Thank you Mr. Ay for your answer,
Does this mean that in every support location there is a pre-defined displacement? But how can I get the exact value of the pre-defined displacement for every support at different location?
A hogging value of +0.79mm/m, can I use the middle of the ship as my point of reference?
For example, a support#1 located 3000mm from middle of the ship, then +0.79mm/m x 3m = 2.37mm (pre-defined displacement at support#1 due to hogging). Is this correct?
And for sagging value of -0.65mm/m, does my point of reference is also at the middle of the ship?
then the support#1 pre-defined displacement due to sagging is -0.65mm/m x 3m = -1.95mm. Is this correct?
This mean that I need to calculate the displacement(pre-defined) for each supports because they are in different locations?
Kindly please give me more enlightenment. Thank you.
