CODE OF SAFE PRACTICE FOR CARGO STOWAGE AND SECURING (CSS CODE)
Background
The
accelerations acting on a ship in a seaway result from a combination of
longitudinal, vertical and predominantly transverse motions. The forces generated by these accelerations
leading to the majority of securing problems. The danger arising from...
