IRClass, the Indian classification society, has released its new technical software, IR-HULL, develop specifically to verify all aspects of ship design compliance to its established Rules and Regulations for the Construction and Classification of Steel Ships.
The new IR-HULL software analyses global strength (including both longitudinal and buckling strength) and local scantling for all panels and stiffeners in a vessel’s hull section. IR-HULL is equipped with a user-friendly graphical interface and an intuitive modeller with CAD drawing tools to significantly reduce data entry time.
“IR-HULL is agile, versatile, and can be simply applied to multiple ship types,” said Arun Sharma, Chairman and Managing Director of IRClass.
N Girish, Head – Research & Innovation Centre added, “We are delighted to have developed this new software solution which delivers a range of prescriptive assessment tools and provides results in standardised reports for quick and easy user comprehension, which ultimately facilitates safer ship design.”
IR-HULL software is available to ship owners, designers, consultants and shipyards. fii-news.com
