ISO terminology Why? To be precise To avoid ambiguity To be translatable into different languages Can: Describes something no under the control of the standard e.g. the wind can come from any direction Shall: A requirement of following the standard e.g. the requirements for the ultimate limit state shall be explicitly considered Should: A recommendation May: The standard is giving permission for a specific action e.g. Axial Froude-Krylov actions may be neglected Will: Signifies intent, future event or likelihood Ptil / David Galbraith 1/12
Loads versus actions ISO requirement to use action rather than load Loads are externally applied Actions include loads and also other effects that cause internal forces Thermal effects Settlements etc Ptil / David Galbraith 1/13

Implementation plans Oil Majors rewriting technical requirements to require use of ISO standards Will take some time to be widely used US contractors still unsure about limit state design De-facto standards being revised API incorporating the ISO text Norsok withdrawing text covered by the ISOs Class rules still have a place under ISO Being adopted as Eurocodes E.g. BS EN ISO 19900 HSE Called up in ON27 + GASCET (HSE s guidance on assessment of safety case topics) will not require the use of ISO standards, though their use will represent evidence of good practice agreed by industry experts. As a result, HSE will give their use in design by the Dutyholder and their contractors considerable weight ISOs effectively have status of ACOP Ptil / David Galbraith 1/30

What needs to be done now? Software vendors Update to comply with ISO 19902 Some have started this activity Operators Specify use of ISO 19900 series in enquiries and orders Update their internal rules and standards Underway in some cases Designers and consultants Become familiar with ISO 19900 series Start using them ISO committees Compile experience and update if necessary Address action factors for different geographical areas and different exposure categories Ptil / David Galbraith 1/33
