Ship’s Geometry
A ship’s hull form helps determine most of its main attributes; its
stability characteristics; its resistance and therefore the power needed
for a given speed; its seaworthiness; its manoeuvrability and its load
carrying capacity.
It is important, therefore, that the hull shape should be defined with
some precision and unambiguously.
The after perpendicular is the perpendicular drawn to the Summer Load
Line - SLL (Design Water Line - DWL) at the after side of the rudder post,
where fitted, or the line passing through the centreline of the rudder
pintles.
The fore perpendicular is the perpendicular drawn to the to the Summer
Load Line - SLL (Design Water Line - DWL) at the intersection of the
6
forward side of the stem with the summer load line.

Ship’s Geometry
The length overall (LOA) is the horizontal distance between the extreme
points at the forward and aft end of the ship, measured parallel to the
SLL or DWL.
The Length on the waterline (LWL) is the length on the waterline between
the intersections of SLL or DWL at the bow and at the after end of the
ship.
The Length between perpendiculars (LBP) is the horizontal distance
measured between the aft perpendicular and the forward perpendicular
of the ship, measured parallel to the SLL or DWL.
The mid-point between the two perpendiculars is called amidships or
midship.
The transverse section of the ship at the midship is called the midship
8
section.
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Ship’s Geometry
The draught of the ship at any point along its length is the vertical
distance from the keel to the waterline. If a moulded draught is quoted it
is measured from the inside of the keel plating.
Freeboard is the difference between the depth at side and the draught,
that is it is the height of the deck above the waterline.
The freeboard is usually greater at the bow and stern than at amidships.
This helps create a drier ship in waves.
Air draught is the vertical distance from the summer waterline to the
highest point in the ship, usually the top of a mast. This dimension is
important for ships that need to go under bridges in navigating rivers or
entering port.

Ship’s Geometry
The ship’s depth varies along the length but is usually quoted at midship. It
is the vertical distance measured between the upper surface of the main
deck at side and the base line of the ship.
At midship, if the depth at the centreline of the ship is greater than at the
side, then the ship is said to have the camber or the round of beam.
Camber is generally provided only to weather decks to drain the water at
side.
Camber can be defined as the curvature given to the main deck in the
transverse direction and is measured as the difference between the depth
of the ship at the centreline and at the side.
The curvature given to the main deck in the longitudinal direction is known
as the Sheer. It is measured as the difference between the depth of the ship
at the midship and/or at the forward perpendicular and/or at 10the aft
perpendicular.

Ship’s Geometry
The bottom of a ship, in the midships region, is usually flat but not
necessarily horizontal.
If the line of bottom is extended out to intersect the moulded breadth
line, the height of this intersection above the keel is called the rise of
floor or deadrise.
Many ships have a flat keel and the extent to which this extends
athwartships is termed the flat of keel or flat of bottom.
In some ships the sides are not vertical at amidships. If the upper deck
beam is less than that at the waterline it is said to have tumble home,
the value being half the difference in beams.
If the upper deck has a greater beam the ship is said to have flare. All
ships have flare at a distance from amidships

Inward curvature given to the side shell above the SLL is known as
tumble home and the outward curvature given to the side shell above
the SLL is known as Flare.

Reserve buoyancy is the volume of the enclosed spaces above the
waterline (SLL). It is a very important factor in which, minimum
freeboards are assigned to a ship to ensure that there is adequate
reserve buoyancy at all times especially when there is a case of
flooding.
Freeboard(F) = Depth(D) – Draft (T)

Ship’s Geometry- Line Plan Drawing
The hull shape is defined by its intersection with three sets of mutually
orthogonal planes famously known as Lines Plan Drawing of the ship.
Lines plan drawing basically consists of three different views created by
the intersection of these planes viz. Body Plan, Profile View and Half
Breadth Plan
The horizontal planes (Longitudinal Horizontal Sections) are known as
waterplanes and the lines of intersection are known as waterlines and
are represented in Half Breadth Plan.
The planes parallel to the middle line plane (Longitudinal vertical
Sections) cut the hull in buttock (or bow and buttock) lines, the middle
line plane itself defining the profile and are represented in Profile view.
The intersections of the athwartships planes define the transverse
18
sections and are represented in Body Plan.

Stations: These are the longitudinal positions on the ship placed at an
equal intervals, wherein, transverse sections are taken, to generate the
Body Plan. Generally, the ship is divided into 10 equal parts
longitudinally, resulting in 11 in number stations, with numbering 0,1,2,3
…8,9,10. The station with number 5 will be placed at the midship.
To capture the abrupt changes in the shape of the hull at the aft and the
forward end, the half stations are inserted.

Ship’s Geometry- Offset Table
Offsets: Offset of any intersection point on any waterline is its
transverse distance from the center line of the ship.
A collection of such offsets in the form of table for different transverse
sections taken at different stations is known as the offset table.
The offset data or Table must be measured and prepared at every
intersection points on each stations and waterlines including deck line,
chines, knuckles and bulwarks (if any).
Offset data also called as half breadth data, because it represents the
half breadth of the ship at every station and waterlines.
It is also a standard practice to indicate the data of height above for
deck, chine, bulwark, and knuckles lines. The height above base of
buttock lines may also be included whenever necessary.

Ship’s Geometry- Bonjean Curves
Bonjean Curve is a curve obtained by joining points at different
waterlines, distance of which from the vertical line represents 40area of
that transverse section till the particular waterline.

Ship’s Geometry- Bonjean Curves
Collection of such curves prepared
for different stations is known as the
Bonjean Curves.
Bonjean curves are a representation
of the area of the transverse sections
at successive waterlines.
These are used in calculating the
volume of displacement and the
center of buoyancy at any waterline,
or angle of trim. They are used in
stability calculations, determining the
capacity of the ship, or in launching
calculations.

Coefficients of Form
Archimedes' principle: It states that the upward buoyant force that is
exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially
submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.
Weight of the body = Weight of the water displaced
Volume of the water displaced = underwater volume of the ship
If Δ = Displacement or weight of the ship in tonnes= weight of the water
displaced by the ship
๐›= Volumetric displacement of the ship = Volume of water displaced,
then
โˆ†= ๐› ∗ ๐†
Here ๐† is the density of water displaced.

