What are methods of reducing Adverse Heeling Effect of Grain Shift ?

  • It may be assumed that under the influence of ship motion underdeck voids will be substantially filled by the flow of grain from a pair of longitudinal feeders provided that:
    • The feeders extends for the full length of the deck and that the perforations therein are adequately spaced.
    • The volume of each feeder is equal to the volume of the underdeck void outboard of the hatchside girder and its continuation.
