During assembling the ship block, the lifting and turnover events are not only inevitable but also very important for safety aspects and block accuracy. However, they have been executed in empirical ways rather than numerical ways in consideration of the building schedule. In this paper, a structural analysis has been carried out for the container ship side block that collapsed in the course turnover stage. As a result, the causes of collapse and countermeasure plans are presented.

This paper introduces DS/Block-Structure - a structural analysis module of DS/Block, which is a Design System to simulate the behavior of a ship block in various crane operations and to evaluate its structural deformation using the finite element method. It runs based on a CAD program, Pro/ENGINEER, and structural analyses are performed by a developed FE code. Boundary conditions for the FE analysis of a ship block under lifting and turnover operation are also considered.

A comprehensive extension of functions and efficiency of the software system, DS/Block, developed earlier for the purpose of simulation of the motion of a ship block during lifting and turnover operation. A viewpoint change used in 3D-CAD is utilized and saves the time for displays of a series of configurations for the motion. The Euler parameters are adopted to convert 3 rotational degrees of freedom about global coordinate system to those about local coordinate system defined in Pro/ENGINEER. DS/Block provides FEM input data for stress and strain analyses. Several functions are incorporated for user-friendliness. DS/Block is to be tested and installed in a shipyard.

The increasing demands of lifting lugs can be attributed to the rapid advancement of shipbuilding and offshore-structure production technologies and an exponential increase in the size of the block units of ship structures. Therefore, to ensure safety during the transportation and turnover of large blocks, it is important to determine the structural integrity and position of lifting lugs. However, because the manufacturing cost and availability of lugs are important considerations, low cost and easily obtainable steel compositions of grades different from those of the blocks are often used as alternatives. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a lifting-lug metal on the physical properties of a base metal in a dissimilar welding between the base metal and lifting lug. The effect was evaluated by observing the metal microstructures and determining the hardness and dilution values on the cross-sectional surface of the lifting lug. According to the results of the metal microstructures, impact, hardness, and emission spectrochemical analysis at the surface from where the lug was removed confirmed that the chemical composition of the lifting-lug metal did not influence the physical properties of the base metal.

In this paper, an application program is made to simulate the behavior of a ship block under various crane works and to generate data of lu9 reactions and wire tensions. The program is based on a CAD program, Pro/ENGINEER. A ship is composed of more than 100 ship blocks. In order to lift, move, turn, or put a ship block at a convenient location fur assembling, workers in a shipyard use cranes, wires, and lugs temporarily attached to the block. In the procedure of lifting and turning a ship block with a crane, it is important to find suitable lug points and wires to do the handling efficiently and prevent accidents. Evaluation of forces in lugs and wires is necessary, but the problem is rather complex due to nonlinearity and nonuniqueness. In the present development, the nonlinear system of equations for quasi-static equilibriums is derived and a Newton type solution method is adopted to solve the system. The importance of initial estimates to the solution is illustrated and two approaches are utilized and compared. With the program developed, users can assign lug points on the CAD model by mouse and choose various linking devices at each crane point. Users can try to simulate the motion for any prescribed conditions, compare the motion of the block and the reactions and choose appropriate lug points and the type of wires and lugs.
