🔍 Key Concepts

• Light ship condition and what it includes (weight and centers of gravity before cargo, fuel, etc.) • Purpose and procedure of an inclining experiment in naval architecture • How load lines are finally assigned and what data they must be based on

💭 Think About

• Which option describes a formal, standardized test used worldwide to verify weight and centers of gravity of the actual, completed vessel? • Consider which methods involve measured vessel behavior versus just design assumptions or simple ballasting. • Ask yourself: which choice would classification societies and flag states accept as proof for assigning official load lines?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option involves a controlled experiment on the real vessel rather than only design calculations. • Check which method directly provides GM (metacentric height) and allows calculation of vertical center of gravity from observed heel angles. • Verify which process is typically required by rules before final approval of stability booklet and load line assignment.
