i want to know how does cargo ships carry and how do they design the ships ? what do u look in when designing a cargo ships .
Something floats because it weighs less that the weight of the liquid that it forces aside. This is true of saucepans in your kitchen sink and ships – only the size is different.
It floats because it displaces more water by weight then it weighs itself. It keeps floating because it is water tight.
why a ship floats has been answered.
The considerations when designing a ship are vast. a “cargo ship”can be ha huge range of ships. with are build whit Various considerations.
I shall give some things to keep in mind when designing a ship:
what kind of cargo will be carried. examples:
-container
-bulk cargo (like ore)
-heavy loads (factory parts)
-general cargo (like timber paper)
-gas
-chemicals
-refrigerated cargo (often fast ships)
-livestock
amount of cargo (big ship or small)
Sailing area is of huge influence
-are there restrictions in the ships dimensions (draft, air draft, length Breadth) when passing channels bridges and locks.
-what should be the range of the ship and at what speed
-the port facility’s does the ship need its own cargo handling gear and is it hard to manoeuvre (extra thrusters)
-does the ship need an ice classification
all in all depending on the specific use of the cargo ship its design has specific requirements.
