🔍 Key Concepts

• Container stowage planning on cellular container ships • The relationship between weight distribution and ship stability/strength • Special requirements for reefer (refrigerated) containers

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: besides the port where it comes off, what container characteristic most affects where it can safely be stacked in a vertical stow? • Which of the choices relates directly to limits on stacking containers on top of each other (e.g., maximum stack load, lashing forces)? • Which factor is critical for planning power supply points and special handling locations on deck or in holds?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option includes a factor that controls vertical stack height (heavy vs light boxes). • Identify which option mentions cargo needing electrical power or special temperature control. • Eliminate options that deal mainly with traditional break‑bulk concerns like dunnage, chocking, sweat, and inherent vice, which are less central in modern container operations.
