In the future, the following points to keep in mind conducting a draft survey are as follows:
| ‡@Outline of Draft Survey | A large amount of dry bulk cargo is usually transported by vessel. The quantity of cargo loaded on the vessel is generally determined by a draft survey. |
|---|---|
| ‡AArchimedes' principle | The basic theory of the draft survey is the principle of Archimedes. This principle is simple, it is a law of nature recognized by everyone in the world, so it is internationally convincing about the survey results obtained based on it. |
| ‡BReading of Draft Mark | In bad weather, reading vessel's draft marks is annoying. A draft reading device has been developed to improve it even a little. |
| ‡CDensity measurement | The density of the seawater in which a vessel floats varies depending on the sea area and the season. Also, the final value will differ depending on the type of hydrometer. |
