Question 510 Deck General

The correct answer is A) deck capacity plan. The deck capacity plan is the appropriate document to refer to in order to determine the weight capacity of a deck in a cargo hold. This plan provides the specific design information about the deck's structural capacity, including the maximum allowable weight that can be safely loaded onto the deck. The other options are incorrect because: B) cubic capacity tables provide information about the overall volume capacity of the cargo hold, not the specific deck weight capacity; C) the general arrangement plan shows the overall layout of the ship, but does not contain the detailed deck capacity information; and D) the deadweight scale indicates the overall weight capacity of the entire vessel, not the specific deck weight capacity.
