General rules for designing the production facilities in accordance with safety and health requirements

1 Scope

GB 5083-2023 is the Chinese national standard on general rules for designing the production facilities in accordance with safety and health requirements, in the field of environment and health protection, safety. It carries no /T suffix, which in the Chinese system means compliance is mandatory: a product or a practice within its scope has to meet it to be lawfully made, sold or carried out in China. It was issued on 28 December 2023 by the State Administration for Market Regulation; Standardization Administration of China, and has been in force since 1 January 2025. Classification: ICS 13.110, CCS C68. This page is published from the official record of the standard held by the Chinese standards administration: the identification, the dates, the classification and the issuing body are taken from there. The clause text, the tables and the numeric limits are in the document itself, which is delivered complete in English translation.

This document specifies the overall requirements, general requirements and special requirements for the safety and health design of various types of production facilities. This document applies to all types of production facilities except air and water vehicles, water facilities, electrical equipment and nuclear power equipment.
