Question
Q7. a) Describe briefly the significance of the factor of subdivision. (6)
b) A ship 120m long has a light displacement of 4000 tonne and LCG in this condition 2.5m aft of midships. (10)
The following items are then added:
Cargo 10000 tonne LCG 3.0 m forward of midships
Fuel 1500 tonne LCG 2.0 m aft of midships
Water 400 tonne LCG 8.0 m aft of midships
Stores 100 tonne LCG 10.0m forward of midships
Using the following hydrostatic data, calculate the final draughts:
Draught (m) | Displacement (t) | MCT 1 cm (t m) | LCB from midships (m) | LCF from midships (m) |
8.50 | 16650 | 183 | 1.94 F | 1.20A |
8.00 | 15350 | 175 | 2.10 F | 0.60F |
