International MaritimeDangerous Goods
2009
The IMDG Code was designed for mariners
and first adopted by
the means of IMO resolution A.81 (IV) in 1965.
The provisions of the Code affect industries,
storage, warehousing, handling and
transport services from
manufacturers to consignees.

Classification of Dangerous Goodsin Packaged FormsPacking & Packaging
Dangerous goods must be identified according
to section 7 of the IMDG code for the necessary
care and precautions of those involved:
- Product name.
- UN number.
- Marine pollutant, if the case,
on documentation accompanying
a consignment of dangerous goods.

Each package should be durably marked :
- Product name.
- UN number.
- Marine pollutant, and If required by the
IMDG Code with the marine pollutant mark.
In case of cargo-transport units,
enlarged labels ( Placards ) should be used
and fixed to each cargo-transport.

Are harmful substances as defined in article 2 of the MARPOL 73/78
and its Annex III.
Marine pollutant : which have an extreme pollution potential are identified as severe maritime pollutants.Incidents involving the good must be reported.

The following segregation terms used are : - Away from... - Separated from... - Separated by a complete compartment or hold from... - Separated longitudinally by an intervening compartment or hold from...
Two substances or articles are considered mutually incompatible
when their storage together may result in undue hazards in cases
of leakage or spillage.

1- Structural damage due to improper
distribution of the cargo.
2- Loss or reduction of stability due to
a shift of cargo or cargo liquefying.
3- Chemical reaction.
Hazards associated with the shipment of
solid bulk material come under the following
main categories :
Solid Bulk Materials : Hazards
Ships in Service Training Material A-M CHAUVEL
- Appendix A
Bulk materials which may liquefy.
- Appendix B
Bulk materials possessing chemical hazards.
- Appendix C
Bulk materials which are neither liable to
liquefy nor to possess chemical hazards.
The Solid Bulk Carrier Code makes the following distinctions :
Carriage of grain is regulated under the International Code for the Safe Carriage of Grain.
Solid Bulk Materials : Hazards
Ships in Service Training Material A-M CHAUVEL
High Density Cargoes
Danger of over-stressing is particularly relevant when the ship is moving at sea.
Require careful distribution within prescribed limits to prevent over-stressing.
In port, careful consideration must be given to the sequence of loading and the quantity of materials loaded at each port as well for the technique used for unloading.
Structure damage, unless discover in time,may result in the loss of the ship.
Solid Bulk Materials : Hazards
Ships in Service Training Material A-M CHAUVEL
Cargoes Liable to Liquefy
Cargoes which may liquefy must be kept in a dry or nearly dry state.
Liquefaction of cargoes results in loss of the ship stability and possible loss of the ship.
Increase of moisture content above the transportable moisture limit may result of liquefaction.
The shipper should provide the information.
Sampling procedures are specified in the BC Code.
Solid Bulk Materials : Hazards
Ships in Service Training Material A-M CHAUVEL
Cargoes Liable to Shift
Trimming instructions are specified for cargoes with an angle of response: - Less than or equal to 30°. - 30° to 35°. - Greater than 35° = Greater care.
The measure of the danger of shifting to which a non-cohesive cargo is subject is given in its angle of response.
BC Code makes a distinction between cohesive and non-cohesive cargoes.

Class 4.1 - Flammable solids.
Class 4.2 - Substances liable to spontaneous combustion.

Stowage and segregation requirements apply
similarly to packaged dangerous goods
between:
- Bulk materials and bulk materials.
- Bulk materials and packaged form.

Solid Bulk Materials posing Chemical Hazards
Solid Bulk Materials : Hazards
Dust is inherent to cargo operations with many bulk materials.
Dust should be reduced to the minimum.
Precautions are necessary to minimize the risks due to exposure to the residual dust of certain materials carrier in bulk.
High standard of personal is required with use of protective clothing and barrier creams particularly in case of toxic materials.

Solid Bulk Materials posing Dust Hazards
Solid Bulk Materials : Hazards
Dust created by certain cargoes may constitute
an explosion hazard especially during :
- Cargo operations.
- Cleaning holds.
The risk can be minimized by :
- Ventilating spaces with dust-laden atmospheres.
- Hosing down rather than seeping.
Sampling and laboratory test procedures are
specified in the BC Code.

To assess the dangers for those on board, a shipmaster must be provide with the information essential to load and unload the ship safely.
The shipper should provide the shipmaster with appropriate certificates of test with details as : - chemical hazards. - flow moisture point. - stowage factor. - moisture content. - angle of response, etc…
