LOADSTAR - Introduction General Particular Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 6General Particulars IMO Number:9332250 Vessel Name ..................................................:APL Oakland Type ...............................................................:Container Vessel Port of registry ...............................................:St. Johns Class society...................................................:Germanischer Lloyd Builder ...........................................................:New Century Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. Xiagang Street Xingang CN-214 514 Jingjiang China Hull Number ..................................................:0242001 Vessel Particulars LOADSTAR - Introduction Longitudinal strength and stability Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 7Testing of the Loading Computer We recommend that you test your loading computer frequently to ensure that it calculates correctly. To do so, load the test conditions and compare the results with the approved test conditions. Longitudinal Strength and Stability Longitudinal Strength The primary purpose of the loading computer is to secure that the limits for longitudinal strength given by the classification society are not exceeded. There are limits for seagoing conditions as well as harbour conditions. You switch between these limits using key. You can see the limits by choosing the Limits topic under the View topic in the menu bar. Each time a weight is entered into LOADSTAR a complete new calculation of the condition is performed. After having found the draughts, heel and trim, the shear force, bending moments and the torsion are calculated. The calculation results are compared to the limits. The actual values on each of the calc stations can be obtained from the Limits view mentioned before. You are also able to see the relative use of the limits on the stations represented as a percentage of the max allowable value. If the calculations exceed 100% the digits showing the shear force, bending moment and torsion max percentages in the Condition Status view are colored red. Further the strength indicator in the Status bar in the bottom of the LOADSTAR windows turn red. Non of these checks require any other operator action than typing in the weight item. Intact Stability To secure that the intact stability fulfils the IMO requirements in all conditions the LOADSTAR checks these requirements every time weight is entered into the program. These checks do not require any interaction from the operator. If one of the requirements is not fulfilled the stability indicator in the Status bar in the bottom of the LOADSTAR windows turns red. Further the digits showing GM in the Condition Status view are colored red if the GM required is not fulfilled. To see the actual GZ curve choose the topic GZ curve from View in the menu bar.LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 8A Guided Tour Purpose The purpose of this section is to explain the functionality of LOADSTAR to first time users. We will guide you through the basic steps of using LOADSTAR. You are going on a test voyage from Port AAA to Port BBB. While staying at Port AAA you are going to plan the condition of the vessel in LOADSTAR. We suggest that you follow the examples by actually doing the exercises on your own PC, thus gaining hands-on experience with the program. You are requested to follow the instructions as carefully as possible, as you will enter data into your own LOADSTAR program. LOADSTAR then calculates the current values of strength and stability of the condition. Note: This Guided Tour is a general introduction to LOADSTAR, whereas the Reference part in Part II of the manual deals specifically with your vessel. Therefore there can be some minor differences between how the system is described in this Guided Tour and how it works on your vessel. If you need advice concerning your vessel, use the Reference part of the manual in Part II. You will try to work with tanks and containers, and create port codes. Steps The Guided Tour includes these steps: 1.Where to Start 2.Filling the Tanks of the Vessel 3.Creating Ports 4.Loading the Containers 5.Quick Loading 6.Ballasting the Vessel 7.Saving the Condition 8.Loading the Condition LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 9Step 1: Where to Start Start the LOADSTAR program. If LOADSTAR has not been installed, please refer to Recommended hardware Pentium 3.0 GHz or higher processor 1 GB RAM 1024 X 768 pixels resolution Monitor DVD Drive HP Deskjet Printer Required software Windows XP UK version How to Install LOADSTAR on page 4. If LOADSTAR has already been installed, click on the LOADSTAR icon. When you open LOADSTAR, there are no open dialog boxes or views. First, you have to open a new or an existing condition. In this instance, you will work with a new condition.Choose File - New from the menu or click the icon on the tool bar. A view with the vessel particulars opens. This is the condition view. Loading Condition Warning Indications In the status bar at the bottom of your screen, warning indications are displayed. There are indications for strength and stability warnings: LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 10 If you exceed a Class Society limit you get a red warning, and if the condition exceeds the user limits, you get a yellow warning. If everything is in order, you see a green indication. If you want more details, choose View - Condition Status from the menu. A view opens where you can see displacement, deadweight, etc. for the actual condition. You can also see which values exceed the permissible values. LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 11Next Step You can now start planning the loading of the vessel. Choose Tank - Tabular View from the menu. A dialog box opens. Please go to step 2 on the next