3.1.2 Screening approach
3.1.2.1 The depth or extent of application of the methodology should be commensurate with the
nature and significance of the problem. However, before starting the detailed application, a coarse
application is suggested for the relevant ship type or hazard category, in order to include all aspects
of the problem under consideration. Whenever there are uncertainties, e.g. in respect of data or
expert judgment, the significance of these uncertainties should be assessed.
