3.2.1 This subsection should present information
on cargo spaces in the form of a suitable table containing:
-
.1 name and/or number of space;
-
.2 frame numbers at forward and aft end of space;
-
.3 volume at 100% filling; and
-
.4 longitudinal, transverse and vertical co-ordinates
of the centre of volume with regard to the reference planes.
3.2.2 On break-bulk ships, additionally, the permissible
surface load per area for the particular deck or tanktop should be
given in t/m2. The volume of spaces may be given separately
for bale cargo and for grain, if appropriate.
3.2.3 On bulk carriers, the permissible total
mass of cargo in the particular space should be given.
3.2.4 On tankers, additionally, the volume at
98% filling and the moment of inertia of the free surface at 98% filling
should be given.
3.2.5 On ships equipped for the carriage of containers,
a detailed container stowage plan should be provided using an accepted
numbering system and presenting the longitudinal, transverse and vertical
co-ordinates of the assumed centres of mass of containers. The vertical
co-ordinates should refer to a centre of mass at 50% of container
height of ISO containers of 8'06" height. If the ship is intended
to carry other types of containers, their appropriate height should
be used.
Any reduction of vertical co-ordinates with regard to the assumption
of centre of mass should be indicated. Maximum stack masses and maximum
stack heights of containers may be included in this information.
3.2.6 On ro-ro ships, the stowage lanes should
be suitably subdivided for identifying longitudinal co-ordinates of
stowage positions. The vertical co-ordinates should refer to 2 m above
the deck level, unless the cargo in a specific trade requires a different
value.
