🔍 Key Concepts

• IMO Fire Control Plan symbols for escape routes, ventilation ducts, and access openings • Difference between continuous arrows and symbols for doors or openings • How search and rescue routes and means of escape are normally shown on SOLAS plans

💭 Think About

• Look closely at all the arrows on the plan: do they all look the same, or are there different styles (color, solid vs dashed, attached to ducting, etc.)? • Compare the solid arrow in the Crew Mess with the symbols used for actual doors nearby – do they share the same symbol or are they clearly different? • Ask yourself: on a fire control plan, which item must be very obvious to crew and passengers so they can get out quickly in an emergency?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify what symbol is used elsewhere on the sheet for doors/watertight doors and see if it matches the arrow in question • Check whether arrows that follow along ducts or trunks look different from arrows that run through corridors and spaces • Confirm, using standard fire control legend if available, which symbol represents the designated escape route for personnel
