Re:Center of weight – how to implement

[MICHAEL KERR]

Hi Baran,
for example, mild steel weights 7850 kg/m3 so it would be entered in the Density column as 7.850 , (lets say plywood weights 368 kg/m2 so it would be 0.368) , if your steel thickness is 10mm that would be entered in the Thickness column as 10.00 after you enter your density and thickness press Enter so its locked in, then go to Design Hydrostatics, you will see a list of all your Layers, they will include Layer Name, Area, Thickness, Weight and the 3 COGs, this will be automatically transfered to Load Cases under Lightship. Let me know how you go ?
