Ship Weight Estimation
For the calculation of Deadweight and Displacement, the method specified in the RINA Transaction
1977 “Some Ship Design Methods” by Watson and Gilfillan.
LBP = 62.64 m
𝐵 = 14.735 m
𝑇 = 5.095 m
𝐷 = 6.85m
𝐶𝐵 = 0.717
Displacement Δ:
Δ = C𝐵 . L . B . T . . (1 + s)
where s is taken as 0.006
= 4848.9021 t
Steel Mass:
Steel weight for actual CB1 at 0.8D is given by;
𝐶1 = 𝐶 + (1 − 𝐶 ). (0.8D − T)
𝐵 𝐵 𝐵
3𝑇
= 0.724357
𝑊𝑆7 = 𝐾. 𝐸1.36
K = 0.041~0.051 (for Offshore Vessels)
K is taken as 0.045
Thus,
WS7 = 1352.567217 t
WS = 1356.702 t
Machinery Weight:
Outfit Mass:
𝑊𝑂 = 𝐾. 𝐿. 𝐵
where K is taken as 0.3
= 367.2 t
= 2818.094738 t
Available Deadweight:
Available Deadweight = Total Mass Displacement – Lightship Mass
= 3088.344062 t
Available Deadweight is more than Required Deadweight.
