Every loadicator should be tested against the IMO Intact Stability Code example. Run the standard test case:
: A verified desktop application available on the Microsoft Store for learning ship loading, stability, and ballast operations. It is designed for didactic purposes rather than official onboard use.
Contrary to popular belief, "free" does not always mean "illegal or unsafe." Here are the verified channels to obtain loadicator software at zero cost.
For users interested in the technical design and hydrostatic side of loading, DELFTship Free is a standard industry tool.
Below is a breakdown of the risks, what is actually available for free, and safe alternatives for training.
