Executive Summary
Design of a Geophysical and Hydrographic Survey Vessel for the Hecate Strait
By, E. Berzins, E. Johnston, R. Thery, and S. Zealand

Project Definition
In recent years there has been increased interest in the possibility of oil and gas
production off the shores of British Columbia. In light of this interest, the 23rd
International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering (OMAE) will
be held in Vancouver, in June 2004. Therefore it is intended that the design an offshore
seismic exploration vessel be carried out. The vessel will operate in the Hecate Strait,
between the Queen Charlotte Islands and the North Coast of British Columbia, to assist in
the exploration of oil and gas reserves, which are predicted to exist in the coastal waters
of British Columbia.

General Arrangement
The principal dimensions of the survey ship were based on the results of a parametric
study of existing offshore research vessels. A conventional monohull form was chosen
for the design, as it provided ample volumes to carry the required amounts of fresh water
and fuel. The vessel, Haida Explorer, is 60 meters long, with a 17-meter beam. The
unusually large beam was selected to accommodate the five tow winches, located at the
stern. The vessel is capable of carrying 236.2 cubic meters of fresh water and 753.5 cubic
meters of fuel. With these capacities, the vessel is capable of remaining at sea for up to
40 days without re-supply.

Weight, Buoyancy, and Stability

The weight estimate indicates that the vessel will displace approximately 986.3 metric
tonnes when all tanks are empty and 1845.5 metric tonnes with all tanks full. The
corresponding drafts are 2.94 meters and 4.15 meters, respectively. The stability of the
vessel was analysed using the General Hydrostatics (GHS) software package. The results
of the stability analysis indicate that the vessel has sufficient stability in all loading and
towing conditions with respect to the American Bureau of Shipping regulations.

Local and Global Loading

An Excel spreadsheet was used to analyse the environmental loads exerted on the vessel.
The environmental forces included in the analysis are wind, wave and current forces.
The forces were determined for both bow and beam seas and are 37.1 kN and 201.0 kN,
respectively. Forces for other directions can be estimated by vector addition of the bow
and beam sea forces.

Strength and Structural Design

The ABS regulations dictate the required section modulus of various structural members
within the vessel, which are dependent on the principal dimensions of the ship and the
frame spacing. The section modulus calculations were completed using the MathCAD
software and are presented the appendices. The dimensions of each structural member
type were determined using an Excel spreadsheet.

iii

Hydrodynamics of Motions and Loading

The natural periods of the vessel in roll, pitch, and heave were also determined using an
Excel spreadsheet. The resulting natural periods are 3.9s, 4.3s, and 3.1s, for roll, pitch,
and heave motions, respectively. These are all well below the natural significant wave
period of 13s for the Hecate Strait region, which indicates that the vessel will perform
well in this body of water.

Wind and Current Loading

The wind and current loads, in bow and beam seas, were determined for extreme high
and low draft conditions of 5.5m and 3.75m, respectively. The forces were governed by
the projected areas of the above water and below water regions of the ship in both draft
cases. As expected, the beam seas conditions experience higher wind and current loads.
It is therefore preferable to align the ship and towlines with the wind and current to
improve the quality of the surveys.

Propulsion
Using the NavCAD resistance and propulsion analysis software, it was determined that
the vessel has to overcome approximately 150 kN of resistance at 14 knots design speed.
The Caterpillar 3512 engines require a gear ratio of 1:5.5 to decrease the propeller speed
to 330 rpm.

Two 1.75 m diameter B-series propellers can sufficiently deliver the

required thrust power to propel the vessel at the design speed.

iv

Cost
The cost estimate was conducted using an Excel spreadsheet to tally up the costs of each
piece of equipment onboard, including the hull steel and labour to fabricate and install
each component. The costs were estimated using the quotation library provided by
Robert Allan Limited, a local naval architecture office. The final build cost of the ship is
estimated at $15 million USD. This cost does not include taxes, exchange rates, or
delivery costs.

Regulatory Compliance
The vessel has been design to comply with the American Bureau of Shippings Rules for
Classification and Building of Steel Vessels Under 90 Meters in Length (2001), which
governs various aspects of the design, from the structures to stability. Excerpts from the
ABS rules which were directly used in the design of this vessel are provided in the
appendices. For complete rules, visit the ABS website, http://www.eagle.org/.

Abstract
This final report discusses the completed work for the 2004 International Student
Offshore Design Competition. The intent of this report is to provide the reader with a
summary the design methodology that has been employed by the UBC ISODC team.
The chosen topic is a 60-meter geophysical and hydrographic survey vessel, which is
intended to carry out oil exploration in the Hecate Strait.
Research on existing vessels was carried out by searching online sources to compile a
database, which was used to conduct a parametric study. The parametric study revealed
several trends that assisted the UBC ISODC team to begin design of the survey ship.
From the initial results of the parametric study, a hullform was developed using Autoship
Pro 8.2.0. Using this hullform, a linesplan, general arrangement, and tank plan were
created using AutoCAD 2002.
An analysis of the natural frequencies of roll, pitch and heave were conducted to evaluate
the performance of the vessel in the Hecate Strait environment. NavCAD was used to
estimate the total resistance of the hull and to determine the total break horsepower
required to steam at 14 knots. From these results, Caterpillar 3512 engines were selected.
The internal stiffening structures of the vessel were design to meet the regulations set
forth by the American Bureau of Shipping: Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels
Under 90 Meters in Length, 2001. All supporting drawings and calculations for all the
analyses are provided in the appendices.
The weights of each component onboard were added to the steel weight estimate to arrive
at the overall weight estimate of the vessel. Using this weight estimate and the hullform,
a computer analysis of the stability was conducted using the General Hydrostatics
software package. The results of the analysis are present in the appendix.
The local and global loads, including wind, wave, and current loads, exerted on the vessel
were analysed using Excel spreadsheets. The forces were determined for both bow and
beam seas and are 37.1 kN and 201.0 kN, respectively. Detailed calculations are
provided in the report.
The cost estimate was conducted using an Excel spreadsheet to sum the costs of each
component onboard. The costs were estimated using the quotation library provided by
Robert Allan Limited. The final build cost of the ship is estimated at $15 million USD.

1.0 Introduction
The purpose of this project is to design a hydrographic survey vessel for the Hecate Strait of
British Columbia. The vessel will survey the ocean floor for evidence of oil reserves below the
Hecate Strait. The vessel design meets the American Bureau of Shipping Rules for Building and
Classing Steel Vessels Under 90 Meters in Length 2001.
This preliminary report is intended to discuss the stages of the design work completed thus far.
To date, the general arrangement and overall hull design, strength and structural design,
resistance and propulsion, and hydrodynamics of motions and loading analyses have been
completed.
The Hecate Strait is bounded on the North by Dixon Entrance, on the South by Queen Charlotte
Sound, On the West by the Queen Charlotte Islands, and on the East by the coast of mainland
British Columbia. The ocean depth ranges between 200 and 400 meters, and the width of the
Hecate Straight varies from 60 to 120 km.

Figure 1. Map of Hecate Strait, BC

The majority of the oil reserves off the Coast of British Columbia are speculated to lie in the
Hecate Strait. There has been a provincial moratorium on the offshore exploration and
production of oil in British Columbia since 1981. However, there has been recent debate on the
possibility of lifting the moratorium.
1

Data collected over the past 10 years from environmental buoys in the Hecate Strait indicate that
the significant wave height in the northern portion can reach 9 meters, while significant wave
heights in the southern region can exceed 10 meters. The wave period for the maximum
significant wave height in both regions is approximately 13 seconds. Wind speeds in the north
and south regions can reach up to 24 and 21 m/s (46.7 and 40.8 kts), respectively, with gusts
exceeding 30 m/s (58.3 kts).

Team Organization
Tasks were delegated to each team member based on their knowledge of software and areas of

2.0 Competency Areas

The design of the hydrographic survey vessel involved various aspects of the design must be
researched, analyzed, and detailed. The design in this project focuses on eight specific areas:
General arrangement and overall hull design
Weight, buoyancy, and stability
Local and global loading
Strength and structural design
Cost
Hydrodynamics of motions and loading
Wind and current loading
Resistance and propulsion
The following sections describe the methods and results of each of the completed competencies.

