Whilst loading cargo’s there has always been debates regarding the strength of hatchcovers between captains, surveyors, classification societies and naval architects. MBM are now providing the opportunity to have a 2D wireframe analysis of any hatchcover or tweendeck to assess the hatch or tweendeck capability to load a specific cargo with its small footprint. The results of the 2D wireframe analysis can be presented to Class/Owner/Surveyors prior to loading or onboard during the loading to assist in gaining permission to continue the load of a cargo.
