Main control is the station where the engineer
officer controls the engineering functions of a ship.
Main control is normally located below the main deck
inboiler or mhinery spaces.
Each type of ship uses its superstructure spaces
differently; hence, only generalities can be made to
describe them. Some of the spaces that may be found
in the superstructures, in addition to the bridges,
include administration and personnel offices, officers
staterooms (berthing spaces), CPO quarters, a
helicopter hangar, and radar and other electronic
equipment rooms.
