Abstract Structural response of modern large passenger vessels is fairly complicated due to discontinuities created by open spaces, but also due to balcony openings. These two facts result in non-linear strain distribution along the depth of the hull girder. During recent years steel sandwich panels have been developed to decrease the structural weight, centre of gravity of the ship and also to ease the production of the ships through modularity. In order to make decks, the sandwich panels need to be joined. In order to implement these panels to load carrying deck structures of the modern passenger ship their influence on the structural response of the hull girder needs to be investigated. Therefore, the present investigates the interaction between hull girder of passenger ship and steel sandwich decks. Sandwich decks with both symmetrical and production friendly non-symmetrical joints are considered and compared to the traditional decks made from stiffened plates. Both deflection and normal stresses are considered as the response.
