🔍 Key Concepts

• High-density solid bulk cargo and how it affects the structure of the ship • Difference between stability (list/trim) and structural stresses • Effect of concentrated weights on longitudinal strength of the hull

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which option deals more with the overall bending of the ship’s hull rather than just how it floats upright or level? • Consider what happens if you load a very heavy cargo all in one or two holds instead of spreading it along the length: which problem from the choices is most directly caused by that? • Think about which of the four options is most specifically addressed by Cargo Securing/Loading Manuals and loading computers when checking hold-by-hold weights.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which answers (A, B, C) mainly refer to stability and trim, and which one refers to hull strength instead. • Verify that high-density cargo can be safely carried even if the vessel has some list or trim, but cannot be safely carried if structural limits are exceeded. • Recall that loading guidance often talks about hogging and sagging and maximum permissible still water bending moments—match that to the best answer.
