Part 5 Chapter 1 Section Application Unless otherwise specified in the following sub-sections, the requirements given in this section is applicable to bulk carriers and dry cargo ships given in Sec.5 to Sec.9. For ships assigned the ship type notation Bulk carrier (with CSR) only the requirements given in [6.1] and [6.3] are applicable. 2 Structural design principles 2.1 Structural arrangement - double side structure Primary supporting members Double side web frames shall be fitted in line with primary supporting members in double bottom or in hopper tanks, where fitted, or aligned with large brackets. Where top side tanks are fitted, double side web frames shall be aligned with web frames or large brackets. Transverse primary supporting members shall be fitted in way of hatch end beams or similar large deck opening supporting transverse structure. Horizontal side stringers or scarfing brackets shall be fitted aft of the collision bulkhead in line with fore peak stringers, and forward of engine room bulkhead in line with platform decks in machinery spaces Plating connections Inner hull plating and hopper tank structures, where fitted, shall be supported at forward and aft ends, e.g. by scarfing brackets in way of the collision bulkhead and the engine room bulkhead. Connection between the inner hull plating and the inner bottom plating shall be designed such that stress concentration is minimised. Connections of hopper tank plating with inner hull and with inner bottom shall be supported by a longitudinal girder. When a hopper tank is not fitted, the inner hull plating shall be supported by a longitudinal girder below the inner bottom plating and the inner bottom plating shall be supported by scarfing brackets.

Such loading needs special consideration with additional strength requirements that are outlined in this section. 1.2 Scope This section describes requirements for steel coil loading, including: [2]: Steel coil loads in cargo holds [3]: Hull local scantling. 1.3 Application The rules in this section apply to all ships loaded with steel coils on wooden dunnage. Ships assigned the ship type notation Bulk carrier (with CSR) are exempted from these requirements. Part 5 Chapter 1 Section 3 2 Steel coil loads in cargo holds 2.1 General Application In Figure 1 typical loading of steel coils on wooden dunnage can be seen. It is assumed that all the steel coils have the same characteristics. In cases where steel coils are lined up in two or more tiers, formulae in [2.1.2] and [2.2] can be applied assuming that only the lowest tier of steel coils is in contact with hopper sloping plate or inner side plate. In other cases, scantling requirements shall be determined on a case-by-case basis. Figure 1 Inner bottom loaded by steel coils The two following arrangements of steel coils on the inner bottom are considered: the steel coils are positioned without respect to the location of the floors, as shown in Figure 2 the steel coils are positioned with respect to the location of the floors, as shown in Figure 3.

Each cargo hold shall be considered individually flooded to the equilibrium waterline. The permissible vertical still water bending moment and shear force in flooded condition at sea at any longitudinal position shall envelope the most severe flooded seagoing loading conditions defined in the loading manual, i.e. all seagoing loaded and ballast conditions. Flooding check of harbour conditions, docking condition afloat, loading/unloading sequences and ballast water exchange are not applicable Flooding criteria To calculate the mass of water ingress, the following assumptions shall be made: the permeability of empty cargo spaces and volume left in loaded cargo spaces above any cargo shall be taken as 0.95 appropriate permeabilities and bulk densities shall be used for any cargo carried. For iron ore, a minimum permeability of 0.3 with a corresponding bulk density of 3.0 t/m 3 shall be used. For cement, a minimum permeability of 0.3 with a corresponding bulk density of 1.3 t/m 3 shall be used. In this respect, permeability for solid bulk cargo means the ratio of the floodable volume between the particles, granules or any larger pieces of the cargo, to the gross volume of the bulk cargo. For packed cargo conditions (such as steel mill products), the actual density of the cargo shall be used with a permeability of zero. Part 5 Chapter 1 Section Vertically corrugated transverse watertight bulkheads Application The pressure defined in this sub-section applies to vertically corrugated transverse watertight bulkheads of the cargo holds of dry cargo ships for the assessment in flooded conditions. Each cargo hold shall be considered individually flooded, see Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure General The loads to be considered as acting on each bulkhead are those given by the combination of loads induced by cargo loads with those induced by the flooded loads of one hold adjacent to the bulkhead under examination. In any case, the pressure due to the flooded loads without cargo shall also be considered. The most severe combinations of cargo induced loads and flooded loads shall be used for the check of the scantlings of each bulkhead, depending on the loading conditions included in the loading manual considering the individual flooded condition of both loaded and empty holds: homogeneous loading conditions non-homogeneous loading conditions. For the purpose of this section, the following items are defined as: design load limits: the specified design load limits for the cargo holds shall be represented by loading conditions defined by the designer in the loading manual maximum cargo mass to consider: Rules for classification: Ships DNVGL-RU-SHIP-Pt5Ch1.

