    Draft

    Draft = (Summer Freeboard + Summer Draft) - Measured Freeboard Position of the after, amidships, and forward perpendiculars

    CORRECTION TO THE PERPENDICULARS


    Correction = Distance of draft x Trim read from draft marks
    marks from End perpendicular Distance between draft marks

    Correction = Distance of draft x Trim at perpendiculars


    marks from Amidships line Length between Perpendiculars

    CORRECTION FOR HULL DEFORMATION


    Correction = Forward draft + After draft + (6 x Amidships draft)
    8
    Note:
    Known as the 'Mean of Means draft' providing a more accurate mean draft when the ship is hogged or sagged.

    CORRECTIONS FOR TRIM


    FIRST TRIM CORRECTION (or 'Layer' correction):

    Correction (tonnes) = Trim (cms) x LCF (metres) x TPC


    LBP (metres)
    Note:
    Where LCF means distance of the LCF from Amidships and LBP is the length between perpendiculars. To apply this
    correction, when the LCF is in the same direction from amidships as the deepest draft it is added to the displacement
    and when it is in the opposite direction it is subtracted.

    SECOND TRIM CORRECTION:


    Correction (tonnes) = (Trim in metres)² x 50 x dM
    LBP (metres) dZ
    Note:
    Where dM
    dZ
    is the difference between the MCT for a draft of 50 cm greater than the corrected mean draft and 50 cm less than the
    corrected mean draft. This correction is always added to the displacement.

    CORRECTION FOR HEEL

    Correction (tonnes) = 6 x (T1 - T2 ) x (D1 - D2)


    Note:
    Where T1 is the TPC for the deepest draft amidships (D1) measured in metres and T2 is the TPC for the shallower draft
    amidships (D2) measured in metres. The correction is always added to the displacement because the effect of heel is to
    increase the waterplane area and so lift the ship out of the water.

    CORRECTION OF DISPLACEMENT FOR DENSITY

    True Displacement = Scale displacement x Density of dock water


    Density used for the displacement scale
