Structural Strength
The deeper the draft of a ship (the
amount of the ship that is underwater),
the greater are the loads imposed on the
ship's structure. So a ship with a deeper
draught requires a higher freeboard.
Deck Height
Platform height (the height of the weather
deck above the waterline) is a measure of
how the vessel may be affected by seas
which sweep across the deck.
Transverse Stability
Hull Form
Sheer describes the curve between bow and stern. A
ship with high freeboard at the bows and stern
compared to midships (where freeboard is
measured) has more reserve buoyancy.

Load Line
LTF - Lumber, Tropical Fresh - This is the draft to
which the vessel can load when carrying lumber in
the Tropical Fresh designated zone.
LF - Lumber, Fresh - This is the draft to which the
vessel can load when carrying lumber in the Fresh
designated zone.
LT - Lumber, Tropical - This is the draft to which
the vessel can load when carrying lumber in the
Tropical designated zone.
LS - Lumber, Summer - This is the draft to which
the vessel can load when carrying lumber in the
Summer designated zone.

Regulation 27
Types of ships
(1) For the purposes of freeboard computation
ships shall be divided into Type "A" and Type "B".
Type "A" ships
(2) A Type "A" ship is one which is designed to
carry only liquid cargoes in bulk, and in which
cargo tanks have only small access openings
closed by watertight gasketed covers of steel or
equivalent material. Such a ship necessarily has
the following inherent features:
(a) high integrity of the exposed deck; and (b)
high degree of safety against flooding, resulting
from the low permeability of loaded cargo spaces
and the degree of subdivision usually provided.