Coefficients of Form
Coefficients of form or coefficients of fineness are dimensionless
numbers that describe hull fineness and overall shape characteristics.
The coefficients are ratios of areas or volumes for the actual hull form
compared to prisms or rectangles defined by the ship’s length, breadth,
and draft.
Since length and breadth on the waterline as well as draft vary with
displacement, coefficients of form also vary with displacement.
Length between perpendiculars (LBP) is most often used, although some
designers prefer length on the waterline.
Coefficients of form can be used to simplify area and volume
calculations for stability or strength analyses.
As hull form approaches that of a rectangular barge, the coefficients
45
approach their maximum value of 1.0.

Coefficients of form: These are broadly classified into two categories

Coefficients of Form
Block Coefficient (CB):
The block coefficient indicates whether the form is full or fine and
whether the waterlines will have large angles of inclination to the middle
line plane at the ends.
Values of CB at design displacement may vary between 0.36 for a fine
high-speed vessel to about 0.92 for a slow and full Great Lakes bulk
carrier.
Large values signify large wave-making resistance at speed. A slow
ship can afford a relatively high block coefficient as its resistance is
predominately frictional.
A high value is good for cargo carrying and is often obtained by using a
length of parallel middle body, perhaps 15–20 per cent of the
total
54
length.

Longitudinal Prismatic Coefficient (CP or CPL)
If two ships with equal length and displacement have different prismatic
coefficients, the one with the smaller value of CPL will have the larger
midship sectional area and hence a larger concentration of the volume
of displacement amidships. The ship with the smaller CPL is also
characterized by a protruding bulbous bow, which causes the swelling
in the sectional area curve right at the bow, and its extension forward of
Station 0.

Importance of coefficients of form
The angle at the bow is termed as the angle of entry and influences
resistance. As speed increases a designer will reduce the length of
parallel middle body to give a lower prismatic coefficient, keeping the
same midship area coefficient.
As speed increases still further the midship area coefficient will be
reduced, usually by introducing a rise of floor.
A low value of midship section coefficient indicates a high rise of floor
with rounded bilges.
A large value of vertical prismatic will indicate body sections of U-form;
a low value will indicate V-sections. These features will affect the
seakeeping performance.

Displacements
A ship’s displacement significantly influences its behaviour at sea.
A ship is said to be fully loaded, when it is floating at its minimum
statutory freeboard.
Freeboard is the vertical distance between the SLL or DWL or the load
line corresponding to the particular zone and the deckline.
Deckline is obtained by the intersection of the upper surface of the main
deck and the outer surface of the side shell.
It is a line having length of 300mm and thickness of 25 mm marked
amidships on both sides of the ship, which is a part of Plimsol line
(Load line).
The main deck of a ship is the uppermost continuous weatherproof
deck extending from bow to stern (running for the entire length). 77

Load Line or Plimsol Line
Load line is a special marking positioned amidships which depicts the
draft of the vessel to which the ship can be loaded.
The fundamental purpose of a Load Line is to allot a maximum legal
limit up to which a ship can be loaded by cargo.
By prescribing such limits, the risk of having the vessel sailing with
inadequate freeboard and buoyancy can be limited.
A vessel should be having sufficient freeboard at all times, any
exceptions made will result in insufficient stability and excessive stress
on the ship’s hull.
However, since the buoyancy and immersion of the vessel largely
depend on the type of water and its density, it is not practical to define a
standard freeboard limit for the ship at all times.
113
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Load Line or Plimsol Line
For this reason, the load line convention has put regulations which
divides the world into different geographical zones each having
different prescribed load line.
For example, A vessel sailing in Winter on North Atlantic Ocean will
have a greater freeboard than on a voyage in Tropical Zones and Fresh
waters.
All vessels of 24 meters and more are required to have this Load line
marking at the centre position of the length of summer load water line.
There are two types of Load line markings:– Standard Load Line marking – This is applicable to all types of vessels.
– Timber Load Line Markings – This is applicable to vessels carrying timber cargo

Load Line or Plimsol Line
Load lines are horizontal lines extending forward and aft from a vertical
line placed at a distance of 540mm from the centre of the disc.
They measure 230mm by 25mm.
The upper surfaces of the load lines indicate the maximum depths to
which the ships maybe submerged in different seasons and
circumstances.

S – Summer :- It is the basic freeboard line at the same level as the
Plimsol Line. Other load lines are marked based on this Summer
freeboard line.
T – Tropical :- It is 1/48th of summer draft marked above the Summer
load line.
W – Winter :- It is 1/48th of summer draft marked below the SLL.
WNA – Winter North Atlantic :- It is marked 50mm below the Winter load
line. It applies to voyages in North Atlantic (above 36 degrees of
latitude) during winter months.
F – Fresh Water :- It is the summer fresh water load line. The distance
between S and F is the Fresh Water Allowance (FWA).
TF – Tropical Fresh Water :- It is the fresh water load line in Tropical.
It is

Introduction
As previously stated, the shape of a ship's hull cannot usually be
described by mathematical equations.
In order to calculate fundamental geometric properties of the hull, naval
architects use numerical methods.
This chapter describes two methods, the trapezoidal and Simpson’s
rules. The latter yields better approximations, but imposes a condition
on the input.
The following different properties of a hull form are estimated
– Area of Waterplane, centroid of waterplane: Center of Flotation, LCF & TPC
– Moment of Inertia of the Waterplane about Longitudinal Axis: Transverse MI (IT)
– Moment of Inertia of the Waterplane about Transverse Axis passing through
centroid: Longitudinal MI (IL)

– Underwater volume and its centroid (Center of Buoyancy), KB & LCB

It is the problem with half stations, which are included at the forward
and the aft end. In such cases, needed to divide stations and ordinates
as per the length between stations.
The 1st group will contain 0, ½ and 1 stations, the 2nd group will contain
1,2,3,4&5 stations, the 3rd group will contain 5,5 ½ and 6 stations.
After divisions of stations in the subgroups, need to check how many
stations are included in the groups and then accordingly one can use
particular method to estimate.
Here, in this particular problem, all 3 groups have odd number of
ordinates, hence we can use Simpson’s 1/3rd rule for all of them.
For the group 1 and 3, the Simpson's multiplier will be multiplied with ½
and for the common stations, SMs will be added
51
Levers will be similar to that of stations.

