Abstract

In the last decade, the use of HDPE as an alternative material for boat is increasingly. At least there are several reasons for using HDPE as substitute for FRP material, from zero corrosion, marine growth resistance, and the most important is the issues of environmentally friendly (recyclable). However, the use of HDPE as boat structures must meet shipbuilding standards, which are regulated in Classification rules, and Biro Klasifikasi Indonesia (BKI) as the only national class does not yet have detailed rules regarding of HDPE. The study was conducted to see the feasibility of HDPE as boat structures, starting from rules gap analysis (ISO 12215-5, IRS polyethylene rules, BKI rules small vessel), verification of the strength of boat construction and the effect of thermal on HDPE sheet using Finite Element Method by commercial software. The results showed that HDPE as an alternative material can be used as a boat/small vessel with the global stress results in test model at 15 MPa in transverse structures and 8 MPa in longitudinal structures (allowable stress 0.8Fy) both sagging and hogging conditions. As for thermal effects, HDPE panels are tested up to 70°C and produce elastic deformation up to 50mm for 1m frame spacing.
