Volumetric heeling moments

Grain carrying bulk carrier cannot heel more than 12°12\degree or deck edge cannot immerse due to shift of grain.

λ0=TassumedSF×Δ \lambda_0 = \frac{ \Tau_{assumed}}{SF \times \Delta}

where T\Tau = Assumed heeling moments due to shift of grain,SF = Stowage factor of the grain and Δ\Delta= Displacement.