Given Data:
This problem is exactly similar to the previous problem, except there is
only one half station inserted between stations 1 and 2.
h=20m.
Here there will be only two groups: The 1st group will contain 0, ½ and 1

Introduction
The location of a ship's vertical center of gravity (LCG, TCG and VCG) is
an important measurement needed to estimate the initial stability of a
vessel.
Centre of gravity is the point of a body at which all the mass of the body
may be assumed to be concentrated.
The force of gravity acts vertically downwards from this point with a
force equal to the weight of the body.
B - Center of Buoyancy: The geometric center of the ship's underwater
hull body. Centroid of the underwater volume is the CB of the ship.
It is the point at which all the forces of buoyancy may be considered to
act in a vertically upward direction.
The Center of Buoyancy will move as the shape of the underwater
3
portion of the hull body changes.

Heel. A ship is said to be heeled when
she is inclined by an external force. For
example, when the ship is inclined by
the action of the waves or wind.
List. A ship is said to be listed when
she is inclined by forces within the
ship. For example, when the ship is
inclined by shifting a weight
transversely within the ship. This is a
fixed angle of heel.

Angle of List
The angle of list is the degree to which a vessel heels (leans or tilts) to
either port or starboard at equilibrium—with no external forces acting
upon it.
Listing is caused by the off-centerline distribution of weight onboard
due to uneven loading or due to flooding.
By contrast, roll is the dynamic movement from side to side caused by
waves

Angle of List
Let an existing weight on board a ship is shifted to starboard side
transversely as shown in the figure.
This causes a shift in the CG of the ship from G to G1
40
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Angle of List
In this new position, if one considers no shift in the CB of the ship, then
buoyancy force and gravity force acting at CB and CG of the ship
respectively would create a clockwise moment and the ship will not be
in equilibrium.
To achieve the equilibrium condition with zero moment acting on the
ship, slowly CB of the ship will start moving towards starboard side in
such a way that, it will set itself exactly below the CG of the ship.
This is typically a equilibrium condition and the ship will remain in that
state unless any weight is being shifted/removed/added.
This condition/state of the ship is known as the listed condition.
In the listed condition, the new line of action of buoyancy will intersect
the center line of the ship at M, which is known as the Transverse

Introduction
The body is said to be in equilibrium when the summation of forces and
moments acting on it is zero.
Normally two forces act on a floating body, one is gravitational force
and the other one is the buoyancy force.
The gravitational force acts through the center of gravity. Similarly the
buoyancy force also acts through the center of buoyancy.
The position of the center of gravity depends on the distribution and
magnitude of the weights.
But the center of buoyancy depends only on the shape of the immersed
portion of the vessel.
It is the centroid of the under water portion of the floating body.

Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Introduction
The conditions of equilibrium for floating bodies are:
The buoyancy force is equal to the gravitational force.
The center of buoyancy and the center of gravity lie in the same vertical
line.
The common line of action of these forces will be perpendicular to the
new water line.

When a ship is affected by outside forces (Upsetting Forces), it will
alter its state of equilibrium. The forces of wind- and the opposing
force of the water below the waterline- will cause an external

moment couple about the ship’s center of flotation.

couple by pivoting
about F,
causing a

of where the FB is
applied also changes.
Because G does not
move, the location of

Types of Equilibrium
Stable equilibrium
A ship is said to be in stable equilibrium if, when
inclined, she tends to return to the initial position.
For this to occur the centre of gravity must be
below the metacentre, that is, the ship must have
positive metacentric height (M above G & GM>0)
If moments are taken about G there is a moment
to return the ship to the upright (GM>0).
This moment is referred to as the Moment of
Statical Stability or Righting Moment and is equal
to the product of the force 'Δ' and the lever GZ.
Moment of Statical Stability = Δ x GZ (tonnesmetres).

The lever GZ is referred to as the righting lever
and is the perpendicular distance between the
centre of gravity and the vertical through the new
centre of buoyancy.

Types of Equilibrium
Neutral Equilibrium
When G coincides with M i.e. GM=0 as shown in
Figure, the ship is said to be in neutral
equilibrium, and if inclined to a small angle she
will tend to remain at that angle of heel until
another external force is applied.
The ship has zero GM. Note that KG = KM.
Moment of Statical Stability = Δ x GZ, but in this
case GZ = 0;
Moment of Statical Stability = 0.
Therefore there is no moment to bring the ship
back to the upright or to heel her over still further

Unstable Equilibrium
When a ship which is inclined to a small
angle tends to heel over still further,
she is said to be in unstable
equilibrium.
For this to occur the ship must have a
negative GM. G is above M.
The moment of statical stability=Δ*GZ,
is clearly a capsizing moment which will
tend to heel the ship still further.

Stability of Submarine
For the submarine which is fully submerged in water, as shape of the
submerged volume doesn't alter, the position of center buoyancy
remains unaltered and it remains on the center line of the ship.
Hence, it is interesting to know the condition to generate the righting
moment, in turn, the submarine to remain stable.
The condition for the stability of the submarine is G lies below B.

Metacentric Height
The centre of gravity of a body `G' is the point through which the force
of gravity is considered to act vertically downwards with a force equal
to the weight of the body. KG is VCG of the ship.
The centre of buoyancy `B' is the point through which the force of
buoyancy is considered to act vertically upwards with a force equal to
the weight of water displaced. It is the centroid of the underwater
volume. KB is VCB of the ship.
To float at rest in still water, a vessel must displace her own weight of
water, and the centre of gravity must be in the same vertical line as the
centre of buoyancy.
KM = KB + BM Also KM = KG + GM
GM= KB+ BM – KG

Stiff Ship
The Rolling time period of a ship is the time taken by the ship to roll
from one side to the other and back again to the initial position.
When a ship has a comparatively large GM, for example 2 m to 3 m, the
righting moments at small angles of heel will also be comparatively
large.
It will thus require larger moments to incline the ship. When inclined
she will tend to return more quickly to the initial position.
The result is that the ship will have a comparatively short time period,
and will roll quickly – and perhaps violently – from side to side.
A ship in this condition is said to be ‘stiff’, and such a condition is not
desirable.
The time period could be as low as 8 seconds. The effective centre
of
23
gravity of the ship should be raised within that ship.
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Tender Ship
When the GM is comparatively small, for example 0.16 m to 0.20 m the
righting moments at small angles of heel will also be small.
The ship will thus be much easier to incline and will not tend to return
so quickly to the initial position.
The time period will be comparatively long and a ship, for example 25 to
35 seconds, in this condition is said to be ‘tender’.
As before, this condition is not desirable and steps should be taken to
increase the GM by lowering the effective centre of gravity of the ship.
The officer responsible for loading a ship should aim at a happy
medium between these two conditions whereby the ship is neither too
stiff nor too tender.
A time period of 15 to 25 seconds would generally be acceptable
for
24
those on board a ship at sea.

