The areas of a ship’s water-planes, commencing from the load draft of 24 meters, and taken

at equal distances apart are: 2000, 1950, 1800, 1400, 800, 400, and 100 sq. m., respectively.
The lower area is that of the ship’s outer bottom. Find the displacement in salt water, the
Fresh Water Allowance, and the height of the center of buoyancy above the keel.

Underwater volume = 1/3 x h x total volume function

= 1/3 x 4 x 22300
= 29733.333 m cube
Sw displacement = 29733.3 x 1.025
= 30476.63
TPC = wpa/100 x 1.025
= 2000/100 x 1.025
= 20.5 tonnes per cm
Fwa = displacement/ 4 x tpc
= 30476.63/ 4 x 20.5
Fwa = 371.4mm

kb = (moment about the keel/ volume of displacement) x h

Kb = (summation 2 / summation 1) x h
kb = (87000 /22300) x 4
Kb = 15.6 meters
