DRY DOCKING
HYDROSTATIC TABLES AND VESSEL ‘A’ TYPE PROBLEMS
Proceed as follows :
1. Find mean draft from the present given drafts.
2. From this mean draft, look in tables for LCF
3. Using that LCF, calculate TMD
4. From the TMD, look in tables and find MCTC, LCF and DISPLACEMENT
5. Calculate now P-Force
6. For Displacement (W) at Critical Instant, find W-P
7. From this new (W), look in tables for KMT
8. Now find Virtual loss of GM and use new KMT but old Displacement (W)
9. Find now initial GM, using the new KMT
10. Apply Virtual loss of GM in it and find the EFFECTIVE GM.
