    Sheer:
    It is the curvature of decks in the longitudinal
    direction. It is measured as the height of
    deck at sides at any point above the height of
    deck at side amidships.
    It increases buoyancy at the peaks therefore
    quickly lifts the bow and stern above water
    during pitching.

    Camber (or Round of Beam):


    It is the curvature of decks in the transverse
    direction. It is measured as the height of deck
    at centre above the height of deck at side. It
    helps in quick drainage of water from deck
    Rise of Floor (or Dead rise):
    It is the rise of the bottom shell plating line
    above the base line. This rise is measured at
    the line of moulded beam.
    It makes a gentle slop of the double bottom
    tanks towards the centre line, thereby creating
    better suction of ballast with the suction bell
    mouth is located near the centreline.

    As the name indicates, it is the section of the


    ship’s length where the two side shells are
    parallel.
    While a ship is berthed alongside a wharf, it is
    this portion which remains in contact with the
    jetty fenders.

    Run:
    It is the length of the ship from the stern to a
    point from where the parallel body starts.

    Entrance:
    It is the length of the ship from the stem to a
    point from where the parallel body starts.

    Flare:
    It is the outward curvature of the side shell
    above the waterline.
    It promotes dryness and is therefore
    associated with the fore end of ship.

    Rake of Keel:

    It is the inclination of the keel line from the


    horizontal.
    Trawlers and tugs often have keels raked aft to
    give greater depth aft where the propeller
    diameter is proportionately larger in this type
    of vessel.

    Stem Rake:
    Inclination of the stem line from the vertical.
