Still-Water Bending Moment (IACS UR S11)

IACS UR S11 permissible still-water bending moment (hogging and sagging) as a function of L, B and Cb.

Formula, assumptions, and limits

The sign convention treats sagging negative (deck in compression, keel in tension). C1 is the IACS wave coefficient depending on L (see Symbol legend). Loading-computer still-water moments must not exceed these values.
