Paragraph 13

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The information provided under sub-paragraph (iii) of paragraph 12 above may be supplemented by a graph or tabular statement showing the maximum permissible deadweight moment over a range of draughts which shall cover foreseeable operating conditions. At any given draught this maximum permissible deadweight moment value is the total vertical moment, about a convenient base line, of all the component weights of the total deadweight which, at that draught, will ensure minimum compliance with the stability criteria requirements of Rule 16 of these Rules. If an allowance for the weight due to icing-up is required this shall be taken into account by a suitable reduction in the permissible moment. Where the stability information is supplied in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph the tabular statement required in accordance with sub-paragraph 12(ii) above shall include the deadweight moment appropriate to each condition and an example shall be added to the stability information to demonstrate the assessment of the stability.
