📌 Mission Objective

For a sensitive cargo transport, our client entrusted us with the structural verification of its inland vessel under the design loads (cargo, stillwater, wave and inertia forces) for all phases of the transport, from loading inland to unloading at sea.

🧠 Approach & Actions

• Review of vessel drawings and standards
• Development of the design basis (NR217)
• Finite Element modelling of the hull
• Cargo locals application
• Model balancing for required girder loads
• Strength assessment of the hull
• Conclusions and Reporting

🗃️ Deliverables

• Structural assessment report of the vessel

🛠️ Tools and Rules

• Bureau Veritas - NR217 part B
• Femap (NX Nastran) SOL101
