Improvement of requirements to glazing elements on small craft and yachts
Abstract
The paper discusses the issues of improving the requirements for the glazing of yachts and small craft. The data on glazing materials and general patterns of thickness calculation are given. Based on the example of widely used foreign standards and rules of classification societies, approaches to the use of glazing in various zones and its characteristics are analyzed. Comparative calculations were performed for a craft with a length of 24 m using various methods. The article is illustrated with practical examples of structural solutions for glazing and closures on foreign-built ships. The ideology of the Load lines code is touched upon, differences with modern standards are identified, and recommendations are made to improve the domestic regulatory framework.
