Lightweight construction has always been of great significance in shipbuilding. Especially for high speed craft savings in weight are absolutely essential as engine power is a limiting factor. Given careful selection and application of design and calculation methods, materials as well as of manufacturing processes the designers have to come to the limits. Reducing the weight of ship structures increases the risk of under dimensioning with respect to possible failure modes. This paper shall give an overview of typical light weight damages and their causes.
