Overview
From system design and upgrades to risk assessments and damage investigations.
Our focus on Structural Design
FKAB prioritizes each customer’s unique needs from the ground up, offering naval architecture consultancy for any requirements. FKABs designers are always updated in their field, ready to provide the perfect solution for you. Amongst other surrounding aspects, we look at:
Hull design
The hull is a critical component influencing a ship’s hydrodynamic performance and fuel efficiency, making it a vital aspect of achieving carbon neutral shipping. Designing an optimized hull involves a delicate balance of multiple factors, each contributing to the vessel’s overall efficiency and operational capability.
System design
Implementing smart systems that monitor and optimize energy use can lead to significant savings, making energy efficiency a critical focus area in sustainable shipbuilding. For example this entails waste heat recovery, intelligent ventilation systems, onboard equipment and usage of Shore power.
On-board Equipment
FKAB helps you integrate high-quality, durable components to ensure optimal system performance. This while decreasing the need for frequent maintenance or replacements. We look at material selection, energy-efficient components, propulsion systems and integrated power systems. Also, harmonizing engines, gearboxes, and power management systems. A well-matched drivetrain, including the engine and transmission, contributes to smooth operation and efficiency.
Thorough Calculations
Our naval architect consultant team is both experienced and creative in producing sustainable, practical solutions to suit your requirements. We undertake design calculations in for example conversions, cranes, Ro-Ro equipment and mooring arrangements.
We are experienced in stability calculation and can supply our clients with detailed and cost-effective stability books. As a consultant and naval architect we have a long experience with for example inclining tests, ship weight and intact- and damage stability. Our calculations are always thorough, carried out by competent, knowledgeable engineers.
