(R) GENERAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR MARINE VEHICLES
Foreword—This Document has also changed ply with the the new SAE Technical Standards Board format.
1. Scope
Scope—This Hydrospace Information Report (HIR) identifies the general environmental considerations for the
design, development, evaluation, and testing of advanced surface craft, submersible vehicles, and other
marine craft. This HIR provides criteria on the environmental limits within which marine vehicles, related
components, and associated equipment should operate satisfactorily and reliably.
This HIR is intended for use as a guide for the development of specific environmental requirements to be
included in detailed specifications for marine vehicles and associated equipment. Specific requirement.
Specific requirements are in a state of continual change as our knowledge of the ocean environment
increases. The ocean environment varies with location and time. Changes in the ocean environment can
occur not only on a seasonal basis but also monthly, weekly, daily, and in some cases even hourly.
Classification—Marine vehicles may be classified by operating depth as follows in Table 1:
TABLE 1—CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES BY OPERATING DEPTH
Class Type Vehicle Operating Depth
0 Surface ships, hydrofoil craft, Surface effect ships 0 – 15 m
1 Shallow depth submersible vehicles 0 – 100 m
2 Medium depth submersibles 0 – 2000 m
3 Deep depth submersibles 0 – to over 2000 m
