DOCK WATER ALLOWANCE

Here is quite short but very informative and interesting video lecture giving the basic understanding of of the DWA. First, let me define what is the deck water. We are well aware of the fact that the density of the fresh water equals 1.000 t/cub.m., or we may also say that the relative density of the fresh water is 1. The sea water is having the density of approximately 1.025 t/cub.m., and therefore relative density of the salt water is 1.25.

Any water which lies somewhere between the two above mentioned limits, is commonly called Dock Water. And now we will try and understand subject concept... In short, a good one to refresh your knowledge of you are professional in the industry or learn something if you are a newcomer.
