This chapter presents the various measures commonly used to control buckling of ship structural members. The reliability basis of ship structural safety is introduced. The concept of safety margin for the buckling strength of a structural member is explained. The role of Classification societies in controlling failure of ship structural members is explained. The deleterious effects of deterioration of strength of ship structural members with time are clarified. The variation of strength and probability of failure with time is illustrated. The effect of corrosion on the flexural rigidity and buckling of ship strength members are explained. Linear and exponential equations are used for modeling the variation of the rate of corrosion with time.
