    TYPES OF CARGOES

     The range of cargoes now available for


    maritime transportation is wide and varies.

    TERMINOLOGY AND
    DEFINTIONS RELATED
    TO CARGO HANDLING
    DEADWEIGHT CARGO:
     Is a cargo on which freight is usually charged
    on its weight, that is, no hard and fast rules
    are in force. However, cargoes stowing at less
    than 1.2m3/tonne (40ft3/tonne) is likely to be
    rated as deadweight cargo.
    MEASUREMENT CARGO:
     Is a cargo on which freight is usually charged
    on the volume occupied by the cargo. Such
    cargo is usually light and bulky, stowing at
    more than 1.2m3 per tonne (40cu.ft/tonne),
    but may also be heavy castings of awkward
    shape where a lot of space is occupied.
    BALE CAPACITY:
     Is that cubic capacity of cargo space when the
    breadth is measured from the inside of the
    cargo battens (spar ceiling) and the measured
    depth is from the wood tank top ceiling to
    the deck beams. The length is measured from
    the inside of the fore and aft bulkhead
    stiffeners.
    GRAIN CAPACITY:
     Is that cubic capacity of a cargo space when
    the length, breadth and depth are measured
    from the inside of the ships shell plating, all
    allowances being made for the volume
    occupied by frames and beams.
    STOWAGE CAPACITY:
     This is defined as that volume occupied by
    unit weight of cargo, usually expressed as
    cubic meters per tonne (m3/tonne or ft3 per
    tonne). It does not take into account of any
    space which may be lost due to broken
    stowage.
    BROKEN STOWAGE:
     Is the space between packages which remains
    unfilled. The percentage that has to be
    allowed varies with the type of cargo and with
    the shape of the ships hold. It is the greatest
    when large cases are stowed in an end hold
    or at the turn of a bilge.
    DIRTY CARGO:
     A very general classification for dirty cargoes
    could include paint and crude oils, steel work,
    coal etc
    CLEAN CARGO:
     General classification of clean cargo could
    include food products and manufacturing
    products eg. Cloth, Cotton bales etc
    OPTIONAL CARGO:
     Is a cargo which is described for the
    discharge at either one or two or more ports.
    It must be stowed so as to be available for
    discharge at any of the optional ports
    CARGO PLAN OR STOWAGE PLAN:
     Is a ships plan which shows the distribution
    of all cargo parcels stowed on board the
    vessel for the voyage. Each entry unto to the
    plan would detail the quantity, the weight,
    volume and port of discharge. The plan is
    constructed by the ship’s cargo officer and
    would effectively show special loads such as
    heavy lifts, hazardous cargoes, any valuable
    cargo, in addition to all other commodities
    being shipped.
     Additional information, such as the following,
    generally appears on most plans:
     i) Name of the vessel.
    ii) Name of the Master.
    iii) List of loading ports.
    iv) List of discharging ports, in order of call.
    v) Sailing draughts.
    vi) Tonnage load breakdown.
    vii) Hatch tonnage breakdown.
    viii) Voyage number.
     ix) Total volume of empty space remaining.
    x) List of dangerous cargo, if any.
    xi) List of special cargo, if any.
    xii) Statement of deadweight, fuel, stores,
    water etc.
    xiii) Details of cargo separations.
    xiv) Recommended temperatures for the
    carriage of various goods.
    xv) Chief Officer’s signature.
    CARGO INFORMATION:
     Means appropriate information relevant to
    the cargo and with its stowage segregation
    and securing which should specify in
    particular, the precautions necessary for the
    carriage of that cargo by sea.
    CARGO SECURING MANUAL
     A manual that is pertinent to an individual ship and
    which will show the lashing points and details of
    the securing of relevant cargoes carried by the
    vessel. It is a ships reference which specifies the
    on-board securing arrangements for cargo units
    including vehicles, containers and other entities.
    The securing examples are based on the transverse,
    longitudinal and vertical forces which may arise
    during adverse weather conditions at sea. The
    manual is drawn up to the standard contained in
    Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) Circular number
    MSC/Circ. 745