2.1 General Arrangement and Overall Hull/System Design

2.1.1 Parametric Study
To begin design of the hydrographic survey vessel, it was necessary to determine the
characteristics of similar vessels. Data was collected for various vessel properties, such as
length, beam, draft, displacement, engine power, and speed. Much of this information was
collected from searching online sources. A summary of the database is provided in Table 2. A
more complete version of the database, along with full results from the parametric study, can be
found in Appendix A: Vessel Database and Parametric Study Results.
Vessels under 25 meters or over 100 meters in length were neglected from the database. Vessels
under 25 meters are considered too small to have significant stability to function as a survey
vessel, whereas, vessels over 100 meters tended to skew the data too heavily to the upper end.
The cubic number of each vessel was calculated by multiplying together the three principle
dimensions, length, beam, and draft. Each of the vessel characteristics was individually plotted
against the cubic number. Linear relationships were fitted to each plot using the Least Squares
Method. It was found that the average vessel length in the database was 60 meters. Using this
length as a reference, the cubic number was determined to be approximately 2700 m3. By
interpolating the other relationships using the estimated cubic number, a table of approximate
vessel characteristics was developed and is summarized in Table 3. Using these values, it
became possible to begin the first iteration of the design spiral, beginning with hullform
development.

2.1.2 Overall Hull Design

The overall hull design had the following main requirements: a length of 60 m, a large beam, a
narrow bottom and a draft of between 4 and 5 m. The length of 60 m was chosen based on the
parametric study as discussed earlier. The large beam requirement was based on the amount aft
deck space needed for the winch and streamer arrangement. A beam of 17 m was chosen to
provide spacing for 6 to 8 winches in a monowing-towing set-up. The narrow bottom is a feature
that will reduce ship sway, allowing the vessel to maintain a strait course during surveys. The
draft requirement was based on the majority of vessels in the parametric study, which had drafts
of 4 to 5 m. The hull draft was subject to change throughout the hullform design based on weight
characteristics.
The hullform was developed in Autoship Pro 8.2.0, to view the final hullform see DWG: M44304-100, which is the linesplan. The hullform was exported from Autoship as a DXF file into
Autocad 2002, where the linesplan, tank plan, and general arrangements were drawn. Autoship
also provided complete hydrostatics for vessel at various displacements and curvature analysis.

The hullform was drawn by developing and extruding several curves. The original curve was a
plan view of the prospective main deck shown in Figure 2. In the plan view, it extended 8.5 m
from the centreline to represent the 17 m beam requirement. It was 60 m in length and attached
to the centreline at the bow and stern. The second curve was the keel curve also shown in Figure
2, which ran along the centreline 6 m below the deck curve. This curve represented the bottom
profile of the hull. The deck curve was extruded and attached to the keel curve creating the
bottom surface of the hull.

Bow Deck Extrusion

Figure 2. Hull Curves

The bow, stern, and midship profiles were made by adjusting the control points, which are
represented in Figure 3 by mesh line intersections. Extruding the same deck curve upward
created the above deck section of the hull. The bow section was extruded upward by 5 m
whereas the stern only 1 m. The bow and forward section of the hull are higher because an extra
bow deck was needed. The stern deck was kept low to keep centre of gravity low because the
majority of the heavy equipment and tow apparatus would be located on the stern deck.

Figure 3. Hull Surfaces

After the hullform was completed a hydrostatics analysis was carried out to determine the
waterline and draft based on the empty and full vessel displacements of 1500 tonnes and 1900
tonnes. Complete hydrostatics for both displacements is in the appendix. The drafts at 1500 and
1900 tonne displacements are 3.96 m and 4.45 m.
All the surfaces were analyzed with Gaussian, Mean, and Absolute Curvature functions in
Autoship. These functions indicate the amount of curvature in a surface and whether the surface
is developable. The curvature at the stern and bow were much higher than with the midship,
however they are below the non-developable limit for surface construction methods. Also the
lower the curvature usually the lower the hull construction costs. Figure 4 is the side view of the
hullform surface.

Figure 4. Hull Surface (Shaded)

A bulbous bow was not used in the hullform design because for the majority of operation, the
vessel would travel at slow survey speeds and a bulbous bow would only increase resistance.
Many of the vessels in the parametric study had bulbous bows for the long travel between
surveys. However, with this vessel travel distance to its survey area is minimal because it can
port in Prince Rupert, which is at the northeast section of the Hecate Strait. The bow is quite
narrow to reduce bow wave resistance and increase slenderness.

2.1.3 General Arrangement

The general arrangement features four different levels with an aft and forward deck. The entire
floor and deck layouts are shown in the general arrangement drawings DWG: M443-04-106. The
main requirements for the deck layouts were a helicopter pad for safety and supply issues and
sufficient deck space for a monowing towing apparatus.
The monowing towing apparatus (Figure 5) was chosen based on its lower tow drag forces than
with the conventional towing arrangement (Figure 6). This can go a long way towards reduced
fuel consumption during surveys and lower operational costs. The monowing set-up ideally uses
between six and eight streamers with monowing diverters that keep the streamers separate and
parallel during the survey. This required space for six to eight winches on the aft deck.

Figure 6. Conventional Towing Arrangement

The vessel features a helipad on the forecastle deck, forward of the superstructure. This provides
a landing pad for a small to medium sized helicopter if the need arises to airlift in extra supplies
or to evacuate the crew. The accommodation space is divided into five decks. The lower three
decks provide living space for the crew, including galley, mess, and games room. Deck four is
the officers living quarters, which also contains the sauna that is available for the crews use.
Deck five, the uppermost deck, contains the masters quarters and the bridge. The bridge has
excellent forward viewing capabilities. The science laboratory is located on deck two, which is
easily accessible from the aft deck space.
Two 14-meter, 25 tonne SWL cranes are located on the aft portion of the deck to assist in the
loading and offloading of stores, cargo and additional towing cable spools. Five tow winches are
staggered on the stern. Each winch is capable of spooling up to 2500 meters of 35-mm towline
for towing the various scientific instruments required by geophysical survey missions. Two
Caterpillar 3512 engines, located in the engine room, are capable of outputting 1750BHP, each,
at 1800rpm. Two generator sets (Caterpillar 3408C) provide ample electric power to run the
various onboard systems.

Tank Plan
The tank plan drawing (DWG: M443-04-102) indicates the tank arrangements within the hull of
the vessel. The ballast tanks are located at the fore and aft extremes of the vessel to allow for
trimming and heeling compensation. The fresh water tanks are all located in the forward end of
the ship, near the crew accommodations. The fuel tanks are all located in the mid to aft sections
of the vessel. Cofferdams are located on the boundary between the fresh water and fuel tanks, as
required by ABS regulations. Table 4 provides a summary of the total capacities of each of the
tank types. The survey ship will need to remain out at sea for extended periods of time, upwards
of 40 days per mission, therefore the fresh water and fuel tanks are sized much larger than other
ships of similar size.

2.2 Weight, Buoyancy, and Stability

2.2.1 Weight Estimate
The weight estimate was conducted in two phases. First the hull steel weight was determined by
calculating the center of gravity and mass of each structural member and plate in the hull on a
frame-by-frame basis. Detailed calculations for the steel weight estimate are available in
Appendix B.4.1 Steel weight. The results are provided in Table 5.

From the steel weight estimate, it was then possible to calculate the overall weight of the vessel
by adding the masses of the various components at their respective centers of gravity. Table 6
shows a summary of the weight estimate calculation. More detailed calculations of the weight
estimate are provided in Appendix B.4.2 Weight Estimate.

2.2.2 Buoyancy and Stability

The Haida Explorer has been designed to the 2001 ABS Rules for Classification and Building of
Steel Vessels under 90m in Length, Part 5, Chapter 8, Appendix 1. In order to test the stability
of the survey vessel, a program called General Hydrostatics (GHS) was used to simulate various
operating conditions and to ensure the vessel passed ABS intact stability requirements.

11

Stability tests were preformed under three operating conditions: full load departure condition,
intermediate load condition, and arrival condition. Towing operations in these three conditions
were also analyzed to ensure adequate vessel stability in most conditions.
Full load departure condition simulates the vessel being fully loaded about to embark on a
voyage. All tanks containing fresh water and fuel oil are completely full in this condition. The
black, grey and oily water tanks, as well as dirty oil tanks are 10% full, as it is difficult to fully
empty these tanks. All ballast tanks are empty as well due to the large amount of fuel and fresh
water on board.
The intermediate load condition simulates an operating condition of the vessel being at sea after
a number of days. All tanks are 50% full, including ballast tanks. This allows sea water in the
ballast tanks to account for the already consumed fuel and water and keep the ship at a
reasonably constant draft.
The arrival condition allows the stability to be tested when the vessel is returning from a voyage.
In this case, all fuel oil and fresh water tanks are 10% full, while the ballast and waste tanks full.
As the Haida Explorer is a geophysical survey vessel, towing capability is an important
consideration. Towing of up to six appendages under many loading conditions is possible for
this vessel, and the ship must also meet ABS stability requirements while towing whatever
equipment is required for a particular survey.
The ABS requirements are as follows:
1. The area below the righting lever curve (GZ curve) must be at least 0.055m-radians
between 0 and 30 degrees of heel.
2. The area below the righting lever curve must be at least 0.0900m-radians between 0 and
40 degrees of heel.
3. The area below the righting lever curve must be at least 0.0300m-radians between 30 and
40 degrees of heel.
4. The righting arm must be at least 0.200m at 30 degrees of heel.
5. The maximum righting arm must occur at and angle of at least 25 degrees of heel.
6. The initial metacentric height (GM) of the vessel must be at least 0.15m.
These rules have been created to ensure adequate stability of vessels under 90m.
Appendix E: GHS Input/Output shows the results of the GHS run files, as well as the ABS
stability criteria and test results. Under all operating conditions, the Haida Explorer passes all
the stability criteria. The GHS tests indicate results that are over an order of magnitude higher
than the minimum ABS requirements in terms of areas under curves and righting arms. This
indicates the ship is very stable in all operating conditions, especially when noting the smallest
GM of the vessel to be 5.74m. This stability is likely due to the large freeboard of the vessel, as
well as a reasonably wide beam and a low centre of gravity.

