Learning Objectives:
On completion of this unit, the learner will achieve the following:
• Understand how Shear forces and Bending moment arise in a vessel floating in still water & wave profile.
• Produce Shear force & Bending Moment diagrams for Box-shaped vessel floating on even keel in still
water.
Hogging and Sagging in still water:
• When a ship is floating in still water conditions the hull will experience longitudinal deflections
created by the uneven distribution of weight forces and buoyancy forces along the length.
Hogging and Sagging on wave profile:
• At sea longitudinal stresses will be increased and decreased in a cyclical manner as waves pass
along the ships length.
• It is the responsibility of those loading the ship t ensure that the longitudinal stresses likely to be
experienced are maintained within acceptable limits.

Weight, Buoyancy, Load, Shear Force and Bending moment curve
Example on Shear forces in still water condition :
CASE : a
i. Consider a Box-shaped vessel of uniform construction having three holds of equal length.
ii. The light displacement of the vessel is 9000Tonnes.
iii. It is floating on an even keel.
iv. Since Weight= Buoyancy there will not be any Shearing force and bending moments.
CASE : b
6000Tonnes of bulk cargo is now loaded into No.2 Hold and is trimmed level.
• The excess of weight forces and buoyancy forces creating the shearing forces.
• The shearing forces are the vertical forces that tend to cause the ship to be sliced into different parts.
