Abstract

The present work outlines structural strength verification procedures used for construction of double skin 40,000 DWT product tanker being built in Szczecin Shipyard S.A. The verification has been based on following computational procedures required by Lloyd's Register Classification Society and Owner's: 1. Procedure ' ShipRight Structural Design Assessment' [ 1 ]: • Analysis of hull cargo part strength using finite element method, • Local analysis of hull parts strength. • Analysis of cargo tanks strength under stresses caused by liquids sloshing in partially filled tanks ('ShipRight Sloshing Loads and Scantling Assessment' [2]). 2. Procedure 'ShipRight Fatigue Design Assessment' [3]. 1. General description of the hull. Principal dimensions of vessel are the following : Length over all 183.0 m Length between perpendiculars 172.4 m Breadth 32.2 m Height 17.6 m Draught 12.0m Speed 14.5 kn.
