Summary
General principles of design are introduced. The consequences of local and global failure are discussed. The use of codes, in particular ISO 19906, is described. Probabilistic methods and limit-states design for ice loading are emphasized. The Titanic disaster is addressed, emphasizing the cause of failure as being the result of operational failures, not the rivets. High local pressures (high-pressure zones) are associated with the failure of the rivets and plating.
