Your most up-to-date course on Marine Structural Failures

Practical training for identifying root causes of failures and mitigating future risks

In just two days gain essential information of how increased awareness and active monitoring of structural integrity can improve ship life.  

Gain a comprehensive overview of major causes of failures and key prevention techniques to reduce repair costs and delays.  

Key specialists and experienced speakers will provide useful and thorough advice on the latest detection methods used to prevent failures and improve ship efficiency.

Throughout this seminar you will: 

  • Understand root causes of failures
  • Analyse factors affecting structural integrity – wave loads, vibration and
  • Practical learning through case studies and workshops
  • Consider reporting and investigation techniques for effective incident handling

Highlights of this year's Marine Structural Failures and Ship Design Assessment course include:

  • Fatigue workshop examining the warning signs for early detection of structural weakness and monitoring technologies
  • Ship stability case study session looking at case studies to demonstrate how to learn from previous failures through improved watertight integrity and goal-based stability
  • Collision case study looking at residual strength and ways to decrease costs
  • Coatings and corrosion session examining the challenges of coatings delivery for more efficient protection procedures

Featured session: The MSC Napoli - an in-depth analysis

One of the co-authors of the post-incident report from the Marine Accident Investigation Bureau and the Former UK Secretary of State Representative at the time of the incident will lead this session to consider:

  • How did it happen?
  • Could it have been prevented?
  • What was the post-incident procedure?
  • What can be learnt from the incident and aftermath?

"Extremely useful and informative compared to other fatigue courses, it is more practical rather than theoretical"
