General guidance for Containership cargo stowage and planning - Special Container Stowage
When stowing high cube containers on deck, visibility from bridge must be considered in case several high cube containers are in the same stack.
When stowing these Under Deck, Hatch cover clearance must be considered.
Depending on the vessels construction, a slot may need to be kept vacant if more that 1 high cube container is loaded Under Deck.
The stowage of 45 foot containers is restricted by lashing requirements, lashing bridges, Reefer monitoring platforms or other obstructions.
Allowable positions for loading 45’ containers must be carefully checked prior loading.
Other factors should be taken into account before accepting a containership cargo stowage plan :
• Stacking Weights
• Lashing strength
• Dangerous goods stowage and segregation
• Reefer Container Stowage
• Out of Gauge Container Stowage
• 20’ or 40’ or 45’ Compulsory Stowage Locations
• Irregular Stowage of Containers
• Over-stow of Containers
• Hatch Cover Clearance (High cube containers Under Deck )
• Other matters regarding cargo stowage as necessary
