Radio aids include Radar beacons (Racons) and AIS beacons, while audible aids involve fog signals that must not interfere with bridge traffic. The standard also details setting rules, such as determining the best point of passage based on clearance height/width and water depth, and specific light ranges for different vessel tonnages. Manufacturers must ensure all dimensions and light characteristics strictly follow the specified tables.

Méthodes d’essai

The standard references visual inspection for dimensions and color patterns of daymarks as per Appendix B. Light characteristic verification involves checking the rhythm, period, and color of the navigation lights.
