The button runs LR Pt 3 Ch 4 longitudinal strength analysis and sets F_B/F_D from the computed hull-girder stresses (not an assumption).
Profile Filter Preference
Dropdowns show only profiles where Z_section ≥ Z_req AND safety ≤ margin limit AND slenderness OK. YOU pick from the filtered list.

Intermediate Longitudinal Insertion
Inserts an intermediate longitudinal at the midpoint between every adjacent side-shell longitudinal pair whose midpoint falls inside the FSICR Frame Ice Strengthening zone (Reg. 4.4.1). Click again to refresh after changing inputs (existing intermediates with the "ice" tag are removed and re-inserted). Inner side, decks, and bottom shell are NOT affected. Profile inherits from the lower neighbour.
No ice intermediates inserted.

Inner side extends 1800 → 16350 mm, three regions:
Deep Tank (1800–12900 mm) — LR Pt 4 Ch 1 Sec 9.2.1, Table 1.9.1 (deep tank):
· Plating: t = 0.004·s·f·√(ρ·h₄/1.025) + 2.5 mm, min 7.5 mm (L ≥ 90)
· Stiffener: Z = ρ·s·k·h₄·l_e² / (22·γ·(ω₁+ω₂+2)) cm³, γ=1.4, ω₁=ω₂=1.0 (bracketed)
· h₄ = max(tank_top − z, (overflow − z)/2)
Void (12900–15300 mm) — Sec 9 min (non-WT); Coaming (15300–16350 mm) — Pt 3 Ch 11.

Sec 8.3.1 — Centre girder depth: d_DB = max(28·B + 205·√T, min(50·B, 2000), 760) mm.
Sec 8.3.2 (last sentence) — d_DB for thickness: The thickness may be determined using d_DB without applying the minimum depths (b) and (c) from 8.3.1. Tool now uses formula (a) only, i.e. d_DB(a) = 28·B + 205·√T, even if the as-built IB is taller. Both values are shown in the dim column.
Sec 8.3.5 — Side girders (longitudinally framed ships): One side girder is to be fitted where B > 14 m, and two girders on each side of the centreline where B > 21 m. The girders are to extend as far forward and aft as practicable and shall have thickness not less than (0.0075·d_DB + 1)·√k mm, min 6.0 mm. A vertical stiffener (≥ 100 mm depth, thickness = girder t) is to be arranged midway between floors.
Sec 8.3.8 — Duct keel: Replaces centre girder; side plates t ≥ greater of: (a) (0.008·d_DB + 2)·√k mm, or (b) deep-tank formula (Tablo 1.9.1: 0.004·s·f·√(ρ·h₄·k/1.025) + 2.5) if duct interconnected with side tank / cofferdam. h₄ measured from (z_bot + H/3) to top of side tank, OR half to overflow. Min 6.0 mm (Sec 8.3.8) & 7.5 mm (Tablo 1.9.1, L≥90). Sides spaced ≤ 2.0 m apart.
7. Decks — LR Pt 4 Ch 1 Sec 4 (Tables 1.4.1 – 1.4.4)
Stringer Deck (inside ballast tank — Sec 9 deep tank)
Tween Deck (void space — minimum platform)
Upper Deck (Strength/Weather — Table 1.4.1 plate + 1.4.3 long.)
Hatch Coaming Top (Pt 3 Ch 11 — deck box closure)
Baltic Laker — actual layout: Stringer deck is inside ballast tank (Sec 9 deep tank rules apply). Tween deck is in the void space above tank top (no design load — minimums only). Upper deck is the weather/strength deck.

Stringer (deep tank) plate: t = 0.004·s·f·√(ρ·h₄/1.025)+2.5 mm (Table 1.9.1 DT, min 7.5 mm L≥90)
Stringer (deep tank) long: Z = ρ·s·k·h₄·l_e²/(22·γ·(ω₁+ω₂+2)) cm³ (γ=1.4, ω₁=ω₂=1)
Tween (void) plate: Table 1.4.8 minimum (6.5 mm for L≥90, 5.5 mm for L<90)
Tween (void) long: No design load — minimum stiffening per Sec 9 / Pt 3 Ch 3
Upper deck (strength/weather, long): t = max[0.001·s₁·(0.059·L₁+7)·√(F_D/k_L), 0.00083·s₁·√(L·k)+2.5]
Upper deck long (outside openings): Z = 0.043·s·k·h_T1·l_e²·F₁ cm³ (Table 1.4.3)
