🔍 Key Concepts

• Dry docking procedures and what inspections are normally done when a ship is out of the water • The meaning of the term belt-gauging in relation to hull survey requirements • Difference between checking shape/deflection of the hull and checking thickness/condition of the shell plating

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When a vessel is out of the water, what part of the structure becomes accessible that cannot be checked at sea, and what property of that structure is critical for safety? • Which answer choices deal with hull thickness versus hull shape or other equipment, and how does that relate to the word 'gauged'? • Which of the listed tasks would a surveyor be most concerned with to detect corrosion or wastage of the ship’s shell plating over time?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option involves determining actual metal thickness rather than just visual inspection or dimensional layout • Eliminate choices that focus on shafting or anchor cables, and think about whether those are connected to the word belt in this context • Recall that the term gauging usually implies a measurement of thickness or amount, not checking for deformation or offsets
