What is the name of an internal passage of watertight construction fitted along the centerline between the double bottoms of some ships, usually from the forepeak to the forward machinery space bulkhead, used to carry pipe work along the length of the ship to the various holds or tanks?
• Ship structural members near the keel • Purpose of double bottoms and centerline passages • Difference between keels and internal trunks/passages
• Which term refers to an enclosed passageway large enough to run pipes and sometimes allow access, rather than just a structural bar or plate? • Think about what structural piece actually lies between the inner bottom and outer bottom plating along the centerline. • Which options are true specialized shipbuilding terms widely used in tankers and bulk carriers for routing pipelines?
• Identify which option is associated with double-bottom construction and centerline passage. • Eliminate any terms that mainly describe the external keel type rather than an internal tunnel or passage. • Confirm which term is commonly used on tankers and bulk carriers for running cargo and ballast piping.
