B.transverse members of the ships frame which support the decks

C.longitudinal beams in the extreme bottom of a ship from which the ship's ribs start

D.longitudinal angle bars fastened to a surface for strength

Transverse frames are more widely spaced on a ship that is designed with the ______．

A.Centerline system of framing

B.Isometric system of framing

C.Longitudinal system of framing

Why are most break bulk vessels built with the transverse framing system rather than the longitudinal system?

A.The transverse system is more resistant to hog and sag stresses

B.The numerous longitudinal frames cause excessive broken stowage

C.The transverse system provides better support to the varying cargo densities on a break bulk vessel.

D.The deep web frames interfere with the stowage of break bulk cargo

D.the single skin side shell between topside and hopper tanks，and the cross deck strips，hatch covers and coamings

Aboard a vessel, dividing the sum of the transverse moments by total weight yields the vessel’s

A.vertical moments

B.transverse position of the center of gravity

C.inclining moments

D.righting moments