page.LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 12 Step 2: Filling the Tanks of the Vessel As described under step 1, you display the Tabular Tank View by choosing Tabular View from the Tank menu. Below is an example only, and does not show the Tabular Tank View of your LOADSTAR program. Tabular Tank View The Tabular Tank View is used for entering the weight, volume, density etc for the tanks in the vessel. The Tabular Tank View is designed as a tree structure. Tanks are divided into groups e.g. ballast, fresh water, fuel etc. and each group is holding information about the tanks individually. The program is default set to display short tank names. By right clicking somewhere in the active window you can choose the long tank name from the pop-up menu. The tank groups can be expanded or collapsed by clicking the + or - sign to the left of the group name or by pressing the + or - key on the numeric keyboard while the tank name is highlighted. When a tank group is collapsed, only the subtotal for the group is displayed.Inserting values When a tank group is expanded the tank information is arranged as table in columns and rows. To move the cursor from field to field inside the table you can click the fields or use the arrow keys on the keyboard. Only fields where in-data is relevant for the tanks can be selected. When a field is selected it becomes highlighted and you can start typing the values for the field. If you regret the value that is typed in you can click the undo LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 13button in the tool bar as long as you have not moved to another field. When pressing Enter the cursor automatically moves to the next field in the column. To change the online symbol for a tank you can either click the symbol or while the online column is highlighted press the spacebar to shift between on and off. When a tank has been updated by online communication a tank radar symbol is displayed next to the tank name otherwise a user symbol is displayed. Example on how to enter values in a tank Choose a tank and click on e.g. the weight field for that particular tank. The field becomes highlighted, and you can now enter a value (e.g. 10 [t]). Press Enter and the value is inserted and the cursor has moved to the field below. You can also fill the tanks of the vessel using the Graphical Tank View. Please refer to Step 6: Ballasting the Vessel on page 21 for guidance. User Settings The Tabular Tank View is designed to be as flexible as possible. The sequence and the size of the columns can be arranged as you wish. Text font, text colors and background colors can be modified to match the preferences of the user. Changes are made byDrag and Drop or by selecting items from the right click menu which can be opened by clicking with the right mouse button on the Tabular Tank View. Please note that all settings can be restored to standard settings by selecting Restore Window Layout from the Window menu. Moving Columns Click on the column to be moved and while keeping the mouse button pressed move the cursor to the position where you want the column to be placed. Release the mouse button and the column is moved. Changing Column Size and Hiding Columns Place the cursor on a separator line in the column header. When the cursor symbol changes click the left mouse button. While keeping the mouse button pressed move the cursor until the column has the desired size and release the mouse button. To hide a column, decrease the size of the column until it disappears. When a column is completely hidden, its fields are skipped when moving the cursor by means of the arrow keys. To resize all columns at a time select Fit Columns from the right click menu. Print Tabular Tank View To print the tabular tank view as it appears on the screen simply click the printer icon in the toolbar or select Print from the file menu. The Right Click Menu When clicking on the Tabular Tank view with the right mouse button a pop-up menu is opened. Below the items in this menu are described: LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 14Fit Colums To resize all columns to their normal and full size select Fit Columns. Print Tank Info To print a tank information report, select the tank group to be printed from the pop-up menu and the LOADSTAR Tank Information Print dialog box appears. From there you can point out the information to be included or skipped and whether you want a print for a single group or for all groups. Online Check Type This menu item is used to change the appearance of the online symbol. Show Short Name Switch between short and long tank names. The program is default set to show short names. Choose Font From this menu item you can access the standard Font dialog box where you can select the font and the style and size of the font for best appearance. Colors Both text colors and background colors can be changed individually for each topic in the view. To restore to standard colors select Restore Default Colors from the submenu. LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 15 Step 3: Creating Ports As described under step 2, you display the Port Code dialog box by choosing Port Codes from the Settings menu. Port Code Dialog Box In this dialog box it is possible to create and update destination and loading ports. You can give every port an abbreviation consisting of up to three letters and a color, which makes the loading plan easier to survey (this is not mandatory). The upper part of the dialog box shows port code, port name and port color for the current port and the lower part shows a spreadsheet with the created ports. Define Port Information In order to define a port click the New button and start typing the port code, which consists of a three-letter abbreviation. Create a port called Port A. The abbreviation for this port will be AAA. The abbreviation must be written in