4.12 Loading Conditions and Hydrostatics
From the menu View->Load Conditions… a dialog can be opened to handle
loading conditions and hydrostatic values. This dialog can be used for
calculation of total weight and center of gravity for various loading conditions
and calculation of hydrostatic values for loading conditions.
The results can be printed through a canned report, and the results are stored
in a table and can be used in a custom Crystal Report.
The Load conditions dialog contains tables for input of values to define the
loading conditions. In the area 1 in the figure above, each row represent a
loading condition. To define a loading condition, add a line to this table and
enter name of condition (LoadCase) and description. The other fields in this
table will be calculated as more information is given on the loads and
hydrostatics.
When a specific loading condition is selected in the Load Case table, the
Weights table (area 2 in the figure above) can be used to define the loads for
this condition. Each line in the loading condition represents a single load for
the selected Load Case and may be of the type Tank, Load or Weight group.
The Hydrostatic Calculations list (area 3 in figure above) gives a summary of
the results of the loading calculations. For the hydrostatic results to be
calculated, the Hydrostatic button must be pushed for input of hydrostatic
values.
