The report describes the conceptual studies which were carried out, and the development of the Preliminary Design, for the 180 Ton Capacity Cargo Transporter Barge. Conceptual design studies were carried out primarily to determine the optimum Barge concept; in particular, variations in hull form, propulsion/maneuvering system and cargo handling system were examined. The Preliminary Design which has been prepared includes a description of the major Barge subsystems, a summary of all significant design analyses performed, and a set of standard preliminary design drawings.
