🔍 Key Concepts

• Using the Stability Data Reference Book white pages to find individual tank vertical centers of gravity (KG) and capacities • How to calculate an overall KG of a liquid load using moments: total moment ÷ total weight • Recognizing that port, starboard, and centerline double‑bottom tanks (DB) may share the same KG if they are on the same longitudinal level

💭 Think About

• For each tank listed (DB 2 P, DB 2 S, DB 3 CL, etc.), what two pieces of information must you extract from the white pages before you can compute a KG for the whole liquid load? • Once you have the weight and KG of each tank, how do you combine them into a single equivalent KG for the entire liquid load? • Looking at the answer choices, what happens to the overall KG when you have many tanks low in the ship versus high in the ship?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the units in the Stability Data Reference Book (tons for weight, feet for KG) and keep them consistent. • Confirm that you are using the correct line in the tank tables: the one corresponding to the actual volume or loading condition shown in table ST‑0133. • Before choosing an answer, double‑check that you summed all tank weights and all tank moments (weight × KG) and then divided: ( KG_{total} = \frac{\sum (W_i \times KG_i)}{\sum W_i} ).
