With the aids of suitable labeled

diagrams, show why ship at listed
condition is dangerous?. Show in your
diagram how the initial stability (initial
GZ) of the ship could be reduced at listed
APPLICATION
condition.

In lieu to ship stability perspective, determine

why it is important to ensure before the ship is
sailing to open sea, all moveable items onboard
including cargo (solid cargo) need to be properly
secured and lashed at APPLICATION
all times. Elaborate your
answer by making a comparison on the
consequences when the items are properly
secured and not properly secured.

a mean draft of 6.8 m and is to be loaded to a
mean draft of 7 m. GM 0.7 m. TPC 20 t. The ship

FORCE
• Can be defined as any push or pull

exerted on a body.
…
A. Force & Moment DNS Semester 2/Ship Stability/November 2014 /Capt. MR 25


FORCE
• Can be defined as any push or pull

exerted on a body.
• It is the product of mass and

acceleration i.e. F = ma

FORCE
• Unit of force = Newton
• 1kgf = 9.81N
• 1000 kgf = 1 Tonne
**1 tonne = 1 metric tonnes


FORCE
Points to consider on FORCE:
m
• the _______ of the force
• the _______
d
in which the force is
applied and
• the ______
p at which the force is
applied

Resolving two forces which act in

parallel directions
• When two forces act in parallel

direction, their combined effect can be
represented by one force whose
magnitude is equal to the algebraic
sum of the two component forces and
will act through a point about which
their moments are equal.
(w x d) =

Example 1
In figure the parallel forces P and W are

acting downwards through A and B
respectively. Let W be greater than P.


Example 1
In figure the parallel forces P and W are

acting downwards through A and B
respectively. Let W be greater than P.
Their resultant, (W+P), acts upwards

through the point C such that P x y = W x x
Since W is greater than P, the point C will

be nearer to B than to A.

A uniform plank is 12m long and is supported

at both ends.
A load of 20 tonnes is placed at the distance

of 2m from the right end and a load of 30

(w x d) + (w x d) = wxd
(20 x 10) + (30 x 4) = w x 12 m
200 + 120 = 12 w
320 = 12 w
w = 26.7 t
Therefore…
Support ‘B’ will take 26.7 t
and
Support ‘A’ will take 50 – 26.7 = 23.3 t

Distributions of Parallel Forces

• When two forces act in parallel direction,
their combined effect can be represented
by one force whose magnitude is equal to
the algebraic sum of the two component
forces and will act through a point about
which their moments are equal.
• A+B=W
• Ax x=Bxy

CASE
In order to extinguish fire in the vehicle deck Ro-Ro

ships the "drencher system" is put into operation and as
a result of blocked scupper this deck is flooded with SW
to a depth of 0.50m evenly throughout.
The vehicle deck is rectangular in shape 100m long and

20m wide and the following particulars apply to the ship
before the fire.
Displacement is 20 000 tonnes, KG 8.0m, KM 10.0m

(constant).
Height of vehicle deck above the keel is 9.75m.
Calculate the resultant GM and briefly comment on this

result.

Conclusion…
• Vessel needs initial KG as

6.189m in order to maintain the
angle of list not more than 5
during the operation.

LIST
10 minutes discussion

diagrams, show why ship at listed
condition is dangerous?. Show in your
diagram how the initial stability (initial
GZ) of the ship could be reduced at listed
condition.
In lieu to ship stability perspective, determine

why it is important to ensure before the ship is
sailing to open sea, all moveable items onboard
including cargo (solid cargo) need to be properly
secured and lashed at all times. Elaborate your
answer by making a comparison on the
consequences when the items are properly
secured and not properly secured.

SUMMARY
• List has caused the ship’s GZ to

reduce thus reduction in stability
performance.
• Vessel may capsize if the residual

stability is insufficient to ensure
the vessel could safely afloat .

To Study The Effect Of Centre Of Gravity Of

Loading / Discharging And Shifting Of Weights
• End of topics, students are able to

demonstrate the understanding of the
principles and to solve the problems given
by
 Calculates the effect on Centre of Gravity
of vessel by adding, removing and
shifting of weight
 Calculates list problems
 Calculates free surface effect problems
 Explain the effect of positive and
negative GM towards stability of the
ships
