A bulk cargo which is classified, as Class 5,1 dangerous good must be separated from a bulk
cargo classified as Class 6,2 by at last 3 metres.

Cargoes, which may be sub/ect to li+uefying, should0

7hich one of following answers is the correct definition of the (towage factor$
;t is the factor, witch e*presses the number of cubic metres which one tone of material
will occupy.
7hy is it important that water is ne#er used to e*tinguish fire in the cargo hold white at sea$
;t may bring the moisture content of the cargo material to a flow state.
7hy must samples and tests of a stockpile of the cargo be taken within > days prior loading$
)o measure the correct moisture content.
7hy should high " density cargoes not be stowed to e*cessi#e high$
)he bulkhead may become o#er " stressed and the tank top o#erloaded in part of the hold.
