🔍 Key Concepts

• Ship construction terminology used to describe frames, plates, and other strength members • Difference between dimensions of structure vs. loading conditions (draft, load line) • How classification societies and rules describe structural member sizes

💭 Think About

• Which option best matches something a naval architect or shipyard would specify when designing the ship’s strength members? • Which choices are more about how heavily a ship is loaded versus how big and thick its structural pieces are? • If a surveyor says “these scantlings are inadequate,” what specifically is he saying is too small or light?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice deals with physical dimensions of structural parts (thickness, width, size) rather than operating conditions. • Eliminate any answers that clearly relate to draft, loading, or marks on the hull instead of construction details. • Ask whether “scantlings” would be shown on construction drawings and steel plans or on loading and stability documents.
