SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHT FEATURES
Draft Survey
SmartCAL-Load provides comprehensive, reliable, and accurate results for your draft surveys. After entering the Ship's Particulars and Hydrostatic Table, simply input data into the yellow cells.
Reports can be exported as PDF files or printed for documentation, filing, and data exchange with other parties. You can export or print individual reports (Initial Draft Survey Report, Interim/Trimming/Draft Check Report, and Final Draft Survey Report) or combine Initial and Final Reports into a single document.
Determine unknown drafts on one side using the list and level hose with the included program.
Users can also store, import, and export draft survey files locally, allowing them to be recalled for future reference.
Dynamic & Static Draft Survey Guide is also provided to determine whether certain condition is either gain or loss.
Auto & Manual Trimming By LCG Method
Compute your trimming cargo figures by Target Draft, Total Target Cargo, or Manual Trimming with your own figures by simply entering the required data in yellow text boxes and clicking the cargo hold number for the desired trimming holds. This feature uses the LCG Method for calculation. You can also adjust the LCG of each hold by estimating the offset from the center of the hold (in meters +/-) if the trimming cargo will not be poured in the center.
Avoid Overdraft
Load your cargo to the required Loadline Draft and easily calculate the Dock Water Allowance (DWA), including sag/hog effects, by clicking the appropriate Loadline Draft Limit.
Resultant Drafts
Resultant Drafts will be shown as Drafts in Perpendiculars and Draft at Draft Marks.
Print the computation results for your reference to determine the Change of Trim (CoT) and monitor the expected drafts per pour.
Trimming Using Trimming Table
Compute your trimming cargo figures by Target Draft, Total Target Cargo using the ship's trimming table, or by calculated Change of Trim using the compartment's LCG and hydrostatic data interpolation, easily computed with this utility.
Resultant Drafts will be shown as Drafts in Perpendiculars and Draft at Draft Marks.
If your calculation or the Change of Trim per 100 Tonnes differs from the cargo surveyor's, you can manually enter the Change of Trim (CoT) by clicking the appropriate textbox. This allows you to double-check your figures with the cargo surveyor for discrepancies.
This utility also offers the option to apply density correction when using the automatic calculation of CoT with the hydrostatic table you have entered. This ensures the accuracy of the cargo load, considering that the trim table is best suited for freshwater density.
For reference, the Trim Table per draft for each compartment is available for use and double-checking. The figures in this interpolation utility are calculated using the compartment's LCG and Hydrostatic Data.
Trimming While Keeping One End Constant
This utility assists in calculating how to trim the vessel while keeping one end constant (Forward or Aft), either by the required weight to load or by the required draft. It automatically calculates where and how much to load or discharge in a specific compartment based on the parameters entered.
This ensures that the draft at the Forward or Aft end remains constant during trimming using one compartment.
