One2three Naval Architects: Designers of Monohulls, Catamarans and Trimarans
Structural Design
One2three staff have extensive experience in designing lightweight aluminium structures for high-speed craft, with over 170 vessels designed and no reported structural failures.
A typical One2three structural design:
- Utilises specially designed aluminium extrusions for weight saving and rigidity
- Meets the standards set by major classification societies
One2three use the following to analyse vessel structure:
- Multiframe for three-dimensional interactions
- Finite-element analysis on the global loads for large vessels
One2three also have experience designing in steel and composites.
Production-Oriented
One2three focus on designing for production in order to minimise shipyard cost and time. One2three use Workshop in the initial stages for:
- Hull-stringer fairing
- Development of hull-shell plating
Detailed construction design is carried out using the
leading-edge ShipConstructor suite of software. The
benefits of this include:
- A high level of accuracy by checking complex three-dimensional interactions
- Output of three-dimensional production drawings and bills of materials
- Automatic nesting which gives significant savings on materials through optimisation of the nests
- Modularisation of vessel construction
