LOADING COMPUTER Safe loading The KONGSBERG ShipLoad loading computer utilizes 3-D models of the vessels’ hydrostatic – a full geometric definition of the vessels – as basis for the calculation of e.g. loading conditions, floating position, and stability and longitudinal strength. There are no pre-computed tables, no simplifications or assumptions, but only a precise description of the actual loading condition. Thus, what you see is exactly what you have – no dead-freight or overload. By utilizing the full geometrical definition of the vessel as basis for the computation, additional...
