Question 3200 Deck General

The correct answer is A) shoring. Shoring is the procedure of strengthening damaged structures on a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU) by using wood or steel. This process involves installing temporary supports or props to reinforce and stabilize the damaged structure, preventing further deterioration or collapse. Shoring is a common practice in the maritime industry to maintain the structural integrity of vessels and offshore platforms. The other options, B) battening, C) blocking, and D) bracing, while related techniques, do not specifically describe the process of strengthening damaged structures on a MODU using wood or steel, which is the focus of the question.