Derivation for BM
The metacentric radius of a ship is the vertical distance between its
center of buoyancy and metacenter.
This parameter can be visualized as the length of the string of a
swinging pendulum of the center of gravity of the pendulum coincides
the center of buoyancy of the ship.
In other words, the ship behaves as a pendulum swinging about its
metacenter.
It is a different fact that, the metacenter of the ship changes itself, every
moment. Because with every angle of heel, the transverse shift in center
of buoyancy will vary, therefore creating a new metacenter.
For small angle of heel, this vertical shift in M is neglected.
The importance of this parameter can be realised when
the
25
mathematical expression of metacentric radius is investigated.

Derivation for BM
Consider a ship as shown in the figure, is initially floating upright at
waterline WL.
Due to the external force or the heeling moment by wind or wave, let the
ship heels by an angle ฯ• and floats at new waterline W1L1.
In this case, a triangular wedge on port side will come out of the water,
known as emerging wedge and a wedge with similar volume on
starboard side immerses into the water, known as immerses wedge.
This is simply a case of shifting of volume from port to the starboard,
causing a shift in the center of buoyancy of the ship.
Consider a small elementary length of the wedge dx along the length of
the ship.
Volume of the elementary wedge (v) = area *length of the wedge 27

Free Surface Effect
When any tank is not fully filled and the ship heels, the liquid in the tank
moves across the tank in the direction of heel, causing CG of the ship to
move away from the centerline reducing the righting lever, GM and in
turn, the stability of the ship reduces. This effect is known as the free
surface effect.
The free surface effect can become a problem in tankers, wherein, cargo
holds are partially full, fuel tanks, or water tanks (especially if they span
the full breadth of the ship), or from accidental flooding.
If a compartment or tank is either empty or full, there is no change in the
craft's center of mass as it rolls from side to side. However, if the
compartment is only partially full (Filled less than 90% or filled more
than 10%), the liquid in the compartment will respond to the vessel's
48
heave, pitch, roll, surge, sway or yaw.

Let there be a tank which contains a liquid of density ρl and iT is the
transverse moment of inertia of the tank about its longitudinal axis.
Due to shift of the liquid in the tank, a horizontal shift in the CG from G
to G1 occurs. Here it is assumed that, for a small angle of heel up to 70,
the vertical shift in the CG of the ship is neglected.
The line of action of gravity force intersects the centerline of the ship at
GV, resulting in a vertical shift in the CG from G to GV.
As it has been observed in the past, FSE causes a vertical shift in the
CG of the ship reducing stability, hence, it was concluded that, this
vertical shift from G to GV is the FSE

Inclining Experiment
Purpose:
To Find KG or GM of a vessel when it is as near to the completion as
possible, that is as near to the light condition as possible. The purpose
of this procedure is to achieve a satisfactory accuracy in the
determination of the lightship weight and of the coordinates of its CG.
Reason:
The above are initial conditions which must be known before the
stability of a ship in any particular condition of loading can be
determined. For example, when dealing with height of CG above the
keel, the initial position of the CG must be known to decide the final
one. Also since the KG is very great comparing to the GM, it must be
accessed very accurately if GM is to be found with reasonable
66
accuracy.

Procedure:
During the experiment, the ship is forcibly inclined by shifting weights
at fixed distance across the deck under controlled condition and finding
the resultant angle of heel.
The weights are usually concrete blocks and inclination is measured by
using long pendulum one forward and one aft of the midship section.
If third pendulum to be used, it is usually placed amidships.
The movement of the pendulum is made across battens which lie
perfectly horizontal when the ship is upright.
The pendulums are fixed at a height of about 10m above the battens at
the centerline of the ship.

Preparations before execution of an Inclining Experiment
The experiment should be carried out in calm water & nice weather. No
wind, no heavy rain, no tides.
It is essential that the ship be free to incline (mooring ropes should be
as slack as possible, but be careful.)
The vessel should be upright prior to the inclining. However, an initial
list of the ship not exceeding 0.5° is permissible.
Prior to the inclining test, lists of all items which are to be added,
removed, or relocated should be prepared. These weights and their
locations should be accurately recorded.
All objects should be secured in their regular positions. All weights
which may swing or shift must be secured in their known position.69

Stability at the Large Angles of Heel
At the large angles of heel (greater than 7 degrees) the centre of
buoyancy will move further out and the low side and the force of
buoyancy can no longer be considered to act vertically upwards though
fixed position of M, the initial metacentre.
M will no longer remain in one position and it is no longer of direct
relevance to the calculation. By definition, M remains the point at which
successive lines of buoyancy intersect as the ship heels.
The ship will, in general, trim as well as heel. This means that the CB
moves fore and aft as well as transversely.
The deck edge and the turn of bilge will become immersed or exposed.
The metacentre moves as per: when B moves up, M moves down; and
when B moves down, M moves up.

In the case of large angles of heel, the vertical shift in the CB of the ship
due to the vertical shift in the centroid of the wedge cannot be
neglected.
This vertical shift in the CB causes vertical shift in the metacenter from
M to M’, causing an increase in the metacentric height from GM to GM’
resulting in an increase in the righting lever from GZ to GZ’.
New Righting Lever = GZ’ = GZ+ ZZ’

Stability at the Large Angles of Heel
Angle of Loll: When a vessel has negative metacentric height (GM) i.e.,
is in unstable equilibrium, any external force applied to the vessel will
cause it to start heeling.
As it heels, the moment of inertia of the vessel's waterplane increases,
which increases the vessel's BM. Since there is relatively little change
in KB of the vessel, the KM of the vessel increases.
At some angle of heel (say 10°), KM will increase sufficiently equal to
KG, thus making GM of vessel equal to zero. When this occurs, the
vessel goes to neutral equilibrium, and the angle of heel at which it
happens is called angle of loll.
In other words, when an unstable vessel heels over towards a
progressively increasing angle of heel, at a certain angle of heel, the
90
centre of buoyancy (B) may fall vertically below the centre of gravity (G).

