Scope

GB/T 37820.1-2024 is the English-translated version of 船舶与海上技术 船舶安全标志、防火控制图标志、安全提示和安全标记的设计、位置和使用 第1部分:设计原则.

GB/T 37820.1-2024 specifies the general design principles for the ship safety signs, fire control plan signs, safety tips and safety markings provided to shipboard personnel, and that single sentence is the whole of clause 1 as the automatic draft prints it.

It is Part 1 of the three-part GB/T 37820 series, in which Part 2 classifies and indexes the standard signs and safety tips for shipboard use and Part 3 gives the principles for using them, including their location, size, graphical symbols and supplementary text.

Clause 2 cites ISO 3864-1, ISO 3864-3:2012, ISO 3864-4 and ISO 7010, each followed by a note naming a GB/T document, and the draft stops at the end of that clause.

The table of contents shows how the rest is built: clause 3 terms and definitions; clause 4 on the types and uses of signs, markings and notices, with general principles, the seven groups of safety signs, escape route instructions (MES), the use and location of first aid facilities and portable safety equipment (EES), the use and location of life-saving systems and equipment (LSS), the use and location of fire equipment (FES), prohibited behaviour (PSS), hazard prompts (WSS) and mandatory reminders and instructions (MSS), and fire control plan signs; clause 5 on the design of shipboard safety signs, covering safety information, meaning, function and icon content, colour and geometry, graphical symbols and their combination, elements, prohibition, boundary and arrow; clause 6 on supplementary and combined signs; clause 7 on combination sign layout; and clauses 8 to 14 on multiple signs, the use of arrows, fire control diagram signs, safety marking, the lighting and brightness of signs and notices, the durability and brightness of the marking, and the logo mark, with a reference list at the end.

The foreword records that the term for the fire control plan sign was added at 3.2 and the corresponding subclause at 4.3, that the terms for simulated signs and safety-related signs were deleted, that the references to the figures of ISO 7010 and of ISO 24409-2 in clause 5 were changed, that the symbols for releasing lifeboats and lifebuoys with ropes and the form of the supplementary mark were changed, that the instructions for use in the fire equipment signs were deleted, and that clause 10 on fire control plan signs was reworked.

A warning printed before clause 1 states that the colours of the electronic version are not meant to be displayed on screen or printed as a physical object, and that ISO 3864-4 is the reference for colorimetric and photometric properties and for colour sequence systems.

The foreword declares the document equivalent to ISO 24409-1:2020 and places it with the National Technical Committee for Standardization of Marine Vessels (SAC/TC12), which proposed and administers it.

It replaces GB/T 37820.1-2019, was issued on 25 April 2024 and has applied since 1 August 2024.
