The insertion of a recommended model for the presentation of permissible
tensions as function of α might be beneficial for a universal information
standard. This uniform presentation will facilitate the circulation and the
familiarization of the operators with the ship and its equipment.
A possible graphic presentation of the permissible tension is here included
as an example, both table and diagram format.

operational, cautionary, and stop work zones (coded respectively "Green", "Yellow"
and "Red" zones)
