Sea Fastening Calculations
Design and verification of sea-fastening arrangements for barge and vessel cargoes.
Overview
Sea fastening secures cargo against the motions and accelerations of an ocean voyage. We design and verify grillage, stopper and welded fastening arrangements against project-specific motion criteria and Class rules.
Deliverables include fastening drawings, welding schedules and a stand-alone calculation report.
