shipbuilding
lets purchase a ship
2
the start
client, the future ship-owner:
makes or has a designer make a
design
or chooses for a standard design
(stock design) adapted to his wishes
(cheaper)
3
the design
concept
what does he want to use it for:
his own liner service
tramp trade managed by himself
to bring into the market as bareboat
charter, managed by a charterer
4
the design
the first requirements:
type of ship
deadweight
principal dimensions and maximum
draught
(for big ships Panama Canal, Suez
Canal, and Malacca Strait are
important restrictions for the
dimensions
speed
range
5
the design
the first requirements:
type of ship
passenger ship
reefer ship
containership
tanker
crude
product
chemical or parcel
bulk carrier
6
the design
the first requirements:
deadweight
will it carry a large amount of
lightweight cargo
needs a lot of space with a relative small
deadweight
will it carry heavyweight cargo
only needs restricted cargo space with a lot
of deadweight
7
the design
the first requirements:
principal dimensions and maximum
draught
draught restrictions mean more
beam or length
beam or length restrictions mean a
increase of draught
8
dimensions
bow
stern
aft perpendicular (App)
rudderstock
forward
perpendicular
(Fpp)
Length between perpendiculars
Length over all
depth
freeboard
draft
beam
cwl
airdraft
baseline
centre line
L
c
starboard
port
L
9
the design
the first requirements:
speed
more speed means a stronger engine,
more space and weight for the engine
but also for the fuel
range
the more the range the more the
bunker capacity
10
the design
preliminary layout
general arrangement for discussion
yard tender for building costs and
delivery period
building contract possibly with
penalty clause (eg there is already
a charter and the vessel has to be
delivered in time)
11
the order
complete the design. often a company
captain and chief engineer are
involved in this stage.
a lines plan is made (outlining the
exact shape of the hull)
sometimes hydrodynamic tests in
towing tanks are carried out
(nowadays very often a computer
program simulation)
the specifications
12
specifications
essential qualities and characteristics
principal dimensions
deadweight, cargo and tank
capacities
speed and power requirements
stability requirements
quality and standard of workmanship
13
specifications
survey and certificates
accommodation details
equipment and fittings
machinery details, including the
electrical installation is usually
produced in a separate specification
14

the main problem:


combining the economical desires
with the technical and legal
limitations
and the budget
15
the problem
eg
de proportional relation between
deadweight and displacement as large as
possible
conclusion a very light displacement ship
with a lot of deadweight
reliable
maintenance free
no crew
fuel economical and still as fast as possible
easy and fast to load and discharge
(quick rotation)
16
