You can't get it directly, as one is a measure of volume and the other of mass. Net Tonnage is a measure of volume of a ship, more precisely the volume of a ship that's useful for carrying cargo and passengers. So, essentially you take the internal volume of the ship and remove the volume of the fuel, engine spaces, crew quarters and so on. 100 cubic feet is the volume used for calculating net and gross registered (GRT) tonnage of a ship. Dead weight tonnage is the actual weight of what a ship can carry. To get this, you take the displacement of a fully loaded ship and then subtract from that the displacement of it when totally empty. And since displacement is actually the amount of water displaced by a vessel, it corresponds to the actual weight of the ship.

What is the classification of a ship according to its size?

Under international shipping regulations for manning levels, safety rules and registration fees, the unit of measurement of a ship's size is its GROSS TONNAGE.Gross tonnage is calculated by measuring the ship's volume from keel to funnel to the outside of its hull and applying a mathematical formula. Gross tonnage is different to a ship's deadweight tonnage, displacement tonnage or net tonnage and is in effect the moulded volume of enclosed spaces on board the vessel.


What does gross tonnage on a ship mean?

Gross Tonnage (GT) refers to the volume of all ship's enclosed spaces (from keel to funnel) measured to the outside of the hull framing.

It indicates a vessel's earning space and is a function of the moulded volume of all cargo spaces of the ship.

What causes the transfer of materials between capillaries and tissue fluid?

As blood enters the capillary bed on the arteriole end, the blood pressure in the capillary vessel is greater than the osmotic pressure of the blood in the vessel. The net result is that fluid moves from the vessel to the body tissue.At the middle of the capillary bed, blood pressure in the vessel equals the osmotic pressure of the blood in the vessel. The net result is that fluid passes equally between the capillary vessel and the body tissue. Gasses, nutrients, and wastes are also exchanged at this point.On the venue end of the capillary bed, blood pressure in the vessel is less than the osmotic pressure of the blood in the vessel. The net result is that fluid, carbon dioxide and wastes are drawn from the body tissue into the capillary vessel.
