First training for new common structural rules

30 participants from 14 companies from the Chinese shipbuilding industry accomplished the first ever training course for the new common structural rules at the DNV Academy in Shanghai.

“DNV has played a central role in the development of the common structural rules and we are now scaling up our operations in China to assist our clients in implementing the rules for their upcoming hull development projects,” says Bjørn K. Haugland, regional manager for DNV in China.

The training was performed using the Nauticus Hull software suite facilitating hands-on testing of the new rules.

The four-day course in Shanghai included a detailed presentation of the new rules followed by hands-on training on rule scantling analysis, fatigue analysis, and finite element cargo hold analysis in Nauticus Hull. Extra focus was put on result analysis and comparison between the new and old hull rules.
