🔍 Key Concepts

• On ship construction plans, transverse means "athwartships" (side-to-side) from a central reference line. • There is a standard drafting symbol for the ship’s centerline, which all transverse offsets are measured from. • Other symbols in the figure are used for things like baseline, buttock lines, or stations/frames, not for transverse reference.

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: transverse (side-to-side) measurements are always taken from what main reference on a ship’s plan? Identify that concept first, then match it to the symbol. • Look at each symbol and think which one most clearly suggests a center line or symmetry line of the vessel, rather than a vertical or longitudinal reference. • Eliminate any symbol that obviously refers to the bottom reference (baseline) or looks like a frame/station mark instead of the centerline.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you know that transverse offsets are measured from the centerline of the vessel on lines plans. • Confirm which symbol in the set is commonly labeled or associated with CL on naval architecture drawings. • Double‑check that the symbol you choose would logically represent a line of symmetry, not the keel, waterline, or baseline.
