MV3304 Ship Construction Syllabus – Anna University Regulation 2021
COURSE OBJECTIVE:
• Understand the Ships terms and stresses onboard ships structure.
• Determine the Primary and Secondary girders used onboard ships.
• Distinguish between Fore-end and After-end arrangements onboard ships.
• Understand the free board and Tonnage onboard ships.
• Acquire the knowledge of Off shore Technology and Ship’s Survey.
UNIT I SHIP TERMS
Various terms used in ship construction with reference to ship’s parameter e.g. L.B.P. – Moulded Depth – Moulded draught etc. – General classification of ships. Stresses in Ship’s structure: Hogging – Sagging – Racking – Pounding – Panting etc., and Strength members to counteract the same. Sections And Materials Use: Type of sections like angles – Bulb plates flanged beams used in ship construction – Process of welding. Riveting & Welding testing of welds – Fabricated components.
UNIT II BOTTOM & SIDE FRAMING
Double bottoms, watertight floors solid and bracket floors – Longitudinal framing keels – side framing like tank side brackets – Beam knee – Web frame etc., Shell & Decks: Plating systems for shells – Deck plating & Deck Girders –discontinuities like hatches and other openings – supporting & closing arrangements –mid-ship section of ships. Bulk Heads & Deep Tanks: water tight bulkheads – Arrangement of plating and stiffeners – water tight sliding doors – Water tight openings through bulkheads for electric cables pipes and shafting – Deep tank for oil fuel or oil cargo corrugated bulk heads.
UNIT III FORE & AFT END ARRANGEMENTS
Fore end arrangement, arrangements to resist pounding bulbous bow – Types of sterns stern frame and rudder – Types of rudder – Supporting of rudder – Locking pintle – Bearing pintle – Pallister, bearing shaft tunnel – Tunnel bearings.
UNIT IV FREE BOARD AND TONNAGE
Significance and details of markings various international Regulations. Plimsol LineShipyard Practice – layout of a shipyard – Mould loft –Optical marking – Automatic plate cutting, Fabrication and assembly etc., Ship Types -Tankers, Ventilation arrangements for pump rooms, holds and oil fuel tanks – Bulk Carriers, Arrangement for the carriage of dangerous goods in bulk– Container ships – L.N.G., L.P.G., and Chemical carriers – Lash ships – Passenger ships – Dredgers – Tugs etc., – Constructional details and requirements.
UNIT V OFFSHORE TECHNOLOGY
Drilling ships and Platforms – Supply vessels – fire fighting arrangement – Pipe laying ships – special auxiliary service ships. Ship Surveys : Survey rules – Functions of ship classification – Societies – Surveys during construction – Periodical surveys for retention of class.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
