    In designing port facilities, including fenders, the dimen- sions ofthe Design Vessel (DV) are one of the mast impor- tant conditions, The DV is the largest vessel among those that are expected to use the facility. Ifthe DV has been specified previously, the dimensions ofthis specified ves- sel are used. IF not, the dimensions are calculated by the ship type and DWT (Dead Weight Tonnage) / GRT (Gross Registered Tonnage) of the DV. For this purpose, the relations of ship dimensions and DWT / GRY are analysed. The processed data is mainly from Lloyd’ Register of Shipping (June 1995) to determine the dimensions of the DV. This database of vessel dimensions is one ofthe mast reliable in the world. Lloyd's Register of Shipping, how- ever, does not provide the projected wind areas of ships ‘Therefore, Ports & Harbour Research Institute (PH.R.D) and Port and Harbour Burcau of M.O.T, had collected the projected wind areas of ships using the results of ques- tionnaires sent to Japanese shipyards and Nippon Kaiji Kyokai. It must be noted thatthe reliability of the analy sis of projected wind areas is not as accurate as that ofthe ther ship dimensions, because the number of vessel wind areas data is much smaller than that of the ether dimen- sions. ‘Vessel dimensions vary according to the type. The type of DV should be determined as accurately as possible. For this Appendix, the DV is divided into 8 types, based on the classification of Lloyd’s Register of Shipping General Cargo, Bulk Carrier Vessel, Container Vessel, Oil ‘Tanker, Ro/Ro Vessel, Passenger Liner and Ferry and Gas Carrer. SE IVE! LL DIMENSIONS WITE CONFIDENCE LIME T When designing port facilities, the confidence limit should be determined considering the function, the usage, the environmental condition, the Design Vessel, ete, for the pattcular facilities, using engineering experience Table C-I shows ship dimensions for $0% and 75% confi- dence levels, The dimensions of the DV can be determined using this table. For comparison of displacements, Including 95%, for use with the initial design, Table C-2is| provided The choice of DWT or GRT depends upon the type of ves- sel. A vessel carrying heavy cargo is adequately expressed by DWT, while a vessel carrying light cargo is adequately expressed by GRT, Because DWT is the measure signify- ing weight, while GRT is the measure signifying volume, The relation between vessel type and explanatory variable Js defined as: DWT: General Cargo Ship, Bulk Cartier, Container Ship, il tanker and Ro/Ro Ship GRT: Passenger Ship, Ferry and Gas Carrer ‘The relations between Dead Weight Tonnage and Gross Registered Tonnage of each ship type ean be taken as fol- lows: General Cargo GRT=0.712 DWT Bulk Cartier GRT= 0.538 DWT Container GRT=0.880 DWT i Tanker GRT= 0.553 DWT. Ro/Ro GRT= 1.217 DWT Passenger Liner GRT = 7.657 DWT. Ferry GRT = 4.490 DWT. Gas Carrier GRT= 1.185 DWT. For other confidence levels itis suggested thatthe techni- eal note of the Port and Harbour Research Institute, Ministry of Transport, Japan. No 911 September 1998, “Ship Dimensions of Design Ship under Given Confidence Limits * be used All analysis in Appendix C has been carried out byYasuhiro Akakura (Systems Laboratory, Planning, and Design Standard Division, Port and Harbour Research Institute, Ministry of Transport, Japan. 57 Report of Working Group 33 - MARCOM Please note that the 95% confidence limits in that docu- sent should be used with extreme cate. It is considered that up fo the 50% to 75% limits ae accurate and more appropriate to use than the dimensions given for the 95% confidence limit fr intial design purposes (see Table C-1), However, for deciding the mass of vessel without actual dimensions or figures, Table C-2 has boon given, a8 un aid, It should further be noted that PIANC Working Group 30 Report, June 1997 “Approach Channels. A guide 10 design“ also contains a table of typical ship dimensions as Appendix B p 72. This is useful as another reference but there is no source quoted. It does give Figures for rmuch larger vessels in each vessel type. ‘Appendix C.
