Grain - Cargo Displacement Volume

Grain loading capacity from stowage factor (SF) and hold volume - the basis for grain loading plans.

GrainIMSBCVolume
Max grain mass
13,043t
Formula, assumptions, and limits

Typical SF: wheat 1.25, soybean 1.35, corn 1.45, rice bran 1.8. Check IMSBC schedule for bulk density + TML implications. Heavy grain risk bulkhead damage on roll.
