Sea Shed Test and Evaluation Program.
Abstract
The purpose of this report is to document the SEA SHED Test and Evaluation Program from design of a removable between deck conversion system for containerships through prototype fabrication to finally, testing in a terminal/stimulated shipboard environment. Major subsystems, auxiliary/ancillary equipment, and the compatibility of SEA SHED with existing container handling transport systems was examined through multiple iterations of fundamental cargo handling functions. The report demonstrates the viability of the SEA SHED system to include both facility of fabrication and system performance in accordance with design criteria. A major redesign effort is not indicated. Minor enhancements of specific subsystems are recommended.
