Abstract

The article provides the characteristics of the software developed to perform the hull structural strength verification for oil tankers and bulk carriers in accordance with IACS Common Structural Rules. The characteristics of several software modules, intended for the preparation of input data required to check the ship structures for compliance with Common Structure Rules global and local strength criteria are also given, together with the description of the main steps necessary to prepare geometrical models and structural databases for hull girder cross-section, flat and corrugated bulkheads. The pictures of the software interface are provided, as well as the software menu structure description.

Keywords: IACS Common Structure Rules, software, input data preparation, ship structure, oil tankers, bulk carriers.
