Decoding SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) by SHM ShipcareSHM Shipcare
105 years ago, on the same day - April 15th, the World witnessed the most disastrous shipping accident of all times - The Titanic. Legendary in every sense, RMS Titanic was designed by the Irish shipbuilder William Pirrie and built in Belfast, and was thought to be the world’s fastest ship. It spanned 883 feet from stern to bow, and its hull was divided into 16 compartments that were presumed to be watertight. Titanic was presumed to be unsinkable. But, no one had thought about the damage, an iceberg could cause. Only 10% of an iceberg is seen above the water while the rest lies below it. While in the final leg of it's journey from England to New York, the luxurious cruise liner failed to change its course and damaged its hull, causing water to flood into all the compartments, eventually leading to the ship breaking in half and a human loss of 1522 passengers. This disaster has served as a lesson for the shipping fraternity which gave birth to SOLAS and International Ice Patrol.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Introduction
Over the past few years, it has been experienced by many
shipping companies, including the Coast Guard and the
International Maritime Organization (IMO) that 60 to 80 percent
worldwide involving looses of life or environment are due to:
“Human Error or Human Factor”
Databank to Safeguard Maritime Operations from Years 1981-
1996: 5,455 accidents
22%
78%
Factor
Techanical factor
Human factor
4. Management
• It has been proven by numerous research and studies that these
human errors, for the most part, can be controlled by
“MANAGEMENT”
• This can be achieve through proper training standardization of
work procedures and practices appropriate staffing levels and
improved communication between crews, officers and the
Management. Casualty investigation have pinpointed poor
management system as having adverse effect on incidents
That’s why ISM CODE is implemented
5. STRUCTURE OF ISM CODE
Part A Implementation
• Objectives
• Responsibilities and policies of shipp
ing company, master
• Designated persons
• Emergency Preparedness
• Documentation
• Company Verification,Review and
Revaluation
• Emergency preparedness
• Part B Certification and Verification
• Certification and periodical verificat
ion
• Interim certification
• Verification
• Forms of certificates
6. The Structure Of The ISM Code
• The purpose of this Code is to provide an international standard for the safe management and operat
ion of ships and for pollution prevention
• The Assembly adopted resolution A.443(XI), by which it invited all Governments to take the
necessary steps to safeguard the shipmaster in the proper discharge of his responsibilities with
regard to maritime safety and the protection of the marine environment.
• The Assembly also adopted resolution A.680(17), by which it further recognized the need for
appropriate organization of management to enable it to respond to the need of those on board ships
to achieve and maintain high standards of safety and environmental protection
• Recognizing that no two shipping companies or ship owners are the same, and that ships operate
under a wide range of different conditions, the Code is based on general principles and objectives.
• The Code is expressed in broad terms so that it can have a wide-spread application. Clearly, different
levels of management, whether shore-based or at sea, will require varying levels of knowledge and
awareness of the items outlined.
• The cornerstone of good safety management is commitment from the top. In matters of safety and
pollution prevention it is the commitment, competence, attitudes and motivation of individuals at all
levels that determines the end result.
7. ISM CODE
International Safety Management (ISM) Code means the International Management
Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention as adopted by the
Assembly, as may be amended by the Organization.
Company means the owner of the ship or any other organization or person such as the
manager, or the bareboat charterer, who has assumed the responsibility for operation of
ship from the ship owner and who, on assuming such responsibility, has agreed to take
over all duties and responsibility imposed by the Code.
Administration means the Government of the State whose flag the ship is entitled to fly.
Safety management system means a structured and documented system enabling
Company personnel to implement effectively the Company safety and environmental
protection policy.
Document of Compliance means a document issued to a Company which complies with
the requirements of this Code.
Safety Management Certificate means a document issued to a ship which signifies that
the Company and its shipboard management operate in accordance with the approved
safety management system.
8. Objectives
-The objectives of the Code are to ensure safety at sea, prevention of human injury or loss of
life, and avoidance of damage to the environment, in particular to the marine environment
and to property.
Safety Management Objectives Of The Company Should-
• provide for safe practices in ship operation and a safe working environment;
• assess all identified risks to its ships, personnel and the environment and establish
appropriate safeguards; and
• continuously improve safety management skills of personnel ashore and aboard ships,
including preparing for emergencies related both to safety and environmental protection
The Safety Management System Should Ensure:
• compliance with mandatory rules and regulations;
• and that applicable codes, guidelines and standards recommended by the Organization,
Administrations, classification societies and maritime industry organizations are taken
into account.
9. APPLICATION-The requirements of this Code may be applied to all ships.
FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR A SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Every Company should develop, implement and maintain a safety management system which includes the following
functional requirements:
• A safety and environmental-protection policy;
• Instructions and procedures to ensure safe operation of ships and protection of the environment in compliance with
relevant international and flag state legislation;
• Defined levels of authority and lines of communication between, and amongst, shore and shipboard personnel;
• SAFETYAND ENVIRONMENTAL-PROTECTION POLICY
• The Company should establish a safety and environmental-protection policy which describes how the objectives will
be achieved.
• The Company should ensure that the policy is implemented and maintained at all levels of the organization, both
ship-based and shore-based.
• COMPANY RESPONSIBILITIES AND AUTHORITY
• If the entity who is responsible for the operation of the ship is other than the owner, the owner must report the full
name and details of such entity to the Administration.
• The Company should define and document the responsibility , authority and interrelation of all personnel who
manage, perform and verify work relating to and affecting safety and pollution prevention.
• The Company is responsible for ensuring that adequate resources and shore-based support are provided to enable
the designated person or persons to carry out their functions.
10. • MASTER’S RESPONSIBILITYAND AUTHORITY
• The Company should clearly define and document the master’s responsibility with regard to
implementing the safety and environmental-protection policy of the Company ;
• motivating the crew in the observation of that policy;
• issuing appropriate orders and instructions in a clear and simple manner;
• SHIPBOARD OPERATIONS
• The Company should establish procedures, plans and instructions , including checklists as appropriate,
for key shipboard operations concerning the safety of the personnel, ship and protection of the
environment. The various tasks should be defined and assigned to qualified personnel.
