Sheer ( Regulation 38(12) ) (IACS interpretation LL.16)

 Where the height of a superstructure is less than standard, paragraph 12 may be applied, except that the superstructure deck should be not less than the minimum height of the superstructure above the virtual sheer curve at any point.

 For this purpose "y" should be taken as the difference between the actual and minimum height of the superstructure at the end of sheer.
