DEDraught measurement
Draught, trim and list
The most important measurements on board are those for determining draught, trim and list. The safety of the ship depends heavily on them. Using the values transmitted from the different measuring points, the load master, as part of the cargo control system (CCS), can determine the exact values of ship attitude and draught. One forepeak and one afterpeak measuring point are usually implemented. On larger ships, two additional measuring points are often applied midships, one portside, one starboard.