12

With a righting arm that remains positive to beyond 90 degrees even in the arrival condition, the
vessel remains positively stable at the most uncomfortable of heeling angles. This indicates the
Haida Explorer will be a suitable ship to handle the seas in the Hecate Straight.
It must be noted that the loading due to winches, cranes, engines and other machinery are all
included in the lightship weight of the vessel. The longitudinal, transverse and vertical centres of
gravity (LCG, TCG and VCG respectively) of each piece of equipment is incorporated into the
LCG, TCG and VCG of the entire lightship vessel. This prevents the need for applying multiple
machinery loads as well as tank loads in GHS.

2.3 Local and Global Loading

The global loading is a combination of wind, current, and wave forces on the vessel. The amount
of loading is dependent on the weather conditions, which can vary significantly. The wind,
current, and wave forces were analyzed separately and then later combined to determine the
global loading situations on the vessel.
Table 7 lists the wind, current and wave loads on the vessels for bow and beam seas in the
Hecate Strait. Significant wind, current, and wave heights were used in the calculations, which
were a wind speed of 14 m/s or 27.2 knots, an ocean current of 0.65 m/s or 1.25 knots, and a
wave height of 5.0 m.

The values in Table 7 were obtained as follows:

The wind and current loading parameters are described in more detail in the wind and current
loading section. Below are the basic equations for the global loading analysis.
Wind Loading
Dwind = V2ACd
Where:

Dwind = wind drag force

air = air density = 1.19 kg/m3
V = wind speed
A = projected area above the waterline affected by wind
Cd = drag coefficient

Current Loading
Where:

Dcurrent = current drag force

saltwater = salt water density = 1027.5 kg/m3
V = ocean current speed
A = projected area below the waterline affected by ocean current
Cd = drag coefficient

Wave Loading
Where:

Dcurrent = V2ACd

Dwavedrift = gLCdrift sin3()

Dwavedrift = wave drift force

saltwater = salt water density = 1027.5 kg/m3
L = vessel length = 59.9 m
= wave impact angle with respect to vessel direction
g = gravity = 9.81 m/s
Cdrift = drift coefficient

Determining the wave drift force on the vessel varies from the procedures for finding wind and
current force. The main difficulty in determining the wave drift force is finding the drift
coefficient Cdrift
Cdrift = {S(0)[Dwavedrift (0)/(0.5ga2]}d0
Where:

Cdrift = wave drift coefficient

S(0) = wave spectrum from Hecate Strait data
0 = natural wave frequency rad/s
g = gravity = 9.81 m/s

Table 8 shows the combined global loading on the vessel for the two sea states. This represents
the global loading on the vessel for the various environmental effects. The environmental effects
analyzed were the significant weather conditions not the 100 year storm conditions because the
significant weather conditions are much more likely. Table 8 shows that there is much higher
forces on the vessel for beam seas as opposed to bow seas. The quartering seas can also be
determined and should have forces between the beam and bow forces. Ideal survey directions
would be at bow seas because there is no wave drift occurring and the wind and current force are
much lower than with beam seas. This makes keeping a straight course during surveys much
easier and efficient, less energy is needed via bow thrusters to keep a straight course. During
surveys it is very important that the vessel maintains its course and avoids any swaying.

2.4 Strength and Structural Design

The design of the ship structures is highly regulated by the various international classification
societies. In order for a ship to be approved for construction, it must meet the standards of one
of the classification societies. This vessel has been designed to meet the rules and regulations set
forth by the American Bureau of Shipping: Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels Under
90 Meters in Length 2001. The sections used for the design of the internal ship structures are
provided in Appendix G: ABS Rules. A complete version of the rules can be downloaded from
the ABS website.
The ABS rules determine the minimum allowable thickness and depth of deck and shell plating,
and center and side girders. The plating thickness is highly dependent on its location. Table 9
shows the minimum plate thickness for different locations on the vessel and the dimensions of
the center and side girders, detailed calculations can be found in Appendix B: Calculations.

For other internal structures, the ABS rules dictate the minimum required section modulus, based
on a number of parameters, including, vessel length, beam and frame spacing. It is the duty of
the naval architect to select suitable structures to fulfill the section modulus requirements. The
frame spacing used in determining the section modulus requirements was 600mm. Table 10
provides the minimum required section modulus of various ship structures, detailed calculations
can be found in Appendix B: Calculations.
Where a large section modulus is required for structures, it is often that a structural member will
be built up using several pieces of plate to create webs and flanges. Figure 8 shows a typical
arrangement of a built up section. The reference axis is an arbitrary axis used to determine the
neutral axis, and therefore the section modulus, of the member, including the associated plating.
Through several iterations, dimensions for the web and flange of each structural member was
determined such that the given section modulus exceeded the ABS requirement. Table 10
summarizes the resulting members, see Appendix B: Calculations for full section modulus
calculations.

The structural arrangement drawing shows the bottom and side structures in both plan and
elevation views. The vessel has been transversely framed with a frame spacing of 600mm. Web
frames are typically located 2400mm apart, however some variation exists due to the presence of
tank boundaries. Figure 9 depicts the typical structural arrangement of web and normal frames.

2.5 Hydrodynamics of Motions and Loading

2.5.1 Natural Periods of Vessel
The natural periods of roll, pitch, and heave are shown in Table 11. These values were obtained
based on hullform hydrostatics and Simpsons approximations for the mass moments of inertia in
the longitudinal and transverse cases.

Roll:
The added mass coefficient remains fairly constant for rolling conditions at a = 0.2, which was
assumed for these calculations. The added mass term is applied to represent the fluid around the
hull, which has to be accelerated at rates similar to the hull acceleration. It can be thought of as
adding the mass of the surrounding fluid to displacement mass.
Hydrostatics: GMt = 6.43 m

m = 1899.6 tonnes

Simpsons Approximation :

Ixx = 37707(103) kg/m2 = m Kxx2

Kxx2 = 19.85 m2

2 = gGMt/Kxx2(1 + a) = 9.81(6.43)/[19.85(1 + 0.2)] = 2.65

T = 2/ = 2/1.627 = 3.861 seconds
Pitch:
The added mass in pitching conditions remains fairly constant at a = 0.5.
Hydrostatics: GMl = 71.64 m
Simpsons Approximation :

m = 1899.6 tonnes
Iyy = 420115(103) kg/m2 = m Kyy2
Kyy2 = 221.16 m2

2 = gGMl/Kyy2(1 + a) = 9.81(71.64)/[221.16(1 + 0.5)] = 2.12

T = 2/ = 2/1.456 = 4.317 seconds

20

Heave:
The added mass for heave varies significantly according to the hull shape. For this hull a heave
coefficient of a = 1.76 was obtained. The calculation for this coefficient is shown in the
appendix.
Hydrostatics: Awp = 788.51 m2

V = 1899.6 m3

z2 = gAwp/V(1 + a) = 9.81(788.51)/1899.6(2.76) = 4.072

Tz = 2/z = 2/2.018 = 3.114 seconds

2.5.2 Pitch, Roll and Heave Motions

The maximum pitch, roll, and heave motions of the vessel in the Hecate Strait were determined
for the significant wave heights. The pitch and roll motions were determined for a worst-case
scenario by analyzing the pitch in bow seas ( = 180 degrees) and the roll in beam seas ( = 90
degrees). The ship motions were all determined based on the Hecate Strait wave buoy data,
which was used to determine the encountering wave spectrums as shown in Figure 10.

The encountering spectrums are derived from the Hecate Strait wave spectrum shown in Figure

encountering spectrums are dependent on the vessel encountering wave frequency (e) with a
vessel speed (V) of 7.2 m/s or 14 knots. The frequencies are altered with the following formula:
e = w(1-w Vcos/g)

Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs) were determined from the ship and Hecate Strait data,
calculations and the values for determining the RAOs are in the appendix. RAOs are the square
of the pitch, roll, or heave motion divided by the significant wave height.
RAO(roll) = (/)2
where:

RAO(pitch) = (/)2

RAO(heave) = (z/)2

The RAOs were used to determine the response spectrum for the vessel in the Hecate Strait. This
was done by multiplying the RAO by S in Figure 10 and Figure 11 as in the following formula:
S(e) = RAO(S(e))
Figure 15, Figure 16, and Figure 17 show the response spectrums for rolling and pitching of the
vessel. The maximum roll and pitch motions are found finding the area under each plot and using
the following equation:
Pitch or Roll = 2.00(area)1/2
For pitch and roll the area has units in degrees2 and for heave the units are m2.

problems regarding ship performance.