Angle of Loll
The angle at which a ship with a negative initial metacentric height will
achieve the equilibrium condition is the angle of Loll.
In a seaway, such a ship will oscillate between the angle of loll on the
starboard and the on Port side.
Depending upon external forces such as wind and waves a ship may
suddenly flop over from PS to SB and then back again to PS.
Such abrupt oscillation, different from a continuous roll, is
characteristic for negative metacentric heights.
An angle of loll can be corrected only by lowering the centre of gravity,
not by moving loads transversely. This can be done by moving weight
downwards, adding water ballast in double bottom tanks or removing
93
weight above the ship vertical centre of gravity.

GZ Curve
The easiest and handiest tool for analysing a surface ship’s stability, is
by graphs or curves.
Since the stability of a ship can be directly commented on by the nature
and value of its metacentric height (GM), a direct method to track the
stability of a ship for a range of heel angles would be, to generate a
curve that relates this parameter to the angle of heel.
Since metacentric height is directly related to the righting lever (GZ) and
angle of heel, the curve of statical stability is a plot between the righting
lever and angle of heel.

GZ Curve
MAIN FEATURES OF THE GZ CURVE
Slope at the origin. For small angles of heel, the righting lever is
proportional to the angle of inclination, the metacentre being effectively
a fixed point.
Initial GM: The tangent to the GZ curve at the origin represents the
metacentric height at the angle of heel equal to 1 rad = 57.3 degrees.
Maximum GZ. This is proportional to the largest steady heeling moment
that the ship can sustain without capsizing, and its value and the angle
at which it occurs are both important.
101
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
GZ Curve
MAIN FEATURES OF THE GZ CURVE
Range of stability. At some angle, often greater than 90 degrees, the GZ
value reduces to zero and becomes negative for larger inclinations. This
angle is known as the angle of vanishing stability and the range of angle
for which GZ is positive is known as the range of stability. For angles
less than this, a ship will return to the upright state when the heeling
moment is removed.
Angle of deck edge immersion. For most ship forms, there is a point of
inflexion in the curve corresponding roughly to the angle at which the
deck edge becomes immersed. In general, of course, the angle at which
the deck edge is immersed varies along the length, but is within a fairly
narrow band for the larger sections amidships which exert most
102
influence upon the stability.
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
GZ Curve
MAIN FEATURES OF THE GZ CURVE
Area under the curve. The area under the curve represents the ability of
the ship to absorb energy imparted to it by winds, waves or any other
external agency.
The dynamical stability of a ship at any inclination is defined as the
work done in heeling the vessel to that inclination.
Dynamical stability = Δ* Area under the stability curve
The dynamic stability of a ship is the area enclosed within its static
stability curve. It gives us the magnitude of external heeling energy that
the ship can absorb before capsizing.

Cross Curves of Stability – KN Curves
The vertical position of centre of gravity (G) of the ship is not always
fixed. It changes with every voyage, depending on the loading
conditions and the amount of ballast.
The CG of the ship also changes when the ship is in transit.
This varying nature of CG makes it difficult for the designer to assume
the loading conditions at which GZ curves should be obtained, because
different values of KG would result in different metacentric heights
(GM), and righting lever (GZ), the stability curves for each of the loading
condition would be different.
The cross curves of stability were developed, so that, for any loading
condition (where KG is already known), values of righting lever (GZ) can
be obtained for all angles of heel.

Introduction
Trim may be considered as the longitudinal equivalent of list.
Trim is also known as ‘longitudinal stability’. It is in effect transverse
stability turned through 90°.
Instead of trim being measured in degrees it is measured as the
difference between the drafts forward and aft.
If difference is zero then the ship is said to be on even keel.
Trim =0 , if TA=TF

Consider a ship to be floating at rest in still water and on an even keel
as shown in Figure 1
Now let a weight ‘w’, already on board, be shifted aft through a distance
‘d’, . This causes the centre of gravity of the ship to shift from G to G1,
parallel to the shift of the centre of gravity of the weight shifted, so that:
wxd
GG1 =
Δ
Δ*GG1 = w x d
Trimming Moment =Δ*GG1 = w x d is generated
The ship will now trim until the centres of gravity and buoyancy are
again in the same vertical line as shown in the Figure 2.

Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Trimming Moment, MCTC, IL, BML, GML
When trimmed, the wedge of buoyancy LFL1 emerges and the wedge
WFW1 is immersed.
Since the ship, when trimmed, must displace the same weight of water
as when on an even keel, the volume of the immersed wedge must be
equal to the volume of the emerged wedge and F, the point about which
the ship trims, is the centre of gravity of the water-plane area. The point
F is called the ‘centre of flotation’ or ‘tipping centre’.
A vessel with a rectangular water-plane has its centre of flotation on the
centre line amidships but, on a ship, it may be a little forward or abaft
amidships, depending on the shape of the water-plane. In trim
problems, unless stated otherwise, it is to be assumed that the centre of
flotation is situated amidships.

Trimming Moment, MCTC, IL, BML, GML
Trimming moments are taken about the centre of flotation since this is
the point about which rotation takes place.
The longitudinal metacentre (ML) is the point of intersection between the
verticals through the longitudinal positions of the centres of buoyancy.
The vertical distance between the centre of gravity and the longitudinal
metacentre (GML) is called the longitudinal metacentric height.
BML is the height of the longitudinal metacentre above the CB

Change in trim due to change in density
When a ship passes from sea water into river water, or vice versa
without change in displacement, there is a change in trim in addition to
the change in mean draught. This change in trim is always very smaIl.
Consider a ship of displacement Δ floats in sea water wherein G and B
are in the same vertical line.
If the vessel moves into river water of lesser density there is a bodily
sinkage resulting in increase in draught.
39
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Change in trim due to change in density
The volume of displacement has been increased by a layer of volume v,
whose centroid is assumed to be at the centre of flotation F, resulting in
the total shift as FB.
This causes the centre of buoyancy to move from B to B1 and the centre
of gravity remaining at G.
Let ๐›๐’ & ๐›๐‘ be the volumetric displacements in SW and RW, wherein,
change in underwater volume= v= ๐›๐‘ - ๐›๐’

