A good and useful practical publication providing readers with the tips on proper draft surveys including trimming calculations and other matters. The volume has been arranged in six separate chapters each of them covering one particular issue related to the draft surveys of the ships. The book opens with the chapter addressing the six-sided draft - it will give readers some basic introduction to the subject.
The second chapter is dealing with the process of draft surveying in general. The remaining chapters of this publication address the trimming, hogging and sagging of the ship's hull, controlling the drafts of the vessel, and maximum drafts. Though the publication is quite compact and the author does not go too deep in the theory of the process, it covers the most important aspects and mainly concerns with the practical application of the theoretical information.
That is the reason why we can recommend this volume not only to the students of naval architecture and relevant disciplines but also to the practicing specialists such as the marine surveyors, naval architects, and all others - all of them will definitely find the content of the publication useful for their day to day work.
