    Compression bars, rubber gaskets, and drainage channels are critical components that contribute to the weather tightness of a hatch cover. Compression bars apply pressure to seal the hatch cover panels, rubber gaskets create seals between panels and the coaming, and drainage channels direct water away from the cargo hold. Cleats and fasteners secure panels to the deck during rough weather. Coatings like paint protect components from corrosion. The structural components of a hatch cover most likely to experience corrosion are the steel panels, fasteners, compression bars, cleats, and hinges, as these are all made of steel and exposed to salt water, moisture, and other environmental factors.

    Identify the critical components of the hatch
    cover that contribute to weather tightness:
    1.Compression bars: Compression bars are components that are used to apply pressure to the hatch cover panels to create a weather
    tight seal. These bars run along the length of the hatch cover and are typically located on top of the panels. The compression bars
    are connected to the hatch coaming via clamps or brackets and are tightened using screws or hydraulic systems.
    2.Rubber gaskets: Rubber gaskets are used to create a seal between the hatch cover panels and the hatch coaming. These gaskets
    are typically made of neoprene or similar materials that are resistant to weather and UV radiation. The gaskets are placed between
    the panels and the coaming and are compressed by the compression bars to create a tight seal.
    3.Drainage channels: Drainage channels are components that are used to channel water away from the hatch cover and prevent it
    from entering the cargo hold. These channels are typically located along the edges of the hatch cover panels and direct water
    towards scuppers or other drainage systems on the deck.
    4.Cleats and fasteners: Cleats and fasteners are components that are used to secure the hatch cover panels to the deck and prevent
    them from lifting or shifting during rough weather. These components are typically made of steel and are designed to withstand
    high loads and forces.
    5.Coatings: Coatings such as paint or other weather-resistant materials are applied to the hatch cover panels and components to
    protect them from the elements and prevent corrosion.
    LO: 13.6
    Identify the structural components of a hatch cover
    which are most likely to experience corrosion:
    1.Steel panels: The hatch cover panels are typically made of steel and are therefore susceptible to corrosion.
    Corrosion can occur due to exposure to salt water, moisture, and other environmental factors.
    2.Fasteners: The fasteners that hold the hatch cover panels in place are also susceptible to corrosion. These
    fasteners are typically made of steel and are subject to the same environmental factors as the hatch cover
    panels.
    3.Compression bars: Compression bars are also made of steel and are subject to the same environmental factors
    as the hatch cover panels and fasteners. Corrosion of the compression bars can affect the integrity of the
    weather-tight seal and compromise the protection of the cargo hold.
    4.Cleats: Cleats are also susceptible to corrosion due to exposure to the elements. These components are typically
    made of steel and are subject to the same environmental factors as the other components of the hatch cover.
    5.Hinges: The hinges that allow the hatch cover panels to be opened and closed are also susceptible to corrosion.
    These components are typically made of steel and are subject to the same environmental factors as the other
    components of the hatch cover.
