Question 2682 Deck Safety
70% to passYou are on a supply run to an offshore drilling rig. You are carrying the load show in table ST-0027 below. What is the height above the main deck of the center of gravity of the cargo?
The correct answer is C) 1.52 feet. The height above the main deck of the center of gravity of the cargo is determined by the weight and positioning of the individual items in the cargo load. Based on the information provided in table ST-0027, the calculated center of gravity is 1.52 feet above the main deck. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the center of gravity calculation for the given cargo load. A thorough understanding of cargo load dynamics and stability calculations is required to determine the correct center of gravity height in this type of scenario, which is why option C is the correct answer.
