This section includes bottom shell plating, side shell plating, bilge and
tunnel plating and deck house.
Scantlings
In this section side shell plating amidships and bottom shell plating
amidships are included.
The thickness of the side shell plating within 0.4L amidships, is not be
less than obtained from the following equations;
t = 0.07L + 0.007 s mm for L 150 m Eq 5.19
t = 0.03L + 0.007 s + 6.0 mm for L > 150 m
t = 0.00084 L + 0.007 s in for L 492 ft
t = 0.00036 L + 0.007 s + 0.236 in for L > 492 ft
s stiffeners spacing, in mm ( in ) 500mm
L Length between perpendiculars 24.3 m
The thickness of the side shell plating within 0.4L amidships, is not be
less than obtained from the following equations;
t = 0.045 L + 0.007 s +1.8 mm for L 123 m Eq 5.20
t = 0.08 L + 0.007 s 2.5 mm for L > 123 m
t = 0.00054 L + 0.007 s + 0.07 in for L 405 m
t = 0.00096 L + 0.007 s 0.1 in for L > 405 ft
Where the bow is ship-shape form, the thickness of the plating below
the waterline for the forward 0.16L is not less than obtained from the
following equations, but need not be greater than the thickness of the side
shell plating amidships.
t = 0.05 L + 0.009s - 1.0 mm Eq 5.23
t = 0.0006L + 0.009s -0.04 in
s stiffeners spacing, in mm ( in ) 500mm
L Length between perpendiculars 24.3 m
t = 4.715 mm Choose 8 mm thickness plate