Determination of trim, due to the
addition of large masses
When a large mass is added to a ship, the resultant increase in draught
is sufficient to cause changes in all the hydrostatic details.
It then becomes necessary to calculate the final draughts from first
principles. Such a problem exists every time a ship loads or discharges
the major part of its deadweight.
The principle is that after loading or discharging, the vessel is in
equilibrium and the final G is in the same vertical line as the final B.
For any given condition of loading, it is possible to calculate the
displacement Δ and the longitudinal position of the centre of gravity G
relative to midships.
From the hydrostatic curves or data, the mean draught may be obtained
at this displacement, and hence the value of MCT1 and the distance
of
47
the LCB and LCF from midship.
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Determination of trim, due to the
addition of large masses
These values are calculated for the level keel condition and it is unlikely
that the LCB will be in the same vertical line as G.
Thus a trimming moment acts on the ship which is the product of the
displacement and the longitudinal distance between B and G, known as
the trimming lever.
The trimming moment, divided by the MCT1 cm gives the change in trim
from the level keel condition.
The vessel changes trim about the LCF and hence it is possible to
calculate the end draughts. When the vessel has changed trim in this
manner, the new centre of buoyancy B1 lies in the same vertical line as
G.

Stability of Ship during Docking
The process of docking and undocking of ships might not seem like an
important operation.
However, it’s a process that is carried out more than once, not only by
shipbuilding yards during the construction of a ship, but also as regular
part of the ship’s lifetime.
The understanding of the process of docking is specialised, and hence,
not many naval architects or engineers are thorough with the inner
details of docking.
From time to time, it becomes important to carry out repairs in the
underwater portion of the hull, such as renewal of the sacrificial anodes,
refit of the propellers, overhauling of the propulsion shafts, repair of
rudders, underwater hull blasting to remove fouling, etc.
52
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Stability of Ship during Docking
In order to carry out these repairs, the underwater portion of the hull
needs to be made accessible, which is the purpose served by a dry
dock.
It has also become a common practice in large shipyards to build their
ships on dry docks, and float it out when ready for trials.
For such procedures, the docking plans need to be prepared taking into
consideration the increase in weight of the ship structure along the
building time.
Once the ship has been built, the dry dock is flooded and the ship is
undocked.
The calculations for undocking also play a major role in the process
because it is during undocking that the ship is at a risk of capsizing.
53
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Stability of Ship during Docking
When the ship enters a dry dock, it must have a positive metacentric
height; and is usually trimmed by stern.
The floor of the dry dock is lined with keel blocks, which are so
arranged such that they can bear the weight of the ship.
The dock gates are then closed and the water is pumped out of the dock
in stages.
Since the ship has a trim by stern, the stern of the ship will first sit on
the keel blocks. The rate of pumping out water is reduced as the stern is
almost about to touch the keel blocks
54
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Stability of Ship during Docking
When the ship’s stern just touches the keel blocks, part of the ship’s
weight is being borne by the keel blocks.
The contact between the stern and the keel block creates a normal
reaction or upthrust. The magnitude of this upward normal reaction
increases as the water level in the dry dock reduces.
55
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Stability of Ship during Docking
It is this upthrust that creates a virtual reduction in the metacentric
height of the ship.
Hence it is very crucial to maintain sufficient positive metacentric height
before docking, lacking which, the ship may heel over to either side, or
even slip off the keel blocks and capsize.
Since the location of the stern is a known point, its distance from the
center of floatation (l) can be calculated instantly
56
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Stability of Ship during Docking
Figure shows the longitudinal section of a ship during the critical
period.
‘P’ is the upthrust at the stern and ‘l’ is the distance of the centre of
flotation from aft. The trimming moment is given by P*l.
But the trimming moment is also equal to MCTC * change of trim (t)
P*l = MCTC * change of trim (t)

Now consider Figure which shows a transverse section of the ship
during the critical period after she has been inclined to a small angle (ฦŸ
degrees) by a force external to the ship.
For the sake of clarity the angle of heel has been magnified. The weight
of the ship (W) acts downwards through the centre of gravity (G).
The force P acts upwards through the keel (K) and is equal to the weight
being borne by the blocks.
For equilibrium the force of buoyancy must now be (W - P) and will act
upwards through the initial metacentre (M).
There are, thus, three parallel forces to consider when calculating the
effect of the force P on the ship’s stability.
Two of these forces may be replaced by their resultant in order 59to find
the effective metacentric height and the moment of statical stability

Damaged Stability
The term damage stability deals with the ability of a ship to float in
water and regain its upright equilibrium position when some sort of
structural damage has occurred.
Generally, following an accident, the damage is hull fracture leading to
flooding of ship compartments.
If so many compartments are flooded that there is not enough buoyancy
available to keep the vessel afloat, the ship may sink.
Another critical scenario due to hull breach is ship capsizing due to
loss of transverse stability as it can happen very quickly.
To assess the behaviour of a ship after some damage two methods are
considered:
– Deterministic damage stability
– Probabilistic damage stability
65
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Damaged Stability
Deterministic Damage Stability
This is a traditional method of assessment of the stability of a ship
when it is flooded. In this process, the ship is divided into several
subdivisions along its length with the help of transverse watertight
bulkheads. Now the stability of the ship is calculated when one or more
compartments get flooded due to a breach of hull.
The changes in draft and stability when a compartment becomes
flooded due to damage can be investigated by either of two methods:
• Lost Buoyancy method
• Added weight method
66
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Damaged Stability
Deterministic Damage Stability: Lost Buoyancy method
The damaged compartment(s) is considered open to the sea and
therefore, does not contribute to the buoyancy of the ship.
So, the lost buoyancy must be compensated by sinkage of the vessel
and the moment due to change in LCB of the vessel is manifested
through the heel or trim of the vessel.
The assumptions considered in this method are that the flooded
compartment does not provide buoyancy anymore and hence, there is
no change in displacement or KG of the vessel and no free surface
effect is observed.
67
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Damaged Stability
Deterministic Damage Stability: Added Weight method
This method considers that water ingresses in the damaged
compartments up to the new water level and the weight of the ingressed
water augments the displacement of the vessel that is compensated by
the sinkage of the vessel.
Consequently, the KG of the vessel changes due to the weight of
ingressed water and Free Surface Effects has to be taken into account,
if the compartment is partially filled with water.
The weight added shifts the CG of the vessel that might lead to list or
trim of the vessel.
Both methods will give identical answers for final draughts, trim and
RM, despite different values for GM. However, IMO/SOLAS recommends
68
the use of Lost buoyancy method for all calculations

Bilging amidships compartments
When a vessel floats in still water it
displaces its own weight of water.
Figure shows a box-shaped vessel
floating at the waterline, WL.
Now let an empty compartment
amidships be holed below the waterline
to such an extent that the water may flow
freely into and out of the compartment.
A vessel holed in this way is said to be
‘bilged’.

