plan review of active fire-fighting systems onboard ABS-classed vessels. Passive fire protection arrangements, such as structural fire protection, as well as fire detection systems, are outside the scope of this document.
This Guide replaces the existing Guide for Fire-Fighting Systems for On-Deck Cargo Areas of Container Carriers. This Guide is for the use of designers, builders, owners and operators in the marine industry and specifies the ABS requirements and criteria for obtaining the following optional notations:
This paper, after a review of traditional preventing and mitigating solutions against fire and an analysis of container ships fires, proposes applicable innovative technologies and operational measures, emerging problems for their potential implementation and requirements for virtual and real tests design.

The firefighting systems and arrangements identified for the FOC notation provide an enhanced set of firefighting capabilities when combating a container fire. However, there is also a concern by some that prolonged exposure to excessive heat of a fire could weaken the hatch covers leading to their possible failure.
the crew on-board container ships is left with limited possibilities of detecting and fighting fires, and that there is a need for the improvement of firefighting systems. Also as the throughput of containers in port terminals has increased, the feasibility of physically investigating the content of each container is not possible any longer. Thus,
