Methods for calculation of design loads for high-speed vessels are investigated. The influence of operational restrictions on design loads is emphasized. Relevant operational criteria for high-speed displacement vessels are discussed. Procedures and criteria for numerical calculation of operational limits are incomplete and should be further investigated. Operational limits and design loads for a 60 m catamaran are calculated on the basis of linear strip theory. Non-linear effects on design loads are assessed from calculations in regular waves. Simplified formulae commonly used by classification societies for prediction of operational limits seem to over-predict the reduction of motions and wave loads at reduced speed. When operational limits typically given by the shipmaster or the operator are used, the design loads found by direct calculations are comparable with design loads given by classification societies. For vertical bending moment and torsion, the use of active foils is found to increase the linear loads. Owing to reduced motions, the foils reduce the non-linear loads and hence the total loads. The effect of non-linear horizontal loads is not investigated but can be important for transverse bending moment.

Abstract This paper deals with the determination of compressive strength of concrete. Cubes, cylinders and re-used test beams were tested. The concrete beams were first subjected to three-point or fourpoint bending tests and then used for determination of the compressive strength of concrete. Some concrete beams were reinforced, while others had no reinforcement. Accuracy of the experiments and calculations was verified in a non-linear analysis.
