International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes Code (IMSBC Code) Edition 2009

ITEM #: PUB-IMO-IMSBC-09

Product Description

The primary aim of the International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes (IMSBC) Code, which replaces the Code of Safe Practice for Solid Bulk Cargoes, 2004 (BC Code 2004), is to facilitate the safe stowage and shipment of solid bulk cargoes by providing information on the dangers associated with the shipment of certain types of solid bulk cargoes and instructions on the procedures to be adopted when the shipment of solid bulk cargoes is contemplated. The IMSBC Code could be applied from 1 January 2009 on a voluntary basis, anticipating its envisaged official entry into force on 1 January 2011, from which date it will be mandatory under the provision of the SOLAS Convention.

This book is the latest 2009 IMSBC Code. We offer the lowest prices on all IMO products, guaranteed.
