T&R Bulletin 4-14: Guide for Supplementary Ventilation in a Ship's Cargo Hold When Using Internal Combustion Engines (1970)

In November, 1964 Panel 0-31 (Cargo Handling), under the guidance of the Ship Technical Operations Committee of The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) Technical and Research (T&R) Program, undertook the development of a Guide for determining the amount of auxiliary ventilation required for ship's cargo holds in which fork lift trucks powered by internal combustion engines are operating. The coordination of the efforts of the Panel and of the organizations and individuals listed in the Acknowledgments was accomplished by Mr. William Hunley who, as a member of the Panel, prepared the text of this Guide. The results of these efforts are presented in this publication, which is intended to provide ship operators and stevedoring companies with a convenient guide and reference.
