BIMCO provides advice on how the angle of repose information in the International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes ( IMSBC ) Code is to be used correctly and why it is critical for safe transport of solid bulk cargoes.
We get questions on the angle of repose for the loading of dry solid bulk cargoes, which has implications under the International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes (IMSBC) Code which can be complex to understand. This article explains the use of the angle of repose, when it is needed and why it is important for the safety of the ship, crew and cargo.
On 21 October 2015, BIMCO held a one-hour long webinar session on the IMSBC Code, highlighting two very relevant issues for members; i.e. on “How to carry bulk cargoes safely – a shared risk?” and “ What is it – identifying cargo hazards under the IMSBC Code”.
We often receive enquiries about UN 3077 cargoes, most recently about whether a tripartite agreement is required for such cargoes under the IMSBC Code.
