Draft Mark Correction Calculator

This document provides calculations to correct draught measurements taken at the aft perpendicular, midships, and forward perpendicular based on the apparent trim of a ship as measured between the aft and forward draught marks. It lists the draught measurements taken and distances between measurement points, and calculates the correction factors to apply to each measurement based on the apparent trim and distances between measurement points and draught marks.

CORRECTION OF DRAUGHTS TO PERPENDICULARS AND MIDSHIPS

LBP FP

AP

Df D FP
DM Dm
D AP Da

Midship

AP = aft perpendicular
FP = forward perpendicular
LBP = length between perpendicular 279
D AP = draught at aft perpendicular 7.921
Da = draught at aft draught marks 7.92
D M = draught at midships 7.422
Dm = draught at midships draught marks 7.42
D FP = draugfht at forward perpendicular 7.141
Df = draught at forward draught marks 7.14

distance D FP to Df 0.52

distance D AP to Da 0.44

distance D M to D m 0.65

Forward correction = ( apparent trim x distance D FP to Df ) / distance Da to Df 0.001454

Aft correction = ( apparent trim x distance D AP to Da ) / distance Da to Df 0.00123

Midships correction = ( apparent trim x distance D M to Dm ) / distance Da to Df 0.001817

Where:
apparent trim = difference between Da and Df 0.78

distance Da to Df 279
