Hull structure Summary of

The new advanced load concept is a major step towards a more

realistic representation of the environmental loads.

Along with our state-of-the-art capacity models, this concept will

increase the consistency in the safety level applied for the
complete hull structure.
In addition, this approach will also accommodate the challenges
related to development of novel and unusual designs.
