🔍 Key Concepts

• Leg load reactions on an independent leg, self‑elevating (jack‑up) unit • Difference between static forces (constant, due to weight) and other types of operational forces • How loads are classified in stability/structural calculations: permanent vs. changing loads

💭 Think About

• Think about what kinds of forces, besides static weight, act on the legs as the unit operates, loads/offloads, and works in varying sea states. • Ask yourself which option best describes loads that can change over time during operations, rather than remaining constant. • Consider how stability manuals and trim/stability problems usually group weights and forces: what is the common term used for loads that are not fixed and can vary with operations?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option refers to loads that change with operations, cargo, and conditions, not just environmental forces like wind and waves. • Check how standard stability texts distinguish between permanent (lightship/fixed) loads and operational/changing loads. • Eliminate any answer choice that would be considered part of the unit’s constant structure or basic configuration rather than something that can vary.