2.6 Wind and Current Loading

The wind and current loading on the vessel are determined from the highest known wind and
current forces in the Hecate Strait to approximate the 100 year storm condition. These conditions
consisted of a wind speed of 31.1 knots or 16 m/s and an ocean current of 1.5 knots or 0.772 m/s.
The vessel was analyzed at the loaded and unloaded drafts and at bow and beam seas. The wind
and current loading are represented by drag forces on the vessel as shown in Table 13 below.

The drag forces from wind and ocean currents are determined from the following equation.
D = V2ACd
Where:

D = wind or current drag force

= fluid density [(1.19 kg/m3 for air) (1027.5 kg/m3 for salt water)]
V = wind speed or ocean current speed
A = projected area of vessel affected by wind or current
Cd = drag coefficient

26

The values for the projected areas and drag coefficients are also listed in Table 13. The projected
areas were derived the AutoCad General Arrangements and drawing M443-04-107 in Appendix
F: Drawings shows each of the vessels projected areas for beam and bow seas. The drag
coefficients are approximations based 3-dimensional object drag coefficients. For instance, as
shown in M443-04-107, much of the beam seas wind loading is against vertical sections, which
can be modeled as flat plates, which have a Cd of 2.0. The bow and front surface of the ship
resembles more of a half cylinder, which has a Cd of 1.2. The drag coefficient values could be
determined with higher accuracy by model testing a scaled vessel with wind and current loads.
Table 13 only shows the wind and current loading for the 100 year storm condition, however, the
lower wind and current loading can be determined for various situation by simply inputting the
various wind and ocean current speeds.

27

2.7 Propulsion and Station Keeping

There are numerous influences on the overall resistance of a hull which all must be taken into
consideration when performing a simulation.
Using NavCAD allows most resistance-influencing factors to be input for resistance and
propulsion predictions. Inputs are divided into sections pertaining to different parts of the hull
and are as follows: environment, hull, appendages, propulsion, miscellaneous, and operating
speed.
The environment section incorporates factors such as windage, channel influences and wave
motions. As the superstructure of the vessel is still under modification, accounting for the force
of the wind on an undetermined area would significantly alter the NavCAD outputs. As a result,
special wind conditions have not been taken into consideration. The channel input was also
neglected, as the vessel would very seldom require passage through a channel. The wave
motions used are standard Sea State two wave height and periods. Most vessels analyzed for
propulsion and resistance are tested in this state, since performance in higher sea states focuses
more on the survivability of the vessel.
Considerations for the hull include dimensions, as well as wetted surface area, maximum section
area, and hull type and general shape. Whether the transom of a ship is submerged plays an
important factor in ship resistance. When the vessel is in its lightship condition, the transom is
completely out of the water. However, as the ship becomes fully loaded and the draft increases
to nearly six meters, the dragging transom causes reasonable resistance as flow around the stern
becomes quickly separated.
Apart from just a hull form, other underwater appendages cause resistance as well. With four
rudders to increase steering performance, resistance must also increase as well. However, the
benefits of superior handling far outweigh the resistance caused by additional rudders.
Stabilizers must also be taken into account, as well as exposed propeller shafts, struts and
brackets.
Equipped with twin Caterpillar 3512 diesel engines running at 1800rpm through a gearbox with a
gear ratio of 5.5:1, the two propellers will spin at nearly 330rpm. However, efficiencies of both
gears and shafts must be taken in account, which slightly reduce the performance of propulsion
system. Two standard, five-blade B-series fixed-pitch propellers, 1.75m in diameter were chosen
to propel this vessel, as other survey ships of similar size are equipped with propellers of this
kind.
Miscellaneous other influences include numerous margin factors, as well as equipment towed by
the vessel. Due to the wide variety and size of potential towed vessels and equipment, the
significant differences in their respective resistances causes input in this category to skew the
results. It is also the resistance and propulsion required by the survey vessel which is being
investigated, as opposed to the equipment it can tow behind it.

28

The vessel was desired to run at a speed of 14 knots with both engines ideally providing 1300kW
each. Figure 18 in Appendix D: NavCAD Input/Output indicates the required brake power per
propeller shaft versus ship velocity. Examination of this graph indicates 900kW are required per
propeller shaft in order to reach this speed at lightship displacement in Sea State two. Running at
full power, the ship can reach a speed of 15 knots. Shaft power is only slightly lower than the
brake power required, as the gearbox and shaft efficiencies are 98% each.
Since low-speed manoeuvres are critical as well for a survey vessel in order to facilitate towing
procedures, it can be noted that the ship can slowly manoeuvre with minimal amounts of power
per shaft, or can comfortably run at low speeds with only one engine.
The propellers were found to be 60% efficient, which is standard for such a propeller type.
Examining the % cavitation data, minimum cavitation occurs within the 12 to 14 knot speed
range. This is ideal, as this is the cruising speed of the vessel and as a result the propellers will
have a longer life span while running in this range.
The resistance values for the hull form indicate a total drag force of 150 kN, including
appendages and margin factors. This result is reasonable and compares favourably with database
resistance values of similar sized ships. This is crucial, as additional power is not required in
order to attain the design cruising speed.

2.8 Cost Estimate

The cost estimate of the Haida Explorer is provided in Table 14. The cost of each major
component was estimated with reference to the quotation library provided by a local design
office. Smaller items are accounted for in the miscellaneous items of each subsection. A 15%
margin was added to the cost estimate to account for inflation, since quotes given in the
quotation library have become dated. A further 2% has been added as a contingency fund to
cover the cost of late materials and equipment. It was found that the cost of the vessel will be
approximately $15 million.

3.0 Summary and Conclusions

In this report, the design methodology for the design of a geophysical and hydrographic survey
vessel, to operate in the Hecate Strait, has been examined. A database of 26 similar survey
vessels was created. Several linear relationships between cubic number (length x beam x draft)
and various vessel characteristics were developed to estimate the dimensions and other properties
of the proposed survey vessel. From the parametric study, a vessel length of 60 meters was
chosen because this length provides ample deck area for the multiple winches that are required
for survey-type missions.
Using the results from the parametric study, a hullform was developed in Autoship Pro 8.2.0.
This hullform served as the basis for the design work to follow. A linesplan, general
arrangement, and tank plan were developed from the original hullform. Design drawings are
available in the appendices. Analyses of the natural frequencies of roll, pitch, and heave motions
were completed to examine the performance of the vessel in the waters of the Hecate Strait.
Further analysis is required to quantify the effect of waves on the ship motions.
NavCAD was employed to evaluate the total resistance of the vessel at various operating speeds.
From these results it was determined that approximately 900kW break power per shaft is
necessary to steam at 14 knots. 1.75 meter B-propellers at 330 rpm are able to deliver the
required power. Caterpillar 3512 engines have been selected to generate the necessary power.
The internal ship structures have been designed to meet the American Bureau of Shipping: Rules
for Building and Classing Steel Vessels Under 90 Meters in Length, 2001 regulations. DWG
443-04-104 and DWG 443-04-105 illustrate the typical stiffening structures in plan view,
elevation view and section view. Calculations for determining the dimensions of the stiffening
structures are provided in Appendix B: Calculations.
Using the weight estimate and the hullform, the stability was analysed using the GHS software
package. The results of the analysis are present in the appendix. It was found that the vessel
greatly exceeds all ABS requirements for intact stability and towing stability for all operating
conditions.
The local and global loads, including wind, wave, and current loads, exerted on the vessel were
analysed using Excel spreadsheets. The forces were determined for both bow and beam seas and
are 37.1 kN and 201.0 kN, respectively. The cost estimate was conducted using an Excel
spreadsheet to sum the costs of each component onboard. The costs were estimated using the
quotation library provided by Robert Allan Limited. The final build cost of the ship is estimated
at $15 million USD.

Distances in METERS.---Specific Gravity = 1.025.---Area in M.-Rad.
Note:

The Center of Gravity shown above is for the Fixed Weight of

986.29 MT. As the tank load centers shift with heel and
trim, the total Center of Gravity varies. The righting arms
shown above include the effect of the C.G. variation.
The free surface adjustment is for the difference between the
formal and the true free surface at the initial heel.

