Abstract

Side frames of a typical single side bulk carrier is a critical structure to carry the pressure of both the outboard seawater and the cargo in the hold and to play the role of connecting the top side tank and the lower side tank. The effective connection between the upper and lower ends of the side frame and other structures is particularly important. The IACS (International Association of Classification Societies) CSR (Common Structure Rule) [1] has emphasized requirements for the structure type here. In this paper, we study the stresses at the end connection of the side frames through the derivation of mechanical equations and finite element modeling calculations, analyze the requirements of the IACS CSR specification. It is proved that when using the IACS CSR to calculate the area of support bracket and end bracket size, we can also use required minimum parameters rather than the actual parameters. This paper also gives the prerequisites.
