How the numbering of the frame is done? what is zero frame?

The last part of the compartment number is the letter that identifies the primary usage of the compartment. On dry- and liquid-cargo ships, a double letter is used to designate cargo spaces. The double letter will differentiate them from spaces containing the same commodity for use by the ship. Fuel oil and JP-5 jet fuel are two examples.

Access closures are numbered in the same manner as compartments, except that the letter designating the compartments use is omitted
