About this file
This is an Intact Stability Analysis document for the NOAA Ship Thomas Jefferson, a near-coastal hydrographic research vessel operated by the Marine Operations Center.
The analysis demonstrates compliance with intact stability standards of 46 CFR Subchapter U through comprehensive evaluation of four stability criteria: weather (46 CFR 170.170), righting energy (46 CFR 170.173), lifting operations (46 CFR 173.020), and towing operations (46 CFR 173.095). The vessel has principal dimensions of 208 feet overall length, 190 feet between perpendiculars, 45-foot beam, and maximum draft of 14 feet at summer load line with displacement of 2,116 long tons in seawater. Required metacentric height (GM) values are provided across draft ranges from 9 to 14 feet, with both zero-trim and 3-foot stern-trim conditions evaluated. The weather criterion establishes minimum GM requirements based on wind pressure calculations using the formula P = 0.005 + (LBP/14200)². Righting energy analysis confirms the vessel exceeds all paragraph b criteria from 46 CFR 170.173, with angles of maximum righting arm exceeding 30 degrees at higher displacements. Lifting operations guidance specifies safe working loads for forward and aft cranes (maximum 9,000 lbs at various boom angles up to 82 degrees), while towing criterion establishes minimum required GM based on propeller shaft horsepower (2,168 hp), propeller diameter (8.83 feet), and vertical distance to towing bitts (30.47 feet). The analysis employs the General HydroStatics (GHS) computer program using geometry file Jefferson.gf7, with detailed tabular data and graphs presenting maximum allowable vertical center of gravity (KG/VCG) across all evaluated conditions.

2. GENERAL NOTES
1. The following analysis demonstrates compliance with intact stability standards of 46 CFR Subchapter U after conversion to meet NOAA�s mission needs as a near‐coastal, hydrographic research vessel.
2. The General HydroStatics (GHS) computer program from Creative Systems Inc, Port Townsend WA was used to calculate required hydrostatic properties. Reference (e) is the geometry file used. The forecastle is included in the geometry file as a buoyant volume.
3. Unless identified otherwise all drafts, depths, and other vertical coordinates are measured from the baseline.
3. MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE VCG
The available GM calculated in each condition must be greater than the required GM values listed and plotted below, for the particular mean draft in sea water. These required GM values have not been corrected for a free surface moment. Therefore, the free surface moment for all tanks must be calculated.
See the Operating Instruction for restrictions on tank loading.
Required GM values appearing blue in the table come from the 3‐foot trim case; all other required GM values come from the zero trim case. Righting energy performance was only evaluated at zero trim.

3.2 RIGHTING ENERGY
In accordance with reference (b), if the angle of maximum righting arm is less than 30° at all expected loading conditions, paragraph b applies. However, if that angle is more than 30°, then the higher (more lenient) maximum VCG of paragraphs b or c may be applied. According to paragraph b, the ship must have sufficient metacentric height (GM) so that ALL of the following are satisfied.
(1) initial (upright) metacentric height greater than or equal to 0.49 feet
(2) a righting arm (GZ) of at least 0.66 feet at an angle of heel equal to or greater than 30°
(3) the angle of maximum righting arm greater than or equal to 25°
(4) area under the righting arm curve up to 30° greater than or equal to 10.3 ft‐°
(5) area under the righting arm curve up to 40° OR the downflooding angle, whichever is less, greater than or equal to 16.9 ft‐°
(6) area under the righting arm curve from 30° to 40° OR the downflooding angle, whichever is less, greater than or equal to 5.6 ft‐°
Since the margin on paragraph b, limit 3, exceeds 5° at higher displacements, those angles of maximum righting arm exceed 30°. Therefore, maximum KG for righting energy is taken from paragraph b.

3.3 LIFTING
Paragraph (c) of 46 CFR 173.020 offers relief from specific righting arm requirements if a vessel�s hull aspect ratios fall within specified ranges at its deepest operating draft. While Length/Beam and Draft/Depth fall within their respective range limits, Beam/Depth = 45 ft / 22.75 ft = 2.043 and does not meet the minimum value of 3.4 for 173.020(c) to apply.
Safe working loads for forward and aft cranes are shown below. Both hook load maximum heights above deck are 52 feet. The forward crane has higher lateral offset of its axis of rotation from the ship centerline (8.6 feet) and therefore higher reach off centerline. This was the only crane considered to be operating at one time.

In accordance with reference (c) (46 CFR 173.005) intact stability standards of 46 CFR 173, Subpart B‐‐Lifting, apply only if the maximum heeling moment due to the hook load of any onboard lifting device is greater than or equal to the following:
HM <= 0.67 (W) (GM) (f / B) eq (1)
Further, in accordance with reference (c) (46 CFR 173.007) the hook load must be applied at the end of the boom. This increases the vertical moment by an amount equal to the hook load times the vertical distance lifted.
We assume the lifted weight is already on board on the main deck, even though the outboard distance puts it outboard of the ship. Thus the vertical distance lifted is the maximum height of the boom end above the deck.
Increased vertical moment will decrease metacentric height by an amount equal to the vertical moment divided by displacement. Thus we have:
GM = GMr ‐ VM / W eq (2)
Substituting eq (2) into eq (1), and solving for GMr yields the following expression for minimum required metacentric height without hook load included.
GMr = [ (HM / ( 0.67 (f / B) )) + VM ] / W eq (3)
Heeling moment and vertical moment from the hook load vary with boom topping angle, so the angle which generated the greatest GMr was calculated for each combination of draft and trim. The highest GMr values occurred at a boom reach of 45 feet at all drafts and both trims, and vary between 0.574 feet at 9 feet of LCF draft and 0.463 feet at 14 feet of LCF draft. Intact stability standards of 46 CFR 173, Subpart B‐‐Lifting do not apply to any condition of loading with metacentric height greater than this minimum.

3.4 TOWING
In accordance with reference (d) (46 CFR 173.095(b)), to satisfy the towline pull criterion the ship�s transverse metacentric height (GMt) must be equal to or greater than the following:
Minimum GMt Required (GMr) = (N) (P x D) 2/3
(s) (h)
(K) (W) (f / B)
N = number of propellers = 1; P = shaft horsepower per shaft = 85% of installed brake horsepower = 2168 hp; D
= propeller diameter = 8.83 feet (per 245‐6634744C, Propeller Diagram); s = fraction of the propeller circle cylinder which would be intersected by the rudder if turned 45° from the ship�s centerline = 0.61 (calculated from 562‐6634741D, Rudder Arrangement & Details); h = vertical distance from propeller shaft centerline at rudder to towing bitts (considered at starboard aft C‐frame davit in vertical position) = 30.47 feet (measured on
801‐6634608D, Outboard Profile); W = displacement in LT sea water; f = minimum freeboard along the length of the ship in feet; B = molded beam = 45 feet; D = molded depth = 22.75 feet; and K = 38 for these English units.
Displacement and minimum freeboard are calculated at each combination of draft and trim, assuming zero heel.
Towing heeling moment at 0° heel = HMmt = (1) (2168 x 8.83) 2/3
(0.61) (30.47) / (38) = 700.28 ft‐LT; varies by cosine at other heel angles.
