Function - 3 Q1. what is the speciality of Container vessels A1. i mentioned the Tortion box and got grilled about WHY it was put there OR when we strengthen a ship, by adding a strength,, what exactly are we doing ??.... He finally wanted to hear "to increase the Section Modulus of the Ship" Section modulus, as told by Wankhede sier has something to do with the Moment of inertia or something,, do look it up... for the tortion box i drew the cross section of the vessel,, so he asked me questions on the construction of the container cargo hold also.. eg. the securing arrangements for the containers while in the hold etc... Q2. Draw the Cross section of DB tank you have seen,, i drew the Longitudinally framed,,, but forgot to label the Scallops around the bottom (and inner bottom) longitudinals,,, and he asked WHY is scallop this there ??.. He later told me that the Solid floor and the longitudinal are joined by a pressure plate thats welded in place,... then Mishra sir took the remaining safety Marpol and Solas Marpol,, i told him complete names of all Annexes,, and no further questions on Marpol Solas,, how many chapters,, name them,, what is there in the 11th chapter,... including 11.1 and 11.2 in 11.1 - Continuous Synopsis Record, Automatic Identification System, (not sure) Long Range Identification and Tracking... this is because,, AIS is being implimented in India this year,, in light of Mr. Kassab's actions in 2008. CO2 weekly checks,.. i told him all simple ones... but he wanted to hear,, the opening of the CO2 release cabinet door, and activation of the alarms,,.. and i told him only C/E did it during the monthly drill,, he was like this is wrong, on the part of your superiors and stuff..... then a few things about the CO2 monthly and yearly checks,, which you can easily find in the books,,, thats exactly what i answered.... Result : PASS... :D Thanks a lot guys.... keep up the good work and keep helping each other out.... Best of luck on your endeavors...
