Objective
The objective of the project is to pave the way for the realisation of a new generation of fast (50kn), large (>160 m), cost efficient and safe ships (monohulls) based on high-tensile steel with yield strength of 690 MPa. Specific objectives/targets - vital for the European shipbuilding industry (= 200.000 employees) - are:
a. Develop/design new structural concepts (higher valued ships) apt for HTS690;
b. Reduce ship weight by 40%;
c. Reduce building costs by 20%;
d. Reduce building time of the hull by 15-20%;
e. Improve fuel efficiency;
f. Reduce of emissions (CO2) by 15%;
g. Increase efficiency and decrease operating costs by 30-40%;
h. Improve new manufacturing techniques (laser welding, bonding);
j. Introduce new maintenance, inspection and corrosion protection systems.
