The strength of transversal structure of the ship has a great effect on the safety of ship. Shipswill experience conditions that affect the strength of the ships structure. A deck-container ships are the ships that all container are loaded on deck such as MV. Khendaga Nusantara series ships. The transversal strength of the ships is loaded mainly by the weight of cargolaying on deck.. This research aims to determine the transverse strength of a deck-container ship due to the all container loads on deck. The research was done by usingfinite element method throughmodeling transverse ship structure, the simulation is conducted by varying the amount and lay-out of containers on dec). The loads appliedto the model are side loads, bottomloads, and deck loads in according to BKI rules. The results shows that the stress that occurred in the web frame was 140,63 N/mm2due to the placement of the entire container on the deck(full loading). For ship structure response, a deformation of 2,86 mm occurred in the web frame area at maximum loading. Stress ratio that occurs in all ship’s structuredoes not exceed 1 in other words the working stress does not exceed the allowedstress according to BKI rules.
Currently, the ship container generation has allowed for the carriage of containers on deck up to four tiers high. The container loads in tiers high affect on deck structure. Consequently, an insert plate is used and located on the top of the ship deck structure for placing the container corner fitting. Sometimes container fitting is placed between longitudinal deck beams under without supporting construction such as pillar or carling. Therefore, this matter should be analyzed to obtain the strength behavior of the insert plate. This study describes the strength analysis using the finite element method (FEM) through ANSYS software. Based on the simulation results, the maximum Von Mises stress of the insert plate was obtained exceeds 181 N/mm2 and 235 N/mm2 in the initial condition, whereas the insert plate could support only 15% loads per corner fitting (three tiers high). Then, the thickness addition of the insert plate until 24 mm reduced the stress, however, the reduction was a small magnitude. By adding two carling construction is similar to the size of a transverse deck beam, under the insert plate, the stress was obtained 138.54 N/mm2.