the Normal field (the port code field). When you have entered the port code abbreviation, press the Tab key twice. Now the cursor jumps to the Name field. Type in the name of the port, Port A, and press the Tab key. You can also choose a color for Port A: LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 16Click the Port Color push button. Now another dialog box opens where you can choose between different colors Choose for instance a green color by clicking on the required color with the mouse. (Hint: You can also use the arrow keys to find the green color and use the space bar to mark it). Click OK or press Enter. The color in the "Port Color" field has changed to the chosen color. Press Close to exit. Now define another port called Port B (BBB). It is done in the same way as with Port A. Make this one light blue. Define another two ports: Port C (CCC) and port D (DDD) and assign colors to the ports.Edit Port Information In order to edit the port information select the port, which you wish to edit by clicking the push button with the port name. Type in your corrections. When the port information has been altered satisfactory click on another port, click New or click Close. Import / Export of Port Code Tables LOADSTAR is designed to handle multiple port code tables. This provides the user with the option to create port code tables matching the ports of call for the actual trade or leg of the voyage. To Import (or Export) port code tables select "Port Code (*.PCD)" in the "Files of Types" ("Save as Type") list box in the Import (Export) dialog box. When a LOADSTAR condition is saved the name of the port code file is saved along with the condition. Next time the condition is opened LOADSTAR automatically imports that particular port code file. This import can result in a replacement of the port code file currently being used in LOADSTAR. The replaced port code table will be saved automatically prior to the import operation. When LOADSTAR starts up the last port code table used will be imported automatically. If no port code tables are found when LOADSTAR starts up an empty port code file named WINLOAD.PCD is automatically generated. This file is located in the BIN folder where LOADSTAR is installed. How to attach a port code table to a condition file: 1.Open the LOADSTAR condition 2.Create or import the port code table 3.Export the port code file4.Save the LOADSTAR condition The name of the port code table is shown in the title of the port code dialog box.Next Step You are ready for loading containers on board the vessel. Choose Container - Bay View from the menu. Now a view opens. Please go to step 4 on the next page.LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 17 Step 4: Loading the Containers As described under step 3, you display the following window by choosing Bay View from the Container menu. Below is an example only, and does not show the Bay View of your LOADSTAR program. Bay View On the Bay View you can define and update the loading of containers. Here the containers are entered at cell level. First take a look at the Bay View. Here you find a plan of each bay in the vessel. The first bay plan shown on the Bay View displays bay No. 01. Upper Part In the upper part of the bay plan you see how the containers are placed on deck and in the hold. At the top of each container stack, a line of numbers indicates the row numbers and the used height/free height respectively. Below each row you see the total weight for the row. The line to the extreme left indicates the tier numbers. Lower Part In the lower part of the view you see a bay selector. Here you can choose the bay you want to work with. You can switch between the bays by clicking on the wanted bay on the bay selector or using the Page Up and Page Down keys. LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 18Load Containers Now you are going to load some containers onto the vessel. Move the cursor to the cell in bay 01, row 01, tier 82. Press Enter and the dialog box opens. Here you can enter information about the containers. The first information to be typed is the container weight. The height of the container is set to the standard value of 8'6", but can be changed to for instance 9'6". The destination is the three-letter code from the port list above. Both the height and the port codes are selected from a drop down list. You can only select between the heights and ports defined. Type the following information in the window: The container is to be placed in bay 01, row 01 and tier 82: Weight 20.0 tons Height of 9'6" Destination is BBB The loading port is AAA Press Enter The window is removed and the new container weight is displayed. Note that the cell has turned light blue to match the destination BBB. Note also that the weight and height of the stack have changed.Move a Container Try to move a container. While the cursor is still pointing on the container just loaded, press Shift+Delete. Now you have removed the container to the clipboard. Using the arrow keys you can move the cursor to the cell to the right of the one you worked on before. Press Shift+Insert, and the container is inserted into that cell. Remove a Container It is also easy to remove a container. While the cursor is on the container just moved, press the Delete key. The container will then be removed. You can also do this with the mouse, but this is not dealt with here. Next Step In order to make the operating of LOADSTAR as quick as possible, there is an easier way to load containers onto a vessel once you are more familiar with the system. This is done by using the commands H (horizontal) and V (vertical). Please go to step 5 on the next page.LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 19 Step 5: Quick Loading As described under step 4, you can use the commands H (horizontal) and V (vertical) to load containers onto the vessel very fast.

