IS/ISO20283 : Part 2 : 2008 : Mechanical Vibration - Measurement of Vibration on Ships Part 2 Measurement of Structural Vibration

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 2) which is identical with ISO 20283-2 : 2008 'Mechanical vibration - Measurement of vibration on ships - Part 2: Measurement of structural vibration' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Mechanical Vibration and Shock Sectional Committee and approval of the Mechanical Engineering Division Council.

This standard supersedes both IS 14728 : 1999 'Code for the measurement and reporting of shipboard vibration data' and IS 14729 : 1999 'Code for the measurement and reporting of local vibration data of ship structures and equipment'. After the publication of this standard IS 14728 : 1999 and IS 14729 : 1999 shall be treated as withdrawn.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminology and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
