ANSI/ASA S2.25:2004 (R2014)

This standard contains guidelines for limiting the hull and superstructure vibration of ships for the purposes of habitability and mechanical suitability. The mechanical suitability guidelines result in a suitable environment for installed equipment and preclude many major vibration problems, such as unbalance, misalignment, and other damage to the propulsion system. To obtain data to compare with the guidelines, this standard also specifies data acquisition and processing procedures.
