Paragraphs 3 and 4 (see also regulation 7, paragraph 2)

 In cases where the operational trim range is intended to exceed ± 0.5% of Ls , the original GM limit line should be designed in the usual manner with the deepest subdivision draught and partial subdivision draught calculated at level trim and actual service trim used for the light service draught. Then additional sets of GM limit lines should be constructed on the basis of the full range of trims ensuring that intervals of 1% Ls are not exceeded. The sets of GM limit lines are combined to give one envelope limiting GM curve. The effective trim range of the curve should be clearly stated.
