Stress concentration in the deck round hatch openings


Holes cut in the deck plating by way of hatchways, masts and others create areas of high local stress due to lack of continuity created by the opening.

Compensation for loss of strength at hatch openings

Compensation around some of these openings may be overcome by increasing the sizes of the material used, buy a careful disposition of the material and
by paying careful attention to the structural design.

Compensating for the stress concentration around hatch corners by rounding off the square hatch corner ends

The corners radiused to reduce the stress concentration

The basic idea of a bulkhead in addition to the water tight integrity is to add to the girder strength of the ship beam.
Thus for a transverse bulkhead, which extends from the port to the starboard side or vice versa, the framing is done in a vertical manner so that the
compressive and the tensile stress may be reduced for the beam.

Similarly for a longitudinal bulkhead which runs parallel to the shipside the framing is done vertically, again so that the additional strength would enhance
the stress compensating effect of the ship beam.

Purpose of bilge keels and their attachment to the ship’s side


Bilge keels are fitted at the turn of the bilge to resist rolling. They also improve the steering qualities of the ship – though very slightly.

The ends are to be gradually tapered and should not end on an un-stiffened panel.

Stress relieving while fitting the bilge keel

Hold drainage systems


The hold drainage system of older cargo vessels had limber board covered upper side of the tank side bracket areas. The drainage conduit was these areas
and the pipelines were connected to the after ends, which passed through the lightening holes in the DB’s.

The limber boards were removable for cleaning as they were frequently damaged (edges) leaving gaps through which cargo residue would accumulate.
Modern ships do not have the side bilges and have only a strum box at the after end of the holds and these are connected in the similar way to pipelines,
which run through the DB’s.