Below is an example only, and does not show the Bay View and Quick Cont Info for Position dialog of your LOADSTAR program. Quick Editing of Container Dialog Box The H command Place the cursor in the cell to the extreme left of tier 82 using the arrow keys. Type H. The above dialog box now opens. In the upper field of the window you can type the container weight. In the lower field the destination of the container last worked on is displayed. This destination can be updated by selecting a new one from the list. Now the destination is --- because no destination is selected. Choose BBB. Type the container weight again: 20.0 tons. Click the Update push button or press Enter. The cursor will then move to the next cell to the right of the container, and a new dialog box will open. Type 18.1 tons in it. Fill the whole tier with container weights that do not exceed 24.0 tons. When you have finished, click the Close push button or press Esc. The dialog box closes. Note that the new weights and heights of the rows are summed up. LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 20 The V command The V command works vertically, just as the H command works horizontally. To try the V command, start in the cell in row 01, tier 10. Place the cursor here using the arrow keys. Type V. The same dialog box as before opens. Enter the container weight. This time, choose the destination CCC. The dialog box moves to the cell on top of the one you started with. Note that the color of the first cell has now turned to the color you assigned to Port CCC. Fill the whole row 10 in the hold with containers. When you have finished, click the Close push button or press Esc. The dialog box closes. Note that the row height and weight have changed. The height number shows the clearance between the hatch cover and the uppermost container in the row. Moving between Bays It is possible to go from one bay to another using the bay selector and the Page Up and Page Down keys. Now you are free to leaf through the bayplans of the Bay View by means of these keys and the bay selector. However, do not change anything. Next Step Now you have tried planning the loading of containers. Next, the ballast must be planned. To do this, first close the Bay View, and then choose Tank - Graphical View from the menu. Please go to step 6 on the next page.LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 21 Step 6: Ballasting the Vessel As described under step 5, you display the Graphical Tank View by choosing Graphical View from the Tank menu. Below is an example only, and does not show the Graphical Tank View of your LOADSTAR program. Graphical Tank View The Graphical Tank View is used when updating the ballast and other tanks while the ballasting is being planned. In this Guided Tour you are only requested to update the ballast tanks. When you open the Graphical Tank View, LOADSTAR also opens the Condition Status View and the Stress Curve View. Condition Status View The Condition Status View shows weight, trim/draft, GM and limit information. Stress Curve View The Stress Curve View shows curves for bending moment, shear force and torsion moment for the entire vessel, shown in percentage of the limits. The horizontal centre line indicates 0 per cent, and the dotted lines indicate 25, 50, 75 and 100 per cent respectively. The vertical dotted lines represent the frames of which the longitudinal strength is calculated. Curve Names In the bottom of the view you can see the names of the curves. You can select whether you want the curves for shear force (SF), bending moments (BM) and LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 22torsion moments (TM) to be displayed in the diagram. The values shown next to the text are the current SF, BM and TM percentages of the actual limits. Curve Colors Each curve is easily identified since it matches the color of the curve name. The red-colored SF name, for example, indicates that the red-colored curve in the diagram is the shear-force curve. Switching Curves on/off To switch off a curve, click on its name and watch the curve disappear from the diagram. Click once more to switch it on again. Harbour/Sea Mode You can also switch between harbour and sea mode by pressing F4 or by clicking once with the right mouse key. A pop-up menu is displayed, and here you can select the mode you want. The Ballast TanksThe Graphical Tank View is displayed below the Stress Curve View and it shows a graphical representation of the tanks for each tank group. Here the ballast tanks are shown. The heading shows the actually shown tank group. When you open the Graphical Tank View, the ballast tanks are always shown first. In this section we will only refer to the ballast tanks. Updating other tanks is performed in the same way. In order to improve the graphical view of the Graphical Tank View the entire width of the view is used to display the tanks, even though the location of the tanks does not completely match the Stress Curve View above. To compensate for this, tank marks are displayed in the Stress Curve View. The two arrow-symbols represent the forward and aft boundaries of the tank and the up arrow symbol represents the actual centre of gravity for the tank. For each tank, the name and current weight are shown. Below the tanks, information is summed up for all tanks in the group: Weight and centre of gravity for the tank group. You can switch between the various tank groups by using the Page Up and Page Down keys. You can also click once with the right mouse button and select the wanted tank group in the list shown in the pop-up menu. Editing the Tanks To start editing a tank, double-click the tank with the mouse. A dialog box opens where you can fill in information about the tank. You can also use the keyboard to open the edit dialog. Select the tank by means of the arrow keys. Press Enter to open the edit dialog or just start typing the new weight and the edit dialog will open automatically. Use the Tab key to move around between the fields that can be updated or click the field that you want to edit with the mouse. Apart from the name of the tank, the following information is shown in the window: Weight, Volume Sounding/Ullage, % fill, Density, Last Update, Max. Vol., FSM, LCG, VCG and TCG. Furthermore two checkboxes are available namely Online and Use Max FSM. Only the fields Weight, Volume, Sounding/Ullage, %fill and Density can be updated. Whenever one of these fields has been changed and the cursor is moved to another field, LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 23LOADSTAR recalculates the corresponding values of the tank contents including centre of gravity and FSM. The Use Max FSM checkbox enables you to apply the maximum possible effect of the free surface moment for the tank to the condition, disregarding the actually filling of the tank. Please note that if MAX FSM is selected the color shade used to indicate the % filling of a tank is different from the color normally used. The Online checkbox is used to include or exclude a tank from the number of tanks to be updated by the online interface. If the online interface is not available or the tank has not been configured in the Online Options dialog, the checkbox is grayed. The Last Update indicates the date and time for the last update of the tank and whether the tank has been updated by the user or by the online interface.

LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 24Note when multiple tank operation is no longer required you must open the Tank Input Settings dialog and click the "Input for selected tank only" button to return to standard settings. You have now tried to ballast the vessel. You can close the views or you can continue with the views open. When ready to proceed, please go to step 7 on the next page. LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 25 Step 7: Saving the Condition Now you are ready to save the condition you just created. Name the condition by choosing File - Condition Info from the menu. Condition Information Dialog Box A dialog box opens where you can enter title, author, etc. Fill in the title and author fields. Call the condition: "Departure AAA - BBB" and enter you name or initials in the author field. Click OK. Save You can now save the condition. Choose File - Save As from the menu. A dialog box opens where you can enter a file name for the condition and choose a directory to place the condition in. Write GUIDTOUR and click OK. Now LOADSTAR will save the condition on your hard disk. The vessel has been loaded according to the condition, which has been tested by the use of LOADSTAR. It is off to sea, heading for the next port. Please go to step 8 on the next page. LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 26 Step 8: Loading the Condition As described under step 7, you saved the condition and departed for the next port. We now assume that the vessel has arrived in port. The containers marked for this destination are unloaded. Now it is time to start planning the next condition. This is done on the basis of the condition made in the previous port. To find the condition you saved before. Choose File - Open from the menu. Now a dialog box opens, where you can enter the file (in this case a condition) you want to load. Select the file name GUIDTOUR.CND. Click OK. The saved condition will now be loaded by LOADSTAR. You can use the saved condition to plan a new condition for the next voyage. Start by skipping all the containers that have been unloaded in Port BBB. Choose Container - Search Container from the menu. Below is an example only, and does not show the Container Search Criteria dialog of your LOADSTAR program. Search Container Dialog Box A dialog box opens where you can enter search criteria for the containers. Move the cursor to the Destination Port field and select Port BBB from the drop down list. Now click the Search push button. A new dialog box opens where all the containers that fulfil the search criteria are displayed. Mark all the containers in the list and click the Delete push button. Now the containers to Port BBB have been skipped. Now you can want to go back again to the tabular tank view and start updating the tanks again. This Guided Tour, however, will not take you any further, so feel free to proceed on your own. End of Guided Tour This concludes the Guided Tour of LOADSTAR. You have now been led through the most frequently used functions of the program. In order to get more information about the LOADSTAR - Introduction A Guided Tour Container Vessel December 2007 Revision 27system please refer to the reference part of the manual (LOADSTAR - Users Guide Part II). LOADSTAR - Introduction Error and Warning Messages Container Vessel - December 2007 Revision 28Error and Warning Messages Errors Like in any other Windows program you will be notified when an error occurs. LOADSTAR will show what has caused the error. Warnings You can also get warnings. Sometimes you will get a message box, where you can decide whether to continue or to cancel the operation that has caused the warning. Please be aware that in some cases you can decide to ignore the warnings, so you should be careful with this option. If for instance you import a BAPLIE file, you can choose OK to All or Cancel to All for some if the warnings that occur. Some of the warnings are visible in the Status Bar. For instance, any violation of strength and stability will result in an indication in the Status Bar.LOADSTAR - Introduction Maximum Permissible SF, BM and TM Values Container Vessel December 2007 Revision29 Maximum Permissible SF, BM and TM Values Maximum Bending Moment Limits (tonnes * metres) FrameSeagoingHarbour MinimumMaximumMinimumMaximum 135-297729796-4565754057 128-388438869-6441477248 119-531147910-93802108420 114-785970540-146606170805 109-10194106555-200092247299 99-10194195352-301682416483 89-10194280326-318063533537 79-10194280326-318063533537 69-10194280326-285270506565 59-10194250561-198828405708 25-10194130112-115912217064 20-1019449042-72691100438 16-1019416718-3406736351 LOADSTAR -
