Question 773 Deck General

The correct answer is C) the lashings are secured to deck pad eyes. When stowing hazardous materials on deck, the cargo must be properly secured using lashings that are attached to designated pad eyes on the deck. This ensures the cargo is held firmly in place and prevents it from shifting or becoming a hazard during the voyage. The other options are not sufficient to safely secure hazardous materials on deck. Dunnage alone (option A) is not enough to prevent cargo movement, and constructing a wooden bin (option D) is not a standard requirement for deck stowage of hazardous materials. Lashing to guard rails (option B) would not provide the same level of security as using dedicated deck pad eyes.
