Plimsoll load line mark

English to Arabic Bus/Financial Economics Industry anlysis, company valuation
The purpose of a load line is to ensure that a ship has sufficient freeboard and thus sufficient reserve buoyancy. The freeboard on commercial vessels is measured between the uppermost continuous deck and the waterline and this must not be less than the freeboard marked on the Load Line Certificate issued to that ship. All commercial ships, other than in exceptional circumstances, have a load line symbol painted amidships on each side of the ship and this symbol must also be permanently marked so that if the paint wears off it can still be seen. The load line makes it easy for anyone to see whether a ship has been overloaded.

This symbol, also called an international load line or Plimsoll line, indicates the maximum safe draft, and therefore the minimum freeboard for the vessel in various operating conditions.
In the 1860s, due to the increasing losses of ships due to overloading a British MP, Samuel Plimsoll, took up the load line cause. A Royal commission on unseaworthy ships was set up in 1872 and finally in 1876 the United Kingdom Merchant Shipping Act made the load line mark compulsory although the positioning of the mark was not fixed by law until 1894. In 1906, laws were passed requiring foreign ships visiting British ports to be marked with a load line. However it was not until 1930 (The 1930 Load Line Convention) that there was international agreement for universal application of load line regulations.

علامة بيلمسول لبيان خط غمر المياه للسفينة تبعا لحمولتها

The Plimsoll line is the mark on the hull of a ship that shows where the waterline is when the ship is loaded to full capacity according to the condition of the water at the point of loading.


Plimsoll lineThe official name is the International Load Line, since the Plimsoll line is an international load limit standard. It was named after Samuel Plimsoll, who instigated the passage of the Merchant Shipping Act of 1875, which established the marking of a load line on every cargo ship. This was to prevent the practice of launching deliberately overloaded coffin ships, which were intended to sink so that the owner could collect the insurance money.

The letters on the load line have the following meanings:

علامة بليمسول " حد الشحن الآمن" " خط الشحن الآمن"


وفي عام ١٩٣٠، قبلت جميع الدول البحرية الرئيسية ما تمّ سنّه من قواعد في المؤتمر العالمي للتحميل، لحماية
السفن من الشحن الزائد عن طاقتها. وتتطلّب هذه الأحكام أن تكون للسفن خطوط مطليّة على جوانبها، لتبيِّن العمق المناسب للشحن الآمن في مختلف أوقات السنة وفي مختلف المياه. وعندما تغطس السفينة المحمّلة بالبضائع إلى عمق على النحو الذي توضحه الخطوط، تكون السفينة قد بلغت الحمولة القصوى، وتسمّى تلك الخطوط علامات بلمسول، حيث أطلق عليها اسم صمويل بلمسول البرلماني البريطاني الذي عمل على تبنّي تلك الخطوط في القانون البريطاني للملاحة التجارية عام ١٨٧٦. وفي عام ١٩٦٦، توصّلت الدول البحرية الرئيسية في العالم، إلى الاتفاق على أحكام جديدة، ارتفعت بموجبها حدود أو خطوط شحن السفينة إلى مستوى يضمن شحناً آمناً. ولقد عكست القواعد الجديدة التطوّر في تصميم السفن وفي بنائها منذ عام ١٩٣٠.