Bilging amidships compartments
Figure shows the vessel in the bilged condition. The buoyancy provided
by the bilged compartment is lost. The draft has increased and the
vessel now floats at the waterline W1L1, where it is again displacing its
own weight of water. ‘X’ represents the increase in draft due to bilging.

Permeability (µ):
Permeability is the amount of water that can enter a compartment or
tank after it has been bilged. When an empty compartment is bilged, the
whole of the buoyancy provided by that compartment is lost.
Typical values for permeability, are as follows:
–
–
–
–
–
Empty compartment - 100%
Engine room - 80% to 85%
Grain-filled cargo hold - 60% to 65%
Coal-filled compartment - 36% approximately
Filled water ballast tank (when ship is in salt water) - 0%
Consequently, the higher the value of the permeability for a bilged
compartment, the greater will be a ship’s loss of buoyancy when the
76
ship is bilged.
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Lost Buoyancy Method
Permeability (µ):
When a bilged compartment contains cargo, the formula for finding the
increase in draft must be amended to allow for the permeability.
If ‘µ’ represents the permeability, expressed as a fraction, then the
volume of lost buoyancy will be ‘µ*v’ and the area of the intact waterplane will be ‘A - µ*a’ square metres. The formula then reads.

When the bilged compartment is situated in a position away from
amidships, the vessel’s mean draft will increase to make good the lost
buoyancy but the trim will also change.
There will be a horizontal component of the shift of the centre of
buoyancy (B1B2) equal to half the length of the compartment flooded.
A trimming moment of W * B1B2 by the head is produced and the vessel
will trim about the centre of flotation (F).

required by SOLAS Chapter II-1, part B. This is required for cargo ships
80 m in length and upwards and to all passenger ships regardless of
length.
This approach is based on probability of survival after certain
compartment or group of compartments are damaged.
Attained index is a measure of ship's safety after damage or Collision.
Two ship's with same index are assumed to have same level of safety
for damage or collision, irrespective of location of damage.
Probability of survival is calculated as sum of probability of damage of a
space or group spaces multiplied by probabilities of survival98 after
corresponding space damage.

Probabilistic Damage Stability
This approach uses the concept of probability to ensure that ships can
survive damage to its compartment(s). There are two probability factors
that are used in this approach.
Probability that a particular compartment(s) will damage in an incident
(factor “p”)
the probability that ship will survive if that compartment(s) is flooded
(Factor “s”)
Used as the requirement for the cargo ships and passenger ships.
Multiplying these two factors (p x s) will give the probability of surviving
that damage case.

Probabilistic Damage Stability
The value of S in all these will either be 0 or 1. This is because when we
have considered a damage, the ship will either survive (probability 1) or
not survive (probability 0).
So if this ship is three compartment ship, there is no need to consider
the probability of survival for four and more compartments because it
will be zero.
But there is still one thing to consider. At what drafts we need to
consider all these damages?
SOLAS requires that these should be considered at three drafts.

Finally the bottom line. How would a ship comply with the damage
stability requirements?
As per SOLAS Chapter II-1, part B-1, Regulation 6, the ship complies
with damage stability when
Attained Subdivision Index > Required subdivision index
As per SOLAS, attained subdivision index is calculated by the formula.

Probabilistic Damage Stability: Required subdivision index
SOLAS chapter II-1, Reg 7 gives the formula to calculate the required
subdivision index for a ship. These formulas are different for different
type and size of the ship.
This would be the minimum required value of subdivision index.
If the actual value of subdivision index (Attained value) is less than the
required, the subdivisions need to be re-arranged or increased to have
attained subdivision index to be more than required subdivision index.

Floodable length and factor of subdivision
This is an old approach in which, the number of subdivisions required
is calculated by knowing the floodable length along the ship.
Floodable length is the length of the compartment which if flooded will
cause the ship to sink up to the margin line.

Floodable length and factor of subdivision
Margin line is the imaginary line drawn at least 76mm below the upper
surface of the bulkhead deck at side, such that, in any condition of
damage/flooding of the compartment, new waterline does not intersect
the margin line.
For a ship one needs to put subdivisions (bulkheads) to divide the ship
into compartments.
One such compartment is AB. The length of this compartment (Length
AB) need to such that if this compartment is flooded, the ship will sink
to a point where margin line is just submerged.

Now we want to place another bulkhead aft of midship. Again this
bulkhead needs to be at a location (C) such that if compartment AC is
flooded, the ship will sink to a point where margin line is just

other bulkheads along the ship’s length.

Permissible length and factor of subdivision
The maximum permissible length of a compartment having its centre at
any point in the ship’s length is obtained from the floodable length by
multiplying the latter by an appropriate factor called factor of

The factor of subdivision shall be:

Introduction
The problem of calculating the necessary strength of ships is made
difficult by the many and varied forces to which the ship structure is
subjected during its lifetime. These forces may be divided into two
groups, namely statical forces and dynamical forces.
The statical forces are due to:
– The weight of the structure which varies throughout the length of the ship.
– Buoyancy forces, which vary over each unit length of the ship and are constantly
varying in a seaway.
– Direct hydrostatic pressure.
– Concentrated local weights such as machinery, masts, derricks, winches, etc.
3
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Introduction
The dynamical forces are due to:
– Pitching, heaving and rolling.
– Wind and waves.
These forces cause bending in several planes and local strains are set
up due to concentrated loads. The effects are aggravated by structural
discontinuities.
A stress is the mutual actual between the parts of a material to preserve
their relative positions when external loads are applied to the material.
Thus, whenever external loads are applied to a material stresses are
created within the material.

Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Introduction
When an external load is applied to a
material in such a way as to cause an
extension of the material it is called a
‘tensile’ load, whilst an external load
tending to cause compression of the
material is a ‘compressive’ load and
corresponding stresses are called as
‘tensile’ and Compressive stresses,
respectively.
A shearing stress is a stress within a
material which tends to break or shear the
material across tending to cause
deformation of a material by slippage along
a plane

Force and CP of Bulkhead
The water pressure at any depth is due to the weight of water above the
point in question and increases uniformly with depth below the surface.
From this, it can be seen that the pressure at any depth will vary with
the depth below the surface and the density of the water.
Force acting on the bulkhead is given by the Area under the pressure
diagram* width of the bulkhead.
Lets consider a rectangular shaped bulkhead with dimension B X D,
immersed completely into the water of density ρ in such a way that, WL
is coinciding with top of the bulkhead.
Pressure at any point on the bulkhead is proportional to the depth of
water, hence it will be 0 at the top and maximum at the bottom of the
bulkhead, as shown in the figure.

Strength of Ship
In a seaway, the ship is subjected to both static and dynamic forces
which cause it to bend in a longitudinal vertical plane.
For the purposes of structural design and for comparison, ship and the
ship problem is considered as a static one, so that it resolves into the
ship being poised statically on a wave and the resulting forces and
moments acting on the ship are calculated.
In order to determine the forces acting on a ship, it is treated as a
girder. It is necessary to determine the distribution of weight and the
buoyancy.
The total weight must equal to the total buoyancy and the fore and aft
position of the centre of gravity must be in the same athwartship
section as the centre of buoyancy.
15
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Strength of Ship
For the purpose of investigating the longitudinal bending of a ship
certain assumptions are made. The calculations are, in general, carried
out for two standard conditions, Hogging and Sagging.
The assumptions are as follows:
– a) the ship is head on to the waves and is poised statically on a wave;
– b) the wave has a trochoidal profile of length equal to the length of the ship and a
height as described below.
– c) the wave crest is at amidships for the hogging condition;
– d) the wave crest is at the ends for the sagging condition.
A long accepted practice has been to take the height of the wave (h) as
1/20th of the length in strength calculations.
However, observation of sea waves has shown that longer waves tend
16
to be less steep than shorter waves.
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Strength of Ship
Lloyd's Register suggested that a better approximation to the height
would be
h = 0.607 ๐‘ณ meters
Later Murray of Lloyd's Register suggested that wave height should
vary as L0.3 instead of L0.5 and Muckle has derived from data that the
wave height can be written
h = 1·632*L0.3 where L is in metres.

Consider the case of a homogeneous log of rectangular section floating
freely at rest in still water.
The total weight of the log is balanced by the total force of buoyancy
and the weight (W) of any section of the log is balanced by the force of
buoyancy (B) provided by that section. There is therefore no bending
moment longitudinally which would cause stresses to be set up in the
log.

Strength of Ship
Now consider the case of a ship floating at rest in still water, on an even
keel, at the light draft.
Although the total weight of the ship is balanced by the total force of
buoyancy, neither is uniformly distributed throughout the ship’s length
19
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Strength of Ship
Although the sections in the ship are not free to move in this way,
bending moments, and consequently longitudinal stresses, are created
by the variation in the longitudinal distribution of weight and buoyancy,
and these must be allowed for in the construction of the ship.
When a ship encounters waves at sea the stresses created differ greatly
from those created in still water. The maximum stresses are considered
to exist when the wavelength is equal to the ship’s length and either a
wave crest or trough is situated amidships
20
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Strength of Ship
In this case, although once more the total weight of the ship is balanced
by the total buoyancy, there is an excess of buoyancy over the weight
amidships and an excess of weight over buoyancy at the bow and the
stern.
This situation creates a tendency for the ends of the ship to move
downwards and the section amidships to move upwards.
Under these conditions the ship is said to be subjected to a ‘hogging’
stress.
21
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Strength of Ship
Consider the effect after the wave crest has moved onwards and the
ship is now supported by wave crests at the bow and the stern and a
trough amidships.
There is now an excess of buoyancy over weight at the ends and an
excess of weight over buoyancy amidships.
The situation creates a tendency for the bow and the stern to move
upwards and the section amidships to move downwards
22
Prepared by Dr. Sudhir Sindagi
Strength of Ship
Under these conditions a ship is said to be subjected to a sagging
stress.
Sagging and hogging of ship occurs even when the ship in calm water.
If the weight distribution is such that, more weights are distributed at
the midship and lesser weights are distributed at the ends, then ship
will Sag.
However, the ship will hog, when the weights are distributed more at the
ends rather than at the midship.

As shown in the figure, under the static condition, weight of structure,
machinery, cargo etc. acts downwards on the ship, while pressure from
the surrounding fluid acts upwards or sideways depending on the
position.
This situation becomes more complex when the ship is moving in
waves. Hence it becomes paramount to design ship’s structure so that
it will withstand such loading conditions.
In order to find scantlings(thicknesses of every structural member) of
the ship, it is very important to calculate Bending Moment acting on the
ship, which is estimated as per the procedure

2. Distribution of buoyancy force per

sectional area of the ship.

Summary of Curves ( Relationship between strength Curves):
The area under the weight curve and that under the buoyancy curve are
equal.
The centroids of the areas of weight and buoyancy are in the same
athwartship section.
For the load curve the areas above and below the base line are equal.
The maximum values of the shearing force occur where the load curve
crosses the base line.
The maximum bending moment occurs where the shearing force curve
crosses the base line.
The shearing force and bending moment curves must close. The value
40
at the ends is zero.

The midship section of a ship of breadth 16.5m and depth 11m can be
assumed as shown in the figure. All the material has a thickness of
1.25cm. Determine the MI of the section about NA. Moments are taken
about the base. What are the section modulus at the upper deck and at
the keel? Determine bending stress (stating whether tensile or
compressive) for a sagging BM of 44500 t-m. If the ships length is 200m,
is it safe in bending stress?

Distance of NA from the keel=5.1751 m from keel
We need to estimate the MI about NA.
Hence, using parallel axis theorem
MI about Keel= Σ(INA)self +Σ(A*d2)
MI about Keel= 50.9051 m4
MI about Keel= INA+A*d2
50.9051 = INA+ 1.115*5.17512

Since induced stresses are lesser than the allowable stresses hence,
the structure of the ship is safe.