Note:

The Residual Righting Arms shown above are in excess of the

overturning arms derived from this moment (in M.-MT):

General
Vessels are to have longitudinal hull girder section modulus in accordance with the requirements of
this section. The equation in this section is, in general, valid for all vessels having breadths, B, which
do not exceed two times their depths, D, as defined in Section 3-1-1. Vessels whose proportions
exceed these limits will be subject to special consideration.

Shearing Strength
In calculating the nominal total shear stresses due to still-water and wave-induced loads, the
maximum algebraic sum of the shearing force in still-water Fsw and that induced by wave Fw
at the station examined is to be used. The thicknesses of the side shell and longitudinal
bulkhead, where fitted, are to be such that the nominal total shear stresses as obtained from
3-2-1/3.3.5(a) or 3-2-1/3.3.5(c) are not greater than 11.0 kN/cm2 (1.122 tf/cm2, 7.122 Ltf/in2).
Where the side shell or longitudinal bulkhead is constructed of higher strength material the
permissible shear stresses may be increased by the factor 1/Q.
3.3.5(a) Shearing Strength for Vessels without Effective Longitudinal Bulkheads. For vessels
without continuous longitudinal bulkheads, the nominal total shear stress fs in the side shell
plating may be obtained from the following equation:

shear stress is being determined and the vertical extremity of effective
longitudinal material, taken at the section under consideration.

ts

hull girder shearing force in still water, Fsw, to be used for calculating shear stresses in the
side shell plating may be modified to account for the shear loads transmitted through the
double bottom structure to the traverse bulkhead.
3.3.5(c) Shearing Strength for Vessels with Two or Three Longitudinal Bulkheads. For
vessels having continuous longitudinal bulkheads the total shear stresses in the side shell and
longitudinal bulkhead plating are to be calculated by an acceptable method. In determining
the still-water shear force, consideration is to be given to the effects of non-uniform
athwartship distribution of loads. The method described in Appendix 3-2-A1 of the Rules for
Building and Classing Steel Vessels may be used as a guide in calculating the nominal total
shear stress fs related to the shear flow in the side shell or longitudinal bulkhead plating.
Alternative methods of calculation will also be considered. One acceptable method is shown
in Appendix 5-2-A1 of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels.

Hull Girder Moment of Inertia

The hull-girder moment of inertia of the vessel amidships, I, is to be not less than obtained from the
following equation:
I = L(SM)/33.3

m2-cm2 (ft2-in2)

where
L

length of vessel, as defined in 3-1-1/3, in m (ft.)

SM

hull girder section modulus required for the vessel in 3-2-1/3.1 or 3-2-1/3.3.4

Decks

5.1

Strength Decks
The uppermost deck to which the side shell plating extends for any part of the length of the vessel is
to be considered the strength deck for that portion of the length, except in way of comparatively short
superstructures. In such a case, the deck on which the superstructures are located is to be considered
the strength deck in way of the superstructure. In general, the effective sectional area of the deck for
use in calculating the section modulus is to exclude hatchways and other large openings through the
deck but may include seam overlaps.
The deck sectional areas used in the section modulus calculations are to be maintained throughout the
midship 0.4L in vessels. They may be reduced to one-half the normal requirement at 0.15L from the
ends. In way of a superstructure beyond the midship 0.4L, the strength deck area may be reduced to
approximately 70% of the normal requirement at that location.

5.3

Effective Lower Decks

To be considered effective for use in calculating the hull girder section modulus, the thickness of the
deck plating is to comply with the requirements of Section 3-2-3. The sectional areas of lower decks
used in calculating the section modulus are to be obtained as described in 3-2-1/5.1. These areas are to
be maintained throughout the midship 0.4L and may be gradually reduced to one-half their midship
value at 0.15L from the ends.

Longitudinal Strength with Higher-Strength Materials

7.1

General
Vessels in which the effective longitudinal material of either the upper or lower flanges of the main
hull girder, or both, are constructed of materials having mechanical properties greater than those of
ordinary strength hull structural steel (see Section 2-1-2 of the ABS Rule Requirements for Materials
and Welding Part 2), are to have longitudinal strength generally in accordance with the preceding
paragraphs of this section, but the value of the hull girder section modulus may be modified as
permitted by the following paragraphs. Applications of higher-strength material are to be continuous
over the length of the vessel to locations where the stress levels will be suitable for the adjacent mild
steel structure. Higher strength steel is to be extended to suitable locations below the strength deck
and above the bottom, so that the stress levels will be satisfactory for the remaining ordinary strength
steel structure. The strength deck and bottom structure are to be longitudinally framed. The
longitudinal framing members are to be essentially of the same material as the plating they support
and are to be continuous throughout the required extent of higher strength steel. Calculations showing
that adequate strength has been provided against buckling are to be submitted for review and care is to
be exercised against the adoption of reduced thicknesses of materials which may be subject to damage
during normal operations.

When either the top or the bottom flange of the hull girder, or both, is constructed of higher-strength
material, the section modulus as obtained from 3-2-1/3.1 or 3-2-1/3.3.4 may be reduced by the factor
Q.

9.1

Loading Manual and Loading Instrument

All vessels that are contracted for construction on or after July 1998 are to be provided with a loading

Allowable Stresses
9.3.1

At Sea
See 3-2-1/3.3.4 for bending stress and 3-2-1/3.3.5 for shear stress for vessels with ordinary
strength steel material. For higher strength steel, the allowable stress may be increased by a
factor of 1/Q where Q is as defined in 3-2-1/7.5.

9.3.2

In Port
The allowable in-port stress is 13.13 kN/cm2 (1.34 tf/cm2, 8.5 Ltf/in2) for bending and
10 kN/cm2 (1.025 tf/cm2, 6.5 Ltf/in2) for shear. For higher strength steel, the allowable stress
may be increased by a factor of 1/Q where Q is as defined in 3-2-1/7.5.

Section Modulus Calculation

11.1

Items Included in the Calculation

In general, the following items may be included in the calculation of the section modulus provided
they are continuous or effectively developed within midship 0.4L and gradually tapered beyond the
midship 0.4L. Where the scantlings are based on the still-water bending moment envelope curves,
items included in the hull girder section modulus amidships are to be extended as necessary to meet
the hull girder section modulus required at the location being considered.

11.3

Effective Areas Included in the Calculation

In general, the net sectional areas of longitudinal strength members are to be used in the hull girder
section modulus calculations, except that small isolated openings need not be deducted provided the
openings and the shadow area breadths of the other openings in any one transverse section do not
reduce the section modulus by more than 3%. The breadth or depth of such openings is not to be
greater than 1200 mm (47 in.) or 25% of the breadth or depth of the member in which it is located,
whichever is less, with a maximum of 75 mm (3 in.) for scallops. The length of small isolated
openings not required to be deducted is generally not to be greater than 2500 mm (100 in.) The
shadow area of an opening is the area forward and aft of the opening enclosed by the lines tangential
to the corners of the opening intersecting each other to form an included angle of 30 degrees.

11.5

Section Modulus to the Deck or Bottom

The section modulus to the deck or bottom is obtained by dividing the moment of inertia by the
distance from the neutral axis to the molded deck at side amidships or baseline, respectively.

11.7

Section Modulus to the Top of Hatch Coamings

For continuous longitudinal hatch coamings in accordance with 3-2-1/13, the section modulus to the
top of the coaming is to be obtained by dividing the moment of inertia by the distance from the neutral
axis to the deck at side plus the coaming height. This distance need not exceed yt as given by the
following equation, provided yt is not less than the distance to the molded deck line at side.
yt = y (0.9 + 0.2x/B)

m (ft)

where
y

distance, in m (ft), from the neutral axis to the top of the continuous coaming

distance, in m (ft), from the top of the continuous coaming to the centerline of the
vessel

breadth of the vessel, as defined in 3-1-1/5, in m (ft). x and y are to be measured

to the point giving the largest value of yt.

Section modulus to the top of longitudinal hatch coamings between multi-hatchways will be subject to
special consideration.

13

Continuous Longitudinal Hatch Coamings and Above-Deck

Girders
Where strength deck longitudinal coamings of length greater than 0.14L are effectively supported by
longitudinal bulkheads or deep girders, the coamings are to be longitudinally stiffened in accordance
with 3-2-12/7.7. The section modulus amidships to the top of the coaming is to be as required by
3-2-1/3.1, 3-2-1/3.3, and 3-2-1/11.7 but the section modulus to the deck at side, excluding the
coaming, need not be determined in way of such coaming.
Continuous longitudinal girders on top of the strength deck are to be considered similarly. Their
scantlings are also to be in accordance with Section 3-2-6.

Side Shell Plating at Ends

The minimum side shell plating thickness, t, at ends is to be obtained from the following equations
and is not to extend for more than 0.1L from the ends. Between the midship 0.4L and the end 0.1L the
thickness of the plating may be gradually tapered.

