Marine Cargo Construction Codes

Marine cargo construction codes supported by Touchstone.

AIR provides the following codes for marine cargo construction:

Note:

While Coverage C (content) is not supported for most of the 200-series construction class codes, it is supported for Inland Transit (construction code 259) and for some other construction codes, such as tanks and pipelines. For the full list of supported combinations, refer to the Const. & Occ. Combin. tab in each model supplement. For information about individual model support for the 2000-series codes, see Construction Class Codes -- 2000-Series.


Construction Code	Category	Description
270	Carpool	Open areas close to harbors where thousands of cars are gridded before being shipped on Personal Car Carriers (PCCs). If you know that a particular exposure is combustible or noncombustible, you should use the combustible or noncombustible versions of these codes instead. See construction codes 280-285 and 290-295 in this topic.
271	General and Containerized Cargo	Cubicles 8 feet in width, 8.5 feet in height, and 20 or 40 feet in length in which commodities are packed. Cubicles are usually stacked on ships, trains, or airplanes for long-distance transportation. If you know that a particular exposure is combustible or noncombustible, you should use the combustible or noncombustible versions of these codes instead. See construction codes 280-285 and 290-295 in this topic.
272	Heavy Cargo	Heavy cargoes are usually heavy machinery that cannot fit into a standard container, such as jack-up and semi-submersible rigs, dredging equipment, luxury yachts, offshore production modules and sub-sea structures, construction machinery, container cranes and harbor equipment, and complete factories. Vessels used for this type of cargo are usually semi-submersible heavy lift ships, conventional heavy lift ships, tow barges and dock ships. Heavy cargo is sometimes containerized. If you know that a particular exposure is combustible or noncombustible, you should use the combustible or noncombustible versions of these codes instead. See construction codes 280-285 and 290-295 in this topic.
273	Refrigerated Cargo	Refrigerated cargo is similar to general containerized cargo, but with additional cooling equipment to keep commodities fresh. Commodities are commonly fruits and frozen goods. This type of containerized cargo requires an external source of power to maintain a temperature-controlled environment. If you know that a particular exposure is combustible or noncombustible, you should use the combustible or noncombustible versions of these codes instead. See construction codes 280-285 and 290-295 in this topic.
274	Dry Bulk Cargo	Bare solid materials, such as coal, metal ore, lumber, and grains. If you know that a particular exposure is combustible or noncombustible, you should use the combustible or noncombustible versions of these codes instead. See construction codes 280-285 and 290-295 in this topic..
275	Liquid Bulk Cargo	Bare liquid material, such as oil, liquefied natural gas, and liquid chemicals. Liquid bulk cargo is generally stored in tank farms on shore. If you know that a particular exposure is combustible or noncombustible, you should use the combustible or noncombustible versions of these codes instead. See construction codes 280-285 and 290-295 in this topic..
276	General/Unknown	Supported for both the AIR Earthquake Model for Japan and the AIR Typhoon Model for Japan, and for some locations in Europe, including Central Europe. It is also supported in the AIR Earthquake Model for New Zealand and theAIR Hurricane Model for the United States.
280	Combustible: Carpool	Open areas close to harbors where thousands of cars are gridded before being shipped on Personal Car Carriers (PCCs).
281	Combustible: General and Containerized Cargo	Cubicles 8 feet in width, 8.5 feet in height, and 20 or 40 feet in length in which commodities are packed. Cubicles are usually stacked on ships, trains, or airplanes for long-distance transportation.
282	Combustible: Heavy Cargo	Heavy cargoes are usually heavy machinery that cannot fit into a standard container, such as jack-up and semi-submersible rigs, dredging equipment, luxury yachts, offshore production modules and sub-sea structures, construction machinery, container cranes and harbor equipment, and complete factories. Vessels used for this type of cargo are usually semi-submersible heavy lift ships, conventional heavy lift ships, tow barges, and dock ships. Heavy cargo is sometimes containerized.
283	Combustible: Refrigerated Cargo	Refrigerated cargo is similar to general containerized cargo, but with additional cooling equipment to keep commodities fresh. Commodities are commonly fruits and frozen goods. This type of containerized cargo requires an external source of power to maintain a temperature-controlled environment.
284	Combustible: Dry Bulk Cargo	Bare solid materials, such as coal, metal ore, lumber, and grains.
285	Combustible: Liquid Bulk Cargo	Bare liquid material, such as oil, liquefied natural gas, and liquid chemicals. Liquid bulk cargo is generally stored in tank farms on shore.
286	Unknown Marine Cargo, Combustible	Supported for the AIR Earthquake Model for Japan.
290	Non-Combustible: Carpool	Open areas close to harbors where thousands of cars are gridded before being shipped on Personal Car Carriers (PCCs).
291	Non-Combustible: General and Containerized Cargo	Cubicles 8 feet in width, 8.5 feet in height, and 20 or 40 feet in length in which commodities are packed. Cubicles are usually stacked on ships, trains, or airplanes for long-distance transportation.
292	Non-Combustible: Heavy Cargo	Heavy cargoes are usually heavy machinery that cannot fit into a standard container, such as jack-up and semi-submersible rigs, dredging equipment, luxury yachts, offshore production modules and sub-sea structures, construction machinery, container cranes and harbor equipment, and complete factories. Vessels used for this type of cargo are usually semi-submersible heavy lift ships, conventional heavy lift ships, tow barges, and dock ships. Heavy cargo is sometimes containerized.
293	Non-Combustible: Refrigerated Cargo	Refrigerated cargo is similar to general containerized cargo, but with additional cooling equipment to keep commodities fresh.
