(choose chapter or problem)

The barge crane of rectangular proportions has a 12-ft by 30-ft cross section over its entire length of 80 ft. If the maximum permissible submergence and list in sea water are represented by the position shown, determine the corresponding maximum safe load w which the barge can handle at the 20-ft extended position of the boom. Also find the total displacement W in long tons of the unloaded barge (1 long ton equals 2240 lb). The distribution of machinery and ballast places the center of gravity G of the barge, minus the load w, at the center of the hull.
