Particular Average：
A particular average loss is a partial loss of the subject-matter insured, caused by a peril insured against, and which is not a general average loss.
Perils insured against are sinking, grounding, fire, collision and other perils of the seas.
Particular Average Adjusting：
Adjusting is made in accordance with the policy conditions. If the insurance is subject to English law and practice, Adjusting is made in accordance with English law and practice.
If there is no mention in Rules of Practice on a particular case, we compile a statement which we consider is fair to the parties concerned.
Assessment of Cost of Repairs：
The reasonable cost of the repairs the assured is entitled to is the reasonable cost of repairing the vessel so as to make her nearly as possible equal to what she was before the casualty.
Therefore assessment of the cost of the repairs is essential to calculate the reasonable cost of the repairs.
