New integrated software system

Building on strength

ShipRight - LR's advanced procedures for design, construction and lifetime ship care - has now been enhanced with an entirely new set of integrated software tools: ShipRightIs.

ShipRight® can save users time and money by providing: • single input of technical data into a common database • user-friendly calculation tools for concept design and design assessment • automatic generation of finite element models in accordance with ShipRight procedures • facilities for data exchange with ship design systems using the latest STEP technology • improved structural monitoring and maintenance planning.

ShipRight procedures enhance ship safety - giving a better understanding of ship structural performance through experience and knowledge gained from a distillation of theoretical analysis, experimental testing and in-service monitoring.

ShipRightIS provides a comprehensive set of software tools, helping you to: • plan and achieve your design objectives • generate concept designs • define and update structural details • check design scantlings for compliance with LR's Rules and ShipRight procedures.

Our new ShipRight and ShipRight,s brochures give you more details. For your free copies and further information, contact your local LR office or Jack
