Angle of Repose is the angle between the horizontal
and the slope of the cargo obtained when that cargo is
poured onto the horizontal. The greater the angle-it is
less likely to shift.

Flow Moisture Point is the percentage moisture content (on a
wet basis) at which a flow state develops.
Vessels built specially for the carriage of bulk cargoes and
sufficiently sub-divided are not so highly restricted in their loading
procedures with concentrates as cargo vessels would be.

Moisture Migration is the movement of moisture contained in a
bulk cargo by settling and consolidation of the cargo due to
vibration and ships motion. Water is progressively displaced which
may result in some portions or all of the bulk cargo developing a
flow state.

If the cargo is trimmed, entire level, the maximum load in the lower
hold may be increased by 20% subject in compliance with (a) in the
preceding page.
In holds with a shaft tunnel, lower holds may be loaded to 10% in
excess of the trimmed or untrimmed values subject to compliance with
(a). A shaft tunnel has an extra stiffening effect.
