4.2.2 Number of Structural Tests
.1 A structural test is to be carried out for at least one tank of the same construction (i.e. tanks of the same structural design and configuration and same general workmanship as determined by the attending Surveyor) on each vessel provided all subsequent tanks are tested for leaks by an air test.
However, where structural adequacy of a tank was verified by structural testing required in Table 1, the subsequent vessels in the series (i.e. sister ships built in the same shipyard) may be exempted from such testing for other tanks which have the structural similarity to the tested tank, provided that the water-tightness in all boundaries of exempted tanks are verified by leak tests and thorough inspection. For sister ships built several years after the last ship of the series, such exemption may be reconsidered. In any case, structural testing is to be carried out for at least one tank for each vessel in order to verify structural fabrication adequacy.
.2 For watertight boundaries of spaces other than tanks (excluding chain lockers), structural testing may be exempted, provided that the watertightness in all boundaries of exempted spaces are verified by leak tests and thorough inspection.
.3 These subsequent tanks may require structural testing if found necessary after the structural testing of the first tank.
.4 Tanks for structural test are to be selected so that all representative structural members are tested for the expected tension and compression.