Bow and Stern Thruster Tunnels

The thickness of the tunnel plating is to be not less than required by 3-2-2/5.5, nor is the thickness to

t = 0.008d + 0.13 in.
where

inside diameter of the tunnel in mm (in.), but is to be taken as not less than 968
mm (38 in.)

Where the outboard ends of the tunnel are provided with bars or grids, the bars or grids are to be
effectively secured.

Local Strengthening for Research Vessels

In vessels used for research, wear plates or rollers are recommended at all places where research
methods or gear will subject the shell plating to accelerated wear. Special strengthening may be
required in areas where small boats are regularly launched, retrieved, or stowed. Special strengthening
may be required also in areas where the vessel makes contact with another vessel when pursing,
hauling, brailing, pumping, loading, unloading, or running together.

11

Compensation
Compensation is to be provided for openings in the shell plating where required to maintain the
longitudinal and transverse strength of the hull. All openings are to have well-rounded corners. Those
in the upper side shell are to be located a suitable distance below the deck edge. Cargo and gangway
openings are to be kept well clear of other discontinuities in the hull girder. Local provision is to be
made to maintain the longitudinal and transverse strength of the hull.
Thick plating or doublers, of sufficient breadth to prevent damage from the flukes of stockless
anchors, are to be fitted around the hawse pipes.

13

Breaks
Breaks in vessels having partial superstructures are to be specially strengthened to limit the local
increases in stresses at these points. The stringer plates and sheer strakes at the lower level are to be
increased in thickness well beyond the break in both directions. The thickness is to be increased 25%
in way of breaks of superstructures. The side plating of the superstructure is to be increased in
thickness and the side plating is to extend well beyond the end of the superstructure in such fashion as
to provide a long gradual taper. Where the breaks of the forecastle or poop are appreciably beyond the
midship 0.5L, these requirements may be modified. Gangways, large freeing ports, side shell doors,
and other openings in the shell or bulwarks are to be kept well clear of the breaks, and any holes
which must unavoidably be cut in the plating are to be kept as small as possible and are to be circular
or oval in form.

15

Bilge Keels
Bilge keels, where fitted, are to be attached to the shell by a doubler. In general, both the bilge keel
and the doubler are to be continuous. The connection of the bilge keel to the doubler, and the doubler
to the shell, are to be by double continuous fillet welds.

Butt welds in the bilge keel and doubler are to be full penetration and are to be kept clear of master
erection butts. In general, shell butts are to be flush in way of the doubler; doubler butts are to be flush
in way of the bilge keel. In general, scallops and cutouts are not to be used. Where desired, a crackarresting hole at least 25 mm (1 in.) in diameter may be drilled in the bilge keel butt weld as close as
practicable to the doubler.
The ends of the bilge keel are to be suitably tapered and are to terminate on an internal stiffening
member. The material tensile properties of bilge keels and doublers are to be as required for bottom
shell plating.

Higher-strength Materials

17.1

General
In general applications of higher-strength materials are to take into consideration the suitable
extension of the higher-strength material above and below the bottom and deck respectively, as
required by 3-2-1/7.1. Care is to be taken against the adoption of reduced thickness of material that
might be subject to damage during normal operation. The thickness of bottom and side-shell plating,
where constructed of higher-strength materials are to be not less than required for purposes of
longitudinal hull girder strength; nor are they to be less than required by the foregoing paragraphs of
this section when modified as indicated by the following paragraphs.

Compensation is to be provided for openings in the strength deck and other effective decks to
maintain the longitudinal and transverse strength. Openings in the strength deck are to have a
minimum corner radius of 0.125 times the width of the opening, but need not exceed a radius of
600 mm (24 in.). In other decks the radius is to be 0.09375 times the width of the opening, but need

Thickness
In general, applications of higher strength materials are to take into consideration the suitable

the adoption of reduced thickness of material such as might be subject to damage during normal
operation. The thickness of deck plating, for longitudinally framed decks, where constructed of

Where the deck plating is transversely framed, or where the Rules do not provide a specific thickness
for the deck plating, the thickness of the higher-strength material will be specially considered, taking
into consideration the size of the vessel, intended service and the foregoing Rule requirements.

SECTION

Bottom Structure

Double Bottoms

1.1

General
Inner bottoms are to be fitted fore and aft between the peaks or as near thereto as practicable in
vessels of ordinary design of 500 GT or over. Where, for special reasons, it may be desired to omit the
inner bottom, the arrangements are to be clearly indicated on the plans when first submitted for
approval. A double bottom need not be fitted in way of deep tanks provided the safety of the vessel in
the event of bottom damage is not thereby impaired. It is recommended that the inner bottom be
arranged to protect the bilges as much as possible and that it be extended to the sides of the vessel.
Shell longitudinals and frames in way of deep tanks are to have not less strength than is required for
stiffeners on deep tank bulkheads.

1.3

Center Girder
A center girder is to be fitted extending as far forward and aft as practicable. The plates are to be
continuous within the midship three-quarters length; elsewhere they may be intercostal between
floors. Where double bottoms are to be used for fuel oil or fresh water, the girders are to be intact, but
need not be tested under pressure. This requirement may be modified in narrow tanks at the ends of
the vessel or where other intact longitudinal divisions are provided at about 0.25B from centerline.
Where the girders are not required to be intact, manholes may be cut in every frame space outside the
midships three-quarters length; they may be cut in alternate frames spaces within the midships threequarters length. For vessels which have a length more than 61 m (200 ft) and the length of the cargo
hold is greater than 1.2B, the thickness and depth of center girder plates are to be specially considered
based on the results of a direct structural calculation.
1.3.1

Thickness Amidships
The thickness of the center girder within the midship one-half length is not to be less than
obtained from the following equation.

t = 0.056L + 5.5 mm
t = 0.00067L + 0.22 in.

Thickness at Ends
The thickness of the center girder forward and aft of the midship one-half length may be
reduced to 85% of the girder thickness amidships.

1.3.3

Depth
The depth of the center girder is not to be less than obtained from the following equation:

Side Girders
Where the distance between the center girder and the side shell exceeds 4.57 m (15 ft.), intercostal
side girders are to be fitted approximately midway between the center girder and the side shell. The
minimum thickness of the intercostal side girders is not to be less than obtained from the following
equation.
t = 0.036L + c mm
t = 0.00043L + c in.

where

1.7

Floors
Solid floors are to be fitted at every frame under the engine room, at every frame in the peaks, and
under transverse bulkheads. Elsewhere the solid floors are to have a maximum spacing of 3.66 m
(12 ft.) in association with intermediate open floors or longitudinal framing. The thickness of solid
floors is to be equal to the thickness of side girders obtained in 3-2-4/1.5 except that for widely spaced
floors in association with longitudinal framing, c is to be taken as 6.2 mm (0.24 in.).

1.9

Frames
In transversely framed vessels, open floors consisting of frames and reverse frames are to be fitted at
all frames where solid floors are not fitted. Center and side brackets are to overlap the frames and
reverse frames for a distance equal to 0.05B; they are to be of the thickness required for side girders in
the same location and are to be flanged on their outer edges. Alternatively, longitudinal framing is to
be fitted in association with widely spaced floors. The section modulus, SM, of each frame, reverse
frame or bottom, or inner bottom longitudinal in association with the plating to which it is attached is
not to be less than obtained from the following equation.
SM = 7.8chsl2 cm3
SM = 0.0041chsl2 in3

Struts
Struts are to be angle bar sections, fitted midway between floors. In general they are not to be used
where cargo is discharged by grabs, where heavy cargoes are carried, or in the bottom forward
slamming area. The permissible load Wa for struts is to be determined in accordance with 3-2-6/3.5.3.
The calculated load W is to be determined by:

2.0 mm (0.08 in.). For vessels with longitudinally-framed inner bottoms, the minimum thickness of
inner-bottom plating may be reduced by 1 mm (0.04 in.).
For vessels regularly engaged in trades where the cargo is handled by grabs or similar mechanical
appliances, it is recommended that flush inner-bottom plating be adopted throughout the cargo space,
and that the plating be suitably increased, but the increase need not exceed 5 mm (0.20 in.). It is also
recommended that the minimum thickness be not less than 12.5 mm with 610 mm (0.50 in. with
24 in.) frame spacing and 19 mm with 915 mm (0.74 in. with 36 in.) frame spacing. Intermediate
thicknesses may be obtained by interpolation.
Where provision is to be made for the operation or stowage of vehicles having rubber tires, and after
all other requirements are met, the thickness of the inner bottom plating is to be not less than obtained
from 3-2-3/7.
Margin plates which are approximately horizontal are to have thicknesses not less than the adjacent
inner bottom plating. Where they are nearly vertical, they are to be not less than the required inner
bottom plating in the engine space and are to extend the full depth of the inner bottom.

less than the required thickness of the shell plating, using the approximate value of stiffener spacing,
s.

