FEATURE OBJECT ATTRIBUTES


Attribute: Underkeel clearance

Acronym: UKCLRN Code:

Camel case: underKeelClearance

Attribute type: Complex


Definition:

The distance between the lowest point of the ship's hull, normally some point on the keel, and the sea bottom ((or the advertised water depth)). It can be expressed with fixed or variable values.

Reference:

Based on IHO Dictionary, S-32, Edition 5 1994, and extended.



Sub-attribute Camel Code Identifier Multiplicity Sequential
UKCFIX underKeelClearanceFixed 0..1 True
UKCVAR underKeelClearanceVariable 0..1 True
OPERAT operation 0..1 True









Remarks:

UKC is either a fixed allowance in feet or metres or a variable allowance calculated from a percentage of the vessel's draught. A further allowance has to be made for ship's roll and pitch.


Comment:

The diagram below indicates the various allowances that need to be considered to establish underkeel clearance.
