Question:

Definitions of: 1. angle of repose 2. cargoes which may liquefy 3. flow moisture point

Author: Sophie March



Answer:

1. Angle of repose : means the maximum slope angle of non-cohesive (i.e. free-flowing) granular material. 2. Cargoes which may liquefy: cargoes which contain a certain proportion of fine particles and a certain amount of moisture. They may liquefy if shipped with a moisture content in excess of their transportable moisture limit. 3. Flow moisture point: percentage moisture content (wet mass basis) at which a flow state develops under the prescribed method of test in a representative sample of the material
