synthetic material parts
Materials used shall be of a type, strength and finish suitable for the intended purpose of the components and
compatible with the marine environment.
4.5 Glass-fibre-reinforced plastics
Resins, reinforcements and laminates shall comply with the requirements of ISO 12215-1.
5 Functional components
5.1 Conditioning
All tests shall be performed at a temperature of 20 °C ±3 °C.
5.2 Hull fittings
5.2.1 Requirement
The materials and method of construction used shall be compatible with that of the hull itself. Any load-bearing fitting attached to the boat (see 3.1 and 3.2) shall not, when loaded as described in 5.2.2, result in any impairment in airtightness or water integrity.
5.2.2 Test method
Any cordage used for test purposes shall have a diameter of 8 mm.
Gradually load the fittings in any direction up to breaking point but not exceeding 2 kN. If 2 kN is reached, maintain this load for 1 mm.
5.3 Manual lifting and carrying devices
5.3.1 Requirement
The boat shall be equipped with a means for carrying it. There shall be no failure of the device when tested in accordance with 5.3.2.
5.3.2 Test method
Any cordage used for test purposes shall have a diameter of 8 mm.
Gradually load the device with a force as detailed below for 1 mm in the appropriate directions.
Types I and III: 500 N
Types II and IV: 1 kN
Where lifting or carrying devices also function as safety ropes or grab handles, they shall also conform to the
requirements of 6.7.1.
5.4 Valves
5.4.1 Inflation
The assemblies shall be made of corrosion-resistant materials and shall not be capable of damaging the boat materials.
The type and arrangement of the inflation valves fitted to an inflatable boat shall ensure that
a) the valves will be readily accessible for connection of the inflation device whether the boat is on land or in the water,
b) the valves will not inconvenience the persons in their predetermined seating positions,
c) the valves will not interfere with the operation of the boat,
d) the valves will not interfere with loading and unloading of the boat,
e) the valves cannot be damaged or torn off by lines, lifelines or movable components of the boat construction or by normal movements of the passengers and load,
f) the valves shall be equipped with a cap that can independently seal the valve and that the cap shall be connected to the valve in a secure manner that prevents it from being accidentally lost, and
g) a controlled reduction in buoyancy-chamber pressure and of measuring that pressure is possible.
5.4.2 Deflation
Deflation of the hull shall be by manual operation, either by using the inflation valve or by using a separate device.
Where separate devices are fifed then these shall be made of corrosion-resistant materials and shall not be capable of damaging the boat material. The design and location of such devices shall meet the requirements of 5.4.1 b) to e) inclusive.
The deflation of any one compartment shall not cause a loss of air or gas from any of the remaining compartments.
5.5 Rowlocks and oars
5.5.1 Requirements
The provision of rowlocks and oars is not mandatory. If they are provided as standard or optional equipment, they shall meet the requirements given in 5.5.2 to 5.5.5.
