Accidental Loading

Accidents will happen because they are accidents. Design philosophy is to prevent an accident developing into a catastrophe. Design to:
Maintain usability of escape ways Maintain integrity of shelter areas Maintain global load bearing capacity Protection of the environment

Design Philosophy

Some typical accidental events on offshore structures are :

Ship Impact Dropped Object Blast & Fire Loading

Accidental Loading Design

Accidental events generally involve large plastic strains.


To analyze and design against accidental events requires software tools capable of predicting:
Dynamic inertial loading * Geometric non- linearity Material non- linearity

* API RP 2FB recommends the use of dynamic analysis for blast loading

Geometric and Material Nonlinearities

Collapse allows for hinge formation at any point along member length by sub dividing the member into sub-elements (maximum of 20, default is 8) and monitor the stress level at each sub-element. Not restricted to hinge formation at member end an center this pre defines the failure mechanism

Beam Elements

Collapse predicts the gradual development of plastic hinge through a member cross section by: Dividing the cross-section into sub-areas and monitoring the stress levels in each sub-area. By default tubular cross sections are divided into 12 sub-areas.

Joint Flexibility Distortion of chord cross section due to forces in the brace and chord. Particularly important for old structures where joint cans were not used. Collapse has two methods implemented to predict joint flexibility.

These being: (1) Fesslers Approach (linear) (2) MSL Approach (non-linear)

Dropped Object Analysis Certain locations such as crane loading and drilling areas are subject to dropped objects. The platform should survive the initial impact from a dropped object and meet the post-impact criteria to survive a one year environmental load in addition to normal operating conditions. Dropped object analysis also required to determine safe lift heights for platform modification/repair to avoid production shutdown which can be costly.

Accidental Loading Design

Primary objectives for blast resistant design are: Personnel safety Controlled Shutdown Financial Considerations Environmental considerations API RP 2FB specifications requires a Ductility Level Blast (DLB) design for low probability, high consequence extreme events. A DLB design requires a dynamic analysis to accounts for inertia loading and a large deflection analysis to account for geometric and material non-linear effects. A DLB design is required for temporary refuge, safe muster areas and escape routes..

Blast Analysis

Blast analysis requires definition of Blast Wave:: Two Types of Blast Waves
Shock Wave 1. Sudden pressure rise. - Explosions from materials in liquid or solid form - Extremely energetic vapor cloud explosion
