Modern passenger cruise ships are also from structural point of view very complex objects that vary very much from one design to another. Hence assessment of such a kind of ship is difficult if not impossible to do only by application of conventional rule formulas since they are usually developed and suitable to apply on similar structural arrangements. Therefore assessment of modern passenger cruise ships has to be done combining applicable rule formulas with extensive use of various types of direct calculations. A brief introduction on structural design assessment procedures as foreseen by Lloyd's Register Ship Rules (hereafter Rules) is described in the paper.
