scope:

This part of ISO 9367 specifies the minimum requirements to allow efficient lashing and securing of road vehicles on boad roll-on/roll-of (Ro/Ro) ships, indicating in particular the lashing arrangements on the vehicle and the securing method to be used. It also gives, in annex A, for information to vehicle designers, the securing point arrangements generally used on Ro/Ro ships as laid down by International maritime Organization (IMO) recommendations. This part of ISO 9367 applies to road vehicle types defined in 3.2 with a maximum authorized total mass of vehicle and cargo, as defined in ISO 1176, of between 3,5 and 40 t. Semi-trailers will be the subject of a future part of ISO 9367. ISO 9367 does not apply to passenger cars, buses, special vehicles (towing vehicles alone) or commercial vehicles which are not intended for transport on Ro/Ro ships but are being freighted for elivery purposes only without pay-load.
