The standard is frequently updated to incorporate new technology and lessons learned from operational experience.

: Covers carbon steel, galvanized steel, low alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other corrosion-resistant alloys.

The standard is highly detailed regarding accuracy. Below are the critical aspects it governs:

High wave actions, mechanical friction, intermittent wetting by aerated seawater, and direct UV radiation.