Access, Lightening, Air, and Drainage Holes

Access holes in double bottom tank tops and lightening holes in nontight members are to be sufficient
in size and number to assure accessibility to all parts of the double bottom; the proposed locations and
sizes of the holes are to be indicated on the drawings submitted for approval. Tank top access hole
covers are to be of steel or equivalent material, and where no ceiling is fitted in a cargo hold, the
covers are to be protected against damage by the cargo. Air and drainage holes are to be cut in all
nontight parts of the double bottom structure to assure the free escape of gases to the vents and the
free drainage of liquids to the suctions.

Single Bottoms with Floors and Keelsons

In general, applications of higher-strength materials for bottom structures are to meet the requirements
of this section, but may be modified as permitted by the following paragraphs. Care is to be exercised
to avoid the adoption of reduced thickness of material such as might be subject to damage during
normal operation and calculations are to be submitted to show adequate provision against buckling.
Longitudinal framing members are to be of essentially the same material as the plating they support.

9.3

Inner-bottom Plating
Inner-bottom plating, where constructed of higher-strength material and where longitudinally framed,
is to be not less in thickness than required by 3-2-4/1.13 or for tank top plating as modified by the

Machinery Space

11.1

General
Special attention is directed to arranging, for the provision of plated through beams and such casing
and pillar supports as are required to secure structural efficiency. All parts of the machinery, shafting,
etc., are to be efficiently supported and the adjacent structure is to be adequately stiffened.
Consideration is to be given to the submittal of plans of the foundations for main propulsion units,
reduction gears, and thrust bearings and of the structure supporting those foundations to the
machinery manufacturer for review. (See also 4-3-1/21.)

11.3

Engine Foundations
11.3.1 Single Bottom Vessels
In vessels with single bottoms the engines are to be seated on thick plates laid across the top
of deep floors or upon heavy foundation girders efficiently bracketed and stiffened.
Intercostal plates are to be fitted between the floors beneath the lines of bolting to distribute
the weight effectively through the bottom structure to the shell. Seat plates are to be of
thickness and width appropriate to the holding-down bolts and are to be effectively attached
to girders and intercostals.

Side Frames, Webs and Stringers

General

1.1

Basic Considerations
Frames, or webs and stringers, are not to have less strength than is required for watertight bulkhead
stiffeners, or girders, in the same location in association with heads to the bulkhead deck. In way of
deep tanks, frames or webs and stringers are not to have less strength than is required for stiffeners or
girders on deep-tank bulkheads. The calculated section modulus is based upon the intact sections
being used. Where a hole is cut in the flange of any member or a large opening is made in the web of
the member, the net section is to be used in determining the section modulus of the member in
association with the plating to which it is attached.

1.3

End Connections
At the ends of unbracketed frames, both the web and the flange are to be welded to the supporting
member. At bracketed end connections, continuity of strength is to be maintained at the connection to
the bracket and at the connection of the bracket to the supporting member. Welding is to be in
accordance with 3-2-16/Table 1. Where longitudinal frames are not continuous at bulkheads, end
connections are to effectively develop their sectional area and resistance to bending. Where a
structural member is terminated, structural continuity is to be maintained by suitable back-up
structure, fitted in way of the end connection of frames, or the end connection is to be effectively
extended by a bracket or flat bar to an adjacent beam, stiffener, etc.

Longitudinal Side Frames

3.1

Section Modulus
The section modulus, SM, of each longitudinal side frame above the chine or upper turn of bilge is to
be not less than obtained from the following equation:

Peak Frames
5.5.1

General
For vessels 61 m (200 ft.) or greater in length, peak frames are to be efficiently connected to
deep floors of not less thickness than obtained from 3-2-4/1.7 for floors in engine spaces. The
floors are to extend as high as necessary to give lateral stiffness to the structure and are to be
properly stiffened on their upper edges. Care is to be taken in arranging the framing and floors
to assure no wide areas of unsupported plating adjacent to the stem. Breast hooks are to be
arranged at rectangular intervals at and between the stringers above and below the waterline.
In general, the frames above the lowest deck are to be as required by 3-2-5/5, but in vessels
having large flare with unusually long frames, stringers and webs above the lowest deck or
suitably increased frames may be required.

member is continuous over the adjacent spans or is effectively attached to a bulkhead stiffener or
frame or has suitable end connections. Where this is not the case, the member is to be considered
simply-supported. Where weather deck containers are supported by pedestals, the section modulus
required by 3-2-6/1.3, with h equal to the distance between the deck and the underside of the
container, but not greater than 50% of the value given in 3-2-1/1.3.1 through 3-2-1/1.3.6, is to be

13.3.2 Sea Loads

13.3.2(a) Pressures. The following pressures and associated areas are to be applied (see
3-5-1/Figure 2):
-

200 kN/m2 (20.4 tf/m2, 4178 lbf/ft2) normal to the shaft axis and away from the
forward perpendicular, over the projected area in this direction,

150 kN/m2 (15.3 tf/m2, 3133 lbf/ft2) parallel to the shaft axis and acting both inboard
and outboard separately, over the multiple of f times the projected area in this
direction,
where f is defined as:
f

1+B/H , f need not be taken as greater than 2.5

width of windlass measured parallel to the shaft axis

overall height of windlass.

13.3.2(b) Forces. Forces in the bolts, chocks and stoppers securing the windlass to the deck
are to be calculated. The windlass is supported by N groups of bolts, each containing one or
more bolts, see 3-5-1/Figure 2.
i)

Axial Forces. The aggregate axial force Ri in respective group of bolts (or bolt) i,
positive in tension, may be calculated from the following equations:
Rxi = Px hxi Ai/Ix
Ryi = Py hyi Ai/Iy
and
Ri = Rxi + Ryi Rsi
where

ii)

Px

force, kN (tf, lbf), acting normal to the shaft axis

Py

force, kN (tf, lbf), acting parallel to the shaft axis, either inboard
or outboard, whichever gives the greater force in bolt group i

shaft height above the windlass mounting, cm (in.)

xi, yi =

x and y coordinates of bolt group i from the centroid of all N bolt

groups, positive in the direction opposite to that of the applied
force, cm (in.)

Ai

cross sectional area of all bolts in group i, cm2 (in2)

Ix

Ai xi2 for N bolt groups

Iy

Ai yi2 for N bolt groups

Rsi

static reaction at bolt group i, due to weight of windlass.

Shear forces. Aggregated shear forces Fxi, Fyi applied to the respective bolt group i
of bolts, and the resultant combined force Fi may be calculated from:

gravity: 9.81 m/sec2 (32.2 ft/sec2)

number of groups of bolt.

The axial tensile/compressive and lateral forces from the above equations are also to
be considered in the design of the supporting structure.

13.3.2(c) Stresses in Bolts. Tensile axial stresses in the individual bolts in each group of bolt
i are to be calculated. The horizontal forces Fxi and Fyi are normally to be reacted by shear
chocks. Where fitted bolts are designed to support these shear forces in one or both
directions, the von Mises equivalent stresses in the individual fitted bolts are to be
calculated, and compared to the stress under proof load. Where pour-able resins are
incorporated in the holding down arrangements, due account is to be taken in the calculations.
13.3.2(d) Allowable Stress
i)

Bolts. The safety factor against bolt proof strength is to be not less than 2.0.

ii)

Supporting Structures. The stresses in the above deck framing and the hull structure
supporting the windlass are not to exceed the following values:
Bending Stress 85% of the yield strength of the material.
Shearing Stress 60% of the yield strength of the material

Hawse Pipes
Hawse pipes are to be of ample size and strength. They are to have full rounded flanges and the least
possible lead, in order to minimize the nip on the cables. They are to be securely attached to thick
doubling or insert plates by continuous welds the size of which are to be in accordance with Section
3-2-16 for the plating thickness and type of joint selected. When in position they are to be thoroughly
tested for watertightness by means of a hose in which the water pressure is not to be less than 2.06 bar
(2.1 kgf/cm2, 30 psi). Hawse pipes for stockless anchors are to provide ample clearances. The anchors
are to be shipped and unshipped so that the Surveyor may be satisfied that there is no risk of the
anchor jamming in the hawse pipe. Care is to be taken to ensure a fair lead for the chain from the
windlass to the hawse pipes and to the chain pipes.

17

Hawsers and Towlines

Hawsers and towlines are not required as a condition of classification. The hawsers and towlines
listed in 3-5-1/Table 2 are intended as a guide. Where the tabular breaking strength exceeds 490 kN
(50,000 kgf, 110,200 lbf), the breaking strength and the number of individual hawsers given in the
Table may be modified provided their product is not less than that of the breaking strength and the
number of hawsers given in the Table. For vessels having an A/EN ratio greater than 0.9 for metric
units (9.7 for US units), the number of hawsers given in 3-5-1/Table 2 is to be increased by the
number given below.

