Determining a viable arrangement of containers that facilitates this process in a cost-effective way makes up the container stowage problem.<\/p>\n<p>Stowage planners determine stowage arrangement for a container ship. The planners ascertain the placement of containers so that following constraints are satisfied.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Restrictions placed upon where and how containers can be stowed and<\/li>\n<li>Material handling costs i.e. costs associated with loading, unloading and transporting cargo are minimized. The most important aspect is the re-handle. A re-handle is a container movement made in order to permit access to another or to improve the overall stowage arrangement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In a container ship, a stowage plan is prepared as per the container to be discharge and loaded on a particular port along with the tanks condition i.e. mass carried by the ship other than cargo. This is done to maintain the stability of the ship at all times.<\/p>\n<p>Objectives when cargo is stowed in the ship,<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To protect the ship.<\/li>\n<li>To protect the cargo.<\/li>\n<li>To obtain the maximum use of the available capacity of the ship.<\/li>\n<li>To provide for rapid and systematic discharging and loading.<\/li>\n<li>To provide for the safety of crew and shore men at all times.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Key issues to be considered when loading cargo container on ships,<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Over stowage should be avoided and cargo planning to be done as per the latest cargo, i.e. cargo for a later port should not be placed over that of an earlier port.<\/li>\n<li>Loading conditions must be calculated for intact stability, shearing force, bending moment, torsion moment, trim and draft etc. Torsion moment, bending moment and shear force values must not exceed 100% at any time.<\/li>\n<li>The IMO visibility line should be taken care of when planning the stowage of containers on deck.<\/li>\n<li>The stowage of IMDG containers to be done as per ships Document of compliance with the special requirements for ships carrying dangerous goods<\/li>\n<li>The GM value is affected (increases\/decreases) by means of stowing light containers on top of heavy containers respectively and vice-versa. GM is the Metacentric height which is the distance between the centre of gravity of the ship and its metacentre.<\/li>\n<li>The GM is responsible for deciding the stability factor of the ship. In a low GM situation, it is preferable for light containers to be stowed on top.<\/li>\n<li>However, usually the GM values for ship are high and stowing light containers on top of heavy ones will only increase GM leading to a \u201cstiff\u201d ship with short rolling periods, which increases the stresses on the lashing.<\/li>\n<li>In this situation, it is preferable for the heavy containers to be loaded on top but with due regard to lashing stresses and staking weight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/logistics-and-supply-chain-management\/certified-international-logistics-management-professional\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-62038\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-62038\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Vskills-Int-Logistics-Banner.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Vskills-Int-Logistics-Banner.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Vskills-Int-Logistics-Banner-300x45.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Vskills-Int-Logistics-Banner-768x115.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Vskills-Int-Logistics-Banner-1024x153.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Vskills-Int-Logistics-Banner-712x106.png 712w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"179\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apply for International Logistics Certification Now!!
