TUTOR MARKED ASSIGNMENT
FLP2524 Diploma in Marine Surveying
Covering Modules Six and Seven
1 15% In your own words, describe the role of Marine Safety
Investigating States with regards to a very serious marine Casualty as
defined by the Casualty Investigation Code.
2 15% List five legal rights of the surveyor being interviewed by
the Marine Safety Investigating State and explain for each of these, why
this is important to both the surveyor and to the Investigation
outcome.
3 Select a recent marine system failure that has attracted your
Interest. Collect information relating to the failure from different
sources such as reports, statements, newspapers, magazines or journals.
Include these sources with your answer.
A: 15% Name and draw a systems map to include all of the important
components mentioned in the sources. Organise them into environmental
factors, wider system factors and the system understudy.
B: 15% Draw a Sequential Fact Diagram (SFD) based on the sources and
the system map. Remember to include only those items for which evidence
exists.
C: 20% Write a short factual report based on your SFD
4 10% A ship of length 180 m and beam 20 m floats at a mean draught
of 8.5 m when in water of density 1.025 tonnes/m3. Assuming her block
coefficient is 0.5 and her waterplane coefficient of fineness is 0.6,
calculate the ship’s displacement and her approximate draught when it
enters water of density
1.010 tonnes/m3. Continued…/
5 10% A ship of 8,000 tonnes floats at a draught of 7 m with a
freeboard of 4 m. A uniform weight of 65 tonnes on the deck is 4 m high
and it is to be lifted by a crane with its suspension point 12 m above
the deck. If the original KB = 4.25 m, KG = 6.75 m and KM = 7.65 m, find
the reduction in GM when the crane lifts the weight from the deck.