The weight per anchor of bower anchors given in 3-5-1/Table 1 is for anchors of equal weight. The weight of individual
anchors may vary 7% plus or minus from the tabular weight provided that the combined weight of all anchors is not less
than that required for anchors of equal weight. The total length of chain required to be carried on board, as given in
3-5-1/Table 1, is to be reasonably divided between the two bower anchors. Where three anchors are given in 3-5-1/Table
1, the third anchor is intended as spare bower anchor and is listed for guidance only; it is not required as a condition of
classification.

Wire ropes may be used in lieu of chain cables for both anchors on vessels less than 30 m (98.4 ft) in length. For
vessels between 30 m (8.4 ft) and 40 m (131.2 ft) in length, wire rope may be used in lieu of chain cable for one
anchor, provided normal chain cable is provided for the second anchor.
The wire is to have a breaking strength not less than the grade 1 chain of required size and a length of at least 1.5 times
the chain it is replacing.
Between the wire rope and anchor, chain cable of the required size having a length of 12.5 m (41.0 ft.), or the distance

Wire ropes may be used in lieu of chain cables for both anchors on vessels less than 30 m (98.4 ft) in length. For
vessels between 30 m (8.4 ft) and 40 m (131.2 ft) in length, wire rope may be used in lieu of chain cable for one
anchor, provided normal chain cable is provided for the second anchor.
The wire is to have a breaking strength not less than the grade 1 chain of required size and a length of at least 1.5 times
the chain it is replacing.
Between the wire rope and anchor, chain cable of the required size having a length of 12.5 m (41.0 ft.), or the distance
between anchor in stored position and winch, whichever is less, is to be fitted.

subsequent Special Periodical Survey. The test is to be conducted to manufacturers
recommendations.

Static Bollard Pull Test (2001)

The static bollard pull test procedure is to be submitted for review by the attending Surveyor in
advance of the test.
The requirements for conducting a bollard pull test on vessels of duplicate design will be specially
considered on a case-by-case basis.
The static bollard pull is to be measured with the tug at the maximum continuous rpm and at or near
the maximum towing depth. The towed vessel is to be in ballast condition but need not be down to
the summer load line mark.
The static bollard pull is the pull that is recorded over the state of equilibrium without any tendency to
decline.
The depth of water under the keel in the testing area should be at least two times the vessel draft at
amidship.
For additional test criteria, see Appendix 5-8-A2 Guidelines for Bollard Pull Test Procedure of
these Rules.

Intact Stability Guidelines for

Towing Vessels (1998)

General
The intact stability of each towing vessel is to be evaluated for the loading conditions indicated in
5-8-A1/7 for compliance with the intact stability criteria in Section 5-8-2, and the results are to be
submitted.
For every loading condition, which is to be shown in the Trim and Stability Booklet, the righting arm
curve (GZ curve) should be plotted using the VCG corrected for the free surface effects of liquid in
tanks.

Submission of Plans
The following drawings are to be submitted with the Trim and Stability Booklet for our review:

i)

General arrangement plan

ii)

Capacity plan or table with centers of gravity

iii)

Lines plan

iv)

Hydrostatic curve or table

v)

Cross curves of stability

vi)

Downflooding angle versus draft curve. The downflooding angle is the first of the angle of
heel at which openings in the hull, superstructures, or deck houses which cannot be closed
weathertight, immerse.

Intact Stability Criteria

The following stability criteria are to be complied with:
i)

The area under the righting lever curve (GZ curve) should not be less than 0.055 meterradians (10.3 ft-degrees) up to = 30 angle of heel and not less than 0.09 meter-radians
(16.9 ft-degrees) up to = 40 or the angle of flooding f if this angle is less than 40.
Additionally, the area under the righting lever curve (GZ curve) between the angles of heel of
30 and 40 or between 30 and f, if this angle is less than 40, is not to be less than 0.03
meter-radians (5.6 ft-degrees).

Standard Loading Conditions

7.1

Loading Conditions
The following conditions of loading are to be examined in the Trim and Stability Booklet:

7.3

i)

vessel with full stores and fuel;

ii)

vessel with 10 percent stores and fuel remaining;

iii)

any other normal conditions both departure and arrival the Owner feels are appropriate, or
more suitable to the vessels trade.

Load Considerations
The following are the assumptions for calculating loading conditions:

18

i)

In Loading Condition 5-8-A1/7.1i) above, it should be assumed that the vessel is loaded to her
assigned load line with water ballast tanks empty.

ii)

If any loading condition water ballast is necessary, additional diagrams should be calculated
taking into account the water ballast. Its quantity and disposition should be stated.

iii)

In calculating the free surface corrections, it should be assumed that for each type of liquid, at
least one transverse pair or a single centerline tank has a free surface and the tank or
combination of tanks is to be taken into account should be those where the effect of free
surface is the greatest.

5-8-A1

Heeling Arm Curve

The heeling moment due to the towline pull should be calculated using the corresponding percentage
of the maximum bollard pull, depending on the type of propulsion (see below), at right angles to the
vessels fore and aft axis. The resultant moment should be converted to a heeling arm and plotted on
the same graph as the righting arm curve (GZ curve). The heeling arm curve can be taken to vary with
the cosine of the heeling angle.
Regarding the bollard pull force, the value is usually requested as it is derived from the actual test at
maximum RPM. However, in preliminary considerations a calculated value would be accepted based
on the corresponding value of pounds of bollard pull force per SHP depending on the type of
propulsion (see 5-8-A1/Table 1). The heeling arm should be taken from the top of the towing bitt to
the VCB, or for an approximation to 1/2 the mean draft.

11

Trim and Stability Booklet

The Master of the vessel should receive information in the Trim and Stability Booklet, regarding
ballasting, towing, etc., to ensure that the stability is in compliance with the criteria given in 5-8-A1/5.
The Trim and Stability Booklet should also contain a table giving the free surface moments for all
tanks designed for liquid. If any set of tanks are cross-connected, the free surface moment shall be
calculated about the vessels centerline.

Guidelines for Bollard Pull Test

Procedure (2001)

General
This Appendix is prepared as a guide for compliance with the requirements of 5-8-6/3.
Prior to conducting the steady bollard pull test, a written request should be received from the owner of
ABS attendance and addressing items 5-8-A2/3.15 and 5-8-A2/3.17 below. Only ABS-classed
vessels may be attended for the test.

Steady Bollard Pull Test Requirements

3.1
The towing vessel should be on an even keel or trimmed to the intended operating condition in tow.

3.3
The draft of the towing vessel should be equal to or deeper than ballast condition, but need not be
down to the summer load line mark.

3.5
Depth of water under the keel and on each side of the vessel should be at least 2 vessel draft at
midship.

3.7
If current exceeds 1 knot, its effect is to be subtracted from the bollard pull by either:
i)

Direct measurement of drag effect (pulling direction downstream) and reduction of bollard
pull accordingly; or,

ii)

Conducting pull test both upstream and downstream and averaging the results.

3.9
The distance from the stern of the towing vessel to the bollard (fixed point) should be at least two ship
lengths and be unobstructed by submerged pilings, bulwarks etc.

Guidelines for Bollard Pull Test Procedure

5-8-A2

3.11
Wind speed should be 10 mph or less, or such that it does not measurably effect the bollard pull
results.

3.13
Sea condition should be calm.

3.15
A statement should be obtained from the vessels Master or Owners Representative that the
propellers are those approved by ABS for the vessel.

3.17
The Owners should be satisfied as to the structural adequacy of the towing hawser, towing winch or
tow bitts employed during the test.

3.19
The vessels stability letter should include the towing condition.

3.21
The dynamometer (load cell) used for the test should be calibrated and suitable for use in the
horizontal position. It should be fitted with swivels or should be torque insensitive, such as a
hydraulic dynamometer. It should be easily read from a safe location or a remote readout should be
provided. A continuous recording device is suggested but not mandatory. It is suggested that the
maximum scale reading be, as a minimum, at least equal to [Max. Cont. Total H.P. 50 (LBS.)]. The
dynamometer should be located at the ashore end of the tow hawser.

3.23
The vessels main engines should not be adjusted to operate in overload condition. Engine overspeed
trip setting should be verified prior to commencing the test.

3.25
The Steady Bollard Pull should be computed as the average of evenly spaced load cell recordings
taken over a sustained pull interval of 3 to 5 minutes. If the tow hawser is not horizontal, the vertical
angle of the hawser is to be measured and used to obtain the actual horizontal thrust.
Engine temperatures should be at steady state during the test run. Engines should be operated at the
ABS maximum continuous horsepower (certified horsepower per the Record) during the test.
Instantaneous spike bollard pull readings should be ignored.

3.27
Two surveyors are required when conducting the test, one ashore and one in the engine room. A twoway voice communication system is to be provided for the test.
