"Watertight means designed and constructed to withstand a static head of water without any leakage" (46 CFR 114.400 and 175.400). This refers to structures that must withstand hydrostatic loading for extended periods of time, including the hull bottom and sides, main deck plating, tanks, and "subdivision bulkheads". The latter are meant to contain the spread of water that enters the hull as a result of hull breach due to collision, grounding, etc. All weldments and penetrations of such structures are subject to strict testing requirements to ensure that no leakage occurs under the particular design conditions of the vessel.
"Weathertight means that water will not penetrate in any sea condition" (46 CFR 114.400 and 175.400). This refers generally to topside structures subject to occasional and short exposure to water on deck, from boarding waves or wind driven rain and spray. Regulations specify arrangement and height for weathertight appurtenances, as well as load and welding specifications, which are generally less stringent than for watertight structures.
A weather tight bulkhead is generally accepted to prevent the ingress of water from the weather side only. A watertight bulkhead is designed to prevent the passage of water from either side under a pressure head and this is normally provided as a rating eg 30 meters or 3 bar. Access and egress must be through equivalent rating doors.
they have the difference or hot or cold weather and the storms they can be bad or not so bad
The difference in temperature between a warm tube misfire and a warm tube misfire in hot weather is the temperature that resulted in the hot weather .
Nothing... 'The Weather Channel' - is the title of the company... weather.com is their website name.
weather is precipitation rain, hail, snow, ice,e.g. weathering is the wearing away of rock
An ecosystem would not be what it is without its climate and weather - think of the difference between a desert and a mountain region.
Japn's wether is cooler then Australia. Because Australia weather is very hott in the summer!
The difference is that climate is weather that's happening over a long period of time. Weather happens like it's happening right now or it happens one day or another, weather isn't like one year or more.
The difference is that climate is weather that's happening over a long period of time. Weather happens like it's happening right now or it happens one day or another, weather isn't like one year or more.
The primary difference between weather and climate is timescale. Weather refers to short-term atmospheric conditions over a short period of time, while climate refers to average weather patterns over a longer period (typically 30 years or more).
the difference between weathering & erosion is quite simple weathering breaks down and erosion carries it away like a blow dryer
harsh winter is really cold whilst normal weather is somehow cold and hot.
