Area = 10/3 ⨯ 4.531/57.3
= 0.2637 m radian

Area of triangle = 0.5 ⨯ 17 ⨯ 0.162/57.3
= 0.024 m radian

Area of trapezium = 0.5 ⨯ (0.163 + 0.144) ⨯ 23/57.3
= 0.062 m radian

Residual area = 0.1811m radian
Therefore, Ship doesn’t comply.

Hence, vessel does not satisfy intact stability requirement for grain cargo or grain loading criteria.
