Question 1907 Deck Safety
70% to passIn a transversely framed ship, the transverse frames are supported by all of the following EXCEPT _______________.
A
side stringers
B
web plates
C
girders
D
longitudinals
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) web plates. In a transversely framed ship, the transverse frames are supported by side stringers, girders, and longitudinals, but not by web plates. Web plates are used to provide additional support and strength to the longitudinal framing system, not the transverse framing. The other options (A, C, and D) are all correct supports for the transverse frames in a transversely framed ship, as they help distribute the loads and stresses acting on the vessel's structure.
