Abstract
This paper considers inadequacies in the formulas for ship global hull strength currently approved by members of the International Associations of Classification Societies (IACS). Citing the results of several experimental and numerical studies, the author proposes modifications to the Rules formulas on ship hull vertical bending moments. Wave loading on the hull under steady wave conditions is studied for long-term ship operations, and the existing fatigue strength standards for hull longitudinals are also examined.
