Global strength check for TLP tendon body can be estimated based on maximum tendon tensions and bending moments, which are resulted in TLP global performance analysis. Final tendon length, especially thread length on Length Adjustment Joint, is easily calculated with water depth at TLP in-place location, TLP lock-off draft and unlocking length of tendon bottom section. And LAJ thread length, which is locked with TLP top tendon connector, should be carefully determined with tendon design and installation tolerances.