For ships having a length L of not less than 150 m, with container transporting capabilities on deck and/or in holds, a homogeneous container load combination at scantling draught and with permissible still water hogging bending moment in seagoing condition will be required on a case-by-case basis. Guidance note: FE design load combination LC1 for Container ships given in Ch.2 Sec.6 Table 1 may be used as guidance for the dynamic load cases. Part 5 Chapter 1 Section 5 ---e-n-d---of---g-u-i-d-a-n-c-e---n-o-t-e Required loading pattern for ships having a long centre cargo hold For ships having a long centre cargo hold, and typically equipped with a short hold in fore area and/or aft area, maximum deflection of ship s double-side and strengthening with respect to block loading needs to be specially considered. Such ships may also be geared with cranes located in way of the ship s double-side intended for heavy lifting operations with significant crane reactions that need to be assessed. The following seagoing loading patterns are in general to be considered, see also Table 1: a) cargo hold carrying M IB with P dl-s distributed at mid-length position, with no deck load, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC b) cargo hold carrying M IB with P dl-s distributed at aft-length and fore-length position, with no deck load, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC c) deck carrying 0.8M Deck with P C distributed at mid-length position, with cargo hold carrying M IB - 0.8M Deck with tank top pressures distributed with the same longitudinal extent as on deck, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC d) deck carrying 0.8M Deck with P C distributed at aft-length and fore-length position, with cargo hold carrying M IB - 0.8M Deck with tank top pressures distributed with the same longitudinal extent as on deck, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC e) cargo hold carrying M H, with no deck load, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC f) cargo hold carrying 0.5M IB with tank top pressures applied to the whole inner bottom, with tween deck at highest position carrying M tweendk with P dl-s distributed at mid-length position, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC g) cargo hold taken empty, with no deck load, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks way of the cargo hold being 100% full, at the deepest ballast draught T B. The following additional harbour loading patterns shall be considered, see also Table 1: h) cargo hold carrying M IB with P dl-s distributed at mid-length position, with no deck load, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC i) cargo hold carrying M IB with P dl-s distributed at aft-length and fore-length position, with no deck load, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC.

86 If the ship is geared with cranes located in way of the ship s double-side and intended for heavy lifting operations with SWL not less than 150 t per crane, the following additional loading patterns applies, see also Table 1: j) cranes carrying SWL at maximum outboard outreach, with cargo hold being empty, with all anti heeling tanks at one side being 100% full, at 75% of scantling draught k) cranes carrying SWL at maximum inboard outreach, with cargo hold being empty, with all double bottom water ballast tanks in way of the cargo hold being 100% full, at 75% of scantling draught l) cranes carrying SWL at maximum outboard outreach, with cargo hold carrying 0.8M IB with P dl-s distributed at aft-length and fore-length position, with all anti heeling tanks at one side being 100% full, at scantling draught T SC m) cranes carrying SWL at maximum inboard outreach, with cargo hold carrying 0.8M IB with P dl-s distributed at aft-length and fore-length position, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC n) cranes carrying SWL at maximum outboard outreach, with cargo hold carrying 0.8M IB with P dl-s distributed at mid-length position, with all anti heeling tanks at one side being 100% full, at scantling draught T SC o) cranes carrying SWL at maximum inboard outreach, with cargo hold carrying 0.8M IB with P dl-s distributed at mid-length position, with all water ballast and fuel oil tanks in way of the cargo hold being empty, at scantling draught T SC. Part 5 Chapter 1 Section Standard FE design load combinations for cargo hold analysis of a long centre cargo hold In Table 1 standard design load combinations for cargo hold FE analysis of a long centre cargo hold are shown. Guidance note: Further explanations of the columns in Table 1 are given in the Society's document DNVGL CG 0127 Sec.3 [4.4]. ---e-n-d---of---g-u-i-d-a-n-c-e---n-o-t-e--- The design load combinations in Table 1 are representing block loading patterns, homogenous bulk loading pattern, crane loading patterns, and ballast loading pattern given in the loading manual in accordance with [4.2.4]. If the ship has a length L of not less than 150 m, with container transporting capabilities on deck and/or in holds, additional design load combination in accordance with [4.2.3] may be required on a case-bycase basis. If the loading manual is representing more decisive loading patterns than what is covered in [4.2.4] additional design load combinations will be required on a case-by-case basis. In Table 1 only loading patterns in way of the long centre cargo hold are shown. If the ship is equipped with a short hold in fore area and/or aft area adjacent to the long centre cargo hold that will be included in the FE model, the following applies in general: a) For loading patterns representing homogeneous loading conditions(e.g. homogeneous dry bulk cargo loading, ballast condition and container loading), the same loading patterns shall be applied the short hold in fore area and/or aft area as for the long centre cargo hold. b) For loading patterns representing block loading conditions, loading patterns shall be applied to the short hold in fore area and/or aft area giving the most unfavourable strength results of the double bottom in way of the long centre cargo hold. E.g. when the centre cargo hold has no block loading adjacent to the transverse bulkheads the adjacent holds shall have maximum loading, and when the centre cargo hold has block loading adjacent to the traverse bulkheads the adjacent holds shall be empty. c) For loading patterns representing crane lifting operations at partial draught with cranes outboard (with all cargo holds being empty and no deck load), all anti heeling tanks on one side shall be full. d) For loading patterns representing crane lifting operations at partial draught with cranes inboard (with all cargo holds being empty and no deck load), all double bottom ballast tanks in way of the short hold in fore area and/or aft area shall be full. e) For loading patterns representing crane lifting operations at scantling draught, loading patterns shall be applied to the short hold in fore area and/or aft area giving the most unfavourable strength results of the Rules for classification: Ships DNVGL-RU-SHIP-Pt5Ch1.
