🔍 Key Concepts

• Locate the Steward's Office on the plan and note whether it is on the port or starboard side relative to the centerline. • Identify the symbol used for a fire axe on this specific fire control plan and find all such symbols near the Steward's Office. • Pay attention to the frame numbers printed along the centerline so you can match each axe location to the nearest labeled frame and side.

💭 Think About

• Once you find the Steward's Office, which direction (toward the bow, stern, port, or starboard) would you walk the shortest distance to reach a fire axe symbol? • Compare the distance from the Steward's Office to the axe near the passageway and to any axes in the Halon and CO2 rooms—visually, which is clearly closest? • After deciding which axe is closest, which frame number and side label (port or starboard) is printed nearest to that location on the drawing?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm you are reading the centerline correctly so that you do not mix up port and starboard. • Double‑check that you are using the correct fire axe symbol, not confusing it with hydrants, extinguishers, or alarms. • Verify the frame number label closest to the axe you selected before matching it to one of the answer choices.
