Abstract

In this study, an improved aluminum alloy (6082-T6) was used to develop a unique model of an aluminum ladder for usage in offshore plant. The structural strength design was carried out in accordance with international standards such as ISO, NORSOK Austria Standard. Load combination was performed to satisfy all conditions. The structural safety of the designed model was verified using SACS, an analysis program for offshore plants based on the Finite elements method. The analysis results confirmed that both stress and deflection were satisfied within the acceptance criteria. The developed model can be applied used in various fields in the near future as it meets all the necessary criteria and is lightweight and has improved productivity.

본 논문에서는 해양플랜트에 주로 사용되는 알루미늄 사다리의 독자 모델을 개발하기 위하여, 개량형 알루미늄 합금(6082-T6)을 적용하고 국제 기준에 부합한 구조강도 설계를 하였다. 국제기준은 ISO, NORSOK, Austria Standard를 참고하였으며, 모든 조건이 만족할 수 있도록 하중 조합을 하였다. 설계된 모델은 유한요소법 [Finite elements method]을 근간으로 하는 해양플랜트 전용 해석프로그램인 SACS를 사용하여 구조 안전성을 검증하여 응력 및 처짐이 모두 허용기준 이내에 만족함을 확인하였다. 개발모델은 모든 허용기준을 만족하면서도 가볍고, 생산성이 향상되어 향후 많은 분야에서 사용이 될 것으로 기대해본다.
